Re: Batman vs. Superman (2016)

:lol

They could make some excuse up about it being a thermal type suit, to regulate his body temperature while he's breaking the sound barrier etc.. but really, does it have to look like the above?

Such a lack of creativity, & it's obvious they're playing it safe because the tactical track suits are all the rage now. :slap


Really? There you go.. :lol

To be fair, though, it kind of fits with Barry's characterization on Arrow. He's so giddy about meeting a real-life Superhero (so much so that he designs a mask for him), it's kind of true to his character to design something that relies on the conventions of most other superhero costumes.
 
Re: Batman vs. Superman (2016)

I like it.
The core elements are there and they'll make it work when we see it the way it was meant to be seen.

Re: Batman vs. Superman (2016)

Im not rationalizing the costume, I simply don't like the design, good for those who do.

Looks like a darker, less goofy Flash suit to me... Plus it's his first suit and is likely to be updated over time.

Not entirely sure why the DC movie fan crowd doesn't want Arrow to succeed considering that it's doing a much better job at assembling the Justice League and keeping true to the comics in simply a season and a half than the movie-verse has been able to for years. :dunno

I guess it's just the misconception that Arrow is a copy of Smallville.
 
Re: Batman vs. Superman (2016)

Arrow is a fantastic show, but I always thought the costumes were generic as hell, not crazy about the old flash suit either, looked like the tick live action movie.

..& therein lies the problem ultimately.

Movie / TV land have shot themselves in the proverbial foot, because they've now set up a DC world where TRUE fantasy is secondary a lot of the time (yes MOS has enough of that - & not counting GL.. that should be wiped from the record), but in general, they've set a precedent now that they're worried about going against. Everything needs to be grounded in some sort of safe explanation - it does always have to be that way. :huh
 
Batman vs. Superman (2016)

I don't mind a little explanation... Otherwise we end up with Jackman Wolverine whom can't wear his comic book suit cause "there's no reason for it"

Beside most main Dc superheroes are more grounded in sci fi than magic.

I fact explaining things doesn't mean there can't be "magic", Marvel blended it perfectly.

My fear with that Flash costume is, if it looks that bad, how horrid/biker chic are they going to make Prof Zoom? :(
 
Re: Batman vs. Superman (2016)

I meant to say 'doesn't' in my last sentence there in that previous post of mine. :lol

Look - sure, some explanation for things in context is of course appropriate to say the least, but it's like they're scared to take a leap or something - especially after MOS polarized fans, & GL just making people laugh.

I just hope in this next installment, the convolution is replaced by solid / classic DC comics gold.

Don't hold your breath, you'll turn into a Smurf. :lol
 
Re: Batman vs. Superman (2016)

By calling it advanced technology. :p

We don't know how that works anyway :lol well in my eyes it's all the same, but there is still magic in the marvel universe, they just haven't showed it yet, they missed an opportunity with Malekith cause he's the best wizard in the 9 realms in the comics.

Well, I highly doubt, if they ever bring any of the Shazam related characters, that they'll just ignore the magic elements.

I guess it all depends on how they explain WW's powers in this movie.

If he isn't called Captain Marvel and his powers don't come from a wizard, I don't want to see it.
