I could do without the giant WONDER, but I like everything else.

why is she kneeling (not that i'm really bothered by it) and not doing the wonder woman power pose?

Yes wonder.

Wonder whether or not this will be a good movie.

This would have had a bigger impact if it took place before BvS.

Feels weird to go back in time knowing the impact she will have already made on the present.


Has there ever been a solo or origin movie where the superhero dies?

I really worry about any PG-13 comic book movie that has dark over tones being able to live up to anything now that Logan has set the bar for what the action should be in a Dark story.

Going forward, this is going to really hurt DC since most of their story lines attempt to be dark. But instead of going up against something like Logan, they're going up against the Avengers type movies which do a great job of balancing goofiness with action. They feel like a PG-13 movie attempting to be more like a R than a R movie attempting to tone down to be PG-13 (where most DC movies fall). In my opinion, the audience expectations change depending on those two points of view, and to pull off a R that feels toned down you have to have amazing stories and performances (aka Dark Knight).

So I am really worried about Wonder Woman, because I really want this movie to be good!

If DC were smart they would have released that poster with Wonder at the bottom on 3/7, then the same poster the next day 3/8 (International Women's Day) with Woman on the bottom.

Press 1 to vote Linda Carter indicating you're a hetero male or lesbian.

Press 2 to vote for Gina Corano indicationsling you are a gay male, a lesbian, or a trucker mullet lesbian.

meh.

I am interested in it only because of it being set in an earlier time period.

never was much of a DC fan, just Marvel.

But I will see this one.

I will give it this.. it does look pretty.

I waver on this. This trailer was good. The last one that was all slomo bullet-time action was pretty bad.

I agree that the time period is maybe the most compelling thing.

The only way I'm watching this is if she fights B*tch Hunter.

Looks really good. This is just as I imagined Wonder Woman to be based on the tone from the comics.

As a big fan of 30 Rock, I have to chime in and say that I'm incredibly amused and pleased that a clip from 30 Rock was immediately followed by a comment from username "Shut It Down".

From the trailer this definitely has potential, but if we know anything it's that DC puts out some great trailers followed by pretty mediocre films.

I also wonder if Chris Pine is going to steal the show in this one, as he tends to do.

looked decent when there was minimal talking, then the end came in with a lame attempt at humor.

Well, its definitely the most promising trailer yet. But I still cringe at Gadot's wooden line deliveries. She might be good at the action stuff but she's less impressive at actual acting. And I'd be willing to bet they made all the Amazons (or whatever they are) fake those accents simply because Gadot has one that she isn't able to mask. Otherwise you'd wonder why she speaks differently than they do.

Wonder Woman needs to be in 36D.

It actually feels more authentic to me. Diana is not American or English. To have it as a second language with a very regional accent works for me.

Agree, but Suicide Squad had a good trailer too.

After all their other bombs, DC is definitely in "assumed to be horrible until proven otherwise" territory.

I agree with Sapper, the world is coming to an end.

She's supposed to be wooden. That is, she's literally supposed to be a "Fish out of Water" character who has no understanding of modern civilization, social norms, or language. She comes from an extremely militaristic culture with extremely rigid hierarchies of leadership yet you think she wouldn't be wooden? If anything she's probably underselling what Diana would be like in the real world.

However, Wonder Woman doesn't remain this way for long. She's every bit as intelligent as Batman and Superman and learns the ways of the world quickly. I hope she does show change as the DCU continues.

I think there's a difference between wooden acting and stoic or naive characterization. We'll find out in 2.5 months which one applies to Gadot.

Personally, I've been pretty skeptic on her so far. I've only seen her in Fast 5, 6 and BvS, but none of them really require much acting. If she can carry a solo film remains to be seen. Maybe she'll crush it!

Haha, thats fantastic. You're actually using the logic that Wonder Woman is a stoic character who's foreign to our world in an attempt to excuse the actress's poor acting abilities, and then acting like I'm the one being obtuse!

I didnt say Wonder Woman was wooden, I said the actress is wooden in her acting abilities. And if you think she's purposely acting that way for this character, well, I guess I'll just leave you to enjoy the fine acting and writing in Suicide Squad and BvS, lol.

In this case it's fine though, it actually isn't that bad for the character. If it was a character that required more range, such as Aquaman or Flash, then it wouldn't work as well.

I see lots of robot roles in Gadot's future where she'll crush it.
