I dunno I think Avengers is the better. But everything Bruce Timm made is a close 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, etc.Epic_Bubble said:Can I just say that the cartoon Justice League and its ilk are far in a million times better than almost every single super hero film to date.
I will even go as far as to say that the cartoon Avengers series is miles above its movie counterpart, no matter how good the Avengers movie was.
Ok back to the topic at hand, cant really say I am all that bothered. The jacket look, looks trendy at most but I get what Bob is going for , The leggings version just doesn't make her seem like a Amazon goddess, and the swim suit costume is my favorite cause I am a guy and yeah she just looks bad ass in it. Her legs as much as it makes me sound sexist is a focal point for the character. Bat man is black, superman has underwear on the outside and women wonder has wonder legs. Notice how the movie where superman didn't have his underwear on the outside sucked ass? Coincidence?
I would like to point out that I think the X Men have for a long time got this whole costume thing right. Everyone has a 1 size fits all same style costume and what attracts you to them is their powers( NOOO don't bring that Jubilee crap around here I don't have time to say how that character just doesn't work in any sense).
Gabbit has flaming stuff, cyclops shoots lazors and even Storm is frikken awesome cause she fires heaven smiting lightning from her hands not because her outfit looks like power girl.
Greek. You meant Greek.vagabondwillsmile said:This may be the unpopular opinion, but I'm completely ok with the pants. I've always thought (even as a child) that fighting in a swimsuit is stupid (though admittedly I've never been bothered by Street Fighter's costuming except for Makoto's ribbon around her neck... It's around her neck! I mean $#!7 - it's around her @#!$ing neck! But I digress). I've always hated her official costuming. I've also always hated Superman's (along with most other mainstream unitard/cape combos). So yah - pants are fine by me.
Though, if Thor can work, I really REALLY wish WB would take a damn risk and go full Roman soldier with her: helmet, sandals, guantles, manica, greaves, pteruges, and all.
No worries - nit successfully picked! Yah, I had forgotten the term for the protective waist and thigh covering, and looked up "Roman armor" - thus neglecting that her mythological Amazonion origins are indeed Greek. Thanks for pointing that out!Pogilrup said:Greek. You meant Greek.vagabondwillsmile said:This may be the unpopular opinion, but I'm completely ok with the pants.

Sorry for the nitpick.
MovieBob has gone on record to say that he reads Sucker Punch as being anti-sexist at its core (see: His review [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/escape-to-the-movies/2962-Sucker-Punch], and "You Are Wrong About Sucker Punch", Parts 1 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/the-big-picture/6247-You-Are-Wrong-About-Sucker-Punch-Part-One] and 2 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/the-big-picture/6266-You-Are-Wrong-About-Sucker-Punch-Part-Two])Trishbot said:So, let me get this straight...
This is a movie directed by the guy who made Sucker Punch, written by the guy who thinks She-Hulk is just a giant green porn star for the Hulk to bang, with consultation by the guy responsible for "sperm bank" Wonder Woman and Sin City, starring a super-skinny supermodel with very limited acting experience best known for looking "sexy" for a few scenes of the last Fast & Furious movie.
... Good lord. All we need is some Mark Millar tossed in there and we'll hit the sexist bingo.
And I think a lot of people, myself included, don't give Zack Snyder that much credit. Three out of four of the movies I've seen him do involved women being sexually assaulted, and the last one was Superman (so I doubt Warner Bros would have stood for that). He's the guy, after all, that decided to ADD a rape scene to a Frank Miller adaptation.LenticularHomicide said:MovieBob has gone on record to say that he reads Sucker Punch as being anti-sexist at its core (see: His review [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/escape-to-the-movies/2962-Sucker-Punch], and "You Are Wrong About Sucker Punch", Parts 1 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/the-big-picture/6247-You-Are-Wrong-About-Sucker-Punch-Part-One] and 2 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/the-big-picture/6266-You-Are-Wrong-About-Sucker-Punch-Part-Two])
To get back on topic, the post-credits message on his Sucker Punch review states plainly that in his opinion, "long pants don't work" on Wonder Woman. And now we know why.
