He'd be too busy trying to come up with a scientific explanation for Rorschach's mask.

The comic has a scientific explanation for it. It's connected to Doctor Manhattan's arrival just like many other non-real advancements in other technological areas in the world.

Nolan isn't the only one who wanted their weird comic-book stuff to make some kind of sense. Alan Moore smartly considered the changes that a real-world physical god arriving earlier in time would cause in history. The 1985 in Moore's Watchmen is different than the real world's 1985 because of a change in earlier history that effected a change through to modern history.

It's almost ready. I feel like a little boy waiting for cookies to come out of the oven.

I hope one of the tweaks to the Superman suit is taking the chainmail texture off of the red parts of the suit (S, boots) and also the "belt" buckle.

Agreed.

I also like this one, it looks kind of like the CA costume. I'd want something little a more durable looking for a movie, though.

I posted this in one of the old threads before. For some reason, people jumped to conclusion that I was interested in the material used rather than the design of the costume. I like it.

 

[GreySpider]

yea thats a brilliant design imho too, would be super stoked if they used something similar

if i remember the comic...the mask came from a dress that Manhattan made for one of his women...somehow Rorschach got it.

This definitely looks like what Kevin Smith was hinting at.

I dig this. I think the fabrics obviously need a slight updating. Not a big fan of the sculpted cowl though. It seems to clash with the rest of the suit IMO. Would love to see this played around with in photoshop.

 

[Uroboric Forms]

Would prefer if it was Tim Sale inspired

Tim Sale has a very distinctive style, but the Batsuit isn't really unique.

^ Just the mask is

But I think THIS is the most movie-ready cosplay out there. Someone should manip the trunks off it to see how it looks.

That isn't a photomanipped Origins suit?

Good, we can finally put to rest the idea that Gal Gadot will only be seen as Diana Prince.

I seriously can't wait to see these. Hope we get some pics in January.

I fully expect Snyder to kick the crap out of Nolan when it comes to the visuals of Batman. With the exception of that one rooftop shot in BEGINS after he first takes down Falcone, I was pretty underwhelmed with Nolan's "iconic" shots of Batman. They seemed to always be more about the city around him, and "Look, we went into a helicopter for this one!".

I think you just nailed the problem with the visual aesthetic about the Nolan trilogy. Batman Begins is really the only film of the three that embraces the iconography of the Batman silhouette and its associated images. Batman standing on a ledge, Batman grappling through the air, Bruce opening up that cabinet and revealing the suit...all the type of images that would appear in a comicbook.

I love Man of Steel, but I think it's a flawed film. One thing it NAILS, however, is visual atmosphere. Even the film's harshest critics admit that Snyder knows how to shoot Superman and action (though the color palette does leave a bit to be desired, at times). He can be a truly great director, he wishes to be. He only lacks the right script to show him the way.

Agreed. The wait till February is going to be insane!

Batman also doesn't wear a "patterned" suit, so it's kind of a moot point. He's never worn anything really resembling "camoflague". Well, at least in the modern age, outside Kenner's action figure lines.

The "patterned" suit was one option tested by the FAS; monotone gray was another and the monotone gray tested well... as did black, i.e., gray suit, black cape etc., et viola, the traditional batsuit realistically explained and supported with perfectly legitimate scientific proof, so it's kinda of a valid point.

That would be a great way to kick off the new year.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Maybe even getting a peek at the new Batmobile and/or any other vehicles would be awesome too.

I honestly can't wait to see Snyder's take on everything Batman: the car, the cave, the gadgets, the costumes, and on and on.

I salivate at the idea of that. Given his attention to detail and use of darker characters, it's going to look truly amazing. t:

Was bored and decided to alter it a bit to give it a more cinematic feel. Nothing special though.

^ Like it, except for the REALLY dark grey. Might as well be black. I'd aim for a slighty darker grey than the original pic, which is a little light for my tastes.
