I am of two minds about the Diamondback costume. In terms of accuracy, minus the helmet, it is a very good take on old-school comic version. But, at the same time, it looks ridiculous in a modern live-action adaptation. I mean earlier in the series, they had Luke briefly wear his classic comic look, and even the character himself remarked in the show that he looked stupid. So, even the writers knew that those older looks did not really work, yet still chose to go that route with Diamondback.

Honorable Mentions that are mentioned honorably because I don't know if they actually count: Galactus in FF2: Silver Surfer (cloud instead of the big purple planet eater we all know and love) and Peter Sarsgaard's Hector Hammond from Green Lantern 2011 (really just had a labcoat on - not a costume per se - but did have the giant melon makeup head.
I think some of us would've mentioned Juggernaut if we hadn't exorcised the memory of X3 from our minds and memories. If Juggernaut was in a movie now though, I think he would be better looking than that 2006 pos, at least to some degree, but you know, Fox generally has to take their baby steps when it comes to progressing & improving in areas...
They gave young Magneto a better looking red helmet than the one in the first trilogy, so I don't see why they wouldn't do better with Juggernaut similarly...
Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
They were... Better example, imo at least would be Psylocke in Apocalypse who looked spot on costume and appearance wise, or at least as close as we're probably gonna get unless you prefer the one in X3.
The makeup seems to be the X films' stronger suit as pointed out, even though Nightcrawler in Apoc was kind of a step down from X2 Kurt in that regard sadly. Apoc's makeup was for the most part decent but his costume and shape was what was more off/different. As hated as that Apoc is by some, I don't think he deserves mention here like Juggernaut, the last F4's Dr Doom, and some of them others do. *shudder*
