I suspect that if you scratched the producers and writers of this show, you'd come up with more than a few comic-book fans. Honestly, had I been the guy doing the X-films, this is more of the route I would have taken --- more emphasis on characters and less attention on costumes. I loved the first two X-Men films, but honestly, there were times that the get-ups made me giggle. What works in a comic-book doesn't always work onscreen.

Mark S. Wrote:X-2 was a great movie, but when I was sitting in the theatre and Wolverine showed up, I think half the audience giggled at his hair. Just little absurdities like that. Magneto's helmet was another one.
Spidey is the same way. His costume you can excuse, 'cause he started off as a pro-wrestler, and that circus thrives on the absurd. But Green Goblin looked like he flew in off an episode of Might Morphin' Power Rangers.
