Perhaps he should make a short film to express what he’s talking about. Special effects will play heavily in convincing people.
June 17, 2010 at 6:53 pm #93254MimiParticipantAs much as I would love to see this materialize, sadly, I don’t believe it. This article is nothing more than a wish list, that’s it. Sorry boys, but your erections will have to be aimed in some other direction for the time being… 😉 J/K!!!
Believe me, I’m would be just as aroused, but this isn’t much. I’m honestly surprised the kids over at Superhero Hype even went with this considering how little was really said beyond this guy’s hopes. It must have been a slow news day…
Believe me, we’ll see Fall of Gotham’s Wonder Woman LONG before anything from Hollywood.

I’m counting on it!
June 18, 2010 at 12:14 pm #93268musclelover2002ParticipantI think you have proverbially nailed it Mimi. I think the only way a ‘true’ WW film will be done, and by that I mean to our satisfaction, will be on the fan film front. For a WW to be truly great for me they would need to find a woman who can physically impose but also who is feminine and can act. Possible? yes. Plausible? I am not so sure. Also Hwood has to think of marketability. I think our desires are in the minority when it comes to how WW should look when compared to the general public. There may be a writer, director and producer that may feel the same way as us, but it is ‘the powers that be’ that will decide the direction. And when money is involved, mass marketability is what counts. So I am content with my animated movies for now.
I hope that FoG can deliver.
ps- One of us needs to win a huge lottery and make this film, our way, lol.June 18, 2010 at 11:27 pm #93275TC2ParticipantI would have volunteered to win this so-called lottery 😉 Alas, I’m not a big Wonder Woman fan and I don’t think I would do the movie justice. Even after seeing the awesome animated one she’s just not that interesting in my opinion. Good luck to whoever DOES win the lottery and makes it happen. 🙂
November 17, 2010 at 11:34 am #97113HolidayParticipantA few additions I wanted to my timeline idea. (See above)
1930’s : Before Superman arrived in Metropolis, the city was under peril from Intergang. The criminals were notorious for disposing of their victims by throwing them off tall buildings. So the Man of Steel quickly became famous by always catching them. Intergang’s attempts to beat Superman proved futile, even when they attempted to throw multiple victims from various buildings around the city. Shortly, the superhero tracked down every member of the group and put them behind bars.
1990’s: Hal Jordan was a hotshot pilot whose antics eventually got him kicked out of the airforce. During a crazy stunt in the Swiss Alps his jet accidentally cut the wires of a mountain cable car. Several tourists in the cable car plunged to their death. Hal was not convicted by a Swiss court, but was soon discharged from the service. He soon found work as a test pilot.

I do like the retro 80’s vibe.

We ain’t gonna get an overtly muscular portrayal of Diana/WW – or of She-Hulk, for that matter.
Twenty-five yrs ago, it might have been another story – the media-entertainment climate was different then.
These days, preference-wise, I’d rather watch the DC Direct to DVD animated movies,
they don’t seem to be so uptight about having relatively buffed-looking female(s) in them.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=000aP84lPy8

~ Mark Twain / Samuel Clemens (1907)December 14, 2019 at 9:55 pm #146111TC2Participant25 years ago? I don’t think that’s true at all.
When they were shopping around for a She-Hulk pilot, they used Bridgette Nielsen just because she was tall. She didn’t have muscle, all she had was height.
Linda Carter was the first live-action Wonder Woman portrayal and she had zero muscle as well.
The only muscular depictions of women I can remember in movies and TV shows back then was She-hulk in the 90’s, because the 80’s version also had zero muscle.
Rachel Mclish in Iron Eagle.
Cory Everson on TV in general.
I counter that the depiction of muscular females has increased in recent times, especially in cartoons and anime. So I’m not sure where you’re getting the 25 years ago, we’d see it. I suppose because back then FBB competitions used to be on TV, but I rarely saw muscular women in TV shows.
