I hope they use transformer-like effects for Cyborg when he's moving, that armour looks like it.

The Flash has a long neck and I'm actually really digging the new Batman armor, just wish it was more grey.

Come to think of it isn't that more armored than the one in the trailer?

Butt first, let's

Besides Superman bring the inevitable #6 whenever he resurrects I'm assuming #7 will be GL either to setup the future movie or come from it. But I'm kind of guessing that the 5 they're showing are just the ones Batman can gather from Lex's files but GL will interject himself in whatever space threat they fight the same way Wonder Woman did mid movie.

That makes an appropriate 7 person league, even with no J'onn.

He has his BvS outfit, and then presumably at some point he goes "okay, poo poo's gotten out of hand here, I'm gonna need something a little tougher" and has that thing.

The goggles look hilarious.

I'd guess they're winding up for a trailer soon if they're putting out this image. Gonna assume the ramp is going to lower and there's going to be that shot of them all in line before the title, and the button will be a shot of Superman waking up or appearing evil or some poo poo.

One thing I really liked about Dawn of Justice was the implication that Batman had been active for decades but because he was just dealing with criminals and loonies in Gotham everyone outside of Gotham either had no idea or talked about him like some urban legend or random whackjob. It wasn't until Superman that poo poo got serious and Batman entered the major leagues so now he's gotta upgrade everything.

Agreed. The Flash doesn't look imo. Also Cyborg and Aquaman are poor choices next to John Stewart GL and Martian Manhunter.

I do not know why they chose to put The Flash in super armor, as far as I know the Flash has never worn armor as it makes no sense to put a character that goes fast in a heavy and burdensome costume.

There's a fan theory/hope that this is like a temporary "this is literally the only material we have on hand that doesn't vaporize as soon as Flash moves fast" kind of thing and that he has something sleeker for most of the story. Either way it looks real poor.

There are so few characters that need a tactical realism explanation for their superhero costume but Flash definitely needs one even less. He goes super fast. That's his deal. Needing him to have a special suit to do his thing is a very strange and specific focus for one's need to have things be realistic.

He didn't skip leg day. Important for a running superhero. Dude did put on a bit of weight/muscle for the role, but not in the same way Cavill or Momoa did.

I think Flash can run fast even if wears plate mail because of the Speed Force, according to some comic or other.

In the comics I grew up with his spandex-looking suit was even armour made out of pure Speed Force, because the Flash doesn't have enough powers.

Flash's suit looks like armor in the Injustice comic and video game: https://www.google.com/search?q=the...eo+game&imgrc=_

With the way they've been playing out the overarching narrative spanning Man of Steel through Suicide Squad, part of me hopes they are heading towards the Injustice storyline (or at least a story inspired by it), and then the DCEU will somehow pivot back to Flashpoint Paradox or something.

Also, just a reminder that Flash is going to have multiple looks in Justice League. The suit that's been prominently used in promotional materials is the one Barry jerry-rigged himself. Apparently he's going to have a suit that has a more traditional look provided by Wayne Tech later in the film. http://screenrant.com/justice-league-set-visit-details/?view=all

quote:

Like Batman and Cyborg, The Flash will have more than one ‘look’ in Justice League. Concept art spoiled that he’ll have a superhero costume built by “Wayne Tech” later in the movie – a costume that matches the official movie concept art – but the primary costume Ezra Miller’s Barry Allen wears is something he made himself. He’s already The Flash by the time Bruce Wayne meets him.

The Flash looks fine to me, he could use more red in his torso but I like most of what's going on with him including his goofy wide-eyed expression compared to everyone's cold glowering.

Also Ray Fisher is like 1.9 meters and easily taller than pretty much everyone else there barring I think Affleck, how is he the shortest guy?

Which is dumb because in the BvS clip he did something in regular clothes and they were fine.

It is a bad costume.

Momoa is 1.93m, Affleck is 1.92m. Fisher is at least four inches taller than Miller and Gadot, he's really getting shortchanged there.

I don't see why "clothes that don't catch on fire/shred to pieces over a certain friction value" is a bridge too far when some of the other options include literal magic and alien hypertech. It's Space Shuttle-style ceramic heat plating, that's actually a really cool and unique take that plays up the character's intelligence and resourcefulness.

It's ultimately window dressing; at the speeds The Flash runs, the problem is preventing nuclear fusion as he collides with air particles.

How fast does movie Flash run? I know comic Flash runs between mach 6 and 600 billion times the speed of light.
