@@PanelstoPixels 😿
Loved this video and your takes on these costumes! For me, I know a lot can be (and has been) said about the rest of the movie, but I'll always admire Far From Home for committing to an accurate Mysterio look with his snow globe head and purple cape and all.
Thanks Xavier! Mysterio was very close to making this list. If it was Top 11, he'd be on there for sure.
I forgot about that one it’s so great and I’d you take the armour off it is the comic outfit but I like the armour
I like the fact that the "theatricality" of the costume factored into the plot. And how, after the reveal, his costume was just a mo-cap suit with a globe-screen to display his UI. The rest of the film isn't that great, though (IMO).
I think Psylocke from Age Of Apocalypse is one of the most accurate costumes. Deadpool too.
Homer says "Mmmmmmmm. Psyyyylocke"
I love the way that the wolverine costume is also coloured to resemble the brown and orange colours that he wore in the 1980s
Wow, somehow I don't think this ever occurred to me. That's so cool.
That no way home suit is freaking GOATED
It literally took my breath away when I saw it in theatres. Masterpiece!
@@joshualeon3223 the only thing that would make it perfect is having the old school back logo like with his civil war suit
Not really a costume, but Khonshu from Moon Knight is one of the most perfect adaptations of a comicbook character. Perfectly captures both the divine and creepy essence of a mad god
I love the Deadpool suit despite the leathery look to it. The first set photo I saw of it made me say “of course that’s how it’s look irl, it’s perfect!”
Cool list! Personally I'll think the suit cap wears in "endgame" would be perfect if they hadn't muted the color on it so kuch. If the blue and red was just a couple shades lighter I thunk it would be perfect.
I agree with the Christopher Reeve version being the iconic Superman.
Man, The Rocketeer never gets any love. Dude is a Superhero too, damnit.
Best Cap suit is the one in Endgame 100%. They pulled off the fish scales...THE SCALES
I really like Andrew’s second Spider-Man suit. It’s one of my favourite superhero costumes ever put to screen, calling cosplay does sit well for me. I also love Tobey’s suit as well. The only thing missing on those suits is the round spider which was used only once on the stark suit, not even new red and blue suit has it. I wonder why costume designers don’t like it.
Weirdly enough, I think cap is one of the characters that work just fine in military tactical gear
I'm mixed on it, to be honest. Narratively, it makes sense and I don't see how they could pull it off any other way. But the comics design is so iconic and a huge part of the appeal of the character. To me, it's like having Superman's costume be jeans and a T-shirt.
One of my favorite live action costume designs which I also find underrated has to be the Flash from the 90s TV show, it follows similar principles to Reeves Superman in its simplicity, and it has for me atleast not been topped by any other Flash costume since even.
I love that one
Same here. My one nitpick is the boots. I would've put lightning bolts on the top or gone with the classic yellow boots.
Really good video and an interesting topic! My favourite costume would be Raimi Trilogy Spider-Man because it was my first introduction to the character when I was just a little kid and it had a deep effect on me and lighted my passion for super heroes, my favourite part of this costume is the pointy eyes, i think it gives a lot of personality and looks really cool!
Love the raimi spidey suit. It has a sense of power to it that I'm not sure how to describe.
I agree that Spider-Man suit is iconic
Thanks! Yep, the Raimi suit is classic in its own way. I remember not liking it when it first came out because it deviated from the version I was familiar with. I love it now though.
All those pouches on Cap's costume, are you sure Rob Liefeld didn't have a hand in designing that? 😂
I suppose this probably doesn’t count as a superhero movie necessarily but I think I’d have to include the Del Toro Hellboy look. The amount of time and energy (not to mention makeup) that went into making Ron Perlman Anung Un Rama was insane and can’t be overstated. That effort is really shown when you compare it to the remake’s seeming lack of interest in making him look good
Agreed about the Superman cape, it should never be too long, that's Batman's thing. The same goes for Captain Marvel (Shazam).
I love your comparisons to Greek mythology and this video is really good
Thank you!
“No weird basketball textures.”
YES!!! I thought I was the only one who thought those looked weird and uncomfortable.😂
Great picks, Josh! I’d like to give a shoutout to Batfleck’s suit in BvS. It comes close to perfection if it just had the trunks.
No trunks, no dice. Thanks man, I appreciate it!
I would've put the First Class suits on the list, perfect "adaption" of the classic 60s costumes without looking plain.
I always thought that the stitching from Catwoman’s costume represented her sanity and how it’s barely being threaded together.
My favorite suits from the X-Men are the suits they get at the very end of Apocalypse. They are so comic accurate, but unique and grounded at the same time. My personal highlights are Quicksilver, Nightcrawler, and Cyclops
Edit: The Flash's Season 7 suit in the CW show is a perfect translation of The Flash in live action imo, and Robert Pattinson's suit in The Batman is the best way to modernize a classic. They lean into his silhouette, but add functionality in the details
I love that the original Iron Man movie suit made it into this list I love that mk 3 Iron Man armor
Still the best one, exactly perfect ratio of red-to-gold.
A look I love is Thomas Jane’s Punisher costume. He looks like he stepped right off the pages of the MAX books
That's not even really a costume.
@@tyetr9853 neither is Logan’s street clothes to be honest but it’s on his list.
@@KiteAsHigh Yes true, but bro punisher's is legit just a T-shirt. Atleast Logan has all those layers along with his hairstyle.
10:56 I miss when mogies had actual Iron Man costumes where actual practical suits were made instead of being just CGI stuff that doesn't exist like nowadays in films like Thor love and thunder
I just wish the end of No Way Home featured Mr. Dimcovitch yelling "RENT!"
I'd love to see cap have the wings on the sides of his helmet
Honestly one of my favorite live action costumes was and still is the Black Suited Spider-Man costume from Spider-Man 3. It was just so slick, black and cool looking plus it made Spider-Man look and be waay stringer than his previous suit did.
A close second was the Mark 2 Armour from Iron Man 2
A third was Thomas Jane's Punisher outfit in the 2004 Punisher movie,just the all black clothes with the long black trench coat combined with the faded punisher logo on his chest just screamed BADASS
So I'm with you on the Christopher Reeves Super-suit, the Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman outfit, the Aquaman armor and the Nicholson Joker duds - but here, in no particular order, are the other six of MY top ten:
Blade's tactical gear from 'Blade'. One of the most effective and iconic redesigns EVER, turning an obscure Marvel supporting character into an enduring icon of badass. (Alongside Wesley Snipes' performance, of course. But an awesome costume always helps a guy get into character.)
The Rocketeer suit from 'The Rocketeer'. Alongside Reeve's outfit, probably the absolute most faithfully adapted comics outfit EVER. They literally changed only one thing - the design of the jetpack - and that actually improved it, so no complaints.
The Bat-suit from 'Batman Returns'. Yes, I know he still can't move his neck, but regardless, this is my favorite Bat-suit - bold, simple and awesome.
Eric Draven's outfit from 'The Crow'. It's amazing how iconic some tight black street clothes, a trench coat and some chunky boots can become with the addition of some face-paint and a few bullet holes.
V's costume from 'V for Vendetta'. Another extremely faithful page-to-screen adaptation - all they did was tweak a few design elements, and it was perfect. (And, of course, the mask carries the film.)
The skull-bikers from 'Batman Returns'. (Can you guess which is my favorite comic book movie?) Yes, they're technically only background characters, but can you name a more iconic supervillain goon than these guys, considering how briefly they're actually onscreen? I mean, they're bikers in Victorian clown outfits wearing helmets shaped like giant skulls, complete with little bobbly eyes in the sockets - never has so much time and effort gone into the visual design of throwaway thugs for Batman to punch.
after seeing the list I'm surprised Cesar Romero's Joker wasn't on it
That and Joaquin Phoenix are honourable mentions, for sure.
Thor's costume in the 1st movie with the helmet which was never seen again in the other movies. The helmet was cool as hell. In the comics Thor would get it knocked off but would always pick it back up. Let's face it with the helmet he's a Viking God without it he's a biker with a sledgehammer.
I miss pre MCU marvel movies man
Great video, as always. Great analysis too.
Blade's costume from the first movie was a great modernization of a lesser known comic book character. The outfit looked both functional and bad ass at the same time and the leather trench coat and sunglasses made it pop even more.
Deadpool was another fantastic costume. Granted the character has had several looks over his comic career but the movie nailed an icon look complete with the expressive eyes before Spider-Man got them in Civil War. Shoot there's even a montage scene dedicated to him making changes perfecting his costume!
Not sure if it's considered a "superhero" movie but the Robocop costume was outrageously good. Long before Iron Man, this costume was damn near perfect. You have to remind yourself that there's an actor in there because it is so believable that they took what remained of Alex Murphy and made him a cyborg. Scenes like the data spike in his fist and the gun concealed in his thigh were done so well you didn't even question it.
Please do a follow up to this video with a counterpoint of 10 worst costumes highlighting atrocious fails. Sorry Clooney but I'm calling it now that the bat nipples are on that list.
Really like the blade movie suit
Awesome! I've been looking forward to this 😊
Also, I'm super jealous of your Marvel Epics collection.
Completly agree with your list, especially Nicholson as Joker. That is quintessential.
Yes. Both the No Way Home final swing and Christopher Reeve suits are my favs, but I also want to add the '90s Ninja Turtles to the mix as well. The perfect blend of late '80s fun of the cartoon and seriousness from the original comics courtesy of the Jim Henson's Creature Shop.
Love the list. Personally, i would have swapped out Wonder Woman with Black Panther and have Thor's Love and Thunder costume (he had several but definitely not the colorfully loud one) an honorable mention.
Oh man, I watched Love and Thunder the other day and I wish that suit had stuck around for the whole movie.
@@PanelstoPixels i know right? I'm guilty of loving costumes and outfits with some fur on it, whether it's a fur coat or fur around the shoulders. I feel as though it symbolizes superiority and status. That was a perfect fusion of movie and comic-esque attire.
😂got me with the fiancé part 😂
Congratulations. Hope you and her have a wonderful wedding
13:52
Netflix's Daredevil show is one of the finest examples imo, a really visually striking suit and the logic of it was great. and ofc putting charlie cox in the suit was the best part
Hello Panels to Pixels great video on 10 Superhero Movie Costumes defiantly want to hear your thoughts on 10 Superhero Movie Villain Costumes those also like Superhero costumes have been hit and miss as well. Keep up the amazing content looking forward to more videos from the channel.
Flash Gordon 1934 and The Phantom 1936 already had form fitting suits.
Falcon Cap over any single Batsuit? Gddmn. You almost had me hooked.
Wonderful video! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.
I love the final swing suit. It gives credit to it's predecessors and it shows a classic design. I really excited for Spider-Man 4! I hope they do the Black suit justice.
The Batsuit in Batman Returns has always been a favorite of mine.
Yeah, did a recent MCU rewatch and one thing that was pretty notable about Iron Man's suit was how much loving detail is placed on the chonky mechanicalness of it in the early films. Those films just loved all the gears, servos and panels, it was so fun to look at. Then of course as time goes on, this becomes less and less of a focus as the suit becomes less grounded and more fantastical, to the point where by the end it might was well be a magic suit of armor that materializes at will. Like you say, I get why this happened narratively, but I find the later suits, especially the nano suit, to be so boring to look at.
So, okay, I don't know if it counts, and hear me out before glaring or whatever, but Judge Dredd's look from the 1995 movie is spot-on with the comics... Right up until Stallone takes the helmet off. Seriously, the first 15 minutes of that movie are pitch perfect to the original 2000 AD stories; it's just that the movie kept going after that.
Also, again, I don't know if it counts, but Doug Jones' look as the Silver Surfer got me excited for the second Fantastic Four movie, even after the... Let's be nice and call it 'disappointment' that was the first one.
Great picks! Especially the Dredd suit, that one is super underrated.
The first Dredd's movie suit was designed by Versace
@@batifamilia6913 I both feel like I knew that in the back of my mind, but also had no idea. Thank you!
@@MakopoweredGaming you're welcome, friend
Correct. The Angel gang and the ABC robot looked great too.
I adore the Deadpool costume from the first movie to me it feels like a perfect translation from panel to screen
Those were some great pics. A few of mine are. They're TWO in X-MEN Apocalypse.
Psylocke's costume. Her costume looked like it was drawn straight out of the comic book!
And of course, its Scott Summers in the Cyclops costume from X-MEN the Animated Series. Seeing it shocked and amazed me, I started GEEKING out! All I was saying "DOPE...DOPE...DOPE! Oh my GOD that's DOPE!"
My number 1pic is..
The Flash costume from THE FLASH tv show from the 70's! That's the Epitome of the Scarlett Speedster's costume! NOTHING since then has ever come close!
the last option made me thing of TV show costumes, Tyler in Loise and Clark from the 90 and in the more recent revamp with Tyler something.
The comedian from Zach Snyder’s watchmen deserves a mention
spiderman new suite at the end of spiderman no way home was awesome
Better see the TASM 2 Spider-Man suit on this list
I love that Spider-Man suit too
😬
@@PanelstoPixels I see..........
Well at least it was mentioned in some way
Judge Dredd's uniform from Dredd was absolutely perfect.
You lost me at the first costume 😂 FalconCap lmfao 🤣
Not a costume, per say, but The Hulk's design from 2008 is my personal favorite look among all the live action adaptations.
As much as I didn’t like Ben Affleck’s Batman I love how much his suit looks like the DKR suit
My favorites are not from movies but TV-shows, everything DOOM PATROL and Watchmen (2019) did are and were capeshit silliness perfected.
You will never beat Christopher Reeve Superman costume which I've got a replica and recently worn at London pride 23. Although after Christopher's Superman and the actors who have worn the costumes since both on tv and film Christopher's stands out a mile better. Sadly we wont see the likes of Christopher Reeve on the big screen (alough was a nice CGI touch to see him back with Helen Slater Supergirl in the Flash although ive seen on CZcams a better edit from original movies would have been better than bad CGI they did use). RIP Christopher your legend lives on Superman.
12:44 best Spider-Man suit ever made
The only thing about that Spider-man suit that I'd change is the front and back Spider emblems
I enjoy Aquamans outfit the most. I don’t even have the smallest criticism of it. Same with Vigilante and Peacemakers from the Suicide Squad along with Deadpools outfit in the Deadpool movies.
Deadpool from his solo movie looked perfect
I love the costumes of the X-MEN in x-men first class and X-men days of future past
The First Avenger Cap will always be my favorite MCU Cap...
The suits from the end of X Men apocalypse are so peak I will never forgive them for scrapping them, they should’ve got a collective mention. Also it’s like barely different and doesn’t even make sense to be different at all canonically but I prefer the golden age suit from winter soldier cuz it’s like exactly the first avengers shit but with a third stripe added in the middle which is a minor but perfect improvement
Sam's Cap Suit is better than it was in the comics. In the comics, it was a heavy jumble of busy designs. In FatWS, it was streamlined, modern, and smoothed out.
Tobey Maguires Spider-Man costume
People dont seem to understand why this costume is perfect for the cinema. From every angle, it looks amazing.
And thank you for appreciating something in the X-Men movies
Iron Man in the original Iron Man
Christopher Reeves Superman suit
I think Wolverine's costume in the movie X-Men: Days of Future Past the best he had.
It's been a year: Time for a "Top 10 Superhero TV Costumes" video! Obviously the Fleischer Superman costume (Superman and Lois flashback) would be number 1 but what else shows up on the list?
I don’t fw with the small ass eyes in Holland’s suit. It’s classic, yeah but Todd McPharlane redefined what Spider-Man is. To me Spider-Man has big ass eyes, that’s just the standard
Wonder Woman's armor is actually from George Perez's run in the '80s.
I don’t care if there goofy I want comic actuate suits there my favourite suits the
90’s flash suit is perfect Reeves superman suit it’s perfect the suit cap wore before his military suit it’s perfect
DUDE I've just watched your vid from Whatculture (Top 10 hero beat down) and I was wondering why the heck he sounded like the guy from What Culture
Haha, that's rad. Thanks for watching!
Favorite Hero Costumes: Shazam (2019 movie), Iron Man nanosuit (Infinity War), Wonder Woman (2017 film), Spider-Man’s black-and-gold outfit (No Way Home), Batfleck (BVS), Captain America (first Avenger), Hawkman (Black Adam), Mr. Knight (MCU), Aquaman (2018 film), Thor (Love & Thunder)

Favorite Antihero Costumes: Harley Quinn (Birds of Prey), Deadpool (2016 film), Peacemaker (The Suicide Squad)
Ugliest Fucking Thing I’ve Ever Seen: Joker (Suicide Squad)
Finally someone acknowledges how dope the golden suit in WW 1984 is. The movie was ass but the suit was incredible. Same sort of situation as The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
What are your thoughts on the recent Amy Henning captain america and black panther game and EAs Iron Man game
I love all the Iron Man armors in the MCU
The cap head wings are necessary
8:14 to be fair these movies are made to appeal to all audiences and it's impossible to impress everyone there's always going to someone saying the colors are to bring or dark or it doesn't look accurate to the comics I think the MCU version of captain americas suits look great considering just how difficult it is to make a man dressed as the embodiment of American imperialism look great
I know it’s not a movie, but both Daredevil suits are amazing, and would be near the top of my list.
Adi Granov made Iron Man look cool for modern audiences
What about Ben aflecks batsuit in Batman v Superman?
Rocketeer??? Also 1990 Flash is amazing,also by Dave Stevens
Where is Batfleck
Thor 1 is still the best Thor movie in my opinion all the costumes are great in that film Loki is at his best as a complex villain that I can understand and empathize with
Yeah, i agree, I fkn love Spidey but in tasm1 especially, he looked like a dodgeball. And i should know, i always held one as i watched from the bench. 😆. Also, 💯 on Aquaman. Didn't like Nicholson though, and u got it buddy. Spidermans newest suit looks amazing. 👍
Doc Ock was perfect.
Raimi Spidey (2004) is the best by far
I'm tired of seeing so many versions of the joker in movies
Superman and batman and spider-man do it best and cap was great in the mcu most of the time
That's a bad outFIT! Woo!
what about Sam Raimi's Green Goblin?
No Batfleck suit?
Archangel in xMen Apocalypse
What’s wrong with Captain America’s Winter Soldier and Endgame costume ?
Wow no Batman suits.
No Batman?
