Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

That would not be a bad choice at all, if she's supposed to be the young just-got-off-the-invisible-plane-to-Man's-World version.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And if she hasn't eaten in a while. My WW is a bit more robust than ED.

I have to agree with ita.

Lauren Graham could look the part. As could Lucy Lawless. I'd rather see Gina Torres, though, if only because I know how capable she is of kicking ass on screen.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think Gina is going to be too old for their conception off WW. Also, I'd be surprised at a race-blind casting for such an iconic role. Hollywood not being notably progressive in that way.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I could never take Lauren Graham seriously as Wonder Woman. She'd just look like Lorelai wearing the outfit. Because you know Lorelai would at some point wear the outfit.

Unfortunately, I have to agree, especially if this is franchise material.

Yeah, well, no one thought Michael Keaton could play Batman.

And now I'm not sure what point I'm supporting with that. But I'll leave it.
