It would be amazing if they go with a blue and grey suit for the next Battinson film. I seen an edited photo of it and it would look amazing IMO
Somehow, I just don’t think opting for blue over black and including gold trim around the bat insignia and other armoured pieces would be consistent with the internal logic of the extra gritty, grounded world and realistic portrayal of the character as being extremely prepared, practical and one who utilises shadow and darkness to move about stealthily.
So far, the suit is primarily constructed around functionality so we’ll see what comes of it if this Batman implements some more theatrical or ostentatious elements.
For suit 2.0, I might just expect taller ears on the cowl to show he’s leaning further into the symbolism of the bat, perhaps a sculpted scowl/frown design for the added intimidation when up-close with a recipient of imminent vengeance, the gauntlet blades, and a larger, more defined Bat emblem- no longer using the reworked gun that killed his parents model. Branding, baby.
That bat-symbol was the embodiment of taking his own victimhood and turning it into a weapon to dish out violent vengeance on anyone who may seek to cause harm to others. I feel like his arc in the first film taught him that vengeance is not a noble path and angrily demolishing random dudes in the street is not the right way to tackle Gotham’s underworld.
I’m sure (I hope) he’ll still be using excessive violence in the future but he’ll be operating more strategically to target the key players and corrupt systems running Gotham instead of just abusing street level thugs who are themselves victims of the environment that reared them.
