What do you think, could it work? Honestly I'd like to see the classic, but hey that is just me.


Billy Zane is the Phantom!

I may be in the minority but I liked the Billy Zane Phantom movie alot. I still watch it when it comes on. Don't like the new gettup at all.

The huge collar makes him look like he's in bomb disposal!
DDD - 12/10/2009, 7:10 PM
That Scyfy Phantom doesn't look anything like
the real Phantom! Yeah, he does look like a
character they rejected for Mortak Kombat
for being too stupid looking!

Hawks@ you aren't alone I really liked the Billy
Zane Phantom too!
DangerMan - 12/10/2009, 8:05 PM
it looks like a smallville costume
SpiltInk - 12/10/2009, 8:30 PM
OMG, what are they thinking? It reminds me of the heracy in "Comicbook the movie". I am really tired of movie studios thinking they know what the public wants. The Billy Zane Phantom is fantastic, and I absolutely love pulp heroes and this is a travesty.

It would be like putting the Shadow in a halo costume. For petes sake stop this nonsense.

I'm with you guys. I liked the Zane Phantom get up for its purity. It was the real deal, a true comic costume brought to screen. Was it a little hokey, sure, but the movie was set in the 1930's so I think it worked pretty well with the overall flavor of the thing. A modernized version could easily have been made using different materials such as a thicker neoprene material without all the faux armor hoody and crap added to this thing. His head looks friggin' huge with all that stuff on and he has no shoulders... not a very heroic shape. Hell, they could have used a Daredevil film style suit and made it look better than this, and I’m no fan of the Daredevil suit.

But hey, its Syfy they probably had a budget of like $40 bucks to make the thing. But this guy would get laughed at a cosplay convention in that get up.

The PHANTOM... The ghost who stubbles over shit in the dark.
gibbyblaylock - 12/10/2009, 10:46 PM
I saw this, like, a thousand years ago.
gibbyblaylock - 12/11/2009, 12:43 AM
yes
MattyPlant - 12/11/2009, 4:30 AM
Billy Zane FTW
LEEE777 - 12/11/2009, 7:18 AM
ACCESS @ Hey its only a PILOT mini series, hopefully if it goes for a full series will get classic/modern look PHANTOM!!

Check out a huge GREEN LANTER CORPS fan casting in FAN FIC >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>




You wont be sorry!

Maybe.... : D
Talontd - 12/11/2009, 10:59 AM
WTF happened to the SciFi channel??? They are currently destroying their most profitable franchise (STARGATE), and they have no good (unless someone can enlighten me) original properties airing???

That used to be my favorite channel, along with G4. Now it's all Ghost Hunters & infomercials and G4 is nothing but COPS reruns.....since when do nerds and stoners like COPS?!?!


Syfy Channel
----------------------------------------
Ghost Hunters..........................Crap
Ghost Hunters Academy............Crap
Ghost Hunters International.......Crap
Sanctuary................................Crap
Warehouse 13..........................Mediocre
Stargate Universe.....................Mediocre
Alice........................................never seen

......am I missing something???


G4TV
---------------------------------------
Attack of the Show.................Awesome
Cheaters...............................Seems to be all re-runs
Ninja Warrior.........................Seems to be all re-runs
Human Wrecking Balls............Crap
Cops.....................................Crap
Campus P.D..........................never seen


Two networks and barely 2 good shows between the lot of 'em!!! I really hope SyFy steps it up with CAPRICA, and that G4's AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR is good. If not, I don't know how these fools are payin their bills.

Oh yea, please tell me if i'm missing something, I would honestly LOVE to hear that one of them has a property that i'm missing out on.....I LOVE SCIFI/FANTASY!


P.S.- That suit looks like CRAP!!! lol.
ClintEastwood - 12/11/2009, 11:15 AM
The new one just looks stupid.
airbeyonder18 - 12/11/2009, 11:25 AM
I honestly think people are getting desprate. This one will suck in the US but could do well in Austrailia since they seem to be the main core fans for the Phantom.
SkunkApe1 - 12/11/2009, 11:33 AM
F'd up, missed the mark, what were they thinking, who green lighted it, SyFy screwing up a 2 car funeral, etc.

That outfit is the Pontiac Aztec of super hero costumes ! My point being, how can it get that far down the line with out someone saying, "ahhhh.....yeah......maybe not ."

The saddest part is someone got paid for this !

Anyone on this site could have created something better.
TheDemonHunter - 12/11/2009, 11:44 AM
@SkunkApe -- "Anyone on this site could have created something better, even if their eyes had already been gouged out with hot pokers and their organs were being fed on by vultures that had masks of Malkovich's face taped onto them"

Fixed that for you.
HelaGood - 12/11/2009, 11:57 AM
BWAAHHHAAAHAHAHAHA!!! that is so lame!!!!
DeathWalker - 12/11/2009, 11:58 AM
Hey Talontd you forgot 2 shows on G4:
Web Soup: pretty funny
X-Play: Morgan Web......enough said.
DeathWalker - 12/11/2009, 12:04 PM
BTW........looks freakin STUPID!!!!!!!!! ANother screw up for SyFY Channel.......Can anyone say Flash Gordon!!?
LEEE777 - 12/11/2009, 12:05 PM
FLASH GORDON!!!
LEEE777 - 12/11/2009, 12:05 PM
There....

Just said it! : P
DeathWalker - 12/11/2009, 12:10 PM
Oh boy.....LOL Thanks LEEE
slimybug - 12/11/2009, 12:10 PM
Seriously, that looks so ridiculous...
Talontd - 12/11/2009, 12:23 PM
@DEATHWALKER

Thanks! I've only seen WEBSOUP once, but it felt.....i don't wanna say like a re-hash of AOTS......but, like, more of the same WITHOUT hot @ss OLIVIA MUNN.

As for X-PLAY, i'm an AVID gamer, but even saying that i really could care less about the new SAILOR MOON video game review, and MORGAN WEBB is only about 6.5 in my eyes, so not enough to keep me watchin...

I was really hoping someone was gonna say "Dude, your not watching "blah, blah"?!?! CHECK IT OUT!" But I guess these channels really have lost their mojo.
DeathWalker - 12/11/2009, 12:47 PM
@ Talontd

You are right about Syfy channel. I use to watch that channel all the time when Farscape was on ....now not so much.

P.s. Olivia Munn is the future Mrs Deathwalker... :)
Ryden - 12/11/2009, 1:56 PM
inser fart noise :here:

^^ that's how I feel about that suit
Bijous - 12/11/2009, 4:40 PM
WTF? How is that The Phantom?
weapon925 - 12/11/2009, 5:37 PM
looks pretty bad.
contrast - 12/11/2009, 6:06 PM
Looks like a costume of "The Shroud", minus a cape, as designed by the costume department of Smallville.
gtrman - 12/11/2009, 6:11 PM
Haha!!! Hilarious!
TheDemonHunter - 12/11/2009, 6:58 PM
Put a dome inside that giant collar to hide his head the rest of the way and you've got Mysterio.
Spectre94 - 12/11/2009, 7:57 PM
meh
2010warmachine - 12/13/2009, 6:40 PM
Crap!!!
DarkAvengers - 12/22/2009, 9:42 PM
Nerds.
Superman4 - 12/25/2009, 8:26 PM
I like Billy Zanes Phantom costume much better heck I love the entire movie. I'd rather see a series staring him as the Phantom.
comicbookjerk - 12/26/2009, 2:32 PM
Huh? All I see is a pic of Billy zane? theres nothing above him but a line.
MercWitaMouth88 - 1/8/2010, 8:36 PM
Billy Zane wasnt that bad
Thatman12 - 1/15/2010, 11:10 AM
I liked Billy Zane as The Phantom. That movie deserves a lot more credit than it received.
