Meh. A nice, dark crimson would have made for a much moe interesting outfit.

Is Hollywood so devoid, so bankrupt of ideas, that they're re-hashing two bit superheroes from yesteryear?
Good god almighty!
There was a time you could look upon America and say, they gave us the Godfather, they gave us Mark Twain, Harry Truman, back to the future, the Sherman tank, krispy kreme donuts, Snyder's pretzels, Leslie Neilsen (Canadian ) John Candy (yeah he's Canadian but he went to Hollywood) John Landis (is he Canadian ) and of course, Clint Eastwood.
and so on and so on, and say, Yeah, America, good stuff. But nowadays.

Overall it isn't to bad, but the color palette, though it may be the lighting making it seem darker, and having heels on a combat outfit are my only complaints.

How far along are they in production (and how early in the production was this shot taken?). There could still be time to make changes.
Overall, I think the design of costume is ok, but it could use some gold trim to it, I think. The eagle part should definitely be very visible. And lose the heels.

I think the suit looks great and she looks great in it. She's clearly put on weight. Besides, WW has never looked like a female bodybuilder. Something more like a long, lean volleyball player build is a more realistic athletic shape for a woman anyway.
I don't understand why this gets so much attention when ScarJo looks even less athletic than Godot. Her posterior is glorious in the catsuit, but it's the result of eating bon-bons and not working out in the gym.
I really have to see the teaser footage. I know the movie is going to take some notes from The Dark Knight Returns, but I'm wondering if it'll borrow some from that story of their first meeting post-Crisis (which was more adversarial than friendly).
There's also talk that the studio is very happy with the script for BvS, and wants Terrio to write JL also.

In all but her Linda Carter iteration Diana has had some pretty real definition in both her arms and her legs.
And she's an amazon. She should basically look like Camille Leblanc-Bazinet.

Isn't she a demi-goddess? SO throwing tanks around sounds about right - let hope its as good as the Marvel films - DC still has a lot of catching up to do

Eh...she seemed too derp in that movie for me, and her attitude towards Superman was a bit gacky as well. I liked her more in the DCAU version of Justice League, where her voice actress not only did a phenomenal job but she was really well-developed as a character, particularly in her relationship with the Batman.

Her thing with supes was a clear nod to her dating him in the comics (I have no idea if they still are) at the time of the release.

Also agree. That was a damn fine Wonder Woman performance. Martian Manhunter too, but as I understand it, Martian Manhunter is too stupid for movies

Didn't it leak that in BvS they were going the direction of Wonder Woman being a Kryptonian who was on Earth for a lot longer than Clark?

I think that the Amazonians were descendents of the survivors of the crashed ship they found in MoS, but that is just rumor.

I like it, I know it doesn't follow the bright blue and red suit but people always go on about realism so a brown/dark leather armour would be much more in line with what she'd wear.
I think she has a great body for the Amazon warrior type, genetically women aren't built to put on muscle like men do so her sword style would be more one of speed rather than heavy crushing blows and she's got the whole demi-goddess thing so it's not like she'd need to work out and get crazy buff to lift things.
The sword looks like it's on a strange angle so it might be longer than the pic makes it out to be.
However, why in the fething heck is she wearing wedges (heels with the solid one piece according to the missus)? Is she trying to roll an ankle because she's definitely going to. I've seen girls twist and fall walking down the street in these, how is she going to go into combat on rugged terrain and not have to crawl away because her ankle broke so badly that her foot is facing the wrong way?
At least Gadot's ethnicity is more in line with the region that Amazons would be from rather than the Caucasian look we've had for the past seventy years.
