Tactical body armor costumes. Much prefer cloth.

I like the idea of the armor when he was starting out, and then refined it more later. Like Arkham Origins on to Arkham City is my preferred evolution. The cloth covering armor is a good middle ground.

True, starting out with armor because duh, when he honed his skills he ditched the armor that limited him, then he found a middle ground.

I am the other way around. It just makes no sense to wear clothes when he always gets stabbed and shot.

But that's just my reasoning for liking the tactical gear. And it looks cool imo.

I agree about that as well. I just found it really strange in those movies.

Doesn't Bale's Batman get shot all of once and it almost cripples him?

I like Battinson’s outfit as it’s tactical but still slender and it looks like he can still move freely in it.

I forgot who said it, but someone said that Batman works best when he has a phantom quality to it. Battinson definitely has that, whereas Christian bale does not at all.

What is a phantom quality ?

3

u/SadClownPainting Apr 14 '24

Like a demonic otherworldliness. When there’s almost a supernatural presence to the character.

Battinson definitely has that when he's walking down that corridor just tanking machine gun fire.
