Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Zach Synder, UGH. I would be otherwise psyched to see Wonder Woman on the big screen, but I just can't with Snyder.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Oh, geez. I really want to see WW on the big screen, in a good role in a good movie, ideally HER OWN movie. But in a Zach Snyder movie, played by an actress that, sorry, I can't see giving the impression of the necessary physical strength...yeah, I'm not thrilled. Maybe they'll surprise me.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Pete made the comment that the snippet shown from F+F didn't give any indication that the actress could act; I pointed out that with Zach Snyder directing, it didn't matter. He conceded the point.

She was actually pretty awesome in the Fast & Furious movie, though I think she's a bit too slender for the Diana role.

Jaime Alexander and Lynn Collins would have been my top choices for the role.

I agree, but she'll bulk up. As many have pointed out, pretty much every superhero casting has been "Really?" followed by "OKAY I SEE NOW" by the time the movie actually comes out.

The clip on io9 is not the one I would have chosen; plenty of better short scenes from the movie to show how badass she is.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Affleck has not yet failed to disappoint me in this regard.

On point.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have a hard time envisioning a woman bulking up for a role unless she's playing a fat girl or a serial killer. Sadly.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Linda Hamilton for Terminator, Demi Moore for GI Jane.

Granted, that's naught compare to the bulked up menz.
