I think the after version of the suit looks just fine, although I do like spandex myself better than this shiny type of material. I think it looks good on the woman. What I particularly LIKE about the female lead is that she is not some supermodel skinny body type of woman; she's just a normal looking, normal bodied female. I think that is very realistic and also worthy of respect from Collazo and Co. Just like Ralph wasn't some tall, heavy muscled hero type, but just an average type male, they chose an average type female for their webisodes. That is admirable and consistent with TGAH. Mona In my opinion only, I respectfully disagree the group deserves a lot of kudos on the issue of casting a "normal looking, normal bodied female," because, based on that phrase, the first Morgan cast (Erin White - Kimmy McKinley is the second) was more along the lines of what would be considered model skinny and model pretty. First is badboy's link to the profiles when she was still in it, the second is the MySpace that is listed on the link: Her MySpace: www.myspace.com/erinwhiteofficialPlus, even Mary Ellen Stuart as Holly IMHO wasn't supermodel skinny - she was athletic and trim, so she could be considered normal by our standards. Then again, what can be considered normal by our standards - every one, every place of industry has a different standard of a normal human - this includes looks. But, I will digress from here because it's not part of this thread. I personally agree with Mortimer in his comments about this suit. Can't really add on to them more without irking some - mostly because I've said them already.

I agree that the suit looks bad overall, especially on the actress; but I agree with Mona that at least she is not some supermodel in a suit to get ratings that way.

I guess I just disagree on the "normal body, normal looking" thing because there are so many different versions of normal. All three actresses are normal body shapes IMHO - none were skin and bones or really a supermodel type (i.e. real tall and thin). But, either way, guess we'll have to wait and see on July 4 as far as "ratings."

Not, something totally OT - how can you have 13 votes, but only 12 voters... who's stuffing the ballot box again?

Someone might have deleted themselves so they do not show as a member even though their vote might be recognized.

You know, looking at the one Katt wore in the TV Land Awards - it wasn't as bad as I thought it could've been. The shoes were the funniest part of it though. I did like the fact they did at least put on detail in there - the belt. Missed the grey trim around the waist and red trim on the cape though.

I'd say we should just be glad to get him back into ANY suit at all! I could deal with the lack of detail for such an event. Probably never happen again in our lifetime!

It seems he's come to appreciate what Ralph did for his career. Personally, I think it was better for his career to play Ralph than if he had gotten Luke Skywalker. Have no doubt - based on Mark Hamill's portrayal of Luke - that Katt could've done it, but still think Ralph was the better role he landed. And, I shouldn't nitpick - I get that all the time when I slightly bend wire a weird way in jewelry, even if the entire project looks good.

Did I miss the memo? Who's Morgan Hathaway?
And of course I didn't choose the "moth-eaten" one. I'm sure the green guys can defend against moths by their stage of technological development.

True... figured I'd add a joke one in there as well as the "Oh no, not another silly poll" to mix it up a bit. Well, that and we had about 5 new polls in two weeks when I added this one. Then again - it does pose a question if the suit also had a self-cleaning feature as well. Would've been great for Thermoman in "My Hero" - he had marmite on his superhero costume and had to wash it and almost missed stopping an asteroid from hitting a town (did manage to get there in time - and was allergic to the detergent, for a funny result. )

I always figured the suit was self-cleaning... After all those crashes the grass stains, dirt and smudges seemed to disappear between camera angles.

Funny you guys brought this up. One of the scripts for the original series had Ralph grabbing the suit out of his closet and ripping off the plastic bag from the cleaners. Shame that never made film....lol.

Makes you wonder too how the cleaners reacted to the suit being brought in for a dry cleaning - and if it was same day cleaners or not.

Wonder if that should be a story challenge - write a drabble/short story where the suit has to be washed and what one would do to wash the suit. That case though - no "self cleaning suit" function would be allowed.

Hi guys I'm kinda new here but I figured this might be the best place to post this. I have fond memories of the original show and I figured, in keeping with the movie trends we've seen in movie designs I figured this is the direction they might go. You can find more art by my here if you're so inclined. Thanks, Manny
