So is it true? Andy Park was the dude responsible for all those awful marvel costumes over the years? isnt this an actual good thing they got rid of him?

On the one hand I don’t understand why these losers thought they’d just have a meal ticket for life. That’s not how the industry works. Plus, like you, I hate all of the MCU designs.

On the other hand it’s not like theyre going to hire anyone better and the designers have no real power. It’s like complaining that the painter painted a house pink with orange trim when it’s the homeowner who chooses the colors.

Nobody who works in any capacity for the MCU has any sort of latitude.

This whole thing stems from a weird hatred/disrespect Hollywood has for superheroes despite relying on them so heavily. The cluttered designs that are meant to be more "grounded" comes from the same place as a lot of the writing, where the idea of superheroes wearing costumes in the first place is made fun of.

Superhero costumes don't look good in general, no matter how many embellishments they add.

>>153314764
It’s not just that though. You have to understand that due to union obligations they literally NEED to hire designers and if they don’t redesign the things significantly then they have to pay and name the original comic artist. So basically Hollywood has made it so they have to ignore the source material in most cases otherwise they don’t fulfill legal obligations.

Twenty-some years ago I was watching a behind-the-scenes feature on the X-Men 1.5 DVD where the costume designers are working on the costumes and one of them says something like “this would be so much easier if they were the T-Men”. Years later I see this meme and always wondered if there was a correlation.

Hollywood has a love-hate relationship with superheroes for a few reasons:

>capeshit was pretty much made by working-class Anglos and Jews, the natural enemies of wealthier Anglos and Jews who work in the film industry
>capeshit straddles the line between grounded dramatic pulp fiction and fantasy-fairy tale, which makes it have more in common with a cartoon (something normies struggle to emotionally connect to)
>for the most part, capeshit was made by and for men, is male-dominated, and isn't really concerned with women's domestic life and the specific type of social maneuvering found in their fiction (so women dislike it)
>capeshit is by its nature, extremely libertarian (or outright fascist), which scares Hollywood liberals
>a lot of boomers working in Hollywood resent capeshit for stealing the spotlight from trashy comedies and westerns

>>153315454
This is one of the reasons why capeshit movies RARELY adapt comic storylines 1:1 and tend to pull from alternate continuity stories, notable events, comic retellings, or film/TV adaptations that loosely adapt storylines. Anything to avoid paying the original creator.

It's why Lucasfilm won't really do anything with Star Wars and mine the EU for content because nearly all of the EU creators are alive (which is why they do their best to avoid paying royalties to them).
>>
At the same time I am exhausted of the look, it's not like any given comic costume design is anything to be so fervent about preserving a 100% direct adaptation, I don't care how overblown your fandom is. Executing anywhere along the gradient of "first X-Men movie costumes, absolute dereliction" to "body paint and strongman belt, slavish devotion" in adapting a design to another medium is a matter of taste. And what the actors chosen are willing to wear, in the case for live action film. You have that, and the calculus against the movie-going audience to contend with.
So this example of someone's taste in art direction worked well enough that it has now become a shorthand on its own. One that a majority of contemporaries have copied. Andy was savvy to land where he did for the template, it was "good enough" for two decades of slop.
But maybe if other previous film ventures did comparable numbers we'd be bemoaning living in an era of nothing but carbon copies of Schumaker's drag and rubber suits instead. You fucking cowards weren't nutting up enough to go patronize that era of film enough, clearly.

I fucking hate Hollywood's aversion to embrace the weird campy shit that makes superheroes fun. Batman in the latest Reeves movie almost feels out of place being the only one of the four costumed characters who looks anything resembling a preexisting Bat-design; Zodiac Riddler is a fucking terrible design, Catwoman just looks like a normal thief with an ill-fitting burglar mask, and Penguin is just Some Guy.
>>
>>153314764
On one hand, I think they deviate too far. On the other, there's a clear issue with adapting a lot of costumes to the screen. It's brightly colored spandex designed for worlds where the artists have complete control over every color, and is then vacuumed sealed onto bodies that are amongst the top end of humanity, or bodies that often break human proportion altogether. Some degree of adaptation is always required.

I think it's fine for human characters with no powers, or if they work with the military, but I would prefer a stark contrast to powered heroes doing their own thing. I hate that Thor already had 'tacticool' options to choose from in the comics, but they decided to use materials that looked like plastic instead of armour.

Hang on a second, 78's Superman was also shot with a color grading, lighting scheme, and general color palette that served to make the suit pop out as unusual without clashing with the world around it and even then, designing the suit to work well was no easy feat, Yvonne Blake herself describe the process as an anxious headache.

When it comes to something like the MCU, the real challenge lies in getting all these heroes with all these color schemes and aesthetics to work in tandem to all fit with no one feeling out of place.
It's pretty apples and oranges in that particular regard
>>
>>153323329
See, but again, Tokusatsu is also a stunt-heavy genre in which the characters move in a very theatrical and operatic way. Even when stationary, the characters are posing or making various gestures with their arms as they speak akin to what you'd see in a live stage show. There are tons of creative sets and special effects with lighting and color grade emphasized . Everything about the visuals of a henshin/sentai tokusatsu is supposed to "pop" and the suits are built to this principle. There's a clear divide where the calmer "day-to-day" always happens out of costume and the characters in-universe are often deliberately putting on a showy act of heroism when they express in costume.
In something like the Avengers or Justice League, the moments between action scenes where the characters aren't suited up are typically meant to feel toned down and day-to-day.

There are problems with the MCU type costumes and they can get overdone as hell, but what you're asking for also has a huge amount of caveats.

Ideally a costume looks good, that's sort of the starting point. You want an appealing design for an appealing character. But then you have to consider tone, setting, character, and your costume needs more. In the modern day, for a gritty and moody war story with Captain America, you'd be shooting yourself in the foot if you had him walking around in the ol Red White and Blue pajamas. If you wanted a light hearted, BatB type of campy fun Batman, you wouldn't want him wearing one of his more recent costumes that're edgy and tactical and painful looking. Bringing supers to live action requires keeping everything level, and sure suspension of disbelief is an effective tool but you probably want things to be in-universe realistic. They wanted Spider-Man to have the moving eyes, but also have a homemade costume. They made the homemade one just have goggles, then a high tech one with focusing eyes. Choices like that add up, even if you don't like the Iron Man carry (I don't either). I don't want the movies to be too ashamed of their origins either, you can have your heroes no longer running around in underpants and capes without forcing a script scenario to go "haha how stupid would THAT be?" If you don't level things out though you end up having your serious moments look like picrel.
>>
>>153324421
In a studio, a studio that has been lit with a specific camera angle in mind.

That's my point. Filming centered around a singular costume is easier to make it look good but the MCU costumes had to be designed around remembering they'd all be sharing a screen.

You want a really good example of what I'm talking about? Look up the original Xenomorph costume. It's got a number of notable differences from what it looks like in the movie. You can make out where padding and prosthetic has been added vs where it's just regular fabric. You can make out various workings of the suit and where the different shades of black are. And famously, the head is translucent.

It literally only works because of the colossal effort of filming every angle, lighting, and color grading around it, and in recent HD releases, the illusion slips a bit more. Particularly in the scene where its napping before Ripley shoots it into space.
This is how movie costumes work. You have to design them not just around how they look but coordinate how they will be filmed. And a shit ton of comic accurate costumes would clash with each other like all hell unless they got streamlined.

>Super Sentai
I mean, not really a great example given that most of the better looking Sentai outfits aren't just spandex (as you're already showing), and that Super Sentai is oriented much more towards younger audiences. Other tokusatsu then usually forgo straight spandex, with Kamen Rider always having some degree of plastic armor, or Metal Heroes just going all out.
>including literally Spider-Man
Spider-Man's actually one of the easier ones to give a pass in live-action, as his depiction had shifted to be a lot leaner in the comics over the years, and it's more about the dynamic poses than physique, which the Toei series suit actor did with. Even the colors are usually more passable since he's got one of the most acrobatic and showman-y powersets out there. The man is quite literally a clown.

Wait shit, I meant to say you often have more toned-down moments where the characters are often in costume.
>>153327744
Okay, I can actually sum this up.
You work at the MCU.
You have
>Captain America's brightly colored classic costume, made from whatever materials
>Black Widow's black leather spy suit
>Hawkeye's classic purple outfit with the mask and everything, be it bright or dark.
>Iron Man's shining cgi outfit, or hell, combo CGI-practical
>Thor's classic outfit, studded, made from whatever materials

Now, figure out the lighting, cinematography and color grade that will make literally all of these work in a single shared shot without clashing with each other too much.

And that is before you get them to a point where Winter Soldier, who has always been a bit tacticool, shows up as well as GOTG, Dr Strange's more esoteric flowing outfit, et cetera.

I'm not saying the particular MCU style hasn't gotten annoying or that it was the best option but some kind of streamlining between the costumes was absolute necessity because the heroes all have to share shots. And before you post a cosplay photoshoot, filming them in motion, contrasted to backdrops, factors in too
>>
>>153328167
>Wait shit, I meant to say you often have more toned-down moments where the characters are often in costume.
Okay, so I'll say that's exactly the problem. This is exactly part of the reason why the superhero dual identity thing exists, because most of them are intentionally projecting a theatrical image of heroism while in costume, while going about their day-to-day lives in their real identities. Toned-down moments should be out of costume unless there's a reason otherwise. But these idiots don't understand why real identities and hero identities are separate in the first place, and try to create "solutions" for problems that only exist because of their ignorance.
>Now, figure out the lighting, cinematography and color grade that will make literally all of these work in a single shared shot without clashing with each other too much.
Older movies had colorful settings and characters all the time and figured all that out just fine. The problem is retards putting in the bare minimum because "we'll fix it in post" (it never gets fixed in post). Again, "solutions" to problems they caused in the first place.

MCU shit is shot and always was shot on fucking video, digital video sure, HD sure, but it was still on fucking video, it would never move or look as good as shot on celluloid, but on top it all, the color grading on this trashy films has always been garbage, let alone the lighting, everything is shot like a goddamn sitcom but with actions, and looks flat.

It sure won't fix the garbage writing and mocking tone, but at least give us something pleasent to look.

>>153328264
A lot of older movies were filmed not just with brighter color grading on more colorful sets.
Put Black Widow, War Machine, Dr. Strange, and Punisher on that and they'll stick like sore thumbs within the larger composition of a shot.
Which is precisely my point.
I'm not asking "how do you make comic accurate costume work?"

I'm asking "How do you make this wide array of character costumes with vastly different designs that would be made with a large variety of materials all share a screen? What is the specific lighting, color grade, and cinematography that gets this to work?"
You pointed to Tokusatsu but the characters in a tokusatsu show are already streamlined to one another when sharing the screen.
Costumes in movies are always designed in the mind of how you have to film them, meaning the costumes need to all be streamlined to filming. The bright colorful ones, the darker tacticool ones, and everything in between. All streamlined so they can share shots.
If they didn't do that, the composition would clash with itself while the lighting and color departments would get a fucking migraine trying to find out what set-up manages to work for all of them at the same time.
This is how live-action films work, it's an extremely technical medium.

Okay I'm not gonna lie, yeah that looks way fucking better than the movie proper. Like I'm well aware of the muted grey issue on color grade.

But I still can't see something like not doing a degree of streamlining costumes in terms of shades and materials.

Also yeah the writing is shit.

Toei films mass crossover movies constantly. Sentai crosses over with Metal Heroes. Sentai crosses over with Kamen Rider. All three crossover together. Mass anniversary crossovers happen where literally every Kamen Rider since 1979 all share the screen together. Fucking Inazuman gets in on the action in one of them. There are tons of varied designs with varied materials trying to evoke varied themes, and it all just works visually because they actually took the time to figure it out. This isn't a case where Marvel filmed a bunch of completely different standalone movies and then mashed them all together later, they wanted a shared MCU centered around the Avengers crossover movies from the beginning. So again, this is them fucking up making things work and you inventing excuses for their fuck-ups. No shit live action films are technical, so why is it that a small (relatively speaking compared to other major media companies) Japanese company making toy adverts for kids is able to figure it out when literally the largest movie company on the planet can't? It's just laziness, no other reason.

That's because there's not a lot of examples of a large group of superheroes made comic accurate, both because a franchise has to last long enough to get to that point, and the makers need to have that vision in mind rather than making the MCU style tacticool gear.
Just seeing footage of random cosplay groups moving about also makes me think they should just go for comic accuracy.
Even Kickass 2 where costumes were intentionally a little crap still looked good with the characters all clustered together..

Okay, so on the 1970s.
Remember what I said here?
>It literally only works because of the colossal effort of filming every angle, lighting, and color grading around it, and in recent HD releases, the illusion slips a bit more. Particularly in the scene where its napping before Ripley shoots it into space.
This is where filming really becomes an art form because a lot of shit genuinely looks worse now largely because of technological advancement rather than despite it.
You watch a lot of remasters of classic films especially from the 60s and 70s and depending on how much effort was put in, they can look genuinely great or genuinely shit because they were filmed to a technology of the time they came out and what would show in the shot on that technology.

Yvonne Brown basically fucking slaved on the '78 costume and making it work both to film and to Reeves physique. The MCU literally uses CGI to remove wrinkles in post which often makes the costumes feel like they aren't even real as a result.
Another anon posted modern recreations of the '78 suit showing it still works pretty well on modern equipment, but I get the distinct feeling it's still ultimately something you only could have gotten out of that particular era of film where they'd be both willing to risk how a suit like that could look on camera and willing to go all in on practical without access to CGI in post

>Put Black Widow, War Machine, Dr. Strange, and Punisher on that
The only one that might be wonky is War Machine and that's because it's a metal suit, but you can still make it work. The other three can easily work together in the same shot. You're severely overestimating how much one superhero costume clashes with another superhero costume.

I literally said it works today. Hell, I basically just said "It was only something that could have been made in the 70s because the 70s put way more effort into that kind of stuff since they didn't have the same amount of room to fix it in post".
That's largely agreement with your side of things I'd imagine
>>153328979
The specific context here is a super bright colorful shot but I do see what you mean when those are pretty uniform.
What I'm thinking though is like.
The materials for a comic accurate Dr.Strange right? Kinda looser fit at the sleeves, needs to have a more esoteric feel to it.
Then you get the materials for something like a Black Widow, and that's gonna be like this tight fitting, kinda shiny leather look. It's gonna be a very different material that would have to be shot very differently from whatever you put Dr. Strange in.

To me, that kind of thing is where streamlining has to happen.

Is the way they added lines to literally everything retarded? Yes. But I can absolutely see why they underwent that concept of figuring out a streamlining between costumes.

>>153329083
I mean... I wonder if there aren't really any 70s movies with someone in colorful clothes right next to someone in leather.
>>
>>153329711
I don't know about the 70s, but color mixed with leather, off the top of my head, Mystery Men, Kickass, and everything by Tim Burton.

I feel like I should like this costume but for some reason it never did much for me

They all just want to pull a batman Nolan trilogy where the suits are logical tactical armor colored like the superhero's suit, but it only makes sense for batman since he's a regular guy and his color scheme isn't stupid, especially when the bat symbol lacks the yellow part.

Wow. It works because they did their job and cared?! Crazy!

I understand your point but this mentality leads to MCU costume design problem where they all look the same, are made of the same materials, have the same lines/geometric patterns, all look like the same person made them despite some characters originating from alien worlds, etc.

There SHOULD be different colors, tones, materials and otherwise among the costumes because it should be a bunch of weird individual characters coming together, not a bunch of people who go to the same tailor and end up with a bland, homogenized look among them.

(nta) characters for sure shouldn't like they all went to the same costumer, but an overarching style should be consistent. Ideally you feel the difference between Iron Man, Ant Man, Spider-Man and Human Torch; you should recognize them as different characters with different backgrounds even if they're all different flavors of Some Jerk In A Suit. If there's too much clash it's more in line with Spider-verse or Who Framed Rodger Rabbit, where if it's unintended it's a distracting difference. I feel like DC would be easier to fuck up with that in mind though. Something like the latest Blue Beetle would be jarring with the newest Superman and, say, Ezra's Flash. They're all a take at a new, "real" look for the costumes, but they convey different realities. With Marvel, honestly, I feel like Guardians of the Galaxy did a lot of cushioning between that feeling of mixed genres in a cast.

Whenever they do "classic costumes", the MCU always make them look like shitty Halloween costumes, imagine if these fuckers would design the Batman suit, it would be worse then the 1940s serials suits, and those and the West one at least had the excuse of one being done in the 40s when the sense of mythos haven't yet stabliashed for pop culture and the latter it was an intentional comedy but in good spirits without any cynical type of self awareness or subversion.

Doesn't help that whenever the MCU do the classic suits badly, again, ON PORPUSSE, they always out the actors to make dopey faces.

He's probably mostly talking about stuff like the tv shows. They exist for ten seconds and made intentionally bad so the character can say 'Isn't this dumb' and then disregard it forever.

All this fucking thread is proving is that capeshit was never good and only for ugly retards who never get any pussy. Costumes and superpowers are corny ass shit. Just get a gun and shoot rogs.

You do get they're just gonna use a LLM fed his work right? It's not gonna result in a fundamental change, much less an improvement.

A complete refusal to ever be 'camp' has always been my biggest gripe with the MCU. Even dumber considering they'd always inject into each film and series too. As far as Andy Park and the rest of the visual development team goes, though, I do feel bad for them.

Why are people so afraid of doing something like this?

Live action adaptations of anything with an established artstyle are inehrently and objectively bad.
