I love the Kingdom Come suit but I think it's in part because Brandon is in it - it just seems made perfectly for him. I'm surprised they put so much effort into it honestly given how little screen time there was.
The Kingdom Come suit is my favorite, hands down (especially the version at the very end where they put the yellow back in the crest). I love how they used the "S" shape to give it texture like they did with the Returns suit, only it feels like it works better here. They also fixed the neckline, which was actually my biggest gripe with the Superman Returns suit. I like the Man of Steel suit and the BvS suit, but I feel that while they have some exquisite craftsmanship behind them I feel they are ultimately a bit over-designed (this is especially true for the Justice League suit).
Mine will always be Christopher Reeve's Superman Costume. It was perfect. Cape wasn't too long to the feet, S emblem design was great, yellow emblem on the cape was great and im sure the colors and same design can be replicated for a modern version for modern audiences if made outta same material as Cavill's only with brighter colors.
I really like Chris Reeve's suit, the necklace is just the right cut, the cape, I generally like it to reach my ankles or even touch the floor, but it has the minimum length and a good fall, and it even has the gold s , a detail that almost no other version respects. The proportions of the belt, underwear and boots are perfect, and I love the colors, as a whole it is a copy and paste of the classic Superman suit from the comics. My only small problem is that for my taste the s is a little misshapen, I would add the design from the Superboy series, which I think has the perfect design and proportion, maybe I would put it a little higher on the chest .
I re-watched Lois and Clarke a while back and It still has one of those moments that have stuck with me over the years with Clarke on the phone with his mother asking her how to get bomb stains out of his suit
What some people don’t know is that the reason the theatrical release of Justice League Superman’s suit had the silver plates was because the studio didn’t allow for Snyder to have the black suit because it was deemed to dark/depressing and if he ever got the chance fix the suit in post they added the plating to make it easier to change in post.
Of Dean's two classic costumes, the pilot suit has a great neckline (exposing more pecs) but the exaggerated cape shoulders ruin it. The second version is better with smaller cape and slighter smaller "S" (though I miss the pecs). Tyler Hoechlan's Supergirl costume has a similar issue with the huge shoulder clasps actually making his chest look less broad. His new costumes for Superman & Lois fixes that. We get a kick-ass Fleischer suit, too! I loved the smaller "S" and shorts on Routh's first costume and he looks even better in the Kingdom Come version. Reeve, Newton & Christopher share a classic costume. Alyn & Reeves are products of their time (HUGE underwear) but fit their stories nicely. Cavill's suit design/texture combined with his sheer muscle size wins for me, though I agree the brighter suit looks too plastic. I'm looking forward to how Zach recolors it.
I think the only suit I'd put over the Man of Steel suit, is the one from Shazam. It's basically the MOS suit, but with brighter colors and some red around the belt area. But for the suits used in this video, I like your ranking.
1.) Brandon Routh Kingdom Come Superman 2.) Snyder Cut Black Suit Superman 3.) Dawn of Justice Superman suit 4.) Man of Steel 5.) Christopher Reeves Superman 6.) Superman Returns 7.) CW suit
I grew up on superman returns Brandon routh because suit literally looks like a modified Christopher reeve's superman suit but I also like henry cavil's superman. So I like Brandon routh superman better.
How can you put the Superboy suits in with the Kirk Alyn/George Reeves suits? They’re very different designs and the S is a completely different shape. The Superboy suits were much more in line with the Reeve films. Also it’s Christoper Reeve, not Reeves and it’s Routh not Rouths lol We’re going to be doing a suit ranking on our show once the new Superman and Lois suit drops.
For me, I like the general design of the Snyder suits a lot, the Man of Steel suit is good (I also wish it was brighter)... but to me, it feels like the "man of steel Superman", he feels like a version of the character, and interpretation of Superman... but Christopher Reeve in his suit just feels like Superman, the "Real" Superman... it's so accurate to the comics of the time and it looks so good on screen Obviously they fit different vibes, but does anyone know what I mean? It's kind of abstract and totally subjective, but the 1978 suit just feels like they took the character and brought it to life, and it looks great!
I am not a fan of the Man of Steel suit. Superman's suit should not have texture or fake muscles. It certainly shouldn't look like a basketball. So I would rank every suit from the last 20 years quite low. The pre-Christopher Reeve suits are decent, but the George Reeves suit doesn't place the cape up high enough on his neck. The Kirk Alyn suit is better in that regard, but it looks a little too much like a sweater instead of a unitard. That leaves the Superboy/Superman suit and the Lois & Clark suit as the top two. But I'd give the edge to the suit that first appeared in the 1978 film. Dean Cain's suit looks a little too much like a costume for a TV show and not enough like something that a professional wrestler might wear. (The ideal look for Superman's suit--minus the cape--would be something that wouldn't be out of place in 1980s Wrestlemania, essentially a flashier and more garish version of actual athletic clothing. The costume should show off the actor's real physique.)
Your ranking didn't hurt nearly as much as you pronouncing Christopher’s surname as Reeves! It was _George_ *Reeves!* It was Christopher *_Reeve_* (no S on the end)!
Great to catch the live stream erm....live. I love your ranking video's (RANKING you deviants, ha ha) even if I'd choose a couple in different positions I think you state your reasons for your personal choice really well. I hope you rank the batmobile's, live action or not. Great video as always. Much love your pal in the UK. Who is clicking dislike on Boba' s video's? You do know I am a REAL Mr Wick, right? :)
I’d be perfectly fine with the cape clips on the CW suit if it weren’t for those belt looking bits there They barely even look like part of the cape and the only reason they do look like part of the cape is because due to their placement they pretty much have to be. If it were a normal cape with the corners just kinda bunched into the cape clips that would look pretty dope (I’m also not a fan of the tucked in look, just doesn’t have the right presence for me, I can’t explain it in a reasonable way)
I think the color grade made a big difference in BvS suit and Justice League suit. BvS's looked badass cause of that dark background, where as Justice League's just brought out that ugly silver plating imo.
you know, I kinda feel bad for Christopher reeve's suit. its till my favourite, but on most current ranking videos it no longer cracks the top 2. I understand it is little old but its the suit that I think of when I think of superman
These videos are made mostly by people that are at most age 30, but probably teenagers/early 20s. The people commenting are mostly kids too, so ofcourse everyone will say the most current or most recent version of Superman or Batman is the best. For those of us over 35 or 40, it sucks though that Christopher Reeve doesn't get his recognition. Kids today are already shitting on the Nolan/Bale Dark Knight trilogy and saying only Robert Pattinsons' 8 hour Batman movie is the best.
I’m under 20 and I still watch those movies. It’s unfortunate that people don’t look past the most recent movies as the ‘best’ like I understand personal preference but those movies are really gold nuggets
11. 50s suit 10. Dean Caine suit 9. CW Suit 8. MOS Suit 7. Brandon Routh Suit 6. Christopher Reeves Suit 5. Tom Welling Suit (I put it higher specifically because of black suit) 4. BVS Suit 3. Black Suit (Snyder Cut) 2. JL 2017 suit 1. Kingdom Come Suit
To be fair the shiny/glossy muscles on Snyder’s JL suit were meant to balance out with the suit being color corrected to black (as you see in the #3 pick). WB deciding against that and keeping the suit red/blue with the glossy padding underneath is a fault on their part and Whedon’s 😉
Great list Boba and agree with your Superman suit rankings. For me my favorite Superman live action suits are Christopher Reeve from the original Superman movies , Brandon Routh's Kingdom Come Superman from the crisis crossover and eventually when we get an official look at the suit and in the series Tyler Hoechlin's new Superman suit from Superman & Lois. And I can't wait to see Tyler's new Superman costume for Superman & Lois when The CW official releases higher quality photos of the costume !!! I did not dislike the original suit from Supergirl Season 2 & the crossovers but those shoulder straps / cape clasps not that great.
Brandon Routh is hands down the best. If Henry Cavill had the red underwear intergrated, then I would say that suit is the best but it falls to second. Routh’s version is a classic design with a modern texture. I think it could be improved to have the symbol embossed like Cavill’s... if you could blend the two together, that would be the ultimate live action.
Hey Boba would you please do the Green Arrow suit rankings next cuz there’s a lot of ground to cover there and for gods sake do not include the Justin Hartley version. That suit looks like rain jacket with the sleeves cut off and was designed by the NERF company
1. Christopher Reeve 2. Brandon Routh 3. BvS 4. Superman and Lois 5. Snyder’s Justice League 6. Man of Steel 7. Kingdom Come 8. Supergirl 9. Superboy suit 2 10. Superboy Suit 1 11. Dean Cain 12. George Reeves
Man, for me, Dean Cain's suit is the worst of em all. That large goofy "S" is wonky and disproportions his physic. That one pic with his hands on his hips amplifies this. PS, great list!
The suit must definitely have trunks. The trunks should be red and not be boxer shorts. Superman is also an emblem of the mid 20th century, which should be respected and all physical men wore trunks. If you want hyper sexual muscle gear, there are plenty of other role models. The suit shouldn't be armour, but it should be integral to the character's identity.
I never liked the Superman Returns Suit and the only good thing about the new one is the chest emblem. The undies can go. Cavil 's BvS and MoS suits are the best. The Shazam and JL ones are kinda ugly.

Could you make a ranking of Flash, Spiderman or Robin costumes? Great video!
I'd watch an entire movie with Brandon Routh as Kingdom Come Superman
Same.
I would too, so disappointed he only had 1 movie
@@robbiedegrenier anything more would be enough
I wish we could have gotten a superman returns 2
And with Kevin Conroy as KINGDOM COME Batman.
Personally for me: Kingdom Come Brandon Routh suit is my favorite suit like I thought it was literally perfect and Brandon Routh did it very well too.
The Kingdom Come suit is my second favorite Superman suit. First is Returns suit. Brandon is very underrated.
@@sebastianmolina5606 Yeah like I get the movie wasn't great, but that wasn't on him. He is a good Superman amd Crisis really let him prove that.
The BvS DoJ suit is my personal favourite and I can’t wait to see the black suit in the Synder Cut.
me too
@@bubs200 it was amazing
it was great.
Kingdom Come Brandon Routh suit is my favorite suit like I thought it was literally perfect and Brandon Routh did it very well too.
Brandon Routhe is a great Superman. I hope when they discover the new multiverse we will get to see more of him as Superman.
I love all of Henry Cavills suits
I love the Kingdom Come suit but I think it's in part because Brandon is in it - it just seems made perfectly for him. I'm surprised they put so much effort into it honestly given how little screen time there was.
The Kingdom Come suit is my favorite, hands down (especially the version at the very end where they put the yellow back in the crest).

Brandon Routh's Kingdom Come suit is the shade of blue and red that I wish Tyler Hoechlin's Superman suit was.
I re-watched Lois and Clarke a while back and It still has one of those moments that have stuck with me over the years with Clarke on the phone with his mother asking her how to get bomb stains out of his suit
Brandon's kingdom come suit is my favorite. It they put a classic superman symbol and a yellow belt it would be perfect.
There is NO WAY i could agree more with your choices :)
What some people don’t know is that the reason the theatrical release of Justice League Superman’s suit had the silver plates was because the studio didn’t allow for Snyder to have the black suit because it was deemed to dark/depressing and if he ever got the chance fix the suit in post they added the plating to make it easier to change in post.
My favorite is Kingdom Come
Should've waited for the new Tyler Hoechlin suit b4 doing this vid...don't u think?🤔
Both Tyler Hoechlin suits in fact
Superman and Lois costume is by far the best. It looks like he was ripped right out of the comics.
Why didn’t you include the Smallville suit and the Post Crisis Brandon Routh suit?
Post crisis literally just changed the black to yellow
Smallville is just Returns but slightly modified
Of Dean's two classic costumes, the pilot suit has a great neckline (exposing more pecs) but the exaggerated cape shoulders ruin it. The second version is better with smaller cape and slighter smaller "S" (though I miss the pecs).
Tyler Hoechlan's Supergirl costume has a similar issue with the huge shoulder clasps actually making his chest look less broad. His new costumes for Superman & Lois fixes that. We get a kick-ass Fleischer suit, too!
I loved the smaller "S" and shorts on Routh's first costume and he looks even better in the Kingdom Come version.
Reeve, Newton & Christopher share a classic costume.
Alyn & Reeves are products of their time (HUGE underwear) but fit their stories nicely.
Cavill's suit design/texture combined with his sheer muscle size wins for me, though I agree the brighter suit looks too plastic. I'm looking forward to how Zach recolors it.
christopher reeve and brandon routh suits are beautiful
The Kingdom Come suit is definitely my favorite. I like the bright colors and Routh looks jacked in it.
I think the only suit I'd put over the Man of Steel suit, is the one from Shazam. It's basically the MOS suit, but with brighter colors and some red around the belt area. But for the suits used in this video, I like your ranking.
1.) Brandon Routh Kingdom Come Superman
2.) Snyder Cut Black Suit Superman
3.) Dawn of Justice Superman suit
4.) Man of Steel
5.) Christopher Reeves Superman
6.) Superman Returns
7.) CW suit
Congrats on getting to 70K man!
I grew up on superman returns Brandon routh because suit literally looks like a modified Christopher reeve's superman suit but I also like henry cavil's superman. So I like Brandon routh superman better.
17:50 lol is that you in the reflection
My favorite is between superman returns and bvs.
How can you put the Superboy suits in with the Kirk Alyn/George Reeves suits? They’re very different designs and the S is a completely different shape. The Superboy suits were much more in line with the Reeve films.
Also it’s Christoper Reeve, not Reeves and it’s Routh not Rouths lol
We’re going to be doing a suit ranking on our show once the new Superman and Lois suit drops.
honestly i think kingdom come superman suit is the best but thats my opinion
I liked Henry’s Superman hairstyle in man of steel way better than his slicked hair in bvs
For me, I like the general design of the Snyder suits a lot, the Man of Steel suit is good (I also wish it was brighter)... but to me, it feels like the "man of steel Superman", he feels like a version of the character, and interpretation of Superman... but Christopher Reeve in his suit just feels like Superman, the "Real" Superman... it's so accurate to the comics of the time and it looks so good on screen
Obviously they fit different vibes, but does anyone know what I mean?
It's kind of abstract and totally subjective, but the 1978 suit just feels like they took the character and brought it to life, and it looks great!
Haven't watched it yet, but I somehow have a feeling I'm going to agree with you
Superman Returns is my number one favorite suit.
Favourite suit is the Kingdom come one.
I am not a fan of the Man of Steel suit. Superman's suit should not have texture or fake muscles. It certainly shouldn't look like a basketball. So I would rank every suit from the last 20 years quite low.
The pre-Christopher Reeve suits are decent, but the George Reeves suit doesn't place the cape up high enough on his neck. The Kirk Alyn suit is better in that regard, but it looks a little too much like a sweater instead of a unitard.
That leaves the Superboy/Superman suit and the Lois & Clark suit as the top two. But I'd give the edge to the suit that first appeared in the 1978 film.

(The ideal look for Superman's suit--minus the cape--would be something that wouldn't be out of place in 1980s Wrestlemania, essentially a flashier and more garish version of actual athletic clothing. The costume should show off the actor's real physique.)
Your ranking didn't hurt nearly as much as you pronouncing Christopher’s surname as Reeves!
It was _George_ *Reeves!*
It was Christopher *_Reeve_* (no S on the end)!
Can't wait for the Superman reboot
I agree with this list. Man of Steel suit is #1. Probably the best non CGI suit ever in my opinion. I just wish it had the BVS coloring.
Great to catch the live stream erm....live. I love your ranking video's (RANKING you deviants, ha ha) even if I'd choose a couple in different positions I think you state your reasons for your personal choice really well. I hope you rank the batmobile's, live action or not. Great video as always. Much love your pal in the UK. Who is clicking dislike on Boba' s video's? You do know I am a REAL Mr Wick, right? :)
My top 5:
5. Christopher Reeve suit
4. Cavill Black Suit (Justice League and MOS)
3. MOS suit
2. BVS suit
1. Brandon Routh kingdom come suit
I’d be perfectly fine with the cape clips on the CW suit if it weren’t for those belt looking bits there
They barely even look like part of the cape and the only reason they do look like part of the cape is because due to their placement they pretty much have to be. If it were a normal cape with the corners just kinda bunched into the cape clips that would look pretty dope (I’m also not a fan of the tucked in look, just doesn’t have the right presence for me, I can’t explain it in a reasonable way)

Could you make a ranking of Flash, Spiderman or Robin costumes?
My top 5
5. MOS
4 black suit
3 Brandon Routh
2 kingdom come suit
1 Christoffer Reeves
11. 50s suit
10. Dean Caine suit
9. CW Suit
8. MOS Suit
7. Brandon Routh Suit
6. Christopher Reeves Suit
5. Tom Welling Suit (I put it higher specifically because of black suit)
4. BVS Suit
3. Black Suit (Snyder Cut)
2. JL 2017 suit
1. Kingdom Come Suit
In my opinion a perfect superman suit would be Brandon Routh's kingdom come suit with a yellow belt and the classic emblem
You should rank all the batmobiles or rank all the Batcaves from all the shows and movies
You should rank the cartoon suits of Batman and superman
That was fantastic for me I enjoy men of Steel like you I'm happy as you are
Agree with #1 but the colors need to be brighter imo.
To be fair the shiny/glossy muscles on Snyder’s JL suit were meant to balance out with the suit being color corrected to black (as you see in the #3 pick). WB deciding against that and keeping the suit red/blue with the glossy padding underneath is a fault on their part and Whedon’s 😉
nice to see someone loving man of steel suit.

You forgot the white suit from Superman returns
Another awesome video
Great video man , in my personal opinion I love the Henry Cavill one , it’s a great re imagining of a darker superman
Brandon Routh is hands down the best. If Henry Cavill had the red underwear intergrated, then I would say that suit is the best but it falls to second. Routh’s version is a classic design with a modern texture. I think it could be improved to have the symbol embossed like Cavill’s... if you could blend the two together, that would be the ultimate live action.
Hey Boba would you please do the Green Arrow suit rankings next cuz there’s a lot of ground to cover there and for gods sake do not include the Justin Hartley version. That suit looks like rain jacket with the sleeves cut off and was designed by the NERF company
What about Nicolas Cage
Now that we have Superman and Lois. what rank would that be at boba?
You missed Tyler's black suit from Elseworlds. Or did you leave it off because it wasn't Superman wearing it?
every live action spider man suit ranked from worst to best
Christopher Reeve 100% the authentic Superman and costume. Full stop.
Don’t forget the Shazam one with the red belt section
I really like this ranking, and I understand from where he's talking. I personally like the bvs's (S) better than the man of steel. Great job!
Colors stand out more in that one
I feel like number 4 should’ve been number one, that’s my personal favorite
Dang Dean kanes S is huge
The Smallville Superman suit is the greatest in my opinion.
The old ones look amazing
BVS/JL suits be taking notes from the george Clooney batman suit 😂😂
Bryan singer said he didn't want the s chest be a billboard
We never speak of Dean Cain, and we shouldn’t.
His suit was so shiny, like 80s work out gear
I hate how small the s is in superman returns it's crazy they did such a good job on the kingdom come suit.
Same #1
What about Spider-Man or robin / night wing
I like man of steel suit too man
They changed the hair parting in justice, god knows why, he comes back to life and changes his hair style!
15:18 ANOTHER BABY YODA CAMEO🥰🥰🥰
#8 should have been grouped with #10
The best one for me has to be kingdom come suit would love a film for him
15:17 Padu
1. Christopher Reeve
2. Brandon Routh
3. BvS
4. Superman and Lois
5. Snyder’s Justice League
6. Man of Steel
7. Kingdom Come
8. Supergirl
9. Superboy suit 2
10. Superboy Suit 1
11. Dean Cain
12. George Reeves
Man, for me, Dean Cain's suit is the worst of em all. That large goofy "S" is wonky and disproportions his physic. That one pic with his hands on his hips amplifies this. PS, great list!
The cw suit is my favorite tbh
The suit must definitely have trunks. The trunks should be red and not be boxer shorts. Superman is also an emblem of the mid 20th century, which should be respected and all physical men wore trunks. If you want hyper sexual muscle gear, there are plenty of other role models.
The suit shouldn't be armour, but it should be integral to the character's identity.
All Batman suits
15:18 Another "Patoo"😂....U still gonna say u don't knw how that got into the edit?👀😂
I'm not even joking I literally have no idea how that got in this edit either WTF LOL
Like Your Choices.
To me, Brandon Routh suit is by far the best. Classic suit but more modern.
SUPES!!!
I never liked the Superman Returns Suit and the only good thing about the new one is the chest emblem. The undies can go. Cavil 's BvS and MoS suits are the best. The Shazam and JL ones are kinda ugly.
I personally don’t like the DCEU Superman mostly the texture and weird belt thing but the kingdom come super is definitely the best in my opinion
Henry Cahill's black suit will be number 1
I know exactly what you mean
Henry Cavill's suit doesn't look goofy. It's more realistic as it was made by his people for it's properties.
In what universe does Superman's underwear look like boxers????? Try jocky shorts! Duh! Boxers look like short pants with a fly not tighties! Ugh
There's only three suits that actually matter
When you have Christopher Reeve at 7, I can't take the list seriously. So 8 minutes in & I'm out lol
