Looks fun. Reminds me a lot of Farscape.

And they got Dr. Steve Brule in there too. Awesome.

Can you believe Disney is actually making a movie out of this, and Warner Bros. still doesn't have the courage to try and make a solo Wonder Woman film?

I mean, Jesus Christ. They made Thor into a fucking halfway decent movie. THOR!

They even made a good movie out of Lego!

But Wonder Woman? That's just too complicated.

wonder woman isn't really an interesting character

sadly, i think mishkin's mid-80s run is probably the only interesting WW material there is and they certainly aren't going to film that so fuck it

I don't buy that as an excuse. A good writer can make any character interesting.

I don't know why they don't let the people behind the DC animated stuff do a movie.

They already managed to make a good animated Wonder Woman movie.

Wow, I'm actually really excited for this movie now, it looks like it's going to be so much fun (I never expected to see a tentpole superhero movie trailer set to "Hooked on a Feeling"). I'm really happy and pleasantly surprised (not being very familiar with the comics or James Gunn's previous work I guess) that they're going with a lighter tone for this. I think the use of humor in Marvel's superhero films has consistently been one of the best parts of those movies (and something sorely lacking in DC's), so it'll be interesting to see them veer even further in a comedic direction.

I really don't get it when people rag on Marvel movies because of the humor. I think it's often a big part of what makes the movies so fun.

Incredible Hulk probably had the least humor, and most serious tone of all the movies, and it's also the one I find the most dull.

Yep. Some people are already bitching about "too much humor" in the trailer.

IT'S A MOVIE WITH A FUCKING TALKING SPACE RACCOON IN IT!

Even some people who liked the trailer are saying "I didn't expect this much comedy".

Why not? It's Marvel! Have you seen any of the movies before this?

Besides, James Gunn is directing. The guy wrote fucking Lollipop Chainsaw. How serious did you think it was gonna be?

Looks like a good blend of comedy and action. I'll watch it once it's out.

Me gusta.

And considering how much richer Disney is, I think they can moreso afford to make something more farfetched from mainstream successes (Avengers, Batman, Superman, etc) every once in a while.

The woman who plays Amy Pond on Doctor Who is in it too.

Well I'm sorry if you're not sophisicated enough to enjoy Christopher Nolan shoving his social commentary dick up your ass for three hours with characters from a comic book as a backdrop.


I have nothing against people who can use pot and lead a productive life. It's these sanctimonius hippies that make me wish I was a riot cop in the 60's

Because a certain large and vocal contingent of dorks are incredibly defensive and insecure about liking things that might be perceived as being meant for children. These would be the same kinds of people who obsess over all the "dark" humor that "snuck past the censors" on their favorite kids' cartoons or who insist that their favorite video games are actually mature solely by virtue of being rated "Mature."

Though this character seems more like Bert Macklin, FBI.

I'd like to see a Wonder Woman movie, preferably directed by Zack Snyder.

Then I'd like him to make a Lobo movie.

Good luck DCfriend. 'Bout as much chance of that as there is of Hank Pym NOT beating his wife (If he ever shows up at all).

If only Hollywood would give Image and Valiant some love. I'd like to see a good Spawn movie, and movies based on Youngblood, Pitt, the Darkness, etc.

Never liked the Guardians of the Galaxy much. It's kinda funny how they got Batista to play Drax. I wonder if Groot will have any dialogue other than "I am groot"
