He then suggested that a full reveal of the most awesome car in the history of cars would come the next day. Around the same time someone on twitter said they couldn't wait to see the costumes to be sported by Batman and Wonder Woman in the movie, mentioning the films costume designer, who then responded with a mention of 'soon'. The next day, BOOM;
I don't know what to say. Both Batman and the Batmobile look like they've stepped right off the page. Snyder has always been a wonderfully visual director, so trust him to give us a Batman that could translate literally to or from a comic book. He looks amazing. The suit builds upon the suits we've seen on film before, but gives us something we've never seen. The symbol on the chest is big and elegant. The belt looks like a genuine utility belt, while the gauntlets look like genuine gauntlets. The cowl and cape seem to be one piece. The Batmobile look practically like a spaceship. I know with Snyder mentioning THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS as an influence on the movie everyone was expecting a giant Bat-tank, but the fact that this Batmobile looks so different from Miller's version of the vehicle, and the suit only has comparable elements to Miller's Batsuit's, I think emphasizes the fact that that book is influence material not source material.
I can't wait for this movie, I've been excited for it my whole life, and now it's happening. Superman's costume will be seeing some revisions for this movie, and I look forward to seeing what those changes are. But if I'm being honest I really, truly, can't wait to see what Wonder Woman looks like. This will be our first big screen, live-action, Wonder Woman. This look at the films Batman, and knowing the style of Superman and the Kryptonians from MAN OF STEEL, just makes me more excited to see the Amazon of Amazon's for the first time.
