Amazon: CW's Wonder Woman Series

Seeing as they won't be doing it with individual movies first, I can't see another option. They could strike gold with JLA, but you have to admit that the odds are against them on this.

No movie is perfect, even Avengers wasn't perfect and the cast wasn't perfect, either.

So, no, I don't think copying Marvel is the be all end all.

Huh? Avengers had a great cast, and pretty much every major role was spot on. What didn't you like?

Would it work if they just made a Kingdom Come movie instead of a JLA one? Movie is told similar to how KC was written/narrated. I think that would work. Atleast they would know where to begin and end and any twist they can add to make it vary from the original. With the JLA movie, where would one even start. Another group of heroes team up to fight a bad guy?

that doesn't really set up a franchise, though. That, and to fully appreciate Kingdom Come requires a decent knowledge of DC. At least with a JLA movie you can have it as a semi-origin story.

I've always didn't care for Scarlet in any movie. She's an average actress, IMO. I would have preferred Edward Norton as Bruce Banner, because Mark Ruffolo (Sp?) was just OK. Don't get me wrong, the cast was really good, but not perfect in my eyes.

This is how I see the movie ending:
Darkseid destroys Krypton (whatever) and Superman is knocked back for miles because of the attack. Wonder Woman or Batman swoops in and says, "need any help, sporto?"

Then the movie ends. 🙂

Iris lol?

Iris is a casting name, not WW's name in the show.

I thought Scarlet did a good job. I've never gotten the hype about her, but I think she was more than decent as Widow.

Have to disagree on Ruffalo. I thought he was excellent as Banner.

And that would suck, honestly.

These people have to be able to carry solo movies by themselves. So if the guy playing Flash, or Aquaman, or GL sucks, no movie for them.

I always thought Scarlet J would make a good Sue Richards.

I think she would be a better sue than scarlet. Tbh I dont care for many modern actresses. Jennifer conneley and kate winslet are the only ones I like as actors and find attractive. Jennifef connely in her prime of course.

Jennifer Connelly was a good Betty Rose.

Is she gonna wear pants this time? That would be awesome.

I think getting her costume "just right" is going to be a big part of whether WW "works" or not, and that's a tough nut to crack. It's going to have to be that perfect blend of traditional and innovative, sexy and serious. I have seen some good (imo) candidates online, eg, Pixar's take...

...but I may also be influenced by how they did WW, too, eg, hair up, serious look, big shoulders. Another variation...

Basically, I want "Warrior" to hit me when I see her, with "I'd hit it" as a follow-up reaction.

Pants seem to scare people, so at least give her roman legionnaire-style skirt, so she doesn't come off as a joke. "I'd hit it" should never have to be a dress code requirement, certainly not for the only notable female JLA member. Give her some dignity, everything else will fall into place from that.

It says Arrow not Amazon. I didn't even see Amazon on the list.

SHIELD was no.2. Is that coming this year??

Click on the red 1 and you'll see Amazon.

Bold prediction, considering the pilot hasn't even been shot yet, no finished script and no cast.

its most likely due to the success of Arrow

She's gonna look something like this.

No classic look.

Which means looking like she did in that pilot that didn't get picked up?

I think if they follow the lead of Arrow, it will be more functional, less fancy.

Actually I would consider the picture I posted as more functional than this.

They were right to cancel that series. She looks like she just came out of a costume party or rodeo. The costume looks too plastic.

This, however, is more tamed. It would be essential for her belt and tiara to be metallic it though. They can even take out the tiara and make her less comically looking.

The pilot was crap too.
