I like black belt and big leather pouches, the suit is nice in general, it's just the buckle that sucks.
Me no likey.What do you guys and girls think of the Smallville Season 11 Batsuit?
Perfect ****ing cowl right there .By the way, here's the original photo.

Hey guys. This is my first post in these forums and I know this is slightly off topic but I just wanted to say this...
Thank you all. Seriously. I have read through this entire Batsuit discussion(yes, including all 40 pages of the old thread) and I have to say its been a FANTASTIC discussion. You've all(save for perhaps one snarky idividual who doesn't seem to contribute much) offered great and interesting insights at one point or another so major props. This discussion made me want to register so I could participate.
I am honestly proud to call you guys my fellow Batfans. I look forward to contributing.
He doesn't just wear black. He's been depicted with the blue suit just as much as the black.Actually it does make sense if you use actual science. Midnight blue blends in to the sky. Black stands out like a silhouette.
But that's not the point. Batman should wear black because Batman wears black.

The blue isn't even what I find most cringe-worthy of that cowl.
Regarding the cowl; The ears are too short and cat-like, as someone else said in Part 1. I do like the brows and jaw cut, though it is cut a bit too wide. I dislike the nose. And the neck is too bulky and not maneuverable enough, as someone else said in Part 1. As for the blue, it should be a dark, midnight blue if anything, where the blue only shows when a light shines on it.How about specifying what you DO find most cringe worthy?
And perhaps you could also elaborate on what you DO like and want to see in a Batman costume. Something other than one off negative comments would be a nice change of pace from you, no offense.
According to the movie's costume desginer they changed something, but it looked exactly the same to me.Riiiight, hopefully you guys can answer this!
Was the suit in TDKR any different to that in TDK?

Now regarding my "negative" comments, I've said I like the way the Captain America suit from Avengers was manipped, it's why it's my base body for future Batman manips.I liked when someone posted a picture of Snake Eyes from the upcoming GIJoe 2 movie, and said it could be good, without the belly belts.
Only other posts that may be read as negative, even when they're not, is when saying the cape never draped over Batman in Nolan's movies and that Nolan is not a fan of a lot of Batman stuff, both of which are true. And in the thread beforehand, I just pointed out that old-school blue and grey Batman and Robin in fish-scale undies would never happen because of how ridiculous they look, and I know I'm not alone in saying that. I also disliked those saying they wanted the Arkham games Bat-suit because it'ss everything they hate about the movie suits, but more obnoxious(rubber looking armor, crazy huge gloves/gauntlets/boots/belt; as another poster stated in Part 1.
I've been no more negative than anyone else here, I've just happened to dislike more concepts here than I like. Just how it is. Only one I've disrespected and apologized to has been darklord.
But what Im saying I know that the original suit is supposed to be black. Even after the fact Batman was/is drawn with the blue suit as well as the black. There's a difference between that and your Superman reference because Superman isn't drawn with the sandals anymore while Batman is still drawn in the blue suit.The blue dominance was based initially on the misconception that the suit was blue. Which of course evolved in the the suit of the early fifties and then the "new look" from 1954.
The suit, in its final form ('tec #33 and onwards iirc) was supposed to be black. That is what I meant. Just like Superman had been depicted with Roman sandals for a time during his debut doesn't mean it should happen on screen.
