Nevertheless, after I sat back and reflected upon the scenario, I realized that change is not always a bad thing. Plus as it pertains to the forthcoming Amazing Spider-Man 2 movie and all of its swirling rumors [which is slated for release on May 2, 2014], this isn't even the "new costume of Electro"; this is "the skin tone of the man that will be wearing the new costume of Electro". I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the final costume will be.
Speaking of final costumes, the attire worn by Henry Cavil in the forthcoming Man of Steel 2013 movie does look a bit too... strange for me to digest. The two last pics above are from a recent issue of Entertainment Weekly magazine. Anyway, Zach Snyder, the guy behind the director's chair for the past movies 300 and Sucker Punch, seems to be the one that green-lit the costume of Superman, along with the execs at DC comics that approved it and presented it to him. But Zach Snyder has never been known for bright colors and radiant hues in his movies. Thus the new Superman doesn't really look as bright as he did in the old 80s movies. This new Superman looks almost like a futuristic cosplay for the 2013 San Diego Comic Con. Not too sure if it was Jim Lee who designed Superman's movie costume, getting rid of the red speedos and giving him just the blue tights. But I could've sworn that Jim Lees New 52 version of Superman had a damn belt. [Jim's latest Superman costume design is over Here].
Well, all we can do at this point is sit back and hope that Superman does not fall short of the fanboy expectations.... if not, rest assured, DC Comics will be rebooting it again in the next 3 years, as they try to copy Marvel and what they're doing right now with the Amazing Spider-Man 2!
