https://gizmodo.com/40-examples-of-how-big-screen-superhero-costumes-fail-5493210
Update : I slue it down to about 40 examples with about 70 pics , because 100 pics really was too many . Sorry if it seemed too insistent before — I spent forever searching online for screencaps and make my own in some case .
Deadpool from ten - Men Origins : Wolverine . tour - board - skin calamity . Plus weird peasant fetish facial expression catastrophe . We ’ll follow back to Wade again in a second .
The Joker , from the overrated first Tim Burton Batman flick . chapeau cataclysm !
Bane , from Batman And Robin . Bane was actually kind of awesome in the comic . How did this fall out ? ?
Robin , from Batman Forever . Fake pec disaster . Shiny axilla disaster .
The Ironettes , from Iron Man 2 . Although to be fair , they ’re signify to be trashy chorus girl dressed like Iron Man .
Robin from Batman Forever again . Weird codpiece disaster !
Batman and Robin , from Batman And Robin . placard how they managed to make Robin ’s costume really look worse than the previous one . Also , nipples .
Elektra neglect her tryout to be in Apollonia 6 because her shoes were on too tight . Morris Day will not be happy .
Venom , in Spider - Man 3 . CG rather than a strong-arm costume , but still extraordinarily punch-drunk .
Daredevil costume , feature too much of Ben Affleck ’s chin . And shiny pec disaster . I feel like the leather suit is too thick-skulled and immobilize .
I ’ve never like the Raimi Spider - suit of clothes . It ’s too rubberlike and fake look . It does n’t look like Peter Parker made this , nor does it look that coolheaded .
The boxing glove , also with the raised lines .
Uma in Batman And Robin . We ’ll be seeing a lot more of this film in this gallery , so fairish warning . It ’s just so full of tragedy .
Arguably not a superhero movie , but ugh . Helmet catastrophe , from Judge Dredd .
Random monster from Batman And Robin . Who is this guy ? Kiss physical composition catastrophe !
Sequin catastrophe ! More of the Jim Carrey Riddler in a sec .
We ’re going to have to deconstruct all the agency Halle Berry ’s Catwoman costume is interrupt . permit ’s start up with the shredded pants , which are about to bust exposed at the genitalia . Did she shred them herself with her cat claw ? Why did she shred her own pants ?
Superhero Movie is a spoof , yeah — but this is actually a pretty good example of superhero costume fail , include headpiece cataclysm , tight crotch catastrophe and belt disaster .
Again from Superhero Movie . A random supervillain with a clunky armor case that includes non - representational musculature .
Tim Burton ’s Batman again . “ I ca n’t raise my arm above my headway ! ” Disaster .
“ I also ca n’t turn my headway more than 30 degrees in either direction ! ” How does he fight crime when he ca n’t move ?
Two - Face and the Riddler facial expression just as camp as anything in Batman And Robin . Including Riddler ’s unearthly orangish hair , and Two - Face ’s both - sides - brainsick jacket crown , which is just a picayune too loud for what ’s meant to be a conflicted character .
So not only are Catwoman ’s drawers shred , but so are her shoes . Good business , Catwoman . Then there ’s the tit - falling - out disaster .
Jim Carrey ’s Riddler again , this clip without the sequin , but with with the lightheaded jammies .
Arnie as Mr. Freeze , skylark a really weird headpiece , including a clear plastic masking . More of him soon . Gnarrrr .
I think you know everything you involve to about Michael Keaton ’s batarang after look at this picture . Also , lego pecs .
You screw , that wrap really does n’t become you .
The Meteor Man . Just had to include that , it total up so much of what ’s wrong wtih movie superhero costumes with its immobilizing chunky armor and excessive line of work .
More of head - wrapper Uma . Vegas glittery bustier disaster !
The back of Burton ’s Batman ’s cowl is very cockamamy and neck - brace - corresponding . Also , Penguin pimp coat and drawing string sleeper disaster .
serrate knickers disaster . What are those shoes ?
froth - arctic pecs disaster . This picture really needs a silly dialogue caption .
Xenomorph head catastrophe .
patently this was an other test for Deadpool . They really should have gone back to the draftsmanship board . I intend , I would go to see this stria . But he ’s not Wade .
Seriously . Wade ! WTF ?
Nuclear Man , from Superman IV . Insignia tragedy .
Nuclearman ’s codpiece . Plus shiny amber tights cataclysm !
More Penguin cataclysm , including the weird draw and the pelt coat . His comedian costumes would have been tough to translate to the big screen , but maybe they should have thought laterally .
Emma Frost should look cooler than this . That is all .
Shoulderpads disaster !
Lex Luthor inexplicably do as a riverboat gambler .
Ozymandias from Watchmen . This was meant to be a scrap spoofy , but they went too far with the safety abs .
Padded subdivision muscles disaster !
Random mutant from X-3 . Spit - curl tragedy . Seriously , what is that getup ? She should be in that band with Deadpool .
Goblin pecs calamity ! Also , the slinky arms are a morsel weird .
Do n’t cry , Samuel L. Jackson . Nobody will remember The Spirit before long enough .
Watchmen yellow fetishwear disaster . I really detest Nite Owl ’s costume in this motion picture , too — it feels a second too camp , and strain too hard to be Batman - like .
I imagine they were try out to dull the colorfulness of Superman ’s costume , which is a mistake .
Too much grain . I hate the niggling “ S ” shape on the freehanded S. And the little bumps on the cloth . It tease me , for some reason .
Uma ’s loud red kit . It just go more and more disastrous .
The Dark Knight ’s Batsuit is an improvement , except for what it does to Bruce ’s rima oris . specially when he gets shouty .
Seriously , Bale ’s mouth looks freakishly grownup . That embouchure is a uncanny shape .
Juggernaut is like the harbinger of Whiplash , only with more thorax hairsbreadth . He look like he wants to give you a sweaty hug . He ’s such a coolheaded part in the comics , he looks unstoppable . But here , he just looks sort of surly .
Without the helmet .
I ’m worry when they osculate , he ’s get going to thump a fix in her cheek with his pointy nozzle .
It ’s A Disaster !
There ’s just never been a swell Batsuit . It ’s always too chunky and stylise . You ca n’t do warriorlike arts in this thing .
Doctor Doom is snarky rather than scary , and part of the problem is the masquerade party , which does n’t convey enough threat .
Kryptonian pyjama . With plush boots .
Zod wrestling tragedy !
Kelsey Grammar , the original Na’Vi .
It ’s not a toomah ! There are the bulbous blue pecs , the crotchguard and the glazed headstall , among other thing .
Ummm …
prison house jumpsuit striptease disaster !
Bondage harness disaster !
Clunky basketball game virtuoso armor calamity . ( From Steel . )
severely embarrassing . At least alternatively of a codpiece , there are metal Y - front end .
Mr. Freeze as the Hamburglar .
The Bat - Family in Batman And Robin . mention the tit , as well as Batgirl ’s pneumatic dresser .
Hancock , at the terminal of the picture when he put on his “ serious superhero ” costume . He was better off in a hoodie and shorts .
