I love when the haters trot out cosplay and low budget takes on classic costumes as some sort of idiotic defense. The classic costume will work if you spend the money on it.

NO! It can't be possible to light a figure like Richard Donner did back in 1975 - it's impossible!
The costume in Donners movies looks stupid as hell. Other than maybe David Lee Roth, nobody ever looked cool in spandex. It just doesn't work outside of comics and makes no sense either. Why the hell would guys like Superman and Batman wear spandex of all materials, especially for what is essentially battle armor?

With Batman you could make an argument against spandex, for practical reasons. But it really doesn't matter what Superman wears. Battle armor would be just as useful as his birthday suit. He wears the spandex because it's easy to conceal under his street clothes, and Superman's on-call 24/7. He doesn't always have time to fly home to put his costume on.
 
A different angle, with the cape...

Exactly. That people can not separate production shots from what it will actually look like in the film is baffling to this day.

EVERY MOVIE LOOKS LIKE SHIT IN PRODUCTION.

Wait, how do you know? I AM 6'1, lol.
You are? Hah, I thought you were shorter.

How are you not able to eat 3,000 calories then? Weakling. Get a bigger stomach.
 
Wait a minute... The guy in the mocap suit... Is that the guy who played Sully in Uncharted?


As for Supes, I think he looks great. The hair looks spot on. The lack of undies was annoying at first but im warming up to it. Can't wait to see what it looks like on film.
 
Its like Thor all over again. Will we ever learn that shitty gawker snapshots always looks awful?

And man, the crotch really draws the eye.

Lets turn this into an obscene crotches in cinema thread. Or maybe not.

Ofl I was thinking Bowie while looking at that Supes pic.

But the Thor suit still looked awful in the final movie as well. (I still loved the movie, though.)

Nothing's ever going to look as stunning as Chris Evans' Cap suit anyway. That was just flawless.

The images of Routh in the costume, specifically his crotch, are all post-production. They used CGI to fix it.

all of it?? 2 hours??


i just remember on the special edition routh saying there were a bunch of people responsible for patting it down


man, sr sucked.

I thought calories were defined by "what" you eat more than "how much"... I never knew people could find it difficult to rack up calories.


I like the new suit and I wish snyder well.

SR was good for the 20 odd minutes they got things right. I do remember someone saying that Rouths crotch was toned down in post however.

Maybe that was just Rouths saying that.

The guy in the motion capture suit is clearly (going to be) some kind of giant/monster judging by the giant stick protruding out of the top of his head with the 'eye level' for the actors.

I wonder if it's going to be some Superman villain or an alien henchman?

And the crotch bulge acts as the 'eye level' for the monster's actor.

Snyder doesn't feel the same way.

He told me he'd stab you in the throat with a rusty blade if he thought he'd get away with it.
