Kelley made fun of it in Harrys Law by having Erica Durance(Smallville's Lois)be a vigilante dressed up as WW and then be arrested for it. He loves his meta that one.

Marvel gave him some required points, but then trusted him to fill in the blanks. They gave him the restrictions & the freedom to be creative.Marknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-17234887941579992212013-01-13T06:29:48.641-05:002013-01-13T06:29:48.641-05:00Indeed.

She sort of traveled the world. She was very powerful and very naïve about people, and the fact that she was a goddess was how I eventually found my in to her humanity and vulnerability, because she would look at us and the way we kill each other and the way we let people starve and the way the world is run and she’d just be like, ‘None of this makes sense to me. I can’t cope with it, I can’t understand, people are insane.’ And ultimately her romance with [classic Wonder Woman love interest Steve Trevor] was about him getting her to see what it’s like not to be a goddess, what it’s like when you are weak, when you do have all these forces controlling you and there’s nothing you can do about it. That was the sort of central concept of the thing. Him teaching her humanity and her saying, OK, great, but we can still do better.”<br /><br />Sounds like we missed something good.Samantha M.

But that was back when film execs didn't take Whedon seriously which is a pity!Nadimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09432781029841283198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-68575187639796072582013-01-13T00:05:07.659-05:002013-01-13T00:05:07.659-05:00I could tell from the first released image that th...I could tell from the first released image that this show was never going to series. From everything I've read, this was an abyssmal pilot that deserved not to get picked up. It is good to hear it wasn't her fault though. I liked her in Supernatural, even though she's only been in two episodes. <br /><br />CW is currently working on a pilot for a show called Amazon, which is loosely based on Wonder Woman. I imagine it'll be a companion series for Arrow. Here's to hoping that one is a lot better.Samantha M.

I've been curious about the Pilot ever since I heard about it, but never read any details on why it was supposedly so bad!<br /><br />Pity about Adrienne Palicki, I'd really like to see her get another good role one of these days...<br /><br />As for WW, want I'd really love to see is Joss Whedon's take on the character! I still can't believe the suits passed on his movie proposal. This is the man who made a blonde cheerleader into a believable slayer of vampires! Wonder Woman would have been perfectly safe in his hands! *sigh*<br />Can he sneak her into S.H.I.E.L.D. I wonder? :pCrazyCrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17512240982215608638noreply@blogger.com
