The comics Green Goblin would wear a more life-life mask/costume. That would be pretty difficult to pull off in live action. The more metallic costume was a great design choice. It was a little over the top, without looking totally crazy.

I also thought of the Green Goblin as being similar to the Joker. There has been a number of darker takes on the Joker without his costume being distracting. Make-up instead of a mask would help, but then you couldn't keep it a secret that he was Norman Osborn. Or just go with the Green Arrow hood thing that apparently is as convincing as glasses for a disguise.
