For the record the old TMNT cartoon is also mostly loving horrid. They had a pretty strong first five episode season and season 2 was acceptable but a combination of censored violence and increasingly lazy writing makes it unwatchable for the majority of its run. Kids love trash.

Acne Rain posted:I don't really care about the power rangers movie either but the costumes are breathtakingly terrible no matter what they're supposed to be, like I bet if I asked someone to make lovely costume designs for five heroes and a villain on purpose it would take talent to get ones HALF as garbage looking as these. Honestly, if you showed me this and told me they decided to make Loki a woman, I'd believe you.

What's kind of dumb is that it's Elizabeth Banks. She has such comedy chops that could really sell the cackling witch Rita Repulsa from the show. Like that costume would actually be pretty funny if she was in the big witch get-up from the show and this was her entering battle. But that's probably not going to be what happens.

Wanamingo posted:Apparently there's going to be a new Power Rangers movie This looks like when they take a 10 year old's drawing and gently make fun of it by translating it too accurately into 3D, like that Goku with a billion abs and biceps. The weird shaky lines with no clear purpose covering every bit of space, the weightless boobs that someone clearly spent a lot of time on but still couldn't get right, the weird proportions

I kind of suspect the artist started from DAZ/Poser figures and modeled all that crap around them, which only exaggerates their basic wonky anatomy. Aside from that yeah those are just way too drat busy, like the robot designs in Michael Bay's Transformers movies.

For me the real cherry is that every helmet is just slightly different, as if their uniforms being a completely different colours wasn't quite enough to distinguish them from each other.

That's straight from the show, though, each one is themed after their own unique dinosaur. It works a lot better when the outfits aren't so busy, it gets lost among the greebles here.

What are the chances that's just Rita's Battle suit and that she starts the movie in frumpy witch dress we know and love?

I didn't notice this at first, but there are subtle differences – aside from the normal stuff like the above – between the various uniforms that give each a bit individuality. Take the Yellow Ranger, for example. The texture on her suit is the most fur-like of the bunch, which makes sense given that her zord is a sabertooth tiger.

Ghostlight posted:I actually forgot all about that theme entirely because their helmets manage to be so busy you can't really notice any differences but the slightly different visors. It's a lot more effective when they have the teeth edging to convey that it's supposed to be an animal head. The worst thing about these new costumes has to be the helmets. There's just nothing to them that even gives you a hint of motif and they all blend together. I love how distinct each of the original helmets were, and yes I'm the guy that doesn't mind the lips.  It's a shame they went with that pseudo Iron Man look when they should have been ripping off Deadpool instead.

I feel like the proportions of the power ranger suit are integral to their visual identity. Throughout redesign after redesign, the sentai have always had a lean body and a big bike helmet. Giving them chunky muscular armor makes them not look like power rangers anymore.

It's clear they're doing whatever the gently caress they want and hoping it works out like Michael bay's transformers. Which is fine. The costumes are just really loving terrible on their own merits. Bay's transformers didn't look like anything but they weren't the audience appeal characters, more like giant talking disasters or something. And they didn't have glowing plastic boobs either.

And they didn't have glowing plastic boobs either. The problem with that sort of costume/character design is that it generally is really awesome to look at in stills (at least when done well):  ... but not so much when it's animated, your brain has no time to get a grip on what it's seeing so you have a gigantic clusterfuck of visual gibberish.

Which is why the Bay movie Transformer toys don't look as bad as the films themselves, because as static pieces (well, and things that have to obey physics and actually change from one thing to another without being taken apart), the designs are able to be visually parsed.

This is something that really came across in the toys. America and Japan both have almost opposite ideas of what a hero looks like so you would get slim, athletic Sentai toys and ripped, strong Ranger toys.

Batman's new protegee, Duke gets his not-Robin costume revealed in Batman Rebirth #1 Which is a bit of a shame, cause I really liked his improvised Robin costume from the last year.  Also, are we doing bat-head knees again? C'mon.
