    Sandra Bullock is too old. Normally, I’d prefer and older actor in a role, but let’s face it: the studio will want somebody they can be making sequels with for 6-10 years, and by that time I think Sandra would be over 50. (Word has it that Marvel is stepping up IM productions because Downey Jr. is ‘looking his age.’) They’ll go with a lesser known (probably waify! grr!) actress who’s about 25 or so.

    That is, if they ever make it. I don’t think they ever will. The Flash just got a movie deal. If they were going to do it, they would have announced it by now.

    Lynda Carter’s daughter is fine, by the way. Looks like her momma.

    I don’t know of anything she’s actually acted in, but how about Jennifer Hale, unparalleled Voice Actress?

    Among other roles, she’s the voice of a female Shepard of Mass Effect, so I know she’d sound perfect.

    Charlese Theron was insanely hot as Aeon Flux. I think she would make a perfect amazon Wonder Woman

    Theron is already too old for the role, just like Sandra Bullock.

    At this rate, Ashley Greene is a better candidate. She should be around thirty if a movie ever gets off ground. :silly:

    I don’t like either suggestion, Hewitt or Carano. I want some one who can act to be Wonder Woman. :huh: :unsure:

    I kinda like Sandra Bullock for it. She’s kinda thin, but I’m sure she would buff up some, like Hillary Swank did for “Million Dollar Baby”.

    Implying Sandra Bullock can act. Her face have five ‘modes’ and that’s it.

    She can act a damn sight better than any female bodybuilder or athlete you could name, ever could. She also looks a heck of a lot better than any of the 20-something actress that are currently on movie hot lists. Most all of them are anorexic scarecrows these days. Or worse, they look like a pencil with 2 balloons wrapped around the top.

    I 2nd, 3rd or 4th that JLH should NOT be WW at all. Unfortunately I am very pessimistic about the ability to pull off a WW movie that I would be satisfied with. I guess I have been spoiled with the DC animated versions from from JL, JLU and the animated movie. That being said, I have mentioned this in another thread but my pic would be Amanda Latona. IDK if she has ever acted but she was a performer and part of a traveling musical group. Other musicians/performers have transitioned so I don’t think its beyond the realm of possiblity. What is, in my eyes, is Hollywood’s ability to cast someone who has the body of an Amazon. There have been ‘powerful’ women that have been cast in movies and in tv but rarely do that have the body that can portray that power. The only major movie that I can recall was Blade Trinity where Jessica Biel looked awesome and ripped. Here is my proof for the AL vote. enjoy.

    ps-the only downside for me is that she once dated a backstreetboy, but nobody is perfect B) .

    Now I think this is a director I can get behind as long as he has the ability to cast people who can depict his vision

    I’m not sure how he would express that on film. Obviously she’s stronger than any man. If they were expecting a crossover with Superman that’s not going to work.

    One of these days I’ll have to work on a story where the superheroes are spread out through the 20th century so they won’t clash with each other. It would be something like this:

    1. Superman exists in the early 20th century. He dies in the 1950’s in a final battle against Lex Luthor. Lois Lane soon dies in a plane crash over South America. Jimmy Olson is blacklisted for alleged ties with the Communists.

    2. Batman starts his carreer in the late 60’s. Most of his villains are a result of Gotham’s unique industrial and pharmaceutical industries. Experimental drugs help create the deranged villains like the Joker, Catwoman, Egghead, & the Riddler. It takes years before Gotham is cleaned up to meet environmental protection standards. A huge class action suit shuts down most of its factories.

    3. Wonder Woman makes a brief appearance in the late 1970’s. She works with the IADC. She studies the modern world to see if its ready for Themysica to open up its borders. Her mission ends after four years. Steve Trevor will later die in the Oklahoma Bombing.

    4. Barry Allen becomes the Flash in the early 1990’s. He teams up with vigilantes the Green Arrow and the Black Canary.

    5. Helena Wayne, daughter of Batman and Catwoman, becomes the Huntress
    in the mid-1990’s. She teams up with Oracle, formerly Batgirl.

    6. Wonder Woman returns in the start of the 21st century.

    Yours is an interesting concept. Although given his vision I don’t think it needs to be done in that manner. I mean Nolan has expressed that he does not want to do a crossover for his Batman movies and that is fine. I think a crossover concept is cool and I don’t think that this guys concept of the Amazons are incompatible with the current continuum when it comes to the overall strength of WW and the Amazons. The Amazons can be stronger than any ‘man’ and the caveat to that would be no superhero-man. WW is stronger than some Superheroes but not all and likewise the Amazons would be stronger than the average mortal man but not necessarily all men, augmented or otherwise. If an Amazon were to encounter a gang of thugs I can see her being stronger. But if the same Amazon were to encounter Bane, I don’t think she would necessarily be stronger. Therefore we could have the Amazons who are more powerful than any man and still be compatible with the ‘power’ rankings of the DC universe. My own nerd-esque observation, :).
