My 6 Favorite Superhero Movie Costumes
Once upon a time, it was not cool to be a superhero movie. Nowadays, people are gushing about Spider-Man’s next cinematic costume at Marvel, and movie-makers are promising that the X-Men in their new Apocalypse film are going to wear comics-accurate costumes. But back in the day, superhero costumes were too dorky to wear! Do you all remember the original X-Men movie and the matching black leather? That’s what you needed to have to make a superhero movie before they were cool.
Thank God we don’t live in that sort of world anymore!
They were indeed dark days
I have long since given up being a stickler about comic-to-movie adaptations. I’m actually in favor of changes, cosmetic or otherwise, as long as it’s a good movie. I didn’t mind the all-leather X-Men costumes, or that weird homemade costume in the first Amazing Spider-Man, or even the original red leather Daredevil costume. But like everybody else, I’ve got my favorites!
Join me after the jump to see my six favorite superhero (or villain) costumes at the movies!
The Wasp is Definitely Coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
Normally I try to stay on top of cool casting announcements in all the best superhero TV shows and movies, but this one is trickier. If you haven’t seen Ant-Man yet, I don’t want to spoil anything. But at the same time, this is a pretty big deal. Anytime Marvel pushes a female superhero in their movies needs to be a big deal now.
She was a founding Avenger, gosh darn it!
So I’m going to save all the key information until after the jump. Just know that Marvel Studios Grand Master, Kevin Feige, has confirmed that the Wasp will appear somewhere in Phase 3. She won’t show up with Ant-Man in next year’s Captain America: Civil War. But there are going to be a bunch of Phase 3 films, including the two-part Infinity War. So she’ll likely debut in one of those.
Join me after the jump for the lowdown on the Wasp and a look at her costume! SPOILERS for Ant-Man — which, for the record, was a really good movie!
This is Probably the Ideal Way to Start a Glorious Day!
I present to you, courtesy of the Internet, Mad Max: Fury Road in the style of Yakety Sax! And not just regular Yakety Sax, but heavy metal Yakety Sax!
Now just go ahead and let that stick in your brains for the rest of the day! You’ll be all set!
Unfortunately, the Mad Max: Fury Road DVD doesn’t come out until October! That’s forever from now! Ugh. Ah well, thanks to 6S Films for making this little diddy.

Only Leigh Knows the Dark Truth About Marvel Movies
Only Leigh remains the best. And only she seems to understand!
I don’t know why everybody’s getting burnt out about superhero movies. They’re all still awesome films and very entertaining. There are always going to be more movies, why not let them get made by people who clearly know what they’re doing and make good movies?

The Ant-Man LEGO Trailer is Here!
We all knew this was coming, right? Whoever these grand LEGO magicians are, they weren’t going to pass up the Ant-Man trailer!
I went out and bought my own Ant-Man LEGOs the other day! They’re super neat. The Ant-Man costume and helmet are so detailed! And you get to make Antony! Solid LEGO set all around. And kudos to Toscano Bricks for the great trailer.
