First, i just wanted to say im so happy i finally joined this forum. none of my friends ever want to talk about this stuff, so finally i have a place to express my opinions on these subjects! Anyway, on this issue...
there are a lot if things about both suits i like better than the other. i was exposed to the raimi movies before the comics, so i was used to seeing raised silver webbing, which i thought looked awesome. I think the webbing on the new suit is much better. i like that it looks like it is dug into the suit rather than put on top of it, even though i never liked black at all on spidey. i still think that raimi made the right choice to use silver webbing IF he was going with the raised webbing. I honestly would like to see the webbing on TASM suit be blue. Its very subtle and i think it would look great.
One of the things i cant stand is the webbing pattern on TASM suit. the raimi suit had a very clear web pattern. this new suit has a web patter that just makes no sense. by his stomach it just turns into some wierd line pattern. I hate how it is half on the shoes, and half on the gloves. The webbing on the mask looks great.
I liked raimi's eyes better. I honestly dont like the thick black outline around spidey's eyes in the comic, i dont like them yellow like webb has done. i think tobeys suit had perfect eyes.
webb by FAR has better materials, and colors. the red and blue is so bold, and much better looking then raimi's dull blue.
i hated how the spider symbol on tobeys suit just looked plopped on top of the webbing. to me, having the symbol not integrate with the webbing just looks weird. It always seems like the webbing and the symbol are competing with each other on top of the red. I also like how TASM has the same logo on the front and back.
I loved how the raimi suit had a LOT of red on the front and arms. Thats just my preference that i like most of spideys front half to be red. I actually would love if the red didnt shrink as it went down, if it was just a red front, with blue sides. i HATE how the webb suit has blue arms with a red stripe as opposed to red arms with a blue under (that made no sense)
i cant stand the "cut" (if that makes sense) of the new suit. i think they tried to make it look messier and less clean cut like the raimi suit, so that it was acutally believable that peter made it, but it just came out looking more complex and intricate. i dont mind the blue on the gloves, or the leg stripes (as much) but i cant stand the lack of a belt, the boots having half webbing, the lack of red on the arms and torso.
the webb materials, colors, webbing type (not design) and logo on the raimi suit outline with the raimi eyes would be ideal for me. my ideal suit would also have red on the back, so that the blue was just on sides, and under half of the arms. I would also love if the belt was just straight, and didnt point down (reminds me of superman underwear)

well i think that was a pretty good first post!
