    Here’s a link to the 1989 Batman film teaser. They obviously handled it better than this Wonder Woman promo.

    My real problem with the clips is that they didn’t show her speaking as Wonder Woman. Anybody can do those action moves and wear a costume. How she speaks as Wonder Woman will be an important sell to me. Aside from that, it’s just clips and anachronistic scenes.

    Did anybody else notice that more guys spoke about her character than the director, Paty Jenkins?

    They should revisit Devilman Lady. There’s less diversity in anime now than in the past three decades.

    That’s Flint, from the Stormwatch comics.

    It still hasn’t sold me to go watch it.

    I have some signed autographs from her. I remember thinking of her as a model for Ms. Marvel/Carol Danvers’ physique.

    OK.

    Looking at it now, it doesn’t make any sense. The way she’s climbed over the edge and looked up isn’t convincing. Even the Exorcist can’t do that.

    And we can not deny that the best image is she killing Jabba the end.

    You get instant recall on that scene? I just remember a crazy battle where Luke is swinging his lightsaber and R2-D2 is zapping that pest off of C3-PO.

    I agree with the collector. Sex appeal is not going away in our heroines. But fashion trends change over time.

    I never got into ‘slave Leia’. When I got an autograph from Carrie Fisher I chose the white robes image instead of the slave image. The slave image didn’t represent Leia to me, but how Jabba dressed her.

    Superhero costumes are also changing, mostly due to the influences of movie production. They know they can’t convince the audience that wearing tights is enough to look like a superhero. I don’t agree with how it’s affected all superhero comics (Superman’s costume), but shows they want the audience to take them more seriously.

    However, strong heroines don’t have to show more skin just to be more appealing. If the creators can convey the character without resorting to eye candy then she’s more than skin deep. I know lots of Deviantart love to make Avatar Korra look super-sexy but her actual clothes were fine IMHO.

    Cool. Good to know more Indian women are breaking stereotypes.
