no it was not lazy. it was what the director wanted. movies go to pre production and the directors decides what he wants. Singer was a grounded guy who felt colorful costumes will look too goofy for his films so he chose not to. if he wanted , the studio would have given him colorful uniform.
and that is the point you keep missing, since you cant accept reality. xmen was never meant to where costumes so I can compare them with cosplayers. x-men was suppose to look like soldier army or swat teams. and if you notice in the real world they all were black with some leather.
costumes are for toy ads..period.
The outfits were generic looking. At least with Batman Begins he was building a suit from scratch.
What was Xavier excuse? He has a leather fetish?
NAH.....still not true. there is nothing wrong with leather. why is it a fetish? leather is also one of the most expensive dresses. leather is good. many swat teams and police officers were them.. but feel free to insult men that serve their country because you are mad that xmen movies did not do the colourful costume gag that is meant for kids only.
also you know batman is worse right? reason why nolan wrote he had mental issues for dressing like a bat. that is a worse insult . if nolan had his way, batman wont wear costumes for the same reasons he ignored some fans when they complained catwoman had no tail and did not have cats as pets. he had no choice for batman unlike xmen were singer could play around it. batman dressed like a bat. so that had to be there. xmen dont dress up like any animal/ bats or spiders so singer was not obligated.
and like I said, this is not about costumes. the two series that dissed costumed ended up with the most intellectual and well taken serious comic films ever made. the lesson of this thread...stop obsessing about costumes. costumes dont give you intellectual comic films like xmen 1 or batman begins.
I cant remember what xavier wore most of the time. it was not what I was looking at but I remember xavier in very compelling and powerful scenes like this.
thanks but colorful costumes are not needed to make this scene better when it cant even be. the drama and emotional depth is what makes this film.
