The BATSUIT Thread

Loving the cowl even more, personally. I'd want it to evolve down the line, but for a first flick, perfect.

He does seem a little slim in silhouette overall, but I'd honestly take that over chunky bruiser Affleck at this point on a dime, if only as a palate-cleanser. Jaw gets a bit less broad and nose gets pointier in a sequel, I'm all good. Maybe introduce a more iconic brighter Keaton/oval "**** you" symbol.
 
For most part the cowl looks fine. But in some shots from above it looks kinda weird that the upper part of the cowl is so big.
 
They said during the event that Pattinson used Val Kilmer's suit for the screen test. Maybe its the same one Bale used. Would be great to see that.
 
I'm still not in love with the cowl; it looks oddly bulbous in certain angles and I still think the mouth opening is too large.

Really don't know how I feel about it being *that* bulletproof either. Shrugging off a single pistol round to the chest would be one thing, but in that hallway shot he's taking dozens of assault rifle shots like it's nothing. Kind of betrays his non-superpowered humanity in a way, and defeats the purpose of stealth in his repertoire.
 
I actually didn't mind the suit in this. It looked fine. Maybe i just kind of got used to it.
I wasn't as put off as before with the makeshift quality to it.
 
It looks great here:

Still not a big fan of the cowl either, head's shape is odd. But maybe that's the point, to make him scary like a creature of the night haha. Suit looks great tho.
 
You're just used to the Miller-ears.

Kind of a recent development in Batman history. If anything the skinnier bug-ears are pretty much the norm, varying in length admittedly.
 
I love it. Works perfectly with Reeves' aesthetic.

Can't wait to see how it evolves.
 
It was pitch black in that room so taking bullets there certainly doesn't make stealth obsolete. The criminals in Gotham aren't hesitant to shoot apparently so he gotta do what he gotta do when it comes to the suit. A bulletproof vest doesn't make a man superhuman. This one is straight metal for this purpose. Had he been fighting people w guns who didn't shoot at him, it'd just be another thing to point out.
 
With all this new footage, I'm still not into the cowl. It's just....not threatening enough. Compared to the new cowl Keaton is rocking in The Flash trailer, this one is still coming up short.

To me it looks best at an angle.
 
Yeah, not into that either personally. But gonna reserve judgement for now, considering the suit in general looks so great.

Not really any different/worse to Keaton deflecting bullets with the gauntlet I guess. Meh.
 
Keaton got shot twice, Bale got shot, Affleck got shot in the head. Don't see a problem at all, if he's not invincible like Superman that's fine.
