Wonder Woman DTV Movie Trailer

The main thing I never really liked about Diana's DCAU persona is that she was too quick to look for a fight and was a little too hot-tempered. I would've preferred she'd more like the George Perez incarnation--just the right balance between warrior and peacemaker.

With JLU I kind of chalked a lot of that up to her just being a bit of a rookie to both her role as Wonder Woman and the world in general. Her character also didn't have a pre-set mission to "man's world" to really define what she did here. She basically defied her mother and the relative (if xenophobic) safety of the island in order to save the entire planet which while different was an interesting take. In a way, it still hits the same beat.

I think you're right about Perez. If I recall correctly, he also did a pretty solid take on the Amazons themselves where they were very cultured and scholarly in addition to being these great warriors. That's also a take I prefer to what seems to happen a lot where they just kind of treat the Amazons like they were from the Klingon Empire.

Yeah, George did a really good job with redefining the Amazons Post Crisis. J.M. DeMattias did the same during his run, although I still wonder if the whole Amazon Civil War thing was necessary.

 

[Sentaifan'07 Xman]

I concur

Awesome Will it be Lucy Lawless again?

 

[Ragna "D" BloodEdge]

Nope, Keri Russell.

I don't think this will be in continuity with DCAU.

Neither do I. The new DC Animated films have always been standalone (just like the "Millennium Series" Godzilla films), which is what I like about them. They don't get strangled by Byzantine continuity, the PG-13 rating allows the producers to take the characters to some new areas, and each character is allowed to take the center stage. (Don't get me wrong, though, I still love Justice League (Unlimited), but not all characters' treatments was necessarily the best.)

The Superman from Superman: Doomsday is probably my favorite Superman in the DCAU, more so than the JL(U) one. This Superman was allowed to be smart and charming, and Adam Baldwin pretty much nailed the character. I also liked the sleek colors on his costume, and wasn't really bothered by the cheekbone lines. The Superman from Justice League: The New Frontier (my favorite of the bunch) wasn't half-bad, either! A great representation of the Golden-Age Superman. (Then again, anything Darwyn Cooke has done is cool!)

Other than that, this new Wonder Woman film looks quite exciting! So far, I'm really impressed, though I hope to see a better trailer sometime! Her new look is quite good.
