Originally posted by roughriderMeh, Wonder Woman looks awful in this movie so far. WAAAAAY too super model....not enough beef.

The trailer still looks good, despite several annoyances.
Supes won't be willing to deal out another death blow in another movie. Batman's psychologically blocked about killing...so I hope we get to see their shocked faces when Diana steps up and decapitates this foe in front of them. 😉

I wouldn't say Gal Gadot looks awful, but I agree that I'd prefer someone else for Wonder Woman. Megan Gale would've been perfect as far as looks and height are concerned.
Bryan Cranston as Lex should've happened, too. Let's just hope everyone involved did a good job.
Originally posted by Zack MUm, what? 😆 What "most people" have you been talking too? She's waaaay to skinny to look like WW, and most of my friends and fellow nerds agree. She's a good looking woman, but that doesn't instantly qualify her to play Diana...
Gal looks waaay better than I expected. Most people are digging it.

2 years ago, Gal was the talk of the town at comic con. And it was mostly positive buzz. And it still is.

Any positive feedback is being "overly" positive. Given her history in Hollywood shows she really can't act. Have you seen her in Fast & Furious?
I said nothing about her acting. I said her looks. Once the picture dropped at comic con, twitter blew up with a lot of positive buzz. Was it ALL positive? Nope, but most if the polls and video reviews liked the look. Saying it had a lot of silver age homage to it. Even John campea liked it and he hated the idea of gal Gadot being ww. I never once said gals acting was good, I said she looked much better than expected. Just the first overall impression of her. Time will tell if she can act the role.

How are you judging this? I'm looking at polls and social media and for the most part, it's positive.
You cannot tell me Gal Gadot was overwhelmingly received with confidence and favor as Wonder Woman. Not on here or any site. Sure, there are people that approved, but so what? There were many more that were pissed, including John Campea.

I'm talking social media. There are some posters who actually like the look here, me included. I can give you multiple sites and even polls that show this. John Campea actually liked the LOOK of WW.
BTW, here is Campea's thoughts on the trailer. He thinks the trailer is amazing and one of the best trailer he's seen in YEARS. Note at the end of his review he says there is nothing that he's worried about in the trailer.
And another
And another positive review of WW from IGN.
Chris Stuckmann's thoughts, mostly positive.

Again, in social media, it's positive. 🙂

I'm not denying that people like the way she looks in costume. IMO, she just looks decent and is still too skinny. I said the reception to her being cast was overwhelmingly negative. People weren't collectively jumping up and down for joy when she was cast.
Edit: I didn't have to look far to find out that Hollywoodlife's own forum members still find her lacking, even though it was only a few of them. Even disappointed Youtubers on the IGN video you posted can be found there.
