Batman: Every Main Live-Action Movie Suit Ranked

12. Batman And Robin (1949)

Starting off with the worst of the bunch, there are not many positive things to say about the suit Robert Lowery donned in Batman and Robin.

One of the moderately redemptive qualities about Lowery's costume is that the coloring of the suit looks like it matches the tone found in the early comic book releases. The suit as a whole actually resembles the comic imagery quite closely. Unfortunately, the early comics don't easily lend themselves to film, and it just made the Dark Knight look silly.

Even though the 1949 film adaptation didn't have much to go on, there are a lot of things this costume did poorly. For starters, the ears look more like devil horns than bat ears. On top of that, the Caped Crusader's belt appears to merely be a clothing accessory and not a functional holder of gadgets. Worst of all, the suit is ill-fitting and provides no protection for Bruce Wayne as he fights crime. It is almost a complete disaster from top to bottom.

This take on the character is largely forgotten, and it's not hard to see why.
