Batman Tactical Suit

>>86271999
It doesn't matter

>>86272012
Now what happens

>>86271999

That looks better than the garbage he was wearing earlier. Still, those sectioned abdominal plates are retarded and the bat symbol is still too fucking big.

>>86271999
Looks a bit like Arkham Knight suit.

Also I wonder if those are the goggles that light up white. Wanna see that

now THIS is a great costume

Right so this is the second suit right? He has one which is the updated BvS one which has a really dark navy cape and cowl+abdominal plates and this one?

I like it. I think its neat the Bat symbol is different.

>>86272427
JA JA JA JAAAAAAAAAAA

I like it. I like Bats having different suits for different situations.

Given this is called the Tactical Batsuit, I assume this is the one he uses against parademons.

>>86272415
Oh, I thought you meant that they had changed the symbol design.

>>86272427
Brazilians pls go

I thought they said one of his suits was more blue?

>>86272483
Maybe one of the journalists said that?
He might have more suits.

You and everyone else on Twitter...

>>86272641

i remember seing it before BvS

Justice League will be the Batman & Robin of neo-capeshit. Suicide Squad already set the tone. This will just be the nail in the coffin.

>>86272547
But Watchmen was fantastic.

>>86272814

The original suit is perfect.

I liked his suit better in BvS and Squad, I'm sick of the armor look

Looks good but I'm not a fan of the goggles.

>>86271999
if you are going to give him a tactical suit at least cover his mouth

>>86271999
All I care about is a good looking suit, and the new Batman suits are not good looking.

The cowl makes the ears look weird, and the armor looks awful on both. Why was this allowed?

Cowl and goggles look like shit. Everything else is fine, though.

Holy shit. It is more Arkham Origins-style than what we've seen in the preview. They're definitely pulling from it with this version of the suit and the version of Deathstroke's suit we're getting.

>>86272350
That's still one of the best capeshit suits.

>>86274404
They're different suits, anon.
That's the updated normal Batsuit; the one posted today is the Tactical Batsuit.

Details here: >>86273580

>>86271999
I dig the idea of Batman having an armoured suit for when he's hanging with the Justice League, because they usually go up against much heavier hitters than Bats is used to.

I like the overall design, but the cowl and especially the ears look really off to me.

It is. The that symbol is missing the "finger" in the bottom middle of each wing, the "finger at the end of each wing is curled inward and the tail point is much more pronounced.

>>86272641
And yet it was precient.

The little contours on top of his head are garbage ugly

>>86274204
>You seriously think that is better than any of the other suits?

Yes. He's finally wearing body armor instead of stupe-ass looking impractical tights. If you're some jackoff with no powers at all, you shouldn't be going around in spandex.

>>86271999
hackamn snyder had some leftover props from watchmen

Somebody make the goggles white

Well, the having the classic suit was nice while it lasted. I knew it was only a matter of time before we got more tacticool shit.

Also, they really need to fix his ears already.

>>86275341
No, youre a fucking pleb, long ears are retarded.a bat has short ears.

>>86275341
Implying there wont be an entirely new suit by the next movie. They have toys to sell after all.

the reason is why the fuck would batman need a "streamlined tacticool" suit.

>>86271999
That cowl is a fucking travesty. The suit is sublime, but I just don't understand how you deviate from the BvS cowl; it was perfect.

The goggles are kind of goofy, but they're likely only going to be in one scene.

I was talking about the ways the ears look. Not the length, necessarily.

They're pointing up weird with no curvature to them at all.

Honestly, I just wish the BvS standard suit was sticking around longer. It was legit great.

Really not sure I like them doing the Iron Man armor thing and have 3+ suit variations in a single movie. (Especially as time goes on. Isn't Stark at the Mk. 26 already?)

>>86276081
The 1st (BvS) and 4th (SS) are the same. It's just the addition of the rebreather. The 5th (JL) has additional minor kevlar armor patching.

Seriously, i think BP's ears were longer.

Not sure about this movie, really loved BvS and this seems to be walking back the weirdness and edgyness . They clamped down on Snyder when BvS would have done way better if they releasedthe Ultimate Edition right off the bat, that's on you WB. LET SNYDER BE SNYDER.

>>86279639
>But Watchmen was somehow able to miss the point entirely while still adapting panels verbatim
People always say this and it has never made sense to me. How exactly did Snyder miss the subtext? Seems to be all there in the movie, I don't know who's watching Watchmen and thinking it's about how awesome superheroes are or something.

>>86279615
Explain The Batman then.

>>86279697
>I don't know who's watching Watchmen and thinking it's about how awesome superheroes are or something.
Snyder. Snyder is. The only reason he wanted to do Watchmen is because he wasn't interested in comics unless they had edgy shit and sex. He managed to capture the nostalgia well in the montage intro but he missed the point of Rorschach, Dan, Veidt, and the Comedian. All the violence is played up in the typical Snyder style to show off how badass and cool it is, when the Comedian is a psychopath, Rorschach is nuts, and Dan is a fucking pushover. Dan's entire character can be summed up as "anal-retentive impotency." Yet Dan has actual action scenes and rages on Veidt at the end. Also Veidt, who seems even arrogant, when Ozymandias' whole character in the comic was how deep he was in self hatred at his compromises. "35 minutes ago" isn't supposed to be smug, it's fatalistic. Ozy was showing them how futile their endeavors were. There's a lot more too, I'm just shit at wording it.

Plus there's, yknow, the horrible changed ending that breaks the narrative of the story. The squid is essential to what Watchmen is because of how fucking far from left field it comes. The reaction the audience has is supposed to reflect how humanity in the movie would react. Faced only with that fucking psychic squid, it's almost understandable that Veidt's plan could have worked. When it's traceable to Doc Manhattan and happening across the world, the entire planet would start nuking the SHIT out of America. It's the Cold fucking War. They're not gonna pause to make sure that America is totally also getting bombed, fuck that.

You better be talking about how that's the way the movie presented them.

>>86279977
I didn't say that ALL Batmen with short ears were the best, just that the ones who are best happen to have short ears too.

>>86279508

You can't be serious.

>>86280201
Yeah, pretty sure that's all up there on the screen. I didn't see a problem with the characters, except that Matthew Goode was a bit too transparently sinister.

>>86280201
>You better be talking about how that's the way the movie presented them.
It's really not. The Comedian is framed almost sympathetically, Rorschach is given the most focus and his death is actually shown to have an impact on Dan. Dan in the comics doesn't even look back when Rorschach leaves because of how much of a pussy he is. The only part where Dan is supposed to have any balls is when Holland is killed, and that's because shit finally crossed a line for him. He doesn't actually care as strongly about Rorschach as a friend. And Rorschach is not supposed to be badass. Yet he's entirely presented as though what he's doing is cool.

A lot of the comic that focuses on the world around them is absent in the movie, replaced by generic war-council Nixon building to the nukes. It feels completely out of place, since it only serves to the audience to sell the dread of how close America was to bombing the USSR, when the dread in the comics comes from the random civilians and newspapers and everyone. In place of that world, Snyder's runtime focuses on the characters, with Rorschach being framed the most as the hero.

>>86279658
Being "daring" means nothing if the execution is lacking.

>>86280372
It's a matter of taste, people disagree. It was really the Ultimate Edition that made me love it, and after seeing Excalibur I get what Snyder was going for.

Here's something on the Excalibur connection.
>http://waltermetz.com/batman-vs-superman-dawn-of-justice-2016/

>By grounding itself in the mythology of Excalibur, Batman vs. Superman finds a mature language for understanding the relationship between kings, gods, and humans, thematic material sorely lacking in almost all of the rival Marvel films. The story of the Fisher King is one that deeply matters to us because it expresses the relationship between humans and the Earth from which they spring. An environmental filmmaker to his core, John Boorman emphasizes that “the land is the king, and the king is the land,” a mythological structure that permeates his film. When Arthur thrives, his knights ride past brightly colored flowers. When Arthur fails amidst a sea of sexual treachery and betrayal, the English countryside is reduced to barren, black earth.

>Batman vs. Superman fuses the bleak urban decay of the Batman movies (from Tim Burton’s to the more recent Christopher Nolan outings) to the bright world of Superman, most beautifully expressed in the Christopher Reeve movies that began the modern spate of big-budget Hollywood superhero films. The two heroes of Batman vs. Superman have put aside their differences, united in their desire to redeem humanity. They accomplish exactly what Lancelot and Arthur do at the end of Excalibur, joining one last time in their battle against evil, sacrificing themselves not as enemies but as brothers, allowing others to thrive in their place. Because of their film’s superb mastery of intertextuality, for all their differences—man vs. god, dark vs. light—Batman and Superman end their new film as these kind of Arthurian brothers, forging a bond that is both meaningful and shockingly emotionally moving.

>>86279658
>it was daring

There was nothing "daring" about it.

>>86272215
I like it all except the cowl. Looks a lot like Nite-Owl, or Nighthawk.

>>86280426
The execution was awesome, it was only when Snyder was forced to capitulate to the demands of franchise filmmaking that it feels inauthentic.

>The Justice League teaser
>3 different characters pointing out that the area Doomsday is fucking up is uninhabited, so hand wringing dweebs won't moan about casualties.

>>86280581
Of course it was daring, you can tell from all the pearl clutching that ensued at the portrayal of Batman and Superman. The fact is Snyder could have made the movie you all wanted in his sleep, but he had different ambitions.

>>86274719
>50's/60's era batmobile color scheme

That's the best friggin bat armor I've ever seen.

>>86280704

>>86280573
That's a lot of shoots and hoops to say "they start out enemies and become friends in the end and their cities reflect their personalities" (which isn't even truth).

>>86275436
Are you serious? Honestly the reallest take on Batman was probably Arkham Knight (the character himself, not that version of Batman). For what Batman does he would DEFINITELY not wear a cape, first of all. That thing would be noisy as fuck. He would basically look like a swat member with bat ears.

It's talking about the similarities to Excalibur.

>The film’s great triumph in this regard occurs when Superman must sacrifice himself fighting a golem that the villain, Lex Luther has created from the genetic remnants found in a demolished space ship from Krypton. Impaled in the chest by a Kryptonite spear that Batman earlier created to kill the god he only thinks is his enemy, Superman must pull himself closer to the golem to finish the beast off. It is an exquisite reformulation of an identical scene in Excalibur. At the end of Boorman’s film, Arthur must painfully slide up the lance that impales him, to Mordred, his evil son created by an incestuous mating with his sister. Arthur slays his son and rescues England from the barren misery he has created, as does Superman rid Earth of his similarly genetic miscreant.

>Batman vs. Superman skillfully uses Excalibur as an act of transference from the world of Batman to that of Superman. At the beginning of the film, Excalibur serves as the marker of Bruce Wayne’s Oedipal trauma. He cures himself of that trauma, headed from isolation as a vigilante to the community of the Justice League in future films, by passing the heroic torch to Superman. It is the Man of Steel who redeems Batman, lifting the solution to the problem of the golem from the very film Bruce Wayne never got to see as a child.

Again, shoots and hoops to force what might be a neat reference (done in a million movies including superhero movies) into a subtext that just isn't there.

>>86280930
>>86280985
That, and by trying to force this scenario it removes actual believability and rationality from the story. There's no reason why WW couldn't hold the spear and Superman the lasso.

>>86280985
>subtext that just isn't there.
The "subtext" that Batman outright states at the end of the movie isn't there? That's more blind than people saying Luthor never explained his reasons for hating Superman.

>>86281068
>There's no reason why WW couldn't hold the spear and Superman the lasso.
It's a movie dude, Iconography>Logic. Superman won't use Wonder Woman's lasso for the same reason Tony Stark hasn't just given everyone an Iron Man suit in The Avengers.

That's not subtext. That's textbook character development. The mere fact that he spells it out (probably for the "intellectual" fans) evidences there's nothing subtle about it.

>>86281068

Actually in the movie the lasso only glows gold when Wonder Woman is holding it. Would seem to imply that due to its magical nature only she can use it.

>>86281254
So we went from "it's not there" to "he said it so it doesn't count"

>>86281295
There's no subtext and he stated out his character development which is not only very basic, but has nothing to do with Arthurian lore.

>>86281343
>but has nothing to do with Arthurian lore
No one's talking about Arthurian Lore, we're talking about a specific John Boorman movie called Excalibur. Which BvS is heavily influenced by, maybe watch that movie before trying to say the influences aren't there.

>>86281406
I did. Great movie. Had nothing to do with BvS.

And given it's an adaptation of the tale of King Arthur, it is part of the Arthurian lore.

>>86281446
>Had nothing to do with BvS.
Are you implying that there are no references to Excalibur in BvS?.

>>86281515
Superman pulling himself into the spear is a neat reference and I guess Luthor might have referenced it on one of his long-winded spiels. Other than that? No, not really. Certainly none of these overblown "inspirations" people are forcing into the movie.

The fact is some people are so obsessed with validating BvS somehow they'll see things that aren't there. Look at that scene where Superman throws Batman through the wall and creates a hole. Snyder has recently said it's shaped like the state where Jerry Siegel was born/grew up in. Fine.

But back when it came out people assumed it was a whale and elaborated a narrative how it was a reference to Moby Dick and how Batman and Superman were supposed to both symbolize Captain Ahab and the Whale. That was used many times in those run-of-the-mill "BvS is 2deep4u" threads.

lo and behold, it was just a nod to Siegel.

>>86280393

Yeah, but Rorschach in the comics isn't exactly "nuts" either.

>>86281736
>Superman pulling himself into the spear is a neat reference and I guess Luthor might have referenced it on one of his long-winded spiels. Other than that? No, not really.

What's incorrect about this then?

>>86282044
Pretty much everything. There was no "passing of the torch", not significance at all Excalibur in the context of the movie other than being a name on a theater marquee. It wasn't even the movie Bruce went to see, as right below is the Mask of Zorro.

>>86282117
>There was no "passing of the torch", not significance at all Excalibur in the context of the movie other than being a name on a theater marquee.

Batman man goes from working alone to save the world from Superman, to working with him to save the world from Doomsday. That's the "passing of the torch", Batman accepts Superman as a hero in his own right. I don't really understand what you mean by " not significance at all Excalibur in the context of the movie other than being a name on a theater marquee." Does the reference not count unless the characters actually say "This is like Excalibur" in the movie?

>>86282315
It's not like Excalibur. What you're describing is pretty much every buddy cop/superhero team-up story ever.

Excalibur is referenced once, but there's no subtext permeating the movie. It's like saying X-Men movies are inspired by Arthurian legends because Xavier's favorite book is the Once and Future King.

>>86271999

Whats the point in creating a comic-accurate and widely praised costume if you're just going to change it for the same old tacticool shit in the next movie?

I'm really hoping this is just a temporary "situational" suit

>>86282615
>It's not like Excalibur.
I'd argue that the treatment of the characters is a lot like Excalibur. In fact the negative reviews of Excalibur on release eerily mirror those of BvS. To quote Roger Ebert.

"a record of the comings and goings of arbitrary, inconsistent, shadowy, figures who are not heroes but simply giants run amok. Still, it's wonderful to look at."

>>86282615
Considering that Excalibur is one of Zack Snyder's favourite movies it doesn't seem far fetched to assume BvS was inspired by it.

>>86272641
It was definitely before because the first time I saw it was when the first trailer dropped. And, frankly, anybody who's seen any two of his movies, not necessarily DCEU films, could establish this pattern.

You've gotta remember, Snyder's been making movies for years. As much as everyone loved 300, it was a terribly flawed adaptation and a lot of the problems we see in his contemporary work were present, there, a decade ago. Then he went on to make Watchmen and Sucker Punch, the former of which clumsily adapted iconic moments from its source material while completely misunderstanding why those moments were so resonant; and the latter, showcased the same kind of disjointed editing we see in Batman v. Superman.

The whole thing from the start. As I was watching the opening scenes I didn't feel drawn in or engaged by the way they were shot and edited. I love Supes and Bats so I was really surprised how the film made me disinterested in these characters.

>As I was watching the opening scenes I didn't feel drawn in or engaged by the way they were shot and edited.

But why? What in particular had this effect? What would have made it work?

>>86289809
As a normative statement it can only really have anecdotal evidence. Here being that as a life long Supes and Bats fan the film failed to make me care about what happened to ether character.

>>86289854
But why?

>>86289828
Off the top of my head I would say the pacing.

The death of Batman's parents is done in such a gratuitous and fetishistic way as to make it distasteful. The next scene, where Bruce looses a father figure in the battle of Metropolis, is just a thematic retread and doesn't add anything to or progress the story, really.

To make it work they just had to make it closer to the Superman/Batman Adventures film or any of the comics that do a better job of them meeting.

Overall the film lacks engaging or interesting characters.

>>86289935
>The death of Batman's parents is done in such a gratuitous and fetishistic way as to make it distasteful.
I don't think that's true at all. Not only is it a recreation of the dark knight returns, it also is done in a slow and respectful way so that we can see it in the lens of Bruce Wayne while also showing how great of a man Thomas was.

>The next scene, where Bruce looses a father figure in the battle of Metropolis, is just a thematic retread and doesn't add anything to or progress the story, really.
Isn't it used as a parallel to show us how he is reliving the same moment again? The most traumatic moment in his life has come back to haunt him in a fresh way. The first time, he became Batman; the second time, he came back.

I'm not trying to argue, I'm just trying to see your perspective and allow you to see mine.

>>86279992

This happens in the comics you fucking selective memory ass clown.

Nite Owl and Silk II get attacked by some random Top-Knots in the comics, and they beat the shit out of them like they did in the movie.

Nite Owl gets all bitchy at Ozymandias after Ozymandias punches Silk II and then tells Nite Owl to "grow up".

Look there's a whole bunch wrong with Watchmen as a film and I'm totally prepared to admit that. I personally get more and more annoyed with it every time I've watched it.

But I don't pretend like Snyder took liberties when he didn't.

I don't mind the Arkham like suit that much, but I hate the direction of the ears and those goggles. You think he would get longer ears, but not facing completely backwards.

BvS Batfleck suit v.1 is probably the best Batsuit we'll ever get. Classic Grey and Black suit with little armor, intimidating cowl. Great looking in general compared to armored 2008 Batman.
