Lannisters don't act like fools!
Kill yourself
Can't you read?
>what movie?
Looks like some obscure arthouse shit.
yes the file name says there's a gladiator in the picture you epic retards
seems too high budget to be obscure unless the armor is historical and it was borrowed
God you truly are braindead, click the fucking Google button.

Karl Urban always gets to wear cool armour.
Based and tastepilled
No, it’s literally not
>wearing armor that provides no actual protection
This is your brain on capeshit, folks.
I always hated these helmets and how so many civilizations copied them
It's capeshit, Thor doesn't have to wear anything at all.
Early GoT had great costume design
Different but kino
Costume designer got eaten by a lion
then why wear it?
Oh yeah you're right, clearly
is better because its layered in shit.
Because of the fans who care about comicshit.
BRING THE BOAR EXTENDER!
BASED
he thicc
Is there any reason why literally every major character in GoT favors a two handed sword vs. a one-handed sword and a shield?
I think I’d prefer Boromir’s rig
Shields are for pussies
Looks like between 1527 and 1540 somebody invented the Breastplate Stretcher
Kino
It bothered me that hardly anyone uses a shield. And the only time someone does they just get bashed over and over again.
I can post all the armor from LotR, all kino
such an ugly armour, pic related did good
Does plot armour count?
fur collars are kino by default
>only male cast member to wear chest armor because he was a lazy DYEL
And you posted some of the worst.
>le lorica segmentata meme
That gotta hurt
got any uh dat witch king?
First pic is literally a metal tutu
Technically Andy did too, so its not like its out of character.
He did a good enough job even though he never got swole imo
just the first one though because it had some UMPF
the helmets were terrible though
>he had to sell that beautiful armor after his divorce.
If you're famous why get married bros? I don't get it.
Not everyone hates women
I see you, user.
I was going to post that but I posted Thor in stead. I'm glad someone else here has taste.
Still the best musketeers movie
You can still have sex and not get married despite what your mistress tells you soiboi
Tried a bit too hard with the b8 m8
Ken watanabe you fucking mong. Or b8
Nope, just looks like he can't even work out how to wear a shirt
Shields are pretty much useless with decent armour. Though given the writers forgot that they backslid into the dark ages around s3, more should have had them.
If you wear a shirt the crowd can't see your wounds.
I bet you wear a shirt in the pool.
I wear your mum on my cock. She's a slag and she loves it.
I guess you would just wind up with a broken arm unless it was a lucky block of an arrow or if you just used it to turn a spear.
Although in LOTR it made more sense because all the little orcs weren’t really strong and just had curved swords
To waste dubs on gay Japanese shit
samurai/european armor is pure kino god bless masamune
Stand aside, armourlets.
it protects his chest and stomach
This really was the one moment Triton looked like he knew what he was doing.
came here to post this but it's actually the 2nd reply
kek
What were the carabineers for and what is holding them in place? Also, just make the motion of pulling that knife out of its set sheath and tell me it's not retarded, no matter how you grip it
iv always had a thing for the necromonger armors, specifically the alternate ones like vaako and the lord marshal wear. that three faced thing is the shit
Thats cause
A) He derives his protection from his godly powers
B) This is a fucking gladiator match, all the armor was just for show
Does my adamantium-hardened dick count as armor?
Armets are the helmet choice of men with true taste.
Did these ornamented guys ever see combat? seems like a waste for some poor guy to send months carving that shit only for it to get dented into the wearer's skull by a hammer
king crimson roman edition
I love this helmet so much
FUCKING GLADIATOR YOU FUCK
what is the right hand used for?
tfw you find out they originally wanted Arnie to play Tigris of Gaul but couldn't get him
They likely never saw combat or even field use. They'd almost certainly be reserved for parade and if they were worn in the field the wearer would have a basically zero chance of ever seeing actual fighting.
Engravings give you no tactical advantage whatsoever
>what is the right hand used for?
He's holding his helmet, you fucking idiot.
Who's hoarding all this armor from movies? For example, where is all that stuff from LOTR movies? There was a lot of armor and other things.
People inherently notice things. Engravings give a tiny, nigh-negligible distraction to the enemy and a tiny nigh-negligible morale boost to allies
Most of it gets trashed, some of it goes in museums and some is stolen and sold as memorabilia
I am an absolute brainlet, thought it was some weird lobster gauntlet
I know it's retarded but it looks cool. I'm not a fan of the knife placement either but if you brought your hands up to a boxing stance you could draw the knife while winding up for a thrust. Again, it's retarded, and it's a hard angle for how high it is, but I can see the logic if there is any beyond looking cool.
I got nothing on the carabiners. If he tried any sort of fast roping or rappelling with them the vest would ride up.
kek
>armor
LOTR was chainmail kino
>Most of it gets trashed
But why?
Protecting intellectual property, if you let others use it then you lose exclusivity and with it claims for royalties or compensation if others use it or copy your design
if they don't need armor why don't they just fight naked? why not be a nudist?
Armor is for whimps
It's distracting having your dick and/or titties flopping around in combat.
This is retarded, it’s like saying nobody ever actually drives expensive cars. Parade armor was an entirely different thing that wasn’t designated for parade by how it looked but by how heavy it was.
That was some pretty fancy swordplay though, you're pretty good.
hnnng
Remember when Hitler drove his porsche into Stalingrad and did donuts to raise troop morale?
Shields are so genuinely affective that they make fighting boring to watch.
In the books most of them use a shield. Gregor not only wears full plate but also carries a shield bigger and heavier then an adult man.
>This is retarded, it’s like saying nobody ever actually drives expensive cars.
It's more like saying nobody never drives expensive cars to their job site to haul gravel, which is true. Someone who could afford armor like that would be so high status they wouldn't be fighting anywhere near the front lines anyway. Un-ornimented plate armor was already so expensive that it was basically reserved for nobility or later professional soldiers/mercenaries. Adding hundreds of hours of painstaking engraving onto it would put it into the realm of only being afforded by kings and extremely wealthy noblemen, neither of which would actually be fighting in melee combat and instead commanding whole armies from the rear.
they did it in ancient times somehow, plenty of africans do it today
Already been done
The mail could be better but otherwise it's an excellent set.
Too bad the script treats armor in GoT like it's made out of the same materials as the costumes
Colosseum Brawler
In fairness, later seasons practically had them wearing cardboard.
GODS what a stupid costume design.
didn´t the robocop tv show also use them?
Sven Ole Thorsen was pretty much the next best thing though, hes a big pal of arnold and hes been in almost all his movies.
The left dog saw some shit.
YOU’RE OVER CHUCK
the glow of the armor made the movie so much more fantastical
they did an amazing job with lighting and cinematography considering how little budget the had
How do you even kill these guys when every inch of their body is protected by metal?
Swing the sword at their helmets and hope that it gets knocked off?
Perro de guerra
You use a warhammer
I'm guessing a heavy axe or hammer. Even if you don't cleave their armor you'll probably break their bones
Blunt weapons
>1540
jesus he was a big guy
>a hammer
>knock them on the ground and stab the gaps
>run a lance trough them
>have them chase you to get them tired then do one of the above
>gank them
or the best option
capture them alive and randsome them for some easy fucking dosk
would have loved to see his version of the hobbit
Blunt force trauma (warhammer for example), or you stab them in the eyeslits/neck/armpit with a knife or sword or anything sharp. They had daggers specifically for this purpose (misericorde).
1) Hit him with something heavy
2) Stab him in a slit
3) wrestle him to the ground, then hit with with something heavy/stab him in a slit
4) Hit them with so many arrows that they stop being able to get up despite none actually penetrating
5) Fight in a muddy battlefield and just drown them
chlorine gas or cannon fire
Kriegpilled
You use a knightly weapon like a poleaxe.
A common weakpoint were the armpits.
how are you even supposed to see anything with that helmet?
Crossbows? That's what Stronghold told me.
so bad it's good
>make them fall to the ground
>their armor is heavy as fuck
>they can't get up
>proceed however you like
what´s wrong with the mail?
too big gabs?
throw rocks at him and run away if he gets to close until he collapses from exhaustion
ah yes the manliest movie almost as manly as Master and Commander... tell me, fellow man, how rare do you cook your steaks?
>you know realize that the fedora-wearing chivalrous "supreme gentleman" has given way to the "spiritual wild-man", and it's the exact same people wearing the costume
>triples
this is some powerful bait right here
cowardly post
The patrician's choice
Somebody doesn't know how armour works.
Yea it looks cheap and weak.
shoot them with a gun
>it's cowardly to kill the coward in full armor by any means necessary
The fact that Africans are still doing it should be evidence enough that it is a bad idea. Africans don't use the rear sights properly on their AK's. Does that mean we should stop using red dots and LPVO's?

*BTFO everyone ITT*
And a drone or APC would BTFO a guy with an FAL. What is your point?
Hell, another guy with an FAL could BTFO a guy with an FAL.
Step aside virgins. This is a real mans armor.
Swords are piercing weapons. You don't swing it; you're meant to thrust it through something. Weakly made armor can be pierced by a sword. If that doesn't work, a blunt weapon can be used to cave in an opponent in the chest or on the head. You can also go for the weak points where the armor cannot cover so a person can move around enough to fight.
>beats everything
nothin personnel kid
There's a slit at the top of the visor, you can't see it from the lower perspective.
Can a Katana pierce through a medieval knight armor?
the yamato in 5 is overdesigned trash
in 3 and 4 it was simple and elegant
No, which is why Japs bought a shit ton of plate armor from the Portuguese along with guns
TIM?
No.
It couldn't cut through dark age armour.
5Yamato is actually the best looking sword in the whole DMC series
Maybe in gaming
Maybe even in fucking culture
Exactly, I was trying to take baby steps in escalation. This is an armor thread so none of that is relevant.
VVV
sasuga nanbanjin!
They're single-edged cutting swords. They're not designed for thrusting. Armor is meant to not be penetrated. If a katana could pierce it, then they wouldn't bother wearing it.
its overdesigned trash
The props in that movie were great.
Nigga a Katana can't pierce through indigenous Japanese armor either. They "bought" very few of those from the Nanban because of their resistance to firearms compared to the indigenous Tosei Gusoku. After they bought very few of these, they started making most of them themselves, the same as firearms.
What is "Dark Age" armor?
Henry was a sissy then he hit the wall
thats a big katana
False, that's garbage.

Like butter.
well he surely is less
>[autistic screeching]
There wasn't a single good helmet in the series.
The armor seen in Excalibur looks a little silly in retrospect but I'll be damned if it doesn't look a thousand times better than what you see in fantasy stuff these days.
using a warhammer, mace or flail
if you're using a long sword simply turn it around and use the pummel that's what it is there for
heavy hits against that helmet and the person inside is having a nightmare
keep in mind he cannot see that much in that thing
it's literally just good if you have a competition where everyone wears it (jousting for example) or to trample on farmers that don't have proper weapons
what I don't get is those leather trench-coat things they wear underneath the armor
it looks so odd
doesnt look silly why do you think it's silly
it's very bulky but the connection pieces on picards armor for example are on point and it's nice to see attention to detail
Running Man
It's mostly the sheer amount of spikes and studs you see everywhere.
the wow movie had good armor.
good in the sense that it was accurate to its source materiel at least.
the whole movie is kino desu
and the source material is shit so you shouldn't even have posted it
Lamellar*
Chronicles of Riddick.
Based retard
>*BTFO everyone ITT*
except this guy ->
Kino, should have been Jon's armor at some point if GoT was good
Fashion has always been a factor in armor there has never been a point in history where people didn't care what they looked like.
Also since those are armor for guards I can imagine the coat tails serve a similar purpose to a normal coats. These guys are supposed to stand guard in sunshine and rain.
Like a big armoured cuddly teddy bear.
What happened to that armour?
He was a big guy but they got a small guy to play him in The Tudors.
these guys in Expanse
I think were just supposed to assume he didn't want to wear it again because of bad memories.
im really sad we didnt see euron valyrian steel full plate
I was thinking that because I couldn't remember seeing it after his wife dies
Funnily enough one of my teachers from university was a costume designer that helped make this costume (I think in the late 80's) and she still goes on about it today how it was one of the most recycled costumes for over 20 years... I think she must still be getting money or some shit for it because she would actually mention it like once a fortnight at least.
That a a polehammer bro. But ye both work
the knife placement is actually really good. because the only times you'd ever have to pull it out fast are times that you're off your feet with your hands near your neck and head for protection. for example, make the motion you'd make if someone was trying to strangle you from behind with a rope; your right hand is right there. if you're just pulling it out to open a cardboard box from amazon, it doesn't matter if it's a little slower.
also, the carabiners are magnetic, (and thus don't rattle when he moves) and carabiners are always fucking useful. he probably does fast ropes with them and who knows what.
>(I think in the late 80's)
No dude, Starship Troopers was its origin
Armour is for nerds.
the hound's helmet is neat
What material are those red dragon heads supposed to be made out of? They look far more like plastic than leather.
bitch you can swim in armor.
Ruined their armor in season 2, that season 1 throw together spraypainted bmx gear looks leagues better.
Honestly laughed out loud at this post. Thank you, I don't think I've cracked a smile in almost three weeks.
Mad Martigan and Kael have pure kino armour.
agreed
Might be woven grey yarn. They use that a lot in costumes.
That metal, you can tell when its yarn because it looks like... well yarn.
Generally your only supposed to give that to extras, but with how hd tvs are theses days you should give it to noone, just cg in the extras.
I love how mundane he looks despite being a king. Since that's how he'd really look
problem child 2
Nothing will beat this, for me atleast.
Might be wrong but wasn’t that stuff still around in places in S2 onwards alongside that power armour? I’m sure I saw some after S1
ok that's it, ive had this movie in my watchlist for a long time, but now im gonna watch it
Thank you for this post
you're a fool sora..

based on a real roman parade helmet
Most likely a gambeson that they are wearing
They only got lamer after the first movie
that's different, they had to avoid overheating due to the climate. the shield would hopefully protect the arms and upper legs, meanwhile their heads and vitals were protected. it's a pretty good system.
the armor looks amazing but I don't understand why the characters have such small chestplates.
nanomachines, son
vorenus is so aesthetic
The Cuckold
looks cool but it's not armor
just how fat is he planning to get?
