Carbon Costume Posts by Tom
Cliff Huxtable
One name is synonymous with ugly sweater: Cosby. On the Cosby Show, Cliff Huxtable (Bill Cosby) immortalized the ugly sweater, taking it beyond anything we’ve seen before or since. The nice thing about these crazy patterns is that no one would ever notice if you got Jell-O pudding on them.
Crocodile Dundee
Paul Hogan is Crocodile Dundee, an Australian bushman who takes a trip to New York City. While he knows his way around snakes, crocodiles, and water buffalo, the Big Apple is quite another story.
Larry David
Larry David is star of Curb Your Enthusiasm and co-creator of Seinfeld. He likes to dress for comfort as he makes you cringe in discomfort by throwing all social norms out the window.
V for Vendetta
In V for Vendetta, an activist going by the name V starts a violent campaign to bring down a totalitarian government and free the people to rule for themselves. The mask he wears of the real-life Guy Fawkes has been adopted, in turn, by the real-life Anonymous and the Occupy movements.
Sam Flynn from Tron: Legacy
In Tron: Legacy, Samuel Flynn (Garrett Hedlund) is the primary shareholder of ENCOM. When his father, Kevin Flynn, goes missing, he enters the grid and suits up.
Quorra from Tron: Legacy
In Tron: Legacy, Quorra (Olivia Wilde) is an “isomorphic algorithm” in the grid. She has it all: she’s skilled in the martial arts, enjoys the writings of Jules Verne, and has triple-stranded DNA.
Alonzo Harris
In Training Day, Detective Alonzo Harris (Denzel Washington) helps the bright-eyed Jake Hoyt (Ethan Hawke) learn the ropes on his first day as LAPD. But this isn’t your typical HR orientation, and what Alonzo puts him through definitely ain’t OSHA approved.
Batman
Batman (Christian Bale, Michael Keaton, or Adam West, depending on your age) is the secret identity assumed by billionaire playboy Bruce Wayne, driven by the murder of his parents. For this costume, we recommend you upgrade the mask, gloves, boots, and cape — basically everything except the chest and belt.
