Archer and Armstrong vs. the World
|
It seems like most of the sexist complaints revolving around Wonder Woman invariably focus on her costume, which is such a minor aspect of the character that it seems like it could easily be fixed with like, I dunno, some blue leggings and a higher neck-line? Just not like they were going to do in the comics (a move everyone complained about for some reason), just like some straight up blue, or black, leggins while keeping the original bikini-thing on there too.
I guess there is also the Amazonian man-hating background but since she ends up teaming up with a male soldier in her origin story to stop the evil menace (whatever that might end up being, they should just go ahead and make it Ares or whatever but something along those liens) the movie's plot itself would be about her development into an open-minded person along with her exposure to the outside world. And yeah they changed it from being made of clay to being the love-child of Zeus and Diana's mother, basically making her a demi-god like Hercules. Which makes the most sense, in the end.

I don't care about Wonder Woman, they need to do a Swamp Thing reboot and throw in John Motherfucking Constantine.
This time with less neo and more British. |

I too appreciated the many lingering shots of Scarlett Johannson's backside.

Scarlett Johansson is 1 year older than me, has more money than i'll ever have, has done more charity than i'm likely to ever be able to, is hot as hell, talented and a person i can safely place on the "i'm not going to boing ever" list... what is left for a nerd to do if not Cat Calls?
