Her origin story hasn't even been consistent. Gotta take each version as it appears, so I guess we won't know if in the movie she's bulletproof until she's hit, or if she can fly until she does so.
They lost me when they moved it to World War One. Huh?
I suspect part of it is to escape the shadow of Captain America. Part of it is the utter brutality of that war (GrimDark ho!)They lost me when they moved it to World War One. Huh?
There's plenty of room in WWII for more than one superhero.
Where's the Wonder Woman who's a fan of dinosaurs and birthday cakes? And why is my google-fu so weak I can't find the picture that proves that?
I prefer it this way. Gets away from the terrible trio of DCEU movies.
I mean, hoping it's good.

An origin story set in World War II that results in flashing forward to the hero in modern day is just asking for critics to draw parallels to Captain America. If you are saying it is possible to tell a different story in that vein, of course it is. But that might require a degree of finesse that the DCEU can provide at the moment.There's plenty of room in WWII for more than one superhero.

?? I know. That is what are discussion is entirely about.But it's not World War II.
It's World War I.
Yeah. I have been explaining why it is not set in WWII. Because it would draw comparisons. I think you jumped into the middle of the conversation there and thus the confusion.
I thought it was a typo and was being stupid, and this is what I get for thinking I can skim a thread real quick on break and still participate.
Also, I'm honestly up for World War I as the setting because I feel it would be more fitting, considering the fact that (I believe) Ares is supposed to be the main villain for this film.

Ok, I finally watched the trailer.
Imagine Dragons? Really? Especially a song that was previously most known as a League of Legends SUPERTRYHARD SRS BZNS promo?
Also... this dress.

The finest hammer space I've ever seen.

Well, yeah, Captain America had that one covered
Tell me that wouldn't be a hell of a power couple. Not to mention a pretty significant Steve upgrade.Well, yeah, Captain America had that one covered
I'd also like to mention that if they REALLY wanted to do WWII in the dc universe, you'd do the Vandal Savage version involving time travel. Bonus points if we get to see the Black Hawks.

You mean the one where Jon Stewart goes back to the 40s and experiences NO RACISM WHATSOEVER?
I kid, I kid, I liked that episode of JL too.
To be fair...You mean the one where Jon Stewart goes back to the 40s and experiences NO RACISM WHATSOEVER?

- It was Europe.
- He was a Marine with Marines, wasn't he?
Though really, they could have had him interact with a segregated unit I guess.
Article about Wonder Woman vs the rest of the DCEU
"In the wake of the overwhelmingly positive reviews for Wonder Woman, the success of director Patty Jenkins was immediately used, by many, as an indictment of every film that wasn’t hers"
I think they were indicting themselves just fine before that.
Cue the "leave Zack Snyder alone!!!" outcry.

Well, I wanted Zack Snyder off of the DC movies, but not like this. That is so fucking shitty.

It's absolutely horrible. I really don't know what to say about it.
Yeah, I mean, I really dislike his movies, but I wanted him fired, not to suffer a personal tragedy like this. That's terrible.
I mean, I've certainly been vocal about his work, but that was always criticizing Snyder the filmmaker. No one, no matter how much I dislike their professional work, should ever have to go through this.
Never would wish this on him or his family. I hope Internet can be civil about it.
Already seen one comment that said something to the effect of "I bet his daughter killed herself because she finally saw BvS."
For fuck's sake, Internet.
Sorry to hear this about Snyder's daughter. I personally didn't hate MoS and BvS, they weren't great films but I found enough in them to enjoy. I would've been ok with Snyder staying on, but now this happens, and ugh... it's all so shitty.
Unless the suicide note said Martha.
What? Don't look at me like that, Zach Snyder doesn't read this.
