Superhero movies are normally a mess of spandex, but man, Shazam! came through. Sweaters in every scene, hats, fingerless gloves, headbands...

Thank you, Shazam! Not the hero we deserve, but the hero we need.

6/7

”Put on a happy face”?

More like “put on a sweater.”

I’m just joking.  Arthur/Joker/Joaquin wears a sweater in the very first scene.  He actually wears sweaters pretty often, when he’s not shirtless or in a clown outfit. 

4/7.

Mediocre. Just a handful of itchy poly-blend school uniform sweaters. I think Miles' roommate had a knit hat on at one point, but overall a disappointment.

3/7.

If you were expecting generic cgi fabrics, THINK AGAIN.

At least three sweaters, knit pixel by pixel, show up on screen. Violet rocks a button-down, and Evelyn Deavor shows up in a chunky knit in her first scene.

Nobody was making them put knitting in their movie.

PIXAR WENT THERE.

THEY WENT THERE.

Next time, there should be more.

4/7.

Knits are pretty thin on the ground, but Dr. Pym wears a sweater vest the entire time, so at least there’s that.

2/7.

Sweater vests abound! Cash wears them quite often (before becoming a power caller).

But the real revelation here? The SHIRT that had a chunky knit PRINTED ON IT like a pattern. We get a close up to admire it. It totally counts.

5/7.

So the kidnappers in this were pretty terrible kidnappers.

But damn did they have some nice knit ski masks, and they did us all the courtesy of clothing their kidnappee(?), J. Paul Getty III, in a nice long knit cardigan.

Starts out strong with a VERY bold patterned sweater and a knit lilac capelet for the dying aunt, who, by the way, also has a crocheted blanket.

Oh yes and there are cardigans in almost every scene.

AND actual knitting in one scene.

Peak knitwear.
