Jeezus H Christ! That new tv series get-up looks downright garish! They need make up their minds which WW look to use..

Well I like the tits. But no star spangled panties is laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame. Now I have no gap shots to look forward to when she does high kicks. That's really a bad shot of her though. She looks atrocious in that pic and she's really quite lovely.

Palicki is actually quite appealing usually. There she looks like a guy tryin to look like a chick but doing it badly.

Who should be Wonder Woman? In my opinion: Jennifer Connelly (after a workout program to give her an amazonian look of strength and also a relatively high-calorie diet to give her back at least some of the curves she had in her 20s) or Evelina Papantoniou (though she looks a little too slim in that picture raum posted, and I reckon she's quite unlikely to even be considered for the role because she's not a Hollywood name; then again, these days they're casting mostly non-Americans in superhero roles).

Who will be Wonder Woman? Whichever actress they can get who's a fairly big name and also happens to have dark hair.

Doesn't Hollywood tend to go for whoever is a bigger name as opposed to who is best suited to the character?

Yeah but then again this tv show starring Palicki as WW is being run by the guy who created Ally McBeal. I foresee it being more camp & melodramatic in nature than anything they could have come up with for the big screen. btw Connelly in her Inventing The Abbotts prime would've worked for me too.

Yeah Connolly back in her prime was definite WW material but she's too old now. She just looks middle aged now and her tities went bye bye a long time ago. I'll give Palicki the benefit of the doubt. Otherwise for a future movie with an actual WW outfit on a hot chick I'd love to see a natural brunette play her. I always pictured a chick that looked like Juie Strain back in her prime. She was hot as hell and like 8 ft tall.

It really is a tough movie to make cause any chick wearing the WW actual outfit looks like a stripper so it would be tough to pull off without looking campy. But I'd see it....40 times.

It's Palicki that worries me so much as I know she has acting chops & the bod. It's David E Kelly.

Strain is who Rags Morales modelled his Diana on in Identity Crisis.

Not really. If you look at all the great artists who've drawn WW, It's only the panties that are supposed to look shiny. So if the tv show (or a movie) were to just go with the classic look and ditch the shiny crap, it'd look ok...or if they go for the current look, I've heard JMS decribe it as armor/kevlar on top & wetsuit material for the rest.

Oh yeah I mean I have NO faith in David E Kelly. Just from what I've heard about the script and she'll be playing the head of a corporation and then playing her own secretary? WTF? It'll be goofy but I'm just kinda looking at it like Smallville. Hopefully it won't hurt the chances to see a REALWonder Woman movie someday. I figure Smallville didn't hurt Supes so hopefully this won't do in a movie either. I tried posting this last night but maybe I hit preview by mistake....here are some looks people did with photoshop. I kinda dig the one with the loincloth and the shield (shields are all the rage this Spring).

I think it will hurt it if the ratings bomb. Warners have been looking for an excuse to justify why strong female leads can't carry a show ever since Buffy proved them wrong.

So that's why you dig Cap..
