When watching the Flash movie yesterday, the bit where Barry was talking to Iris and he says “I have no further comments” my brother whispered to me, “Ezra Miller talking to the press.”

Am I the only one who would think the perfect flash suit would be the Reverse Flash suit from Season 8 recolored. It looked amazing on Grant.

If Season 4’s suit had a golden boot upgrade, it’d be the definitive perfect live action Flash suit. I don’t mind Season 6/9’s suit but imo when super hero suits are too comic accurate, they don’t look as well, ESPECIALLY for Eobard Thawne. I like a nice blend of comic adaptation and what said character would wear irl. …Not to mention it’s implied multiple times that the Season 4 suit IS Flash’s perfected suit worn by Future Flash until Season 5 introduced that abomination.

I actually really like the JL suit not just because I'm a fan of armor suits but also because the added layers balances out with with the cowl which gives makes it proportionate and gives it a good silhouette.

The Justice League Flash suit gets a lot of hate but I like it for it’s practicality. He is a poor, incredibly intelligent young man so he used pieces of space tech that could take the heat of re entry so it could hopefully withstand the friction created from his speed. Doesn’t look the best but has the best “reasoning”.

I’ve always had a soft spot for the Justice League suit. To me, it does a great job with the armoured look. It’s still sleek, the black sections work very nicely, the wires give the feeling that this suit goes through a lot of force and needs to be secured and overall just has a solid design. Imagine the road rash this suit can save you from when you’re running Mach 10 and trip over something (which JL Flash did a lot)

Say what one will about the CWs writing, when it came to the costume design (for the most part) was on point, they created multiple good prototype Flash suits that would get upgraded later on, they created what to me is the best Reverse Flash look in season 1 with the extra black just adding so much to the overall color scheme, and they created a new Zoom suit that fits their version of Zolomon absolutely incredibly and is my favorite suit of the show, definitely elevated the series while watching it to see such cool suits.

the ZSJL suit is a great adaptation of the flash suit into the real world in my opinion, those wires and shoulder padding's are completely necessary because it tells you that barry is still experimenting on making the suit and still new to this super hero stuff, those wires control the lightning by some MOVIE MAGIC aswell, either way its my opinion

I almost forgot the season 5 suit even existed, now it feels so wierd to look at it for more than 3 seconds

Season 4 suit is the best! Doesn't look too cartoony and makes Grant look swole 😂

The DCEU JL suit was my favourite because it added practicality and realism to the suits design which the other suits did not.

I've always thought that the s5 cowl existed solely for the Elseworlds crossover. The lack of chinstrap was more striking when it was oliver wearing the suit cause of his beard. I think it was entirely intentional and the decision was made for that and that alone.

I agree. I absolutely HATE when people say "It's good because it looks bad on purpose so it makes sense!". Like, no. That doesn't change the fact that the outfit sucks😂. Also, I agree with all of these picks except for one. I'd swap your number 2 and 3 bc the lack of golden boots really does take the season 6 suit down quite a lot for me personally.

Probably an unpopular opinion, but the DCEU armor flash suit is hands-down, my favorite

The season 4 suit is my absolute favorite because it incorporates both the bright comic red of the flash and the old s1-2 suit which makes it so amazing. Like you said, it’s busy, but not too crowded that it hurts your eyes.

My favorite cowl is actually the one from the first 7 episodes of season 1. An Oscar winning costume designer made it. Too bad it was so uncomfortable

The ezra suit was ment to be something he cobbled together himself. But that said the first Ezra suit is my favorite out of all the suits.

Grant gustin is the real OG Flash

Is tragic that the quality of the writing seems to take a backseat while the costumes kept evolving, and kept getting better. Why couldn't we have both? Oh, right I know why. Eric Wallace.

I don't see how the justice league suit loses the flash identity because it's an armor desig. That's like saying any batman suit that's armor loses the character's identity. The suit has everything the comic suit has besides the yellow boots. In a way it's more comic accurate than most of the cw suits since it's a brighter red, it has the gold around the waist and arms, and has wings on the mask instead of lighting bolts. Also like the pre new 52 suit, it doesn't have a chinstrap and a gold outline around the symbol.

The New Flash movie suit is definitely one of my favorite Flash suits of all time! But it's also tied with the S9 suit.

Season 4 suit was my favorite, from the all gold ears and lines on the suit to all different shades of red that all compliment each other. It was perfect

S4 suit is still the best for the arrowverse and it's original darker tone, way better than spandex

The Best Flash Suits are the Last One of the Series and Season 4 and the Worst Ones are the First Live Action Suits(minus 1990 which is Overrated) and Season 5,My Favorite Speedster Suits are the 2 Reverse Flash Suits,Zoom,and the Rival.

For me the Season 8/9 suit was perfect. It was the perfect showcase of transferring a superhero suit from Comic to Live Action. (On a separate note, Tom’s RF suit would have been perfect if it was exactly like Grants but reverse colours. Instead they made weird changes and put the zipper on the front?)

Ezra’s main suit in The Flash, Johns original Flash tv suit and Johns Jay Garrick suit are my favourites. They look so good, doesn’t look like cheap cosplay🔥

John Wesley Shipp has the best flash suit by farr!! (Edit)(The updated suit)

Excellent video! My opinions were already more or less the same but by the end I completely agree. Very comprehensive and spot on.

I agree with everything except the last few. CW s4 suit is perfect in my eyes, and the s6-9 suit(s) looks to awkward to me. Probably mostly cuz i just never really liked the skintight look for live action stuff. Also the armored DCEU suit kinda grew on me a little, I kinda like it more than the Flash movie suit, but that decision changes all the time, so eh.

The S5 suit looked so good on Grant without the mask/cowl on ffs

Kinda wish you would make a video ranking ALL the suits, like Jay's, Wally's, and Savitar's

I’d love a live action version of the Wally West rebirth

6:29 damn i feel like im the only one who thinks it is probably the nicest flash suit ever adapted next to the flash season 4 suit

Just wanted to add one bit of information you got wrong In 1990 John Wesley Shipp suit did not have any padding he was that fucking ripped.... It's only his suit and the flash CW shows that now has the muscle padding because he is 30 years older and not in the same physical shape

Can’t wait to see Janes Gunn adapt the flash in the DCU. Idk when he’ll do it, but can’t wait to see it

Absolutely perfect analysis on this very important topic

This is pretty accurate ngl. My favorite flash suit though s9 flash suit is fire. For me its the season 4 suit

I still think the jl suit was very good it's like the Spiderman suit in no way home it's not perfectly "cannon" like in the end but it fits and no way in hell looks bad the exposed fingers are really something I don't mind infact for that suit I thinks it's the best choice. and your reasons are kind of why I love that suit specially for a dark theme it's made for

In my opinion season 4 suit was the best one

JL suit is much like an armor and more practical for daily hero stuff. He is fast but still can be shot for example while standing so an extra protection is a nice touch.

I'd love to see more costume ranking videos!

They should of recreated the design details of the season 4 suit onto the final one.

Something minor you forgot to mention about the season 6-9 flash suit is the new wing ear pieces which are very welcomed and fit the whole suit perfectly.

In my Opinion, The s4 suit never got beaten it was perfect peak. But yes The new adaptation of the suit was great too

13:27 lmao this is a genuinely funny sequence with the commentary in the background

AS MUCH as I’ll ALWAYS say Ezra was the WRONG choice to play Barry and OVER TIME I’ve gotten used to his suit and can find things I actually do appreciate what they were going for BUT, the funny thing is that the first Ezra Miller suit actually looks GOOD when Ezra is just standing around and or in actual motion, unlike Miller’s movie suit where the ENTIRE suit looks completely cgi the entire movie where the first suit looks REAL the ENTIRE time every time Ezra would wear that suit, which sucks because DC posted REAL suits for this movie but Barry’s suit in real life looks NOTHING like that dog shit Sharkboy and Lavagirl cgi suit that was in the actual movie (Also I’m kinda sick of them making Barry on the younger side they already did that with Grant, is it so hard to ask for an COMIC ACCURATE Barry Allen? Where he’s been working for the CCPD as a CSI for YEARS and who’s been the flash for a few years so an actual EXPERIENCED Flash with idk again is it so hard to ask for an actor with BLONDE hair? Like really WB/ DC tf y’all doing over there??

I kinda wished they used reverse flash season 8 suit but with the colors switched as a little updated suit for Barry

I actually rather like the zip being visible in the season 4 suit, definitely the best imo

In my opinion the suit in the flash movie is the best by far and the idea the lines in his suit glowing up when he is using his powers is awesome. The only reason it looks weird in some shots it's because of the bad cgi

Honestly, the JL suit is my favorite simply because I love armored designs. It’s very sleek for being armor, and I think it’s much nicer looking than the boxy naked-looking Flash movie suit.

Ngl for some reason I love the young Barry suit from the flash movie

Season 5 suit with season 9 cowl and boots would perfect

I think Season 4 suit, with season 8 wings and golden boots would be PERFECT

Perfect suit would be the season 4 design (texture patterns, shades of red, lightning designs) with the season 8 fabrics and gold boots

An rf version of the 2023 flash suit would be sick 🔥

THANK YOU!!! S8-9 IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECTION !!!

Movies and Tv shows want to protray super hero/villian movies accurately to the source material but I think that is where they should be careful. As a fan of super hero/villian movies, I like the story being similar to the comice but not entirely shot for shot. This is also for the suits, the suits need to be made from material that can be achieved from the environment of the character. This is why the spiderman suits from Tobey Miguire and Andrew Garfield look amazing, their suits have their own personality and likeness. Some don't like Tom Hollands suit as it is very skin tight like the comics with no depth, yes it has emoting eye pieces but they don't sell the whole thing. Comic accurate suits are terrible for "live action", it is not practical or look great. The characters are overly shredded or buff with skin tight fabric in the comics which is quite unachievable for a person doing a movie or show that has limited time and ability. Suits in the Flash seasons 5 to 9 suits are not great. Sure they are comic accurate but they don't feel 'live action" or practical, in real life who would actually wear spandex to fight crime? An example of suits that look good are the Superman and Batman suits in Zack Synder's movies, they are not comic accurate with the material or design shown by the lack of underwear on the outside and skin tight spandex. Yet the suits are nice because they contains general information everyone knows. Superman: S on chest, colors being red blue and gold. Batman: black or grey suit with bat symbol on chest, and pointy ears. The flash's aspect is red suit with lightning bolt on chest, ears, waist, and shoes. Having these easily seen characteristics will help the viewer like the suit, making it comic accurate with the material and design lacks the characteristics of a "live action" movie. Back to the Flash: In seasons 5 to 9, the suit being spandex or whatever material is comic accurate to the skin tight suits of the comics but don't look as great as the season 1 to 4 suits. The leather suits were nice, the unhidden zipper showed its aspect of being a "live action" protroyal as it shows how the person will interact with the suit to put on or remove. Also the defining features of the CW was the leather suits as shown in the Arrow, the change of material and design was too much. It lost its creativity, rememberaility, and practically of the suits.Overall, making a comic accurate suit is not worth it as there should be a difference between the two media, colors don't work with the writing or production, and inconsistent.

I actually like the JL Flash suit With the armor plating and all

for me the perfect suits are : 15 Legends of Super Heroes 14 Justice League of America 13 The Flash (1990) 12 Flash S5A 11 Flash S5B 10 Flash Earth 90 9 Flash 2 from the movie 8 Flash S6-8 7 Flash S9 6 Flash Ezra Miller 1 Movie 5 Flash Ezra Miller Justice League 4 Flash S1A 3 Flash S1B 2 Flash S2-3 1 Flash S4

If they gave Ezra millers a solid gold lightning belt and got rid of the fake abs I would have had a hard time telling which one was my favorite

nah bro s4's suit is the best cant change my mind

In my opinion the suit in the flash movie is the best by far

Will you do a ranking of live action villain speedster costumes?

My great uncle actually did the initial design for the John wesley shipp flash suit. He showed me the sketch he gave to wb so it’s always gonna be one of my favorite flash suits of all time😂

15: JSA Pilot Flash Suit 14: Legend of the Superheroes Flash Suit 13: Flash Season 5 Suit 12: Movie Flash/Batman Suit 11: 1990/Earth 90 Suit 10: Flash Season 1 Prototype Suit 9: Flash Season 1A Suit 8: Flash Season 1 Suit 7: Flash Movie Suit 6: Flash Season 2/3 Suit 5: Justice League Movie Flash Suit 4: Flash Season 4 Suit 3: Flash Season 6/7 Suit 2: Flash Season 8/9 Suit 1: Savitar Suit

Im ready for a flash animated series at this point

I actually prefer the season 1 A cowl over the season 1 B cowl but that's just me. The mouth piece stopping at the same part the eyes do just looks wrong for me.

Trust me, back in the 70s, we weren't too impressed with the Legends of the Superheroes' Flash costume either. Though, showing our age and the times, most of us really liked GL and Solomon Grundy. Even Hawkman....kinda.

Agreed with number 1. Looks like it was ripped right out of the comics. Love the more fabric look for it, and the fact that there are no fake muscles. Not to mention the flawless cowl connection to the suit. And the gold boots are so good to see in live action finally.

The muscles on the 90s suit give it that comic book vibe, and John Wesley ship was fucking MASSIVE

I prefer the older CW suits compared to the new ones, which look like The Twizzler more than The Flash.

I actually kinda liked the batsuit, it made flash look like an absolute tank.

You have to laugh at the fact we got the best suit in the season with probably the lowest amount of flash screen time, if you don't laugh you have to cry.

love the Flash CW season 4 suit!

The best flash suit is season 4 it’s amazing in every way always looks good and was a much needed upgrade just wish it got more screen time

if the s4 suit had brighter red and golden boots it wouldve been perfect

I dont really dislike the armored ezra suit in concept. It would make sense that a kid who just discovered he can run faster than most people can conceive would want to wear armor to protect himself, i just think that in practice it doesnt look very good. And thats not to say armored speedsters cant look awesome. Look at savitar, his armor is rad. Even more than looks though, i wish that a speecster wearing armor would adjust their fighting style appropriately. Like instead of punching and kicking at super speed wearing armor opens up the possibility of slamming into them with your whole body which would be way more effective than a punch but might not be good to use against regular people

The number 5 is perfect suit💯

So, no Knightmare Flash then?

NGL i think the season 2-3 suit is the better then any version of flash either comic animations or live action. it is the ultimate suit for me

I feel like The justice league flash suit is not supposed to be really good because he says he’s only had powers for a few months

This was pretty good how about you keep the momentum going and do the animated suits? (Specifically movies and shows)

the S3 and S4 suits are honestly my favorite ones. I just never liked the S5-S9 ones because the suits made Barry look fatter.

In general Injustice 1 Flash and Jay Garrick’s Flash (Alex Ross version) costumes are my favorite ones. But a live action costume it’s the season 1 Flash from CW.

Kinda weird the arguments you give to the JL suit (which is supposed to be a prototype suit) and don't give to the s1-s3 suit that have the same "problems" you pointed out.

I grew up with the 1990 flash TV series. Its one of my favorites. ⚡️

What movie is this 1:14 ?

Season 4 suit looks the best no cap

I know this is an unpopular opinion, but the new Flash suit from the movie is the best suit from any live action iteration

Get the season 4 suit, add the gold boots 🔥🔥🔥

Ngl my favorite costume that Grant wore was the Reverse-Flash suit in the Armageddon era, it looked to well executed, if only it was recolored…we wouldn’t have been robbed of a potential “perfect” live-action flash suit

Season 4 suit superiority

I kinda like the Justice League Mortal Suit...

Do you think you’ll re-rank all the CW dc show villains now that flash is over? Including shows like Superman and Lois, and Gotham Knights

The season five flash suit is my favorite

Best suit season 8/9 suit

I think the S4 suit is perfect besides not having gold boots. I also think S6-9 suit is overrated. It looks cheap IMO. 1. S4 2. The Flash Movie 3. ZSJL 4. S2 5. S1 6. S8-9

Savitar and all of Grant Gustin (except Season 5) suits are my favorites!

i would’ve just had alternate barry wearing the 2017 JL suit.

I see some other reasons that the recycled bat suit got as low as it is. If the boots were spray painted entirely yellow instead of being red and having yellow lightning bolts, and if he made his own cowl, it would look better. They could've used the Justice League suit for Barry 2 instead of a Bat suit entirely and it would've worked.
