The Flash Side-by-Side Video Of Grant Gustin & Ezra Miller Proves A Superhero Costume Trend Needs To End

:0:0

Summary

The Flash TV show and movie both have a flaw in their costumes - the use of CGI cowls - as highlighted in a side-by-side video comparison.
The reason for using CGI on the cowls is to make it easier for the actors and to demonstrate the evolution and upgrades of superhero costumes over time.
However, if the CGI doesn't look good, it can make the suit appear jarring instead of iconic or symbolic, undermining the story reason behind it.

The Flash TV show and The Flash movie's respective costumes for Grant Gustin and Ezra Miller get a major flaw highlighted in a new DC side-by-side video. 2023 became the biggest year for The Flash's entire live-action history, due to both the DCEU and the Arrowverse. As The Flash series finished its run in May, the DCEU movie arrived in theaters only a month after, bringing the DCEU Barry Allen to his first solo film closely after the Arrowverse Flash finished his nearly 9-year-long show.
Even after their run as the Scarlet Speedster has come to a conclusion, Gustin and Miller's respective versions of The Flash continue to be compared to one another. While they have a lot of differences, Heroes Unbound shared a side-by-side video that shows that their suits have a shared flaw: the usage of CGI cowls.
Despite the fact that both Gustin and Miller wore physical cowls as the iconic DC speedster, there were numerous times in the TV show and the movie where CGI was applied to remove or put on their respective disguises. In Gustin's case, the CGI cowl came into play at the start of The Flash season 7, but his upgrade was never explained to the audience, leaving it one of The Flash season 7's many unanswered questions.
