BvS Should they change the costume for the sequel?

[Indy]

they need to make it more like the classic suit

 

[ANTOINE X]

yep definetly!

 

[Super Kal]

like what?

• brighter color scheme
• lose the abundant use of "S"s
• lower neckline
• get rid of the ridiculous symbol on the belt
• make the trunks actual trunks and not a fashion statement

 

[Mutagen]

Personally, I never had a problem with the suit. However, If I were Singer, I would make the changes to appeal more to the fans.

 

[Gotham22]

Definitely change the neckline.
Make the S on his chest bigger and the yellow S on the cape.

 

[Dark Knight]

I've always liked Jim Lee's Superman... I wish someone if the future could get something similar to this

I'm all for using Jim Lees designs as the concept design for the suit in MOS!

 

[Clark Kent]

Isn't there already a thread like this in the spoilers section?

 

[ANTOINE X]

• brighter color scheme
• lose the abundant use of "S"s
• lower neckline
• get rid of the ridiculous symbol on the belt
• make the trunks actual trunks and not a fashion statement

I Don't remember and I dont know why I ask you that question. I do agree that superman returns suit needs to be changed but more especially that brownish red'

For the love of all things good, ditch those stupid trunks already. Those things really do look ******ed on live-action actors. Someone else nailed it when they compared the trunks look to a "cross-dressers' convention." The trunks serve ZERO purpose other than a colour-breakup, but that can be achieved other ways that DON'T look asinine.

 

[ad101867]

yes. Change the damn suit to an updated materials of the classic one:

THAT pic looks fine (other than the trunks, which are ridiculous). But THIS one....

. . . this has got to be one of the most ******ed-looking Superman photos of all time.

 

[ad101867]

In other word something like this

Gosh, you mean something like . . . Superman. Who woulda thunk it??

 

[Clark Kent]

. . . this has got to be one of the most ******ed-looking Superman photos of all time.[/quote]

Why?

 

[Nightwing1977]

. . . this has got to be one of the most ******ed-looking Superman photos of all time.

I disagree. That is how Supes normally pose. I wish they released that first instead of the original one that was first release. It wasn't a flattering pose. The one you post was much better.

 

[Clark Kent]

The one you post was much better.

Agreed, even though the cape looks funny, IMO.

 

[honest george]

Meh, the only change I'd make is to brighten up the colors just a wee bit. Not too much. The buckle I can take or leave.

I agree, the muted colors remind me of the 40's Superman color scheme, which I like. The neckline can change but I really prefer the smaller "S" shield; it bugs me when artists like Alex Ross draw it bigger than the character's chest.

 

[ad101867]

. . . this has got to be one of the most ******ed-looking Superman photos of all time.

Why?

Come on, are you serious?? Look at the stance, and look at how his thighs swell wider than his upper body. He looks like a complete dufus. Hardly heroic. Hardly commanding. Hardly the colossal presence Superman is supposed to be.

I disagree. That is how Supes normally pose.

You mean he normally poses like a dork?

I wish they released that first instead of the original one that was first release. It wasn't a flattering pose. The one you post was much better.

You've gotta be kidding me. If that was the release pic, fans would've thought it was an ad for Superhero Movie.

Really, just the costume design alone is enough for WB to reboot the franchise minus Bryan Singer.

 

[The Shadow]

Darker colors, bigger emblem, no symobol on belt and more muscular. Routh looks puny, put fake muscles in the costume.

 

[Rishi]

The most important thing for me is the size of the shield. after that, adding a yellow shield onto the cape, and after that changing the neckline.

 

[ariellem]

Think about those face-averaging things producing pretty people. We need an average of the Superman costumes.

 

[NUFFSAID2004]

yes. Change the damn suit to an updated materials of the classic one:

Take out the damn muscle suit and let him get as big as Reeve did at the end of filming for STM

I say the top and bottom pics look perfect. I'm with you, brother. Superman's such an iconic character that doesn't need all this stupid tweeking. Leave well enough alone. He's timeless!

 

[The son becomes]

I thought the costume looked great in the movie but felt it didn't work so well in the promotional photography. I assume the suit was designed to work with modern filming techniques but perhaps they need to have an adjusted suit for still photographs. There's something about the red, yellow and blue that strikes a chord with people and these should be brought out for the marketing shots, in order to work best with this medium.

 

[robzass]

Look, costume changes in other super hero flicks don't bother me. Superman's costume however should always stay the same no matter the time period. It's just too classic to change.

 

[Ultra Lantern]

I don't think they need to change the costume for the sequel.

 

[El Payaso]

I don't think they need to change the costume for the sequel.

Me neither. BUt the thread was actually talking about SR's sequel.



Btw, on that very note...

they need to make it more like the classic suit

• get rid of the ridiculous symbol on the belt
• make the trunks actual trunks and not a fashion statement

Oh, the mirth. t:

 

[Micromind]

For sequel to MOS, please add a proper golden yellow belt, and get rid of seams and piping on legs, back and the gauntlets. and make the Blue color of suit more bright, and make the cape a little short.
