Lord Liaden Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Rambeau's suit was striking and distinctive, and worked well with her hair and skin coloring. But Mar-Vell's blue-red-gold outfit is one of the classic superhero designs IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zslane Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 I don't feel that the worst thing about the suit we're shown is its color scheme. To my eyes, it's the overall design, it's cut if you will. It's just not flattering or attractive. But then, maybe that initial green one is supposed to be some kind of Kree spacesuit, and her supersuit (the blue and red one) will look more appropriately superhero-ish.

Pattern Ghost Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 I was wondering if it was supposed to be some kind of uniform or flight suit. Seems more baggy than your typical super suit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my first thought, that she's wearing a Kree military uniform. Mark me down as another Monica Rambeau fan. Loved the costume and the character.

Bazza Posted January 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 I have read that Captain Marvel will be going through some of Carol's many costumes as a tribute to them. But the green one is not one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Liaden Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 New set photo of Wasp's outfit looks brighter than what we saw previously. Maybe the lighting is better. https://i.pinimg.com/564x/b7/33/b1/b733b12e7630c689abffb0dd21939eb3.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher R Taylor Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 Well and raw footage of filming is never the same as the final color-adjusted product, either. They always doctor lighting and color saturation and tinting for scenes and effects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zslane Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 When overlit it tends towards dark blue (rather than black), and for all we know it will get a shift towards dark blue in the final comp treatment. But it is still too dark with too little color in it for my tastes. Look at all the red mixed in with the silver for Ant-Man's costume. The lack of color in the Wasp costume is highly conspicuous by comparison. I mean, I suppose they are going for contrast between them, but that creates an incongruent break in the design aesthetics of the two suits. Their suits won't visually convey the sense that they are a team; the only common element being the fact that they both wear a helmet.

Lord Liaden Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 And are usually bug-sized. OTOH Hank Pym and Jan Pym/Van Dyne haven't had remotely similar costume designs since the early 1960s. Come to think of it, few comic superhero partners have had matching outfits: not Batman and Robin, Cap and the Falcon, Power Man and Iron Fist, Icon and Rocket, Cloak and Dagger. Green Arrow and Green Lantern were at least the same color. Hawk and Dove were an example of a close thematic/stylistic match, but they were created at the same time to be a duo.

zslane Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Oh I know, but Hawkeye and Black Widow were given similar blackops uniforms to visually connect them (another nod to their Ultimates incarnations, I feel). Now, it would be a bad idea to make the Ant-Man and Wasp costumes identical (or even nearly so), but they are so different from each other that they don't even look like they come from the same movie/sub-franchise, much less from the same technology (and minds that created it).

This looks like a lot of fun, very much a sequel to the original Ant-Man in tone and style. Looks like we'll also be getting creative uses of size-changing. (As one person I read today put it, if we thought any superhero would use a Hello Kitty Pez dispenser as a weapon, it would have been Deadpool.)
