The actually distinct version of WW is too real for Hollywood so she pretty much has to be Xena. I fear Black Panther, great cast aside, will be utterly basic as well. The world's not ready for a militant radical black superhero (as opposed to a stoic monarch), just like they're not ready for the femdom superheroine.

BrianWilly posted:It's not exactly about him being bulky, either. If you watch pro wrestling, you see that all these brickhouses come across real flexible and all swinging limbs and light as feathers. The thing about this is that it looks stupid and bad, and exactly like what it is, two guys cooperating to do some poo poo that couldn't even concievably occur in real life. It's not even selfconsciously stupid, like gunkata.

Bruce Wayne barely maintains any pretense, the lovely smirk on his face is daring someone to out him as Batman.

Mr. Apollo posted:I assumed that was a by product of being obscenely wealthy. Batman's only superpower is being obscenely wealthy. Everyone knows better than to bring it up, the cops don't care because he's on their side. Clark probably doesn't know because he's "new to Metropolis". Lex clearly knows and says so to his face, Diana can smell it on him.

I think it's a combination of her being a keen observer and him being not particularly subtle or discreet.

The White Portugese thing is a good example of Bruce being too clever by half.

Mr. Apollo posted:Do you mean his assumption that it's a person? Alfred figures it out in like two seconds but Bruce is so toy oriented that he figures he needs to bust out the mass spectrometer to hunt for clues. Lois is a far better detective just by doing her job.

Mr. Apollo posted:Yeah Bruce is fixated on it being a guy trying to smuggle a dirty bomb into Gotham. Alfred says something like "maybe it's a woman or maybe it's not a person and is simply a phantasm". His tendency in the film is to arrive at a conclusion and work backward to prove it.

The last 3-4 appearances of Batman on film have convinced me the only humor these films should attempt is making fun of Batman.

If BvS didn't get an Oscar Best Picture nod, no superhero film ever should with the possible exception of Spiderman 2.

Equeen posted:So are you purposely ignoring the fact that she's Jewish or what? Yeah, she definitely checks a lot of Western beauty standard boxes, but it's not very often that you see an olive-skinned foreign actress star in a big American blockbuster. Israelis are Western, white and European up until the time comes to score some points.

The great feminist heroine Lucy eschews violence in the most radical way possible, and that's only mildly out there.
