I think it's a rule that from here on out costumes have to be either CGI or basketball texture.

His hair though, kinda has a George Reeves vibe to it.

I agree, but that Fleishcer-styled background is pretty cool.

I still think the Spider-man movies would be better served by a more home-made looking costume. It would probably even look creepier and at the very least be consistent with the comics.

Peter Parker is supposed to have limited resources right?

Man, that is one murky, dull-looking promo pic.

If you've seen the shots of Bane and Catwoman from The Dark Knight Rises, those aren't looking too hot either.

He's going to have a tough time tucking that cape in when he changes to clark kent.

Naw, the Bane picture for Batman Rises looks cool. Hathaway's Catwoman is the one that looks bad.

This picture is okay. This Superman looks more intimidating than the skinny guy with soft features they used for Superman Returns.

But it kind of looks like a guy pretending to be Superman. Like one of the guys from Goodfellas, except in shape. The dude that they cast as Thor looks like he could be straight from the comics. I think that's the only guy who in a comic book movie that actually looks like his counterpart.

I thought most of the people in the first X-Men movie looked about right. The only sore thumbs were Toad and Mystique.

I'm seeing a lot of comments on line about the length of his cape. I think this means you won't see him simply standing on the ground I think he's going to be mostly shown flying or floating above the ground while in dialogue mode. Or getting up like he is in that pic.

Anybody familiar with live-action superheroes knows that when Adam West and Burt Ward sat down in the Batmobile, they were wearing capes that barely went past their shoulder blades. Even Brad Bird is smart enough to pick up on the physical realities of dealing with a cape. Snyder directed the Watchmen movie, he should remember Dollar Bill.

I forgot about X-Men.

Even though I picture Magneto looking more like Marlon Brando with white hair and built, the McKellan looked pretty close.

Only one's I didn't think looked straight out the comic was Rogue, Toad of course, and Jean Grey.

None of the Bat guys look like Wayne but atleast Bale had the body type right in the first film.
