You’re exactly right there, Rodney. Adam Knight was almost too perfect to turn out to be Bruce. I hate what they did to the character, and really wished they would have done something a lot more open ended so they could bring in the Batman tie-ins later on if they wanted. It’s kind of hard to bring him back at this point…

Slash beast, you’re right that they weren’t significant enough changes to upset the community, but they were still not literal interpretations like the images above are, that’s all I was saying.

None of those are examples of significant enough changes that would upset the fan community.

Hey Rodney… I agree completely that: A.) This is a change of tone as far as costumes AND B.) They do appear pretty accurate as far as how they are DRAWN in the comics…

However… the only thing i would add (and why i don’t personally like the look of them) is that they don’t look like they would if they we actually “MADE” in the “Real World”. Fate’s helmet looks like some cheap plastic, and it looks like they all have plastic belts and Styrofoam masks and rubber weapons and fabric wings, etc.

Stargirl’s outfit should look like some kinda Kevlar, and Fate’s medallion and helmet like real gold metal, and Hawkman’s wings like REAL feathers, etc. Maybe its just budget?

PS – Hawkman’s wings look really “stubby”. They should be the whole length of his body. LOL. Could you really see those wings carrying a 250lb man? heh heh. LOL.

Did you see Otto Octavius with a green and gold jumpsuit and bright blue glasses in the film? No? Well that’s how he is traditionally portrayed in the books (or green and silver in the ultimate books). He also usually has really round tentacles, not the blocky ones they went with in the films.

Did you see Nightcrawler in a red and blue (sometimes black) leotard with larger shoulder pads in X2? No? Well that’s how he is usually portrayed in the books.

Both the fuzzy elf and Doc looked great in the films, but they were far from traditional representations of the characters.

How did Nightcrawler and Dr. Octopus look anything unlike the comic book versions?

I did say above that despite the costumes being completely accurate, it detracts from the tone already set by 8 and a half seasons of the show.

They don’t look bad. The costumes themselves look right. I just don’t think they fit in Smallville.
