No.952109
Hopefully, since this being kept as in-house as possible by WB, they'll actually focus on superhero antics instead of trying to appeal to the Supernatural crowd with bait on the CW.
The Robin costume looks good. I wonder if they'll swap him to Nightwing for the 2nd season for character development. Only complaints are the lack of colour, which could be due to the lighting on his face, but Hawk has the same, so I guess it's a dark-ish red. Looks worn out with scuffs on it, too.
The Dove outfit looks awful and would have been fine had they toned down the goggles. Shocked that they attached a fairly attractive HWYTE girl to it. Her underarmour looks like they smuggled out one of the Supergirl outfits from the CW and added some silver highlights.
Hawk looks better than Dove, though again, lots of scuff marks which I never like. It's actually fairly bright, as is Dove's so some colour is nice. I do like that his helmet is clearly very solid, which means he won't be taking it off in the middle of every fucking fight scene to talk to the bad guy like a certain Speedster. Hopefully they keep that for all characters, as I prefer superheroes changing their persona/attitude when the mask comes down, and going into a sort of auto-pilot without as much talking and feelings.
Alan Ritchson was Aquaman in Smallville, so maybe he'll make it fun.
So who else is cast?
We've got black Starfire. That can only end well.
Pedobait Raven. Literally just a black cape and acting very mature for her age!!
Half-Asian Beast Boy. Actor is actually a martial artist, but that's not of much use if he turns into animals. Wonder how often he'll just be a human to save money. Also, he actually looks a fair bit like Beast Boy from Young Justice, so maybe they'll stick some green makeup on him.
And Hawk and Dove are only recurring, which means they appear halfway through the season or appear an minor antags that join the Titans by the end after stopping their unorthodox methods of vigilantism. They're older than the rest of the cast by a decade, so they might also be some shitty mentor fill in instead of the Justice League.

For Batman it kinda looks realistic since those are supposed to be Kevlar plates with enough flexibility among them to move around. If anything is weirder that Batman's mask isn't bulky enough and is skull tight.
Nite Owl's is overdesigned but isn't sharp or bulky as for the rest of the industry, is easier to design, draw and produce if it's geometric and streamlined and doesn't give the appearance of a zentai instead looking more like an armor.
At least those are the reasons I can think on top of my head.

I think they're alright, since the classic superhero tights don't really translate well to film.
I actually prefer this Nite Owl costume to the one in the book because the mask actually covers his face, and I guess it makes sense that he's going for this slightly armored look since in the book, he's picturing himself as some sort of Arthurian knight.
I think the Nolan batsuit is fine as well. It's a bit overdesigned, but there's nothing wrong with the general idea of having it be several moving parts. It also feels like a natural evolution of the BB batsuit, which was a lot more subdued. Pic related.
