Not sure if the burnside costume works for live action. I like the idea but it’s not working for me. I’d rather the cast work out a costume for their own world like “The Batman.” Inspired by the comics however, touched up to fit into the world they’re creating.
Finally someone said this. In another thread everyone was gushing over it. I’m happy for them, but I can’t take this thing seriously at all. It looks really campy, and I can’t imagine this replacing Batman as the protector of Gotham let alone becoming a mainstay in the JL. Hope this is just a ‘training’ suit and there is a proper suit after.
Agree. Fidelity to the source material is not automatically a positive thing. The first two Harry Potter movies are a testament to this. Different media have different needs.
I'm the opposite. I didn't like this costume in the comics, it looked too cheap and self-made. I think it looks better as a live-action version. And honestly, I don't understand why people liked the self-made look in the comics (less realistic medium), but not in the movie (more realistic medium).
I think the suit itself is fine but it doesn’t look good on grace. If the actress was a teenager with a shorter bubblier stature it would look better. Leslie had a more mature sharp look which would be a better fit for a sharper leaner suit. But hey who knows maybe it would look a lot better with post production and better lighting
I think that this has to be the temporary suit. This is a modified biker suit, I think. Keaton batman might provide her with the actual suit later down the line. I'm fine with this as well tho.
i think if you want to go super simple with a suit it shouldn't be all shiny and reflective like this, if this was a matte fabric/material it would've looked way better imo.
It’s very accurate but it looks very Affleck Daredevil to me, I understand what they’re going for but it just doesn’t look very good in live action imo.
Nope, not feeling it. Face it DC fans, Warner brothers just cant get the formula right for the DC hero universe. Squandering away Henry Cavil as Superman is the biggest mistake and they just keep shitting on themselves. It’s a giant train wreck.
It's a direct adaptation of the Stewart's Batgirl run from 2014 in which Barbara includes Doc Martens style boots to her costume, it is obviously a starting costume.
Defending it because it’s «homemade » doesn’t make it look less shitty, plenty of superhero movies where they have homemade suits that look good ( spider-man) this one just looks like shit
I'm torn. It's realistic for a "first" suit. But can they really justify the color scheme? It's incredibly bright and vivid for someone trying to emulate Batman. The suit is supposed to be an extension of the characters personality, a statement, but I don't get what this is trying to say. Very comic accurate, but is it DCEU accurate? Maybe even just losing the tiny useless yellow cape would make this work. I guess what I'm trying to say is, who would wear this suit? Why? Seems like something was lost in translation.
All of this might be answered in the movie, Batgirl sure is more light hearted than Bruce itself which might explain the purple + sounds like we are getting Robin too, so this is a Batgirl who saw Batman next to many other bright superheroes. It's totally fine for me.
Looks terrible. Say what you want about the Zack Snyder movies but those costumes looked amazing. This honestly looks cheap. Hopefully it’s something that turns out better during the movie.
People calling this CW style,really?There adapting a look straight from the comics. Its not bad,it looks homemade,which should be accurate to where Batgirl is at.Also you can diss the CW for almost anything,but their costume design is not the worst thing.
Green Arrow always looked great in the CW and even though Flash's quality of writing might decrease, the suit always seems to get more comic accurate as the seasons passed.
I mean even if that’s what they’re doing, the lighting and composition of the image makes it look like a bad low budget production, and that’s probably part of what people are reacting to. Maybe it’ll look fine on film but this doesn’t exactly instill a lot of confidence.
Pretty sure nobody disses CW when they compare with it. You just gotta have to know that this is some big budget stuff and you get a low budget style. And don't even use this "hOmEmaDe" excuse crap, we're in 2022 now, we don't need to go back to 2000s to justify this nonesense style.
The CW makes good suits. Lol. The Flash Season 8 suit, the new Superman suit, Stargirl’s suit, the new Supergirl suit…. Sure they’re not movie level perfect, but for a TV show, they’re pretty damn good.
Not even commenting on the suit itself, this is a terrible, terrible first image to release. The lighting is bad, the composition is really random and it’s kind of out of focus. It makes it look like a cheap low budget production or cosplay.
I really want to be positive about this project because I love Barb but I’ve seen and heard nothing that excites me. This doesn’t look good but I’ll withhold judgement until we see everything in live action after production is finished.
I seriously don't understand how people are exited for a year 1 Batgirl having a 70 year old Batman. There's NO way anyone actually thinks it's a good idea
I haven't watched The Flash regularly since Season 3, but I've seen like one episode a season since. I'd say most of the CW Flash suits look better than the Flash suits I've seen in the movies.
If it’s supposed to be her first suit then I think it’s pretty good but I would hope they have a reveal towards the end or in her next appearance with a more “professional” suit.
I have to believe at some point of the movie (maybe when she encounters Firefly for the first time ?) this suit is going to get badly damaged and Bruce will then give her an upgraded armored suit, i refuse to believe WB is going to let the poor girl walk around the entirety of the film wearing THAT.
I love how everyone is hating on the suit… what if this is the suit she created and if it is then there is no way she is gonna have all the same tech as Batman yet I think this is before she is really in the fold with batteam like the comics batgirl year 1
People are forgetting that Barbara is not a billionaire or a tech genius at this point, she is a normal young woman fighting crime secretly and on her own. It makes sense her costume would actually kind of look like cosplay. I'm sure once Keaton's Batman takes her under his wing she'll get an upgrade.
When compared with the source material, I really think this looks great. I’m not sure they picked the best pose or light source, but looking at it closely the details in the suit really bring it all together. I’m excited to see this in action.
I get the accuracy of the color scheme but in a more serious film it's definitely extremely impractical, especially for "stealth" purposes. I would, however, be interested to see a "darker" version of the suit which would then maybe "light up" into a version similar to this whenever she wants to reveal herself or something.
Both can open the door for an expanded Gotham roster. Batgirl can intro those that will be part of the JL universe and Reeves can intro those he’d like to use in his world. An exciting time for Bat fans.
Y’all are so fucking annoying sometimes, it’s like every time something releases some of you act like you’ve never followed superhero movie news before.
Seeing as this film will be Barbara’s origin story this costume makes a lot of sense. It’s like how Spidey had a very cheap looking homemade costume before meeting Tony Stark.
I think it looks really good, I do wish the color was a bit less saturated for the body of the suit and personally since she was probably in character inspired by Keaton and personally think it would’ve been cool to have a less shiner utility belt and Symbol the with like matte yellow to get a stronger connection point through having the one color correlation to his suit story wise for inspiration and just think it’d look better. I think the cowl looks amazing and I think overall it looks really good. Those are just small critiques based on my personal preferences, but overall I think it looks like a really good suit and I enjoy that they went this route for type of design that I was also really excited when they did this in the comics. It’d be really cool to see them go into how amazing her memory if they go that route I love really cool mind stuff for reconstructing things in your head like they’ll do in Sherlock Holmes and they do in quite a bit of games and other things I always enjoy that personally.
Not sure if the burnside costume works for live action. I like the idea but it’s not working for me. I’d rather the cast work out a costume for their own world like “The Batman.” Inspired by the comics however, touched up to fit into the world they’re creating.
I googled the burnside suit, it looks. I think the amount of wrinkles on this live action suit also contribute to it looking “cheap”
Looks like a lower budget CW show outfit, like the studio will pay for a better one if it’s renewed for a second season.
Finally someone said this. In another thread everyone was gushing over it. I’m happy for them, but I can’t take this thing seriously at all. It looks really campy, and I can’t imagine this replacing Batman as the protector of Gotham let alone becoming a mainstay in the JL.

The boots. I hate them.
They look like clown shoes.
Was ganna say the same thing . Just doesn’t fit for me ☹️
Are they yellow Dr. Martins?
I would've been pretty upset if those weren't the boots they've used. Love them!
It just looks like a high quality cosplay. If someone showed me that without me knowing it was for a movie I would never of guessed.
I think the suit itself is fine but it doesn’t look good on grace. If the actress was a teenager with a shorter bubblier stature it would look better. Leslie had a more mature sharp look which would be a better fit for a sharper leaner suit. But hey who knows maybe it would look a lot better with post production and better lighting
Now it's trash with boots
I think that this has to be the temporary suit. This is a modified biker suit, I think. Keaton batman might provide her with the actual suit later down the line. I'm fine with this as well tho.
why is every first suit need to be a temp suit? or do people just say it just because?
Great way to hype up your female hero. Getting a ready suit from a rich white dude.
Not a huge fan tbh 😭
I hate that WB is going to give us this, and then claim there's no interest in batgirl when it fails.
Looks cw esque…am I the only one?
This isn’t it for me. I could go into what I think is bad about it but it’d be shorter to go into what’s good about it. Which unfortunately isn’t much
i think if you want to go super simple with a suit it shouldn't be all shiny and reflective like this, if this was a matte fabric/material it would've looked way better imo.
I'm not too keen on this look
Is this for CW?
It’s very accurate but it looks very Affleck Daredevil to me, I understand what they’re going for but it just doesn’t look very good in live action imo.
They literally chose bat girls worst costume in the comics for live action. It looks very cheap... I'm disappointed. Leslie deserves better
2nd look of cheap ass cosplay
Nope, not feeling it. Face it DC fans, Warner brothers just cant get the formula right for the DC hero universe. Squandering away Henry Cavil as Superman is the biggest mistake and they just keep shitting on themselves. It’s a giant train wreck.
The Arkham suit is so much cleaner to me, this suit is for a cosplaying tween, it looks weird on an adult
Those shoes lol
It's a direct adaptation of the Stewart's Batgirl run from 2014 in which Barbara includes Doc Martens style boots to her costume, it is obviously a starting costume.
Batgirl? Clowngirl is more like it.
Obviously this is her first suit but that doesn’t mean I have to like it. It looks cheap.
I’m gonna put some dirt in your eye
Defending it because it’s «homemade » doesn’t make it look less shitty, plenty of superhero movies where they have homemade suits that look good ( spider-man) this one just looks like shit
I'm torn. It's realistic for a "first" suit. But can they really justify the color scheme? It's incredibly bright and vivid for someone trying to emulate Batman.

Not a fan tbh. Hoping this is just a home made suit and she gets a proper one at the end of the movie.
Oh this is a fucking atrocity
Bruh.
Looks terrible. Say what you want about the Zack Snyder movies but those costumes looked amazing. This honestly looks cheap. Hopefully it’s something that turns out better during the movie.
Bro why does she look like Angelina Jolie in this picture lol. I’m sorry but I keep looking at her face and it looks like her cheeks gotten sunken in
Just when you thought it couldn’t get worse, they give her Sora’s boots from his KH1 outfit.
DCU is almost embarrassing.
What the fuck are those
The lighting isn’t doing any favors here. It’s adding to the cheap look.
This is whos gonna replace Batman? Yeah looks like DC aint even trying no more.
[удалено]
What's the track record for that so far in current DC lol
Its small things that matter
Yup sweet let’s put this up against marvel movies and costume designs. Good luck.
Yeh the chorus of whining always subsides after the DC movie gets released.../s
Hard no.
Reminds me of Tom Holland’s homemade suit Idk why so much hate for a preliminary photo shoot
This is an official release?
I liked that better
Pretty bad ngl
People calling this CW style,really?There adapting a look straight from the comics. Its not bad,it looks homemade,which should be accurate to where Batgirl is at.Also you can diss the CW for almost anything,but their costume design is not the worst thing.
Green Arrow always looked great in the CW and even though Flash's quality of writing might decrease, the suit always seems to get more comic accurate as the seasons passed.
I’d assume some 20 something year old cop wouldn’t have the ability to make some high tech suit so it definitely should look homemade.
I guess cuz it’s basically the texture and look of a motorcycle outfit but hey, it’s the best a tv budget can do 🤷🏽♂️
I mean even if that’s what they’re doing, the lighting and composition of the image makes it look like a bad low budget production, and that’s probably part of what people are reacting to. Maybe it’ll look fine on film but this doesn’t exactly instill a lot of confidence.

Adapting a suit from the comics isn’t an excuse for it looking worse than a CW costume lol.
Why black gloves, though?
You missed the formal brown shoes.
Looks like the costume department is aiming for a Razzie
Man, doesn't do a good job of hiding her face at all.
.... kind of like Superman?
Yikes.
Ridiculous. What criminal is going to be afraid of her? They will laugh their asses off then kick hers!
I mean come on
The suit looks weird. Hopefully it’s just the lighting.
Oh God stop its worse!
Can’t believe this was released. This is an embarrassment
Thanks, I hate it.
Yea, what makes this look bad is definitely the lighting. Makes it look really bad, like CW bad.
The CW makes good suits. Lol. The Flash Season 8 suit, the new Superman suit, Stargirl’s suit, the new Supergirl suit…. Sure they’re not movie level perfect, but for a TV show, they’re pretty damn good.
Leslie looking great as ever. Love the suit
What the hell? Those look like clown shoes.
This does not look good!
I hated it
Trash
I like the suit, but those boots....?
Have to say the boots are one of my favorite parts lol. So nice to see a female superhero not wearing heels for once.
Not even commenting on the suit itself, this is a terrible, terrible first image to release. The lighting is bad, the composition is really random and it’s kind of out of focus. It makes it look like a cheap low budget production or cosplay.
How old is batgirl supposed to be in the movie? I always associated this suit/colors with her in her late teens early 20s ,
I really want to be positive about this project because I love Barb but I’ve seen and heard nothing that excites me. This doesn’t look good but I’ll withhold judgement until we see everything in live action after production is finished.
Too many wrinkle for me
Meh
The texture reminds me of the small packages shipped from Amazon
Gonna try to say something positive.. here goes!!
Good point!
Ehh....meh...not sold on this
meh
I seriously don't understand how people are exited for a year 1 Batgirl having a 70 year old Batman. There's NO way anyone actually thinks it's a good idea
This sub is full of people who are.....I'm not.
Costume looks pretty good, this is basically her homemade suit so it makes sense that it doesn’t look immaculate. I just hope the movie itself is good
Didn’t think it could get worse, but it did.
Seen better cosplays of her at comic con
It looks bad even by homemade standards. This looks like middle of the road cosplay shit.
Maybe that’s the point, to make her look insanely unprofessional at first
“Even by homemade standards” Tobey wore a ski mask a sweater and gloves meanwhile Andrew wore a red mask, sunglasses, and a leather jacket
It gets worse 😭
Clown boots.. joker boots? Must be.. feels like a joke
Suit looks awful and so cheap. I feel bad for Leslie Grace.
Literally ripped off the comic page
I haven't watched The Flash regularly since Season 3, but I've seen like one episode a season since. I'd say most of the CW Flash suits look better than the Flash suits I've seen in the movies.
Literally looks like Cosplay, the lightning of the picture and everything!
Everyone's gonna ignore her. Lol. Goodluck WB.
Dude where her boobies?
If it’s supposed to be her first suit then I think it’s pretty good but I would hope they have a reveal towards the end or in her next appearance with a more “professional” suit.
Clowngirl with those fkn boots
yo that shit looks whack yo
Why is she wearing clown shoes ? Are those real?
Look like cw , but lets wait for the actual trailer to really judge...
Finally some common sense
Looks like a CW suit. It could’ve been so much better
This looks even better.
Welcome to the new dc.. snyder doesn’t look so bad now does he lol
Actualy his vision looks even worse with all the great new content coming out
I have to believe at some point of the movie (maybe when she encounters Firefly for the first time ?) this suit is going to get badly damaged and Bruce will then give her an upgraded armored suit, i refuse to believe WB is going to let the poor girl walk around the entirety of the film wearing THAT.
Perfection. This is probably her first suit and will upgrade it throughout her career. I'm not a fan of Burnside but makes sense. I still love it.
Anyone defending this is blind. Looks like crap. I’ll give the show a chance, but not a fan of the suit.
Batgirl of Burnside...ehh..
Looks just like the Burnside suit! I love it as a prototype, I'm 1001% sure BatKeaton makes her a new one.
Them big ass boots 😂
I'll be honest, at first glance I am not a huge fan even though it's a clear adaptation from the Stewart design (which I love).
I actually really like the boots personally they look nice and utilitarian and it's great to see a female superhero not wearing heels for once
They look like clown shoes.
They have a certain Frank Miller quality, but I'm still reminded more of Hit Girl.
That's true. Heels are pretty impractical.
The more I look at the suit the more I like it but these photos they’re releasing could be better quality, right? Or am I going crazy?
I love how everyone is hating on the suit… what if this is the suit she created and if it is then there is no way she is gonna have all the same tech as Batman yet I think this is before she is really in the fold with batteam like the comics batgirl year 1
People are forgetting that Barbara is not a billionaire or a tech genius at this point, she is a normal young woman fighting crime secretly and on her own. It makes sense her costume would actually kind of look like cosplay. I'm sure once Keaton's Batman takes her under his wing she'll get an upgrade.
What's with the clown shoes?
You’re telling me people don’t know this is Barbara Gordon? Loool
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
A female superhero WITHOUT stiletto heels? I can dig it!
Straight from the books and yet it's deemed as bad... This sub I swear.
Is that another persons shadow in the back??
I think it looks amazing. Other than the boots, they just feel like they don't belong.
When compared with the source material, I really think this looks great. I’m not sure they picked the best pose or light source, but looking at it closely the details in the suit really bring it all together. I’m excited to see this in action.
Yeah, she looks like she could beat more than 1 person up.
Still looks like Batwoman...now with boots.
I’m hoping there is a second costume later in the movie that doesn’t look like she dyed a leather jacket and jeans
Meh looks homemade but if they want it to look like that then it’s fine I guess 🤷♂️
ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Leslie Grace is fine as hell.
I get the accuracy of the color scheme but in a more serious film it's definitely extremely impractical, especially for "stealth" purposes. I would, however, be interested to see a "darker" version of the suit which would then maybe "light up" into a version similar to this whenever she wants to reveal herself or something.
I’m actually more excited for this movie than The Batman. Batgirl might open the door for more Batfamily members showing up in live-action film!
The Batman looks like actual Cinema though
Both can open the door for an expanded Gotham roster. Batgirl can intro those that will be part of the JL universe and Reeves can intro those he’d like to use in his world. An exciting time for Bat fans.
Y’all are so fucking annoying sometimes, it’s like every time something releases some of you act like you’ve never followed superhero movie news before.
Come on people this is a proto suit and straight from the comics.
Lets just put a stop to DCEU and just focus on animation. Then when MCU masterpiece is finished, get everyone over there to switch to DC.
Meh I’m done with batman until they do batman beyond justice
[удалено]
Seeing as this film will be Barbara’s origin story this costume makes a lot of sense. It’s like how Spidey had a very cheap looking homemade costume before meeting Tony Stark.
It's actually good but it would be great if it's less baggy and more armoury
I kinda dig it, it's simple and straight forward but honestly it looks CW, but not in a bad way, CW has great suits like the Flash, arrow, supergirl.
2nd shadow looks like it could be a Robin
I don’t think it’s gonna be her final suit. The concept art had a completely different design so I thinks that’s gonna be her final look.
I think it looks really good, I do wish the color was a bit less saturated for the body of the suit and personally since she was probably in character inspired by Keaton and personally think it would’ve been cool to have a less shiner utility belt and Symbol the with like matte yellow to get a stronger connection point through having the one color correlation to his suit story wise for inspiration and just think it’d look better. I think the cowl looks amazing and I think overall it looks really good. Those are just small critiques based on my personal preferences, but overall I think it looks like a really good suit and I enjoy that they went this route for type of design that I was also really excited when they did this in the comics. It’d be really cool to see them go into how amazing her memory if they go that route I love really cool mind stuff for reconstructing things in your head like they’ll do in Sherlock Holmes and they do in quite a bit of games and other things I always enjoy that personally.
Im digging it. For the origins story and first try its pretty decent (:
Love it.
Really like it
Impressive.
