Kevin Smith Drops More Details About Ben Affleck's Batsuit

Now that Snyder has revealed the full suit (in black and white albeit), Smith has further teased us fanboys on Hollywood Babble-On. "As you may remember, I saw a photo of the Batsuit many months ago, and many people asked online, ‘Is that the picture you saw?’ No, that is a very cool picture, but that is not the picture I saw. They put it on a fake rooftop, and they lit it up. But it was in color, and you could see every piece of detail. So I've seen some people online go, ‘Why is this f***ing suit any different than the Chris Nolan Batsuit, it’s all one f***ing color.’ It’s like, ‘Dude, that’s a monochrome photo. You know what that means, one chrome.”


Smith went on to continue raving about the new Batsuit and its striking similarities to the suit featured in The Dark Knight Returns. “That’s not a representation of what the suit looks like. So what the suit looks like, and I was always kind of keeping it quiet until they revealed it, but they've revealed it. And you can kind of see, and anybody that…you’ve seen some people take the picture and color it online. If you want to see what this f***ing suit looks like, you just go to Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns, go to the third book, Hunt the Dark Knight…it’s the exact f***ing outfit he’s wearing. That’s why I hugged that guy all those months ago.”


When Smith's co-host, Ralph Garman, said he thought the new Batmobile looked similar to the Tumbler, Smith stated “I will put this to you. What if it’s one of a few Batmobiles? What if that’s one of a few outfits in the movie? I suspect that’s the case.”

Why would he need more than one suit & batmobile for this film though?

 

[moonshoes08]

Omg if this is true... it shall be EPIC!!!!

 

[rfx45]

It's Smiths guess, not a concrete info. The suit I'm guessing he'll need better armor to go against Superman and it is exactly what happened in TDKR.

As for the batmobile, maybe he needs as much weapons against Superman? There were early reports that Bat Snetries and my guess is if that is true that he will unleash it on Superman and Superman will just need to eradicate and destroy an army of robots to make an awesome action scene.

At the end of the day though, so what? Why you got to question everything, I know you don't have confidence in the film but if you just quickly think of a Batman vs SUperman scenario you could think of several ways in why Bats would need a different suit and vehicles.

so i can't ask questions no more?

 

[rfx45]

You could but you know damn well no one knows the story of the film and no one can accurately answer that and Smith stated his opinion. You're a comic book fan, use your imagination.

And you've nitpicked the film in the past and it just makes the question sound more negative that it really is. I admit I somewhat reached but you really can't think of a reason why a different suit and an extra vehicle is needed in the film? Really just sounds like nitpicking with a negative connotation.

 

[blastercombo]

The more I see the new bat suit the more it sucks

Not my fault you tryna play psychic and guess my thoughts. I simply asked a question I don't have any answer for, and want to speculate.

 

[rfx45]

Just like Fox has a history of sucking so people already assume DoFP sucks, you have a history for scrutinizing and berating this film so you can't blame if that comes as an expectation.

 

[tay1]

You making it seem like I'm just trashing this film. I made one negative comment

 

[rfx45]

Not even close. Gadot complaint, just going after Avengers money complaint, not being a MoS sequel complaint, casting complaints and that is just from the top of my head.

What did I say about Gadot and casting?

Only thing I mentioned was that this is a JL prologue, and I stand by it.

 

[rfx45]

That she's just a pretty face and an extremely average actor and will be forgettable? Something like that.


I don't want to get to the JL prologue thing again but every Marvel film before the Avengers was practically a prologue too.


Anyways let's move on, you're missing the point of the article, the fact that the suit could actually be blue and gray.

That's not a complaint. That's solely based off what she's been in breh. Sorry. She hasn't stood out in anything she's been in. And I liked the movies she's been in.

Was The Avengers not thought of from their first film which was TIH? DC was busy making a movie in which superman was a daddy, and non-canon Batman movies.

MOS was supposed to be the Iron Man of their universe. Iron Man was critically acclaimed by both audiences. MOS wasn't. I simply wanted to see one more film, just with him, then they could've dove in to expanding their universe. Don't see how what I wanted to see translates into negativity. This can be a good film. It most likely will be. Still isn't the film I wanted too see at this point.

 

[rfx45]

I don't think Avengers was thought on or before TIH was made, at least not to the way they did it. They know they wanted to do it but I doubt the whole plot was made yet.

I mean DC was close to filming a JL film, do they not get credit for that, which was likely in development for a decade? I mean they literally had the cast and was about to shoot before the writers strike killed it. A Bats vs Supes film was in process back in early 2000's.

At the end of the day it's still a complaint/criticism of what is being made. I mean you admitted it as a complaint.

Yes. Yes I iz gon complain. They're just scrambling for that Avenger money. They could've easily held this off until MO3.

Saying this without actually knowing how this film will turn out is a criticism still and you know damn well that is a negative comment on your part about the film. Now if you saw the film and said this, then it is more valid but to say it even before the filming started then that is just a negative complaint/criticism.

I wish this was a true MOS sequel and not a JL prologue.

 

[tay1]

And that's the only thing I said I was negative about and stood by it. Still don't see how I'm overly negative like you say I am.

All I wanted was a sequel without all the universe expansion.

 

[rfx45]

Last response form me on this topic but again, you don't know how they are going about it. This can still be a Superman-centric film with Batman in it and a little bit of WW and Cyborg. Again if it's a few seconds of cameo, it doesn't take away from it being a Superman film. But instead you are assured Superman will be put on the wayside and just preview JL, go back to your post and you can see you are very sure of yourself like you've seen the film already. I mean I'd understand if this is a recurring thing with DC like Fox but this is pretty much their first attempt at an expansion world that they are going through with.

It was a negative post and that was the point.

 

[tay1]

If superman gets his due then I'll be happy. I just don't see it happening. Doesn't mean I'm not excited or awaiting this film. I wouldn't be in here if I wasn't.

 

[rfx45]

I am not questioning that, despite me defending XMen films, I've said a few things about it I wouldn't be proud of and has berated Quicksilvers look and look at the response it's getting, people actually questioning how Marvel could top it. But despite all of that, I still can't wait to see DoFP in 2 days.

All I'm saying is wait and give it a chance before you set your mind up like others (won't mention names).

If I get a chance to ask a question to the producer of DoFP after the film and they do not put these guys in a costume, best believe I am going to angrily ask her why the hell not.

 

[651akathepaul]

Read the last few pages and you'd think this movie was about Batman.

Had a feeling this would happen. Makes no sense. Hollywood always trying to rush ****.

 

[rfx45]

Talks is just mostly about Batman because his suit was just revealed.

Once WW suit is revealed then the talk will be all about that.

Same with Superman and Lex.

 

[toledo77]

Batman will be the main talk about this movie. He is the only character(movie wise) that is holding DC down. Batman movies have been relevant for 4 decades('89-present) now. What other comic book character can say that. I agree they didn't give Superman a chance to be a stand alone character in a movie series but at the sametime I am happy to see a JLA movie coming down road.

 

[Master Zik]

Please stop listening to Smith. Son is already on his defend Battfleck at all costs mode. It's pathetic.

 

[tay1]

Ben Affleck is gonna be great in the role. In that pic, he looks like a no nonsense, I'd kill you but I got morals, I dun had some **** happen to me, the world's best detective, all sorts of gadgets in my utility belt type of batman. Seeing that pic kinda made Bale look a tad bit silly, but Bale did that to Clooney so yeah.
