What's the best looking armor in TV / movies

Not that.

ohhhh nononono

>>87178933
>Kingsguard
>Dressed in black
Why the fuck is every character dressed in all black 100% of the time?
Even Cersei who hates wearing black is in some bizarre chainmail dress.

This armor looks fake as fuck. He looks like a barrel with legs.

It's a miracle when TV shows and movies show armor that's remotely practical and not some fucking leather theater costume, making it look good at the same time is virtually impossible. So I'll go with an armor that's both historical and cool (pic related). I doubt many of you have seen that movie though, so if I had to make a more mainstream pick, I'd say the Hound.

Surely wearing extravagant gowns and jewellery and shit would be a good way to show power (you know, the main reason people wear them irl), would add some legitimacy to her claim on the throne and show confidence and other shit that makes sense

Cersei is the biggest tryhard in this series.
Everything she does is some shallow attempt at aping based Tywin.

Season 6 the original costume designer left and the new one decided EVERYONE WEARS BLACK.

The original one came back but I guess for continuity sake everyone still wears black

>>87180103
thats why liked it. not as generic shiny metal as mostly armours in movies, not japan samurai or generic sci-fi either. it was just one of its kind

>>87180054
Well, not in the fucking books.
They have the largest army and best knights in the Seven Kingdoms. The Reach is also the homeland of Westerosi knighthood and chivalry, so Reach knights are the finest in the world and stick closely to the observance and rules of being a knight.
You can try chalking the nerfing of TV Tyrells to D&D retconning and trying to make 'le original content', but no one ever denies at any point that the Reach is the fertile breadbasket of Westeros and the literal cornerstone for Westeros' greatest military asset; its fucking knights. By all metrics and standards, they should be a formidable threat
Makes no sense that TV Tyrells would be so weaksauce and anemic. It's the same reason why France has historically been a dominant military power, despite being the 'effeminate ladyboys' of Europe.

>>87180322

>>87180306
Um, is this original unused House Bolton armor?

The real pottery is that Cersei wishes she was Tywin because she spent her entire life begging for his approval, but Tyrion, the son Tywin hated the most, is actually the most similar to him, in character, intelligence and personality. Jaime, the son Tywin most loved, in turn is the most different.

Sadly much of this irony is being lost as D&D can't write for shit. But that's how it was in the books and the early seasons of the show.

Usually, chainmail looks derpy because of the way it just hangs loosely on a lot of actors and performers.

I wish there more movies or shows that put an effort towards realistic historical armor instead. This is the only movie I've seen that did that, an obscure italian movie set during the Italian wars of the 16th century where gunpowder was still new and armor could still resist bullets.

>>87187709
tyrells have some of the finest knights in all of westeros. garlan tyrell, the eldest son and heir to highgarden is one of the best fighters in the series.

loras is a more heroic knight. cocky, skilled, and chivalrous. and he's not a complete twink slut like he is in the show. he's gay, but he's pretty heartbroken after renly's death and goes chaste.

>Armor made of hundreds of intricately form fitting thin sheets of steel so contrived that it lobsters around his entire body
A single blow from mace or hammer and he'd never move again as the plates would bind and clamp together, he'd need to be cut from that armor after a single fight. This is a problem with fantasy armor that goes overboard with the intricate lobstering. It may look cool to have all those movie parts so fit that they glide on one another, and you might think it's an advantage to have this level of articulation but it's a structural weakness. A single plate offers far more protection. While you may see this level of lobstering on gauntlets where you don't need as much protection an entire suit of this is just retarded.

>>87187787
His brothers are two of the best characters in the books, especially Garlan. Of course D&D would cut them, Garlan is honorable, stands up for Sansa and tells Joffrey to get fucked, and trains against multiple men at once to prepare himself for battle and would heem all the other scrubs in King's Landing. Why the fuck would they ever include a great character like that when they can have Missandei and Grey Worm have a love story instead?

>>87179757
>Honestly that wouldn't look too bad if the gaffer wasn't sleeping on the job and cut the light hitting his eye.
I think it's by choice. They tend to show his eyes a lot, guess they're really trying to avoid being subtle about having any mystery as to who he is.

>>87187965
Counterpoint: Sauron is magic and that armor is basically his body

>>87187959
What have they not ruined? How the fuck did they decide it was a good idea to remove Ser Artur "The Sword of the Morning" Dane main gimmick of holding a unique blade when he fights? That's like telling a story about King Arthur without Excalibur. Totally defeats the purpose.

>>87188052
