Movie Style Guy: Buckle Up

Posted by Robert Fure (robert@filmschoolrejects.com) on May 8, 2008

There’s nothing I love more than declaring my love of comics and film. Except maybe declaring that love while also drawing attention to my crotch. With that in mind, how can you possibly go wrong with an awesome comic or movie inspired belt buckle? Hint: You can’t.

With an increasing amount of comics being translated into movies, many of your favorite properties and heroes are coming your way and just jonesing to hold up your pants. There are classic and obvious choices like Batman and Superman and contemporary choices like Speed Racer and Transformers.

For me, you can’t go wrong with having a little bit of an attitude and a touch of evil. You want to send the right impression, right? Lock it up with a sweet Punisher skull or a COBRA buckle and you’re on your way to winning the hearts of fangirls everywhere.

So with a bevy of cool flicks hitting this summer, why not nerd out just a little bit and strap on a piece of your favorite character? And if you start to feel just a touch too nerdy, pull your shirt over the buckle. Done and done! But I say wear it proudly. Just don’t take it too far and wear the entire costume to Outback Steakhouse.

And if someone from the business side of things is listening, I want a Deadpool belt buckle, damn it!
