    w/Darker Hair, he Looks EXACTLY Like the Comic Book Version of Hercules, Which AIN'T a Good Thing...

    Agreed.
    Thor with short hair: shit
    Hulk with helmet/armor: double-shit

    I have been saying the same thing since last year: this movie will be a YUUGE box office grosser. There might be other female comicbook characters that have bombed (mainly because they were AWFUL films), but there is only ONE Wonder Woman, a character as well known and loved as much as Superman. The incredible success of the lame 70s Wonder Woman tv series is a testimony to the goodwill toward this character. Plus she was the sole bright spot in that fiasco that was 'Batman v Superman: Yawn of Justice'. I predict that this film will make at least a minimum of $500 million worldwide. And if the movie turns out to be actually GOOD, it will make even more!

    Make No Mistake, that "Goodwill" was MUCH More about Lynda Carter than the Character She was Portraying...

    Lynda Carter's LOOK and BUILD Resonated w/Dudes of EVERY Walk of Life...The Bullet Proof Bracelets, Lasso of Truth and Invisible Plane were CORNY, and REED Gave Very Little Thought to Wonder Woman's BADASSERY/Fighting Prowess, but from Day 1, REED Enjoyed LOOKING @ Her...Everything Else was Mere Window Dressing...

    Sure, this Film Will Do QUITE Well w/Females and Effeminate Males, but as a Stand Alone Flick, REED Questions how it Does w/College Aged, Hetero Males or Dudes 30+...The New Wonder Woman's Physique ISN'T as Feminine, and the Costume ISN'T as Revealing...Less Sex Appeal, by Design, MORE BadAssery, By Design...

    To the Degree Males Watch Female Sporting Events En Masse, SEX APPEAL is an Undeniable Part of the Package...UNDERSELLING It for a Stand Alone Wonder Woman Flick is RISKY as Hell...

    Dude, the "Wonder Woman" tv series was a ratings winner mainly among little girls who for the first time had a superheroine character they could idolize. You could see not only little girls, but also high school teenager girls doing the Wonder Woman spin. Lots of WW pjs and costumes were sold and posters were in almost every room. Yes, Lynda Carter was a YUUGE factor for guys, but to the female audience it was the character. Heck, even my wife who totally dislikes superheroes 7 scifi films is looking forward to this film and already told our two teenager girl that they too will have to watch this film. For the feminists and snowflakes watching this film is a DUTY. Also in countries were women are still subjugated, this film will be YUUGE among females who at least for 2 hours will feel empowered.

    Marvel will be handing the Captain Marvel film to directors [COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8)]Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck. They also claim they're going to be hands off and let the directors do it their own way. We will see if that stays the case. [/COLOR]

    I am not a big fan of female Captain Marvel tbh. I used to collect the original Captain Marvel comicbooks when they first came out but lost interest when they turn him way more powerful than he originally was and then the gay costume change. as the comicbook sales fell dramatically the best thing Marvel did was to kill him. That should have been the end of it. But then they came with the female version and when the costume and name changed to Ms Marvel, the new sexy version propelled the sales. then they went back to a name change to Captain Marvel with yet another outfit change and currently there is a new Muslim teenager Captain Marvel which is complete SHIT!:bangh:

    Probably right.
    Plus, if the success of Beauty & The Beast is anything to use as a ´gauge´, it will appeal to the LGBT crowd as well, being as Wonder Woman was a huge gay ´icon´...

    However some are using 'Ghost in the Shell' epic bomb as an indicator that WW will be the lowest grossing DCEU film to date as Gal Gadot is a lesser known than Scarlett Johansson. But, hey the last Resident Evil bombed here but was a HUGE blockbuster in the rest of the world! So it is a real gamble for many.

    Popularity of ´Ghost In The Shell´ vs Wonder Woman? :scratcher:

    The former is just a Japanese manga character - who the fuck had heard of it except the Japs and hardcore manga fans?

    Yup. That is why I don't give too much weight to that argument, plus GITS had atrocious reviews too.

    Gal Gadot may be less known than Johansson but Wonder Woman is more well known than GitS. So the property may be more valuable than the actor playing it and could make the difference in attendance sales.

    BINGO!

    When 'Superman: The Movie' was announced starring unknown soap opera & theater actor, 24 year old Christopher Reeve, many people predicted it will flop. The studio hired Marlon Brando & Gene Hackman merely to have recognizable & box office proven actors to compensate for Reeves unproven screen charisma. But People didn't flocked to buy tickets around the block to watch Brando or Hackman: they came to watch SUPERMAN! The brand was what sell as was proven in that first film and its sequel.

    Wonder woman would make a LOT of money. I have no doubt. Everyone is curious to see it.

    It will also help that there won't be much competition going up against it.

    I would be shocked if it made over 80 million it's opening weekend. But whatever it does will go down drastically in the second week. DC universe also has already two movies back to back who's ratings were not that great in BVS and Suicide Squad and it will be going up against a children's movies called Captain Underpants. But that is also not it's only problem. The week prior, is Baywatch & Pirates of the Caribbean. and the week after is The Mummy. Put all those things together, and add in that Gal Gadot has never starred in a major movie and Chris Pine is box Office poison and the last superhero movie with a woman bombed just like they all do in Ghost in a Shell and you have yourself a nice recipe for disaster.

    What you say has merit on paper, no doubt. But this is about the intangibles, if you will. I think people are genuinely intrigued with what they can do with Wonder Woman and I think it'll be the best DCEU film to date.

    If it sucks and it's a bust...well that'll be the end of the DCEU. But I think it'll save the franchise

    Makes sense.
    The public are dumb enough to flock for that first week though...

    I for one am looking forward to seeing how they handle paradise island and the amazons. Plus it's a pretty good cast on the Anazon side of things with Robin Wright and Connie Nielsen as Antiope and hippolyta respectively

    Also the fact that they have Patty Jenkins directing is not a good sign. Only thing she has done was the movie "monster" 13 years ago. But DCU wanted a woman to direct wonder woman for some reason. As if it wasnt men that have been writing her.

    Because now you know they'll remove any sign of 'sexism' or 'objectification' from the movie to appease Feminists. :lol:

    I hope not. I'm hoping for a scene in which Chris Pine bends her over and bones her raw.

    'to young boys, Wonder Woman will counter the gender roles that they have been taught within this patriarchal society, and to young girls, they will now have a superhero that they can relate and look up to"

    This shit makes my fuckin blood boil.
    Basically trying to fucking change how a teenage male is programmed genetically & biologically to view and see a woman and in effect, 'feminize' him?

    Fuck that shit.

    Marvel is making a mistake by bringing the SJW version of Captain Marvel. When the character was the sexy kitten that spawned a thousand cosplay copycats they had a hit in their hands. What they did with it? changed the whole thing, made her look and talk like a fucking lesbian and removed any hint of sexiness from her outfit plus made her personality damn boring & politically-correct. Sales went down, but they keep shoving this version...now as a Muslim girl!

    before, Ms Marvel, the version we all drooled to watch in the screen

    after, the current version that will be seen in theaters next year
