That an exposed chin on the costume (like in the comics) and a helmet top (like in TFA) wouldn't cause problems with each other.

It doesn't work because those two things together make his chin/jaw look tiny and pathetic. For it to work you'd either need an actor with a cartoonishly large chin/jaw, or a tight-fitting mask instead of a helmet (like Batfleck).

Covering the ears was also a mistake, because you need something to break up that head/neck shape.

He barely wore the helmet in the movie though... because reasons.

Believe it or not, they're not all about function over form.

Stupid outfits are iconic, honestly they should have them clad in kevlar based flexible, breathable clothing (which I'm sure exists but I don't know about), Tony's main battle suit should be or at least plated in vibranium.

Think, NBA players (probably the most overall athletic imo) generally wear a lot of compression gear to help out their performance (whether it works or not), so the normal human heroes should be similarly clad.

The superhuman heroes can obviously dick around and not bother for the most part, but iirc cap can still be shot and murdered, mark ruffalo can be killed pre-hulkamania, and they should have something to do about that.

Now I don't know what hulk would wear desu, it only matters when he's mark ruffalo.

It's this new thing, often referred to as "CGI" (Computer generated imageing for the lay person) when they can alter movies and create special effect using using "computers" (Think of it like a magic box that can do complex technology things.)

I don't think you realise how hard it is to get Vibranium

they thought they used the entire world's supply of it just making Cap's shield - the Wakandans hid a lot of it though

Also Tony's battle suits are constantly changing and being upgraded - even if Wakanda gave him full access he'd deplete it in like a year

Cap is the tank and all the other soldiers are the DPS

so it makes sense that Cap is bright blue and red and white, that way he can tank all the damage and use his shield to not die, thus stopping a lot of rounds that would otherwise go into all the other soldiers

>>69039543
then how does he have more chance of getting adamantium?
>>
>>69039247
>>69039372

No it isn't.

Adamantium is the strongest metal
Vibranium is able to absorb energy

think of it like - Adamantium is the unstoppable force, but Vibranium is the immovable object
>>
>>69039668
no anon you are mistaken

Hercules, the demigod of Greek myth, wielded an enchanted golden mace, which (according to legend) was made of Adamantine and supposed to be indestructible. Inspired by this myth, Dr. Myron MacLain sought to create an indestructible alloy for the American side during World War II. At one point he fell asleep at his lab bench, and the metals he was working with somehow bonded together. This mysterious alloy--a combination of steel, Vibranium, and an unknown catalyst--created a material stronger than any yet known. However, without knowing the exact ingredients and their proportions, MacLain could never duplicate the process. The sample was worked into a disc, which became Captain America's Shield. MacLain's later attempts to duplicate the material included a formula without Vibranium, which resulted in the creation of True Adamantium, which is almost as strong as Captain America's shield.[6][7]Hercules, the demigod of Greek myth, wielded an enchanted golden mace, which (according to legend) was made of Adamantine and supposed to be indestructible.

Wheadon turned him into a 40's caricature. Cap would never say that shit
