Pre-wank is my least favourite flavour of wank. People are bitching about Adrianne's casting because she can't act, she's short, she's unathletic, she's blonde.
And many of those bitching about the acting don't seem to have seen her in anything.
Bitch about the premise of the show! Do some research, people. There's plenty to be miserable about. Her hair colour is really not it.
Seriously. And she did fantastic work on
Friday Night Lights.
To be honest, I can't picture her with the right hair - blue-black with her coloring, I don't know - but I don't really doubt that in the army of people working on the show someone will find a way to make her look all right. I can't understand people thinking she can't act. I don't know if she can do her own stunts, but she can certainly carry herself like she's a badass convincingly.
I can't understand anyone thinking she's SHORT.
Maybe it's the curse of working with the Padamonster.
The kvetching people were pointing at a picture of Jess and Sam and saying it made her look short--except she doesn't look short next to him, because at that time, he didn't look like a monster yet. In heels she's closer to his height than the average woman to the average man.
Haters wanna hate.
I hate haters.
Haters wanna hate is exactly right. I love Adrienne Palicki, so I'm biased, but I don't care.
Traci Dinwiddie, who plays Pamela, was lobbying to get an audition, according to her Twitter. I don't know much (read: anything outside of vague memories of Lynda Carter) about Wonder Woman, but I think she might be a little old for the the role, right?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure she's older than they'd be looking at.
My dream casting was Gina Torres, but alas, we don't live in that world.
People are also complaining Adrianne's too young. She's older than Lynda Carter was when she got the role, but how is that relevant?
Oh, Gina Torres. She should be in everything, though.
I think Adrienne Palicki would look fine as Wonder Woman: [link] I didn't even realize there was a show in the making. I'm worried with it being a David Kelley production, we're going to get Ally McBeal with a lasso.
