Sorry, but can you explain to me what makes this costume any worse than any other Spiderman costume? It's bright red and blue; the costume designers don't really have a lot to work with, here.
Bear in mind, also, that lighting on movie sets has to be just ridiculously bright to look good on film. Photos taken under such conditions are bound to look overexposed. A better-lit photo of the costume looks more like this:
What reason had proved best ceased to look absurd to the eye, which shows how idle it is to think anything ridiculous except what is wrong.

Yep that's a big part of why spidey is so cool. Though I think it's pretty difficult to find a director who can pull it off. A lot of people just don't have the feel for snarky comedy. There's a new spiderman cartoon coming up and the preview clips were pretty bad IMO. It was slapstick comedy rather than snarky smartass comedy. They may be aiming for a younger audience with the cartoon, but I still would have liked to see something a little wittier. The Spectacular Spiderman cartoon was great in that regard.

I think the film looks pretty sweet. The kid they got to play Parker seems to do the sarcasm thing well ("You seriously think I'm a cop in a skintight red and blue suit...?") and they've given him the right girlfriend for an origin story (for once) and they've got him making a web-shooter instead of having the spider-silk come out of his wrists somehow... Overall, looks more faithful to the source material. I'm looking forward to it.
Facts are stubborn things.

It better be at least as good as the Raimi flicks to justify that mess of a design...
The cool thing was that he was a science wiz, not a costume designer. It's SUPPOSED to look simple!!!! Not hi-tek bumpy plastic!

>_> The less lit pictures are not as bad, but now I think Spidey looks like the surface of a basketball...

Okay, but let's take a breath here: what if he used his science skills to make hi-tech bumpy fabric that wouldn't easily rip while he's swinging around? If you catch on the sharp edge of a windowsill and your entire costume tears off, that's probably not convenient, especially if your web-slinging contraption gets lost with the rest of the costume and you fall to your death :p
Smart kid designed rubber enforcing to the rescue then, yeah?

He looks likes a space alien, is he smelling his armpit in that 1st picture?
