The Amazing Spiderman (Reboot) Costumes and Wardrobe

[Capa]

Because they're talking about a sweater he wore in TASM 2 that was clearly not in TASM 1? You answered your own question. And congratulations, don't know why you need more than one pair I hope you got use out of them.

On a post with no supposed pics attached in a thread where the TASM1 costume is still adamantly discussed (can't go a few pages without mentions of the vince jacket, slacker backpack, fingerless gloves, etc...)- yeah, no opportunity for misunderstanding at all, especially when identifying the exact make/brand used in the first film...

And yeah, it was agreat find. Quality denim at a great price- Don't know about anyone else, but I like to own more than one pair of denim.

Hi guys. Who have ideas of this sweater?

It's called following discussion. But it's okay, we all make mistakes

I removed the leather patch and then stitched it back on after the whole process.

Also did you open the zippers so the inside would be dyed or did you keep the zippers closed?

We'll have to agree to disagree on this. Barring the fact that pairing navy blue shoes with black jeans is pretty egregious from a design standpoint (and this costume was well designed), especially for a character that wears a lot of black (same black jeans throughout film)...

I can see where the navy idea comes from- in that the black leather reflects the daylight to give off a slight blue sheen in certain pictures (as black leather is oft to do- especially when compared to the matte black of the denim-which I believe is what throws people off)- But none of the set pics or stills (unflitered) ever show them as being anywhere close to as blue as the actual navy dunks. So the most obvious, literal conclusion is that they are navy blue, but taking the above into account, I think it's pretty clear they're black (or perhaps a very dark gray). But to each their own! Perhaps we'll never truly know. Cheers!

Sorry, but I just can't let this go :lol Here's the saturated photo, which is CLEARLY blue.


And comparing the midnight navy to black, there's really just no way that it could be black.

i kept the zippers open..the dye gets in not matter what.

I am really amused we have to even talk about this. Capa- you can clearly see blue in the photo even without saturating it. Not to mention you can screencap the movie itself several times and tell they are midnight navy. I think at this point you've just got a problem with being wrong.

Wow. Look how blue those black jeans look as well. Not odd at all! It's almost as though we're looking at a color distorted photo! Like I said, the most obvious, literal-minded conclusion to jump to is that they are navy for reasons I mentioned in my previous post. If you want to continue believing they're navy, that's cool. Even just comparing those un-edited photos above, it's pretty clear that they are not navy (the black dunks are not lit by daylight, but studio lighting). The navy blue dunks are just too blue to match. But like I said, we're gonna have to agree to disagree because you guys seem to hold pretty tight to "evidence" found in a drastically altered photo.

In the meantime, I'll keep an eye out for those indigo/navy blue made & crafted levi's- because y'know, that's clearly what they are.

Conversely, I'm really amused at the astoundingly inaccurate assesments going on here. Did you even read my full post explaining why they aren't navy? Please post some screencaps of the film showing where they are clearly navy.

If one were to beat these up/distress these and then "super saturate" a photo taken in daylight, in photoshop, I think the results would be similar to the altered photo posted earlier:

Next time I'll make sure to follow the last 7 pages of non-linear "discussion" and keep an eye out for arbitrary, contextless quotes, lest I upset the waiting roman :wacko

Umm okay?



A general tip, if you don't want to "upset" people don't come into a thread that people have been following for 3 years and make a scene of yourself. If you refuse to accept that they're midnight navy which is literally describing it's almost black appearance, that's your problem. But you don't understand color theory. Also, to say that wearing black pants with dark blue shoes doesn't make logical sense is an opinion and you're also talking about a character who runs around with thumb holes ripped into his shirt sleeves.

Anyone know of any cheap alternatives to the Club Monaco besides the Target bag. i think they've discontinued it...

These rucksack style bags are quite popular now. The target bag isn't really a perfect (or really all that great) of a match for the CM bag anyway (It is very gray when the CM is noticeably blue-not quite navy- but still blue). Also, the target bag doesn't appear to be of very high quality- and it's got the leather patch on the wrong side. I'd say go with a similar styled dark navy/brown leather rucksack style bag. Herschel has some quality bags that are very much in keeping with the spirit of the CM one. Hope this helps.

lol. We have an internet "professor" in the house! Please, school me on "color theory" prof :wacko , and how those washed out set pictures taken by a potato somehow prove your point. Remember my post about daylight reflecting off of leather as being deceiving? Clearly not. Here's a more accurate picture representing their true colour:



The basketball pic is fine- though it certainly doesn't prove that they are blue.

Funny you mention three years, since that's about how long I've been here. Take a look at my post history and see some of my contributions. Do try to keep up.

As for your take on Parker's outfit not making "logical sense" (lol), these costumes are designed by professional costumers who know a thing or two about fashion. Peter is dressed very smartly in all the hippest, up-to-date (for 2012) fashions. And for those of you not keeping up, thumbholes in hoodies and long sleeve shirts have long been a "punk" staple (an aesthetic they were clearly going for), and have recently become very popular in mainstream fashion- so don't act like this is some quirky, ridiculous, arbitrary costume choice (ditto his shoes- which would make no sense to be blue since they are paired with black denim throughout the film). Funny, that you clearly have no idea about any of this stuff, yet act as though you are some sort of source.

If you've been on here for three years, then start acting like it. I think at this point your pride has been hurt, which is fine, but when you start condescending others, it becomes a problem. Now your arguments above sound very nonsensical to me, and I am absolutely ITCHING to refute them, but for the sake of the forum I won't pursue this any further. We drop it here, no hard feelings. Now back to your regularly scheduled program. :thumbsup

... My comment on logical sense was referring to YOUR comment that navy shoes wouldn't make sense to be paired with black jeans (which I disagree with). Not my personal views on the costume. And as a matter of fact, I know and have had contact with several costume designers over the years and am studying photography/graphic design. So yes I DO know a little bit about how cameras pick up colors especially how to tell when something that looks black or dark blue is one or the other. I also am many people within my cosplay circuit's go to for screen accurate IDs on store bought clothing worn on TV and in film. You don't know me, so drop the attitude.

At this point you're basically trolling the forums and I am going to join jasonsshin in my agreement to just cease conversation at this point. You go and enjoy your costume if you think they are actually black. They're not, but whatever makes you happy. A cosplayer out on the convention floor or anyone who knows anything about Peter's clothing will tell you the same thing but if everyone else disagrees with you I guess the logical thing to do in your mind is to just refuse to admit you're wrong.

I'll go enjoy my screen accurate costume, including the actual Vince army coat (or do you wanna refute that one too) because your opinions at this point hold very little importance.

 

[denisdenis]

Maybe this jeans?

So far all I've seen from you is essentially "I'm right and you're wrong because I said so." Instead of refuting any of my actual points, you've chosen to espouse your supposed "credentials" on the internet in an effort to prove some sort of superiority (pointless).

As far as attitude goes, you don't know me either, so drop the accusations and ad hominems ("you don't know colour theory")

At this point you're basically trolling the forums and I am going to join jasonsshin in my agreement to just cease conversation at this point.

Oh, I see, I'm trolling now because you disagree with me. Interesting. Classic tactic. Speaking of classic tactics I see you're appealing to the majority as well -"anyone who knows anything about Peter's clothing". More lazy than classic, but whatever. Everyone knows the majority is always right...:facepalm

All I see is you continuously dodging all of my salient points on the matter and needlessly attacking me- and I'm the supposed troll?

I also welcome you to enjoy your costume if you think they're blue- which they're not. Whatever makes you happy.

I'll go enjoy my screen accurate costume, including the actual Vince army coat (or do you wanna refute that one too) because your opinions at this point hold very little importance.

Cheers on your braggadocio and ad hominems mate (I seem to remember someone saying something about dropping an attitude...), as I identified the Vince jacket back in 2011 and have also got one. I am amused by your attempts at what amounts to a pissing contest though.

My pride has been hurt how? I assert that the dunks aren't blue and you come back and tell me that they are. Wow, great argument.

I don't understand how you can call my behaviour condescending, but then, in the very next line tell me that my arguments are nonsense with no follow-up. Hypocritical.

I would actually love to see your irrefutable proof that the dunks are blue and not black (and if not on the forum then why not in PM?). If you don't want to continue the conversation, I understand. Cheers.
