Wonder Woman

[XvGojira]

I just hope that limiting the director to only women doesn't end up hurting the project. Not that there aren't women who couldn't make a great WW movie, but the pool of talent is much smaller. And yes I understand the argument of getting a woman to do this movie to influence studios to allow them more time in the lime light and increase that talent pool and all that. I'm just concerned about WW first big screen outing get hobbled by a progressive PR stunt. There's kind of a lot riding on this movie.

If we had some other big screen Wonder Woman movies in the past, it wouldn't be such a huge deal. But with the social climate the way it is currently EVERY bit of this movie is going to be scrutinized intensely by nearly EVERYONE. And chances are that those who it won't end up pleasing (and I'm sure will be many from various sides of various stances for various over blown reasons) will be outstandingly and annoyingly vocal about it.

I honestly don't care about the gender or sexual identity of the director as long as the end product is good.

My touch-in-cheek knee-jerk sarcastic solution of who to direct and avoid most of this drama? Lana Wachowski.

But in all seriousness, I hope for the best for this movie. I really really want a great film representation of the heroes I grew up watching and playing with the toys of as a kid.

Although as a plan B, hopefully we'll get something Justice League-y on TV with the whole Arrow/Flash/Supergirl/Atom thing going on (didn't they announce they cast Hawkgirl for one of their shows too?).

That sounds less ridiculous than the rumors that she was going to give WW a cat (like lion or tiger) sidekick.

If this is actually in color that'd be cool

It looks okay. I'm not familiar with Wonder Woman to know if there's a villain teased in here, but I hope so. I'm not sure I'm really interested in just a war movie that happens to have a super strong person in it.

Hrmmmm... I think everyone, even naysayers, were looking forward to WW, hoping it'd save the DCEU, and the trailers have all looked great. If this film suffers a similar critical/fan drubbing as last year's two films it's hard to imagine much goodwill left for these films.

‘Wonder Woman’ Flies Onto Tracking With Projected $65M+ Opening, On Par With ‘Thor’ & ‘Captain America’

[canofhumdingers]

I can't wait for this film. It might be my most anticipated film of the summer. All I know about it is what I've seen in the previews and it's striking all kinds of perfect notes for me. It looks very similar to the first Captain America (a good thing) but with the added bonus of a hero raised from birth in a noble warrior society to be the best warrior they've ever produced. I'm a big fan of so many of the various inspirations and elements that are fused together to create this story (classic hero's tales, heroic warrior societies, WW1, ancient Greek/mediterranian culture and legend, etc.). I really hope it's as good as the previews make it look. Wonder Woman was a highlight of BvS (and I say that as one of the seemingly few who actually like that movie) so hopefully she really shines in her own feature!

I'm so out on the DCEU this thing could get rave reviews (which I doubt will happen) and I'd still wait for...I dunno...TNT?

Is the Gal Gadot movie getting a fair shake?
