Daredevil The Inevitable Costume Thread - Part 1

[ernesth100]

LOL. I just got bored and thought it would be an interesting thing for him to do at somepoint be it comics or Netflix.

 

[guitarsingerguy]

I just can't believe that the suit isn't changing at all. I know we haven't seen much, but there don't seem to be any tweaks made or anything. I thought for sure there would be some minor updates.

Relax. It could just as well change troughout the season.

By the way, on the Netflix starting page, the forehead piece has the same red color as the rest of the helmet. I wonder why that is.

I mean, I don't hate the suit to begin with. I just find it odd that it wouldn't evolve, but you're right. Is entirely possible that it could throughout the season.

Arrow went 3 seasons before a new costume. Flash is still basically on its first one. TV shows don't have the huge budget of movies to have a redesigned suit every time. I'm sure there will be a new suit eventually, and/or minor evolutions of the current one, but we'll have to be patient.

They were never going to completely ditch the Season 1 suit when it only appeared in one episode.

 

[Norek]

Visually, it could be better, but my only concern is the movement restriction - I hope they find a way to at least make it a bit more flexible, so the fight scenes could look organic as they did when he was wearing the black suit. To be honest, he seems very stiff at the end of season one when he was fighting Fisk.

They shouldn't have created it with that look in the first place. Even the Flash's suit looks more flexible and doesn't look like an eyesore everytime you see it.

We get it! You hate the costume!

If I remember correctly, the Netflix shows all had massive budgets thrown at them.

 

[ernesth100]

I'm telling you. Defenders.

 

[Whatupman]

Compared to MCU:s movies? Yeah ... no.

 

[lujho]

I'm telling you. Defenders.

Yeah I forgot about that. That would be a good point to introduce a new costume.

 

[TheVileOne]

To me, I'm not holding my breath at this point. I hope at least they can continually tweak the suit and add certain elements in over time. Similar to Cap's suit in the movies. Though I still wish he could just get some stripes on the back.

 

[Bruce Malone]

People need to wait to see how the suit looks in action before judging it. They're probably been some tweaks made already, it might looks a lot better in action than the brief moments we saw last season.

 

[Whatupman]

I believe it will. It looks like it fits Cox better this time around. Cox is also bigger this season, which is a plus. I thought the costume at the end of last season sometimes made him look a little bit too skinny.

 

[lujho]

I have no problem with how big Cox WASN'T last season. I loved how he was fit and strong but not huge - not every superhero has to be a hulking muscleman. And it was kind of nice to see a superhero whose physique was something a lot closer to being achievable by me.

If he's bigger this season that's cool, but I wouldn't want to see him get THAT big.

 

[ernesth100]

He doesnt look much bigger. The suit just looks tighter

Oh, I agree 100%! Cox was in fantastic shape, and really had the perfect physique for the character. Daredevil shouldn't be huge. What I meant was that I sometimes felt that he didn't look strong in the suit at the end of last season, say compared to his black one. The suit in the end sometimes had the effekt like the Superman Returns suit, or the Captain America suit from the first Avengers, where it took away from the actors physique.

 

[Bruce Malone]

Cox looked beastly here

 

[Whatupman]

Just compare these two pictures:

How the hell did Cox and the Stunt Double see through the mask black mask

Just compare these two pictures:

That's pretty much the difference between this and this

as the black outfit was actually just form fitting athletic wear.

Marvel doesn't seem to go for very fitted outfits for their street level heroes.

Maybe if Zack Snyder was in charge you'd get more muscle defining costumes?

I do love the new Batsuit, even though I think that Snyder sometimes take the muscle definition a little too far. But I think a good comparison would be how much better the Winter Soldier suit looks on Evans than the first Avenger's one. For me, I would like Daredevil's red suit to be closer to the Winter Soldier suit than the first Avenger's one.

 

[Bruce Malone]

I don't know I think the suit looks pretty good in this shot

The other promo images they've released haven't been great but I'm quite positive the suit fits Cox better now which will go a long way.

 

[Whatupman]

Yes, I really agree with that. I was more talking about the red costume at the end of last season. It looks like it fits better now, and I really love that picture.
