That pic of them side by side just reminds me of the story Ben told of running into Bale at a costume store.
 
When I see the cowls side by side I think I'd have to go with the Bale cowl.

Even going off that picture (which is the worst Batfleck pic imo), I'd still go with Affleck's. No contest.

It reminds of those comic panels where you see a mainstream character and his/her parallel universe counterpart having the same experience.
 
There is a new Batman and it's looking good, but we don't have to automatically say that everything about the last one was beneath the new one. Bale was fantastic, and I enjoyed the trilogy. :up:

I completely agree, but I still think that batsuit was atrocious.

Yeah, the best of Lindy Hemming costumes is the Batman Begins suit, but even that pales in comparison to Wilkinson's version.

Yes.. Though, the one thing that didn't work for me with the "Begin's" suit were the gloves.. Black dish washing rubber gloves..

im gonna go here and say that, though in general i like the batflecksuit more,

i really really dig this picture of bale as batman. the neck area of the cowl is a bit of a mess with bale, but it fit it's time and it works.

batbale was a great trilogy and i'm very happy how it went, though i still feel sad about ledger's untimely death and the idea we might have been robbed of a fitting role in 'rises', though i'm not sure how he would have fitted in since the joker is not a char to be taken lightly, and it might have become too much. I think there could have been a glorious 4th nolan batbale movie starring the return of the joker. 'Return of the Dark Knight',
and quite frankly, i really would have liked the idea of a Nolan-Snyder Superman vs Batman combo in this with the joker present.

in any case, that's not what happened and i'm happy with that with nolan, batman finally got a decent movie depiction. And it seems Snyder is following this trend and we're in for a lot of fun.

and agreed to the rest; there's no need to bury nolan now after worshipping him first.

even if batflecksnyder movie is better, that doesn't make balebatnolan a worse movie. it rather makes snyder's universe even more impressive being able to surpass nolan's story. it ain't no easy task to bring a 'new' batman universe whilst up to the task to make it atleast as good as nolan's ones since he set the standard so much higher, and at the same time mix it with superman.

i applaud snyder's efforts with a loud applause, and take ayer to that, too, in treating us with an additional batman-joker story in SS.

It would be paradise if a really, really good production company would produce a really, really good Batman & Superman video game that compliments the BVS movie, Man of Steel, Suicide Squad, and leave room for an upcoming Batman Solo movie, all along not forgetting to wind in an opening for a Arkham game or perhaps even an Arkham movie.

It's a lot to ask for, but if done correctly, it would be one hell of a treat.

anyway, i'm drifting off.
wonderfull suit.
 
I liked the BB suit the most out of the TDK trilogy. It made Bale look really huge. Affleck's suit is both giant and functional..and looks similar to the one in the comics. DC should make Wilkinson design all the costumes :D
 
The Begins Batsuit was sexy af.

I think what went wrong is they overdesigned the TDK/RISES suit. There's not nearly as many rubber segments on the Begins suit.

The Batfleck suit is simple looking at first glance (a tight grey overlay, oversized muscles) but further inspection reveals a leathery pattern, even what appears to be veins on the suit.

It's the spookiest Batsuit of them all, and suits the character without looking like cheap cosplay, or a Michelin tire :D
 
It has been my favorite movie batsuit, up to very recently. :cwink:
 
The evolutionary record suggests that the transition from vigilante to superhero is observed in the adaptation of trunks.~

Heh ....
Sounds logical to me . :btf: :cwink:

I still don't get how the pectoral are was approved by the costume department, considering it's such an east fix.
And don't get me started on the legs. :facepalm:
Well it does work for that:

Broseph will say it best for me.

Yass.

I was soooo bummed when Nolan changed it in DK. Realism be damned.

Same, considering the only change it really needed was getting rid of those damned clasps on the cape.
