I was bored yesterday, so I went through the old costume threads, Part 1, Part 2, so on and so forth.
There were some manips made showing Superman without his trunks, a good amount of posters were saying how it wasn't Superman. Now some of the same posters are loving this new look and what not. It's not a knock against any one poster, I think as you said, a movie is coming out so all of the demands they were going on and on about for months or years got thrown out the window.
Same thing with the colors. The colors were so important in these threads, no dark blue and the red had to be bright. The only bright red on this suit is the cape.
Again no real problem with the suit, but I get so interested in the irony of it all.
