    are you just now figuring out Hollywood and most other corporate industries have long lost the ability to figure out what people want?

    You could tell them that most human beings eat food and they'd see that as a shock and then try and make movie about animated food items doing the floss

      That's not accurate, though. That's like asking for an accurate Hulk and then getting the Jolly Green Giant.

        Then what would you consider accurate?

      That's not accurate, that's MODOK's body with Corey Stoll's stupid face comically stretched over it, which they did on purpose because they have contempt for the source material. MODOK has a grotesque inhuman face, with deep wrinkles and a permanent sneer. Ideally he would've been a practical puppet made by Jim Henson or Rick Baker. Something that would've looked good on film, like pic related.

      If you can't see the difference you might have autism.

        Bruh, at this point, the movies ARE the source material.

          not how words work. They're more popular than the source is what you're trying to say.

    The DP3 Wolverine rightfully still has the authentic quality detail, texture and materials of the tacticool suits it is just more colorful.

    99% of people are not asking for cheap garbage like the dollar store tier classic Loki Halloween costume.

    No one has ever wanted inaccurate costumes. Hollywood is run by people who always have to take credit for everything, so they refuse to adapt anything without changing it to a new version that they can take credit for.

    The new wolverine suit is still tacticool, it's not a 1 to 1 translation of his comic costume. It's really armory even compared to Deadpool's costume right next to him, it looks like it has terrible mobility

      >"Oh you can't make a skin tight suit that doesn't look like cheap 70s TV spandex"
      Sam Raimi's Spider-Man is a highly successful blockbuster from the early 2000s with a skintight costume that's so good it's still the best live action one the character ever had and beats all shitty tacticool redesigns of the MCU cast

        It's not bad in herently but different mediums present different problems. Especially since 90% of movies are presented in a quasi-grounded reality where superheroes don't exist vs comics where the whole conceit is basically "this is just how things are done, we're trying to look like Superheroes"
        Another issue is usually effort and ability. Most movie makers don't have the patience or ability to make a comic accurate costume, care about shooting it correctly in every light, etc. It's a lot of time and effort for something they don't like in the first place. Which is why you usually get it in movies purely as a low effort gag.
        Also the fact there's no real one comic source, you've got tons of different artists drawing in different styles, they draw shit with different colors and textures, and even then what it would look like in reality is inferred by the viewer. Like for me, I always assumed that Harley Quinn's outfit was a kind of felt/velour and others saw it as straight up leather or lycra spandex because it's just draw as flat and impossibly lit.
        There's no exact 1:1 and even the movies still don't really want to do that/think it'll work.

        They added a shit ton of texture to that though. Raised webbing, everything. He's a closer attempt than most but not exactly comic accurate either, especially when it gets to the black suit. That being said, you've got nerds doing this on a budget of 100s of dollars taking decent pictures with phone cameras. Bull shit you couldn't get a small army of professionals that could blow it out of the water.

          Yeah it's got added textures, but it doesn't make it 99% accurate. The thing is when the MCU does "accurate classic outfits" like Loki and Wanda in their tv shows they just phone it in with the cheapest fabrics imaginable bc they already think of it as lame and don't even try, but Spider-Man has the same kind of costume as he was made excellently back in 2002 without needing to make his costume a rubber body armor
