It’s clearly earth one inspired but I still don’t get why adaptations love to take inspiration from “alternate earth comic #1” “What if scenario” “animated show” And never “The comics everyone loves”

@BatmanRouges "I don't get why they don't just adapt it 100% instead of making something new and interesting" comics fans are a cancer on the rest of media omfg

@BatmanRouges So they can do the least amount of research possible

@BatmanRouges Earth one becoming the scapegoat for this visual blunder is heartbreaking 💔

@BatmanRouges @ThomasThorbur11 As others mentioned it’s often cause alternate realities are easier to follow, have less retcons or drastic changes to stuff and such Like if you ask someone if The Amazing Spider-Man or the two Ultimate Spider-Man runs is easier to follow, they’d all say Ultimate

@BatmanRouges Because a lot of times, the alternate comics and What Ifs and Animated Series are easier to get into. Why do you think every Spider-Man adaptation since 2000 has used Ultimate Spider-Man as inspiration?

@BatmanRouges alternate scenarios tend to be more self contained, in the same way that adaptations are.

@BatmanRouges Precisely it would be an easy win if it’s just a classic suit but tbf some people are starting to like it after seeing the edit

@BatmanRouges Because it is WAY EASIER to adapt elsewords and what if scenarios, and it's always the less interesantig details they choose from these stories. Earth one per example has some cool concepts that hardly will be adapated

@BatmanRouges Like doing this wouldn't be so bad if we had already gotten a good adaption of gl, but...

@BatmanRouges I’m so tired of people making shit with AI and then running with it like it’s real. We don’t even know if that’s his suit.

@BatmanRouges Because those stories create new foundational arcs for these characters, “recreating” their origin story in essence, and adding new things along the way. Writers who are creating new canon like to borrow from those foundational elements and seek them out as source material.

@BatmanRouges Because those products have usually already done the effort to make it work in modern day, so they can do the least amount of work as possible. "We'll use the Ultimate universe because that was already updated for the modern day, it's easier" type shit.

@BatmanRouges @doomedMarine666 replied to ai 💔

@BatmanRouges Also, just because there is logic to explain why the suit looks the way it does still doesn't mean it looks good. In my opinion the suit looks like doo doo water.

@BatmanRouges Because it’s not scripture and they’re artists. They want to be creative and make something which is optimized to appeal to their own personal sense of taste, exaggerating the elements they like and minimizing or reframing the ones they want to use differently. Something new.

@BatmanRouges His earth one suit doesn't even look like that. Why are we bringing earth one into this? 😭

@BatmanRouges Animated shows are, in fact, often much more popular than the comics, so it often makes sense to use them as a baseline.

@BatmanRouges Not sure why you snuck animated show in there, DC had quite a few simple and classic designs in the early 00s.

@BatmanRouges Again White Man a washed up loser.

@BatmanRouges To paraphrase @YahtzeeCroshaw “Don’t remaster a game that was already good, remaster a game that had potential, but didn’t utilise it to it’s fullest potential.” Same concept here.

@BatmanRouges This is green lantern earth one

@BatmanRouges The comics everyone PRETENDS to love

@BatmanRouges Its james gun trying to be different

@BatmanRouges Vro earth one isnt anything like this 💔💔💔

@BatmanRouges Looks like the grey lantern what is this

@BatmanRouges Earth One rocks btw

@BatmanRouges I'm still cautiously holding out that the show will be good and there are explanations for stuff like this, but yeah. I really wish more comic-based stuff was based on the actual comic it's supposed to be based on.

@BatmanRouges Lower budget

@BatmanRouges I mean, I don't think anyone would be mad if they took inspiration from the excellent Green Lantern animated series.

@BatmanRouges Because if you use the designs of the comics, the design gets held to the standard higher than the comics, so it's easier to just say "it's based on the comics, but not the comic design you're used to"

@BatmanRouges Cómics are legit the only médium where people question u for wanting faithful adaptations, God forbids a Book or manga adaptation that doesn’t adapt perfectly scene by scene.

@BatmanRouges @ZeroFeminine god forbid we start somewhere interesting, maybe the suit being in disrepair and neglected is part of the story

@BatmanRouges Its not even close to Earth One.

@BatmanRouges Colombia. lol why are you people so stupid?
