Avengers: Age of Ultron - Thoughts on Quicksilver's "Look"

Avengers: Age of Ultron - Thoughts on Quicksilver's "Look"

With set photos from Avengers AOU, featuring Quicksilver, flooding this site, I thought I've give my opinion on the looks of Quicksilver.

Two clarifications before I start; I'm a fanboy of Marvel studios so any negative critisim doesn't mean I'm a DC, Fox, or Sony fanboy looking to bash the film(I am a DC, Fox, and Sony fanboy aswell though).  I'm not the Marvel fanboy that praises everything Marvel does.


Fans everywhere are either excited or dissapointed at this point at our first look at Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Quicksilver.  Where do I stand?  Close to the excited side, with some dissapointment mixed in.  With that being said, I think I will be eating those words by the time or before the film comes out.

The positives:

1.  White hair.

2.  More design on his suit.

3.  The suit physically fits him well.

The negative:

1.  Hair is too long.

2.  His beard (probably)confirmes his hair is dyed and not naturally white, in the film.

3.  Upper half of the suit is too light.

4.  The concept art looks better.



Reasons my negatives may be shoved down my throat later:

1.  Until we see something final, we do not know how much better they can make his look.

2.  We don't know how early in the film this scene is, but if it's is early in the film, he can always get a hair cut and shave.

3.  We don't know how many suits he may have, so as far as we all know this is his prototype suit and his final will be darker.

4.  The film may be leading up to a final look which resembles the concept art.


In conclusion, I am impressed as of right now, but I have to admit, from what we are seeing, there can be improvements.  I also would like fans to keep in mind that these are set photos, so there is hope for more improvement.
