The Suicide Squad movie, directed by David Ayer, is planned for release August 5, 2016 with four A-listers currently in talks to star. On June 23, 2017, Gal Gadot will get her own Wonder Woman movie, and later that year on November 23, we'll get Zack Snyder's highly-anticipated Justice League Part 1, for which Warner Bros. CEO Kevin Tsujihara confirms will bring "back the cast of Batman v Superman with a cast of other well-known and highly-anticipated superheroes." He continued, "Wonder Woman is an iconic female superhero fans have been anticipating for many years." The announcements don't end there: 2018 will then see the release of The Flash movie on March 23, followed by Aquaman on July 27. Then, Dwayne "the Rock Johnson's Shazam movie will be released on April 5, 2019, following by Justice League Part 2, which Zack Snyder will return to direct for release on June 14, 2019.  And by year 2020, we'll have a Cyborg movie on April 3rd, and a Green Lantern reboot on June 19th.. Also in the works are solo Batman and Superman movies, but they don't have dates.

ugh. WW is gonna suck. rather have a flash standalone before JL or instead of shazam. sandman doesn't really count.

Biggest problem with a wonder woman movie? They'll want to have a short, thin broad that is just not believable. You need a 6' tall woman, with the body of an Olympic swimmer

I don't know how tall Gal Gadot is but I do know she is pretty thin but she could put on some weight for the role.

 

 

The problem I hope they avoid with Wonder Woman is turning her into a one note character that is only there to be a feminist icon.

You do Wonder Woman as she was originally conceived (hot chick with superpowers in skimpy outfit) and you anger all the feminists.

 

You do Wonder Woman like the feminists would want (star of a Lifetime original movie with superpowers) and nobody in your target audience will pay to see it.

 

So whadda ya do?

I disagree. Why does it have to comic book style? TDK Trilogy wasn't in retrospect and it was highly successful. Wonder Woman is one of those few comic book characters that has a mediocre stable of villains and controversial origin, and yet somehow became a pop culture icon.

They follow the source material in darkness and tone closely. Pulling style and story elements loosely from a few of the darker comics.

Batman: year one is what the first movie is based on.

Then DK was based on man who laughs, killing joke and long Halloween.

Finally rises was based on no mans land and knight fall.

It was just done in a seemingly more realistic fashion. Still very much comic book movies though.

As for the WW movie, plenty of good villains to choose from. WW looses it's style and appeal if done differently. Batman had plenty of dark story-lines that made the trilogy possible in the way it was done.

Disagree.  The original Batman comic books as conceived by Batman creator Bob Kane were actually quite dark in tone.  Batman started getting back to his "darkness" after Frank Miller's books hit stores.

 

Nolan did a fantastic job of merging the comics with 'real world' conditions.

With which outfit?

 

And honestly, I don't think that's so simple.  The list of great actioners with female leads is a relatively short one ("underworld" is probably the best; "Tomb Raider" was awful).  Maybe male action movie directors just don't know how to use female leads.  Regardless of the reason though, you'd still have the controversy.

 

Me?  I'd just say 'screw it' and do the traditional Wonder Woman without apology.  Controversy isn't necessarily a bad thing if it sells tickets.  Not so sure a big movie studio will go that route though.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.

      I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it.

      LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
