The BATSUIT Thread

I do wanna keep the black and grey look. It's so iconic.

Add blue and it will be perfect.

I could do without the "plating" on the new suit, but I'm very pleased with how much leaner it looks in comparison to the BvS one.

The new cowl is a mixed bag for me, though. Like the suit itself, I'm glad they were able to streamline the neck. However, the shape of the cowl is a bit of a step down. They still really haven't cracked it.

Concur for the most part. Loved the BvS suit for its organic looking musculature and its shade of grey, not a fan of the darkening of the grey with the JL suit and I really dislike the addition of the plating as I thought we'd moved on from that whole approach. If they'd have just kept the BvS suit and slimmed it down like the JL one, I'd have been very happy. Actually, thinking about it wasn't that kind of what we saw in Suicide Squad?

My kingdom for a Mazzucchelli inspired cloth costume.

I have only one request - bring back longer ears.

 

[Boom]

I have only one request - bring back longer ears.

If Gyllenhaal is cast, I think they'd need to. Longer ears would suit his more angular features.

 

[OutOfBoose]

I also think longer ears separate Batman's silhouette from many other superheroes like Black Panther, Daredevil and so on...

Yes exactly.

Honestly, I'd love to see a return to a Batsuit along the lines of the Batman Begins suit. I feel like that's probably still the best balance of looking cinematic while respecting the source material.

I want a leaner looking batman anyway but especially if it’s Gyllenhaal.
Longer ears work well with the lean look.

I really liked the look of the ......undersuit? That bruce was wearing when Diana

popped his shoulder back into place

It was less muscular and it looked great.

Yes much leaner, Too much bulk and very stiff in JL.

I was already thinking about it but seeing him in JL definitely made me want it more
The part where

Batman was sitting up from being thrown by superman. It looked like goddamn struggle.

I would have liked the look of the Begins suit better if the cowl/cape attachment was more seamless, like it was on the Keaton and Affleck suits.

 

[OutOfBoose]

With minor tweaks, I think, BB suit is the best. I'd rework neck and that's about it. Also, I don't want them to go grey and blue.

 

[lujho]

The undersuit was cool - it was great to finally see what's under the cloth or whatever. I liked that you could see that the plate shapes on the outside are actually solid armour plates on the undersuit - I just wish they were more natural shapes that better covered the muscle groups than the weird little geometric ones we see.

 

[Greens]

I liked the suit in JL, but there were a couple of shots where Ben's face seemed to drown in the cowl. It extended inward from the chin toward the mouth a little too much.

 

[Travesty]

I still think the Affleck suits have been the best, but I hope they do something a little different for Reeves' solo. I would love to see a Neal Adams style suit. Blue&Grey and bring back the classic oval.

Although, I doubt we'll see the oval.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Longer ears, grey and blue. I will be so happy.

One thing we know for sure is that it will be drastically different to the current suit.

How do we know that? Did Reeves say something?

 

[Deck Rickard]

I'd kill to see a Neal Adams-inspired Batsuit.

Why would they keep the same suit if Batman is getting rebooted? LOL.

How do we know Batman is getting rebooted? A new actor doesn't mean a reboot.

Reeves has said his movies will not be connected to the bigger picture.
