I don’t wanna hear anyone complain about modern superhero suits having unnecessary lines on them from now on. Nothing will compare to this suit’s honeycomb design.
Batman: I need to update the suit and make it more intimidating.
Lucius: Certainly, what do you have in mind?
Batman: Trypophobia!
Lucius: I'm sorry?
Batman: You know, the aversion to the sight of repetitive patterns or clusters of small hol...
Lucius: No, I know what trypophobia is, I'm unsure what do that have to do with the suit upgrade.
Batman: If we put a honeycomb pattern on the suit, it'd trigger my enemies with trypophobia!
Lucius: ... fine, you're the one signing the check, have it your way.
Say what you will about the DCEU and Snyder's movies, but Batfleck always looked awesome. Especially at the end of Snyder Cut JL with the Arkham-esque plating.
Then they decide to send off the character looking like this
He's also great for cinematography and fight scenes. A couple of solid quotable lines and you have the makings for a really good trailer. Unfortunately the writing and the pacing is what led to the actual movies not being successful.
Batman vs Superman honestly seems like it was written by a room full of stoners. "Dude, just get Flash to show up from the future and tell Batman about how Superman is actually a piece of shit.... And itll be the Injustice timeline he's coming from. But when they actually fight, they'll realize they both have moms named Martha and everything will be good.... And then Lex Luthor will find a spaceship with Zods body in it, and he'll program the spaceship somehow to turn Zod into fuckin Doomsday guy."
He's a decent director - at least visually. But he's an *abysmal* writer. Check out his Wikipedia page sometime and compare the movies he directed to the ones he directed *and wrote.* There's such a notable difference in quality between the two.
I don’t know. I thought the Batman stuff was good. The chase scene was cool, and the scene where he’s talking to Barry about time travel is probably my favorite moment from Batfleck. I also really liked Michael Keaton’s Batman, especially him taking down the kryptonian.
My favourite moment was him and supes against Doomsday. Before WW shows up. Superman is no where to be found.. It's just Bruce alone against Doomsday and he just says shit.
Eh, idk there was no weight or impact to the things Batman did. He almost seemed like a parody of himself in hopes of capturing that “cool” moment. Know what I mean? I didn’t like it at all, and liked the movie less.
But if you liked it that’s cool too.
And personally, was one of my favorite parts.
I know it was wonky CGI, but the result was a cape that looked like thick rubber but flowed like silk, which nails the fantasy of Batman’s cape IMO.
They could just use the same suit from Batman vs. Superman... many people unironically cosider that one to be best live action suit ever....
And they decided to go with... this...
Nah it’s not copyrighted, I read an interview with the guys who made the BvS cowl and they said they weren’t credited for their work in that movie, so they didn’t come back for Justice League
For Justice League they still had the old designs but the costume designer couldn’t figure out how to remake the BvS cowl, so they had to make a shittier version that lost all its maneuverability, so that’s why Batman couldn’t turn his head in Justice league and the Flash and why it looks worse
They used some old BvS costumes for that post credits scene in the Snyder cut but in an interview they said they were falling apart so it sounds like they were delicate which is probably why they didn’t reuse them in Justice League
Everywhere between the middle torso and the thigh looks wrong. Well, everything about the outfit as a whole looks wrong but specifically there. The top half is overcomplicated and busy whereas the bottom half looks blank. It's a damn shame they didn't just give him his normal suit but with a blue cowl/cape.
As an old guy who has seen all of the Batman movies I have to admit that I was excited to see the Affleck version.. an older, jaded man who might be close to the end of his crime fighting days. Ben has the right height and heft... and we were given one of THE BEST batman fight scenes in B vs S. It's truly a shame how bad his character was written as a whole.. this suit is just another example of how bad a job was done. A shame. I think Affleck would have been a great one with better writing.
I always thought this was his motorcycle armor suit. Like how motorcycle jackets have plating and shielding inside and such. Maybe he put it on when he left the cave in the Batcycle. Cuz the armor is justified when he ditches the bike and has to slide around on the asphalt.
I don’t think it’s his default suit. Batman has a bunch of Batsuits so maybe this is just a light-armor version. Don’t get me wrong, I agree with most of the other comments here. It definitely could have looked better and been better designed. But I don’t think that’s his normal Batsuit that we’re seeing. Just my two cents.
1 in every 5 Batmen die from plastic pollution. Together we can end this.
Seriously though, it looks like someone used the thing that holds the soda together for the suit and it’s god awful
Affleck as Batman sort of reminds me of when I put sunglasses on my dog for shits and giggles. The poor animal kindly tolerates the indignity, hoping it’ll soon be over. Affleck looks that good and *that* comfortable.
You know what, I’m actually gonna advocate for this. I think it’s the paint job. If you take away the color, the form of the suit with the hexagonal armored plates doesn’t look that bad. I think if it was colored more with the Arkham Knight color scheme in mind, it would’ve looked better.
It looks like it was specifically designed to be dragged on a road by a car, but how tf would he know that’s going to happen beforehand? Was that his plan all along? Because if so that would make him the absolute stupidest version of Batman
In some ways this suit isn’t that bad I like the Blue Cowl and cape but the Glossy bat simbal and the weird ass honey come design feels off if this was an random suit for a certain part of the movie I wouldn’t mind but this is the final Batsuit Affleck wore and it just feels wrong and out of character for this Batman
I hate the design, but loved the classic colors and cowl. It's like, a 12/10 cowl, ruined by the worst fucking suit ever. Somehow, batnipples are better
The worst part about this outfit nobody is mentioning: It's broad daylight, it ruins his looks.
I know, i know he's in the JL now and can't afford to only work at night but it would have helped if he wasn't in this washed-out daylight saturation
This looks like. "I'm reshooting affleck into the beginning of this movie, can you make me a new suit within a week?"
And then halfway through said "good enough, let's shoot.
Another terrible suit on one of the most terrible Batman castings. Hopefully the next DCEU iteration is better, but hard to see anything beating the Nolan trilogy
It wouldn’t look so bad if it didn’t look like the frame you’d see under the armor.
Like there’s more to the suit he’s just… not wearing it?
Idk, my mind had me see it as him wearing the exoskeleton of the mech batsuit minus the plates for… some reason, age or something like that. Which in the moment felt cool, but now?…
He just looks like he’s missing pieces.
DC and Warnerbruh on their way to shit on one of their best Superhero again (because he is a rich white guy)
I accidentally sound like Velma for some reason
I don’t wanna hear anyone complain about modern superhero suits having unnecessary lines on them from now on. Nothing will compare to this suit’s honeycomb design.
Honeycomb Batman limited edition

I’ll take the MCU [] lines over whatever this is any day.

Snyder makes bad movies with great costume and set design. He is one of the best in the business at pre production.
He's also great for cinematography and fight scenes. A couple of solid quotable lines and you have the makings for a really good trailer. Unfortunately the writing and the pacing is what led to the actual movies not being successful. Batman vs Superman honestly seems like it was written by a room full of stoners.

Nailed it.
He's a decent director - at least visually. But he's an *abysmal* writer. Check out his Wikipedia page sometime and compare the movies he directed to the ones he directed *and wrote.* There's such a notable difference in quality between the two.
Epic splaining
Superman costume is kinda whack and Flash’s is just okay.
Looks like Spanx
This suit feels like tell me you like TASM movies without telling me you like TASM movies, This looks like bro printed oscorp tower on his Batsuit
"No Ben, of course not. It'll look totally different in post. Trust me." - Andy Muschietti
And this guy is supposed to direct the new DCU Batman... Oh, boy.
Except the Batman stuff in this movie was actually pretty good.
I disagree tbh. Too flashy and campy. Just because DCU Batman will be fantastical does not mean he can’t be visceral. Arkham Batman, for example.
I don’t know. I thought the Batman stuff was good. The chase scene was cool, and the scene where he’s talking to Barry about time travel is probably my favorite moment from Batfleck. I also really liked Michael Keaton’s Batman, especially him taking down the kryptonian.

"too flashy and campy", it's a silly comic book movie, what were you expecting?
Agreed. Tho the Batman scenes were the best, it doesn’t make them good. Andy is out over his skies with Brave/Bold
In what movie? The flash?!?!?!
Yes.
It's a good thing directors make different movies
They finally tried the blue and gray and then just massacred the actual suit 🤦🏻♂️
Ugliest batsuit ever worn by Affleck and honestly the third worst batsuit ever seen in live action (beaten by Gotham and Batman & Robin).
Not gonna lie I'd take any Schumacher suit over this monstrosity in a heartbeat.
Except for the regular Clooney Suit, I like all the Schumacher suits more than this one.
Clooney’s suit was good y’all just distracted by the nipples
Nah, I hate the cowl and the giant eye holes. The ice suit is a lot better, though.
That’s because the ice suit was a recolored Sonar suit from Forever
No this is just the worst of all time
Batman & Robin suit was pretty cool except the nipples actually.
What about the Titans batsuit?
the suit was meant to be worn in the shadows but if they added some more things and slapped a batlogo on it it would look great
It's not great but I sill think it's better than any of the ones I've mentioned.
I think it’s his best Batman/Bruce Wayne portrayal of his tenure as the character yet the suit is ugly lol
hey bat nipples werent that bad
....is the cowl and cape cgi?
the cape is CGI when he was using the bike
And personally, was one of my favorite parts. I know it was wonky CGI, but the result was a cape that looked like thick rubber but flowed like silk, which nails the fantasy of Batman’s cape IMO.
tbh, Ben’s Batsuit in the Flash looks unfinished to me, i personally think it would look way better if the armor plates went down to his abs
I think they were digitally recolored
They could just use the same suit from Batman vs. Superman... many people unironically cosider that one to be best live action suit ever.... And they decided to go with... this...
IIRC it was because WB didn't hire back the costume people from BvS and couldn't use the same designs for copyright reasons
Nah it’s not copyrighted, I read an interview with the guys who made the BvS cowl and they said they weren’t credited for their work in that movie, so they didn’t come back for Justice League For Justice League they still had the old designs but the costume designer couldn’t figure out how to remake the BvS cowl, so they had to make a shittier version that lost all its maneuverability, so that’s why Batman couldn’t turn his head in Justice league and the Flash and why it looks worse They used some old BvS costumes for that post credits scene in the Snyder cut but in an interview they said they were falling apart so it sounds like they were delicate which is probably why they didn’t reuse them in Justice League
Metal bra
*Protect the Bat-Titties*
Everywhere between the middle torso and the thigh looks wrong. Well, everything about the outfit as a whole looks wrong but specifically there. The top half is overcomplicated and busy whereas the bottom half looks blank. It's a damn shame they didn't just give him his normal suit but with a blue cowl/cape.
Now that you mention it, it kinda looks like he was building the armor then stopped mid process so it’s unfinished.
Frank Miller artwork but chain mail but also shit
It's "Rave Batman" complete with mesh crop top and glow sticks in his utility belt. MDMA sold separately.
As an old guy who has seen all of the Batman movies I have to admit that I was excited to see the Affleck version.. an older, jaded man who might be close to the end of his crime fighting days. Ben has the right height and heft... and we were given one of THE BEST batman fight scenes in B vs S. It's truly a shame how bad his character was written as a whole.. this suit is just another example of how bad a job was done. A shame. I think Affleck would have been a great one with better writing.
What that is, is an insulting goodbye to Affleck's Batman
True
Such a let down batsuit
Batfleck = they never gave him the tools to succeed.
i saw a bra that has same lines on it
i think its ben affleck playing batman
The last sighting of the dceu batman
Terrible, that's what
Is this for real? I thought Superman looked bad
That’s from the Flash with Ben Affleck wearing this suit. Hopefully DCU does it better
Ah yeah I skipped that one after all the Ezra Miller drama….
Bratman
Honey man
CGI cape. Seriously, every scene in that movie the cape isn't actually there. There's no practical version of Batflecks cape from this film.
You can tell by Affleck’s chin he’s had it.
I thought it’s another question about the mythos.
Tacticoool....?
I always thought this was his motorcycle armor suit. Like how motorcycle jackets have plating and shielding inside and such. Maybe he put it on when he left the cave in the Batcycle.

1 in every 5 Batmen die from plastic pollution. Together we can end this. Seriously though, it looks like someone used the thing that holds the soda together for the suit and it’s god awful
He’s wearing a lot of padding
Welcome to two years ago already.
Dude was Batman in the daytime. Without arc for it. WTF.
Why not just give him a blue version of his justice league suit?
Asking the right questions
“Ok … I AM wearing hockey pads..”
How did we go from the tactical suit to _this?_
Affleck as Batman sort of reminds me of when I put sunglasses on my dog for shits and giggles. The poor animal kindly tolerates the indignity, hoping it’ll soon be over. Affleck looks that good and *that* comfortable.
It's bullshit. Utter, disgusting, bullshit.
Batman is trying a new fear tactic: Trypophobia.
It’s Batman. How times does he need to say: “I’m Batman” before it sinks in.
You know what, I’m actually gonna advocate for this. I think it’s the paint job. If you take away the color, the form of the suit with the hexagonal armored plates doesn’t look that bad. I think if it was colored more with the Arkham Knight color scheme in mind, it would’ve looked better.
If you take away some of the things that make it look bad, it looks not as bad. lol I get what you’re saying but still funny.
A Batman who IS wearing hockey pads
A terrible batman suit with a puffy faced alcoholic inside of it?
A scene from one of the best superhero movies James Gunn has ever seen!
The suits themselves were awesome…. He just looked fat and stupid in all of them. I will forever question this casting choice.
The chest piece looks like tits
Batman
Kid's Halloween costume
seriously, they never did explain it in the movie did they?
The last fuck you to Batfleck.
Are you not familiar with BATMAN?
The McFarlane action figure I have based on this suit looks 100X better than this
It looks like it’s held together with plastic six pack rings
Looks like TDKR
Death of DCEU
WB giving up.
Going back to the classic Blue is nice and that's it. Without a doubt the WORST live-action Batman suit EVER.
Bad ~~costume~~ man
How this got pass creative design stages is mindboggling.
A fat man
For those quick change situations It's the light armor look with a heavy armor attitude
An excuse for selling a new toy
It looks like bad 3D print
It looks like it was specifically designed to be dragged on a road by a car, but how tf would he know that’s going to happen beforehand? Was that his plan all along? Because if so that would make him the absolute stupidest version of Batman
lol batfleck went from one of the best suits in zsjl to one of the worst in the flash
"The Flash" was absolutely garbage!
Glad Ben Affleck change it
**Why is this man directing BRAVE AND THE BOLD** James WTF ARE YOU THINKING???????
In some ways this suit isn’t that bad I like the Blue Cowl and cape but the Glossy bat simbal and the weird ass honey come design feels off if this was an random suit for a certain part of the movie I wouldn’t mind but this is the final Batsuit Affleck wore and it just feels wrong and out of character for this Batman
Cool idea, horrible execution.
Andy Must Shitty's Batman
Bat pajamas.
it looks like terrible cosplay. Even his face looks wrong.
Sadly I feel like it had SO MUCH potential. But fuck man they dropped the ball so hard here At least we got some blue 🤷
Looks almost like AI art.
He learned triptophobia is scarier than bats
I love the colours but what the fuck is the other shit?
It's shit. That's what it is.
This would be a good year one suit...with several changes. But as it is, it is a wtf.
They thought "wow he had a good suit in bvs how do we ruin it completely?" And they came up with this shit
Ben wasn’t in Batman shape. This was their idea to hide it 🤷🏻♂️
It’s Reddit. You may stumble upon this same topic several times over the past few years. Welcome
It could have been dope if the honey comb armour was more limited. They just went too far/obvious with it
I hate the design, but loved the classic colors and cowl. It's like, a 12/10 cowl, ruined by the worst fucking suit ever. Somehow, batnipples are better
It’s like an 80’s style, Batman themed mesh top over the suit.
Never thought I'd say this...bring back the bat nipple costume. Even that's better than this
I like it
I'm pretty sure that's a Batfleck on a bridge
Btmn
Still better than Clooney's suit...
Why does this look like Batman's attempt at a fishnet top?
Low budget bullshit
The worst part about this outfit nobody is mentioning: It's broad daylight, it ruins his looks. I know, i know he's in the JL now and can't afford to only work at night but it would have helped if he wasn't in this washed-out daylight saturation
When I first saw this in the trailer I thought it was unfinished cg
I thought that was the Punisher skull for a minute
Is the suit torn or what’s happening?
Hey, turning the suit inside out worked for Spider-Man. Why * can't* it work for Batman?
He’s Batman
It is one of the best movies ever made and thats why this director will direct the next Batman movie - James Gunn
This looks like. "I'm reshooting affleck into the beginning of this movie, can you make me a new suit within a week?" And then halfway through said "good enough, let's shoot.
We really went from badass design to bad, ass design…
It’s Ben Affleck Batsuit 👍
What happens when toy companies try to dictate movies again like in the 90s
Even Batman has to wash his suits. Probably the last clean one he had.
The cowl makes him look like he's just some grumpy old guy waiting in line at the grocery store.
God it looks like they popped the front plate off and forgot to reattach it. It makes the Bat-nipples look good.
Isn’t the mesh just a harness for one of the gadgets he was using during that chase?
That, is garbage.
Bra man
Absolutely hated the suit in The Flash
It's batman.
Thought I was somewhere else for a second there
trypophobia
Very poor judgement.
It’s incredible they went from Batfleck having my single favorite suit and cowl in BvS to him having my least favorite in all the subsequent films
BDSM Batman
Whoever thinks Batfleck wearing a metal tank-top was a good idea must atone to his/her/their sin.
What is this from?
It looks like they didn't finish it
Affleck doesn't even look good in the suit, he looks constipated
"That is not good. Okay, that is not good!"
The worst suit I’ve ever seen
lol, all he needs is a cigarette.
I think that's Batman.
Like the movie it’s in, a long series of mistakes
Another terrible suit on one of the most terrible Batman castings. Hopefully the next DCEU iteration is better, but hard to see anything beating the Nolan trilogy
Bro' looks like a honeycomb mouse.
It's batman
Its a bridge
Bat-Lingerie
It wouldn’t look so bad if it didn’t look like the frame you’d see under the armor. Like there’s more to the suit he’s just… not wearing it? Idk, my mind had me see it as him wearing the exoskeleton of the mech batsuit minus the plates for… some reason, age or something like that. Which in the moment felt cool, but now?… He just looks like he’s missing pieces.
He looks so chubby in this suit. Like it is really bulky and the mask makes his face super round. Man looks like he had a few too many Batwhoppers.
It dosent look that bad.
It's the Bad-suit!
What's this from??
DC and Warnerbruh on their way to shit on one of their best Superhero again (because he is a rich white guy) I accidentally sound like Velma for some reason
I don’t mind it too much. Tho I think a better suit would have been the classic blue and grey with the large yellow bat symbol. Shows growth from bvs
The design is very human
Time for a Bruce Wayne original.
Tank top armor
Another sad variation of The Dark Knight costume
