Stop Comparing the Superman Suits

I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks this. I think a lot of it is from people who want either Synder’s darker take or want Cavil in the role. I thought Cavil was good casting, but suffered from bad writing, I get people liked it, I just wasn’t one of them. But I’m excited to see what David will bring to the role, and I am more hopeful for the future of DC.

I actually like the new suit for James Gunn Superman movie

Its just like the batman suit leaks. People were mocking it for the padding, refering to the joke in bales batman. But after its released and everyone is in awe with the suit.

Let's see, we got people hating on the new Superman cuz they still can't move on from Henry Cavill it seems. And next we're probably gonna have people hating on the new Supergirl because they can't move on from Melissa Benoist lol. (seriously tho, when Milly Alcock first announced for DCU Supergirl, there's some Melissa Benoist fanboys who complained why it's not Melissa coming back. I mean, i get it, but Melissa is a bit too old now, we need a younger Supergirl for James Gunn's DCU). Although the Melissa Benoist fanboy thing were still a minor problem tho, since we haven't had any first look or details at the new Supergirl yet.

i honestly loved cavil’s superman , but i will never be a toxic fanboy like the synder cultist , end of the day im a superman fan and i have hopes corenswet does a great job in the movie

I think the suit looks just fine! It’s a SUIT people! Sigh (😔), I seriously hate it when people do this. James Gunn does have a good point IMHO; superheroes don’t absolutely ”have” to be taken so uber-seriously in every single superhero movie.

I’ve never liked comparing the suits. Each suit is for its time and of it’s time. No need to compare. We all have our memories of the first one we saw but none of them are “bad”.

Honestly, its just a phase for everyone. Theyll hate it when its first shown, then after its released, everyone will love it.

From the suits Cavill used, the Batman v Superman one was the best. But after seeing David wearing in the new photos I loved the new costume. It just screams Superman, it's a perfect mixture of classic, New 52 and Kingdom Come. People who have been complaining are just doing so because they still haven't got over Cavill being recast. But where were those people to support Black Adam? Or the rest of DCEU? As much as a lot of people online like Cavill, his Superman never got a great reception towards general audiences. Before Gunn rebooting DCEU with DCU, I wanted Cavill to Star in four Superman movies, but general audiences have grown so apathetic towards DCEU that I really doubt that Cavill starring in a new Superman movie would've worked.

You absolutely can compare them. You can literally look up the set photos of Henry cavill in the suit, it’s not that different from post production. The new suit is simply ugly. The only thing I like about it more than cavills suit is the colors.

I think it’s just popular to hate it I doubt ppl put that much effort into really understanding the way films work but. Everyone’s hating so they follow the crowd

They’re literally tailored made scoring to the type of movie and universe it is. And the actor. Superman’s DCEU look was made like that to fit the tone of the universe even if I’ve never liked it myself.

Im honestly tired of realistic looking suits, most of the comic accurate suits we’ve seen from Marvel have been ok probably because the excess of content. This proves to me that comic accurate suits can work with the right budget.

Gunns Superman is inspired by All Star Superman and Superman for All Seasons that show a Superman who has more of a colourful and just overall big guy look. If you look at All Star Superman he has barely any definition so that’s the look Gunn is going for. He looks more approachable and friendly than Snyders Superman who looks very intimidating. Both are valid but are inspired by different versions of the character.

I thought this suit looks clean. I think people are hating on stuff because they've have been desensitized to bad writing and assume that films after that will be terrible

First impressions matter to a lot people. Gunn had the chance to show off his vision for the suit (lighting, color grading, tone, etc.) with the first promo pic, and a lot of people walked away from it thinking he fumbled the bag. We now have set photos of the suit in its purest form, and once again people believe he fumbled. These were the 2 best chances to get people hooked and it didn't work. The suit from TASM 2 had a positive reception when it was first revealed and is still regarded as one of the best Spidey suits to hit the big screen. As for the comparisons, while using screenshots from the films is somewhat unfair, people are still allowed to make a comparison as we too have set photos of the Cavil suits and people are already familiar with what the actual suits look like. Plus, comparing and contrasting suits allow the people making these films to learn and improve for future movies, even if the films have different tones. If learning from the past wasn't allowed, live action Batmen would probably still lack the ability to move their heads.

I agree entirely. We haven't even seen it on the screen and for all we know that suit could change.

I didn’t like the new suit at first, but it has really grown on me, especially after the set photos showing how vibrant it is and how tangible it seems…still think the lines are unnecessary lol.

It's not called superman legacy anymore it's just Superman 2025. The only ppl i see throwing excessive tantrums is snyder's chronically online cult like fandom everyone else i've seen are mostly positive or have minor criticisms. Some of these weirdos need to go outside 🤦‍♂️

I like both suits! I don't know why people have to fight over everything.
