Great Hera... It's the Wonder Woman Villains thread!

[KRYPTON INC.]

Cheetah, Circe, Dr. Psycho, Giganta and all the rest... This is the place to discuss the Amazon Princess' foes.

 

[Dark Raven]

I'd like Cheetah at some point, and definitely Giganta. I don't want Giganta evolved from an ape though. I want her to look like this:

If she and Cheetah are in the same movie, they can both have the jungle look.

Not sure which Cheetah I'd want though. Priscilla Rich or Barbara Minerva?

 

[DaddlerTheDalek]

Cheetah is the first Wonder Woman Villain that comes into my mind.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

My druthers? Ares and his children with Circe in the background for a first film. Circe with Cheetah as muscle in a second and a modified VIIILAINS INC. for the third with Cheetah, Giganta, Queen Clea, Dr. Psycho and Silver Swan.

 

[Dark Raven]

Ares would probably be the first villain, because it would look a bit of a cop out just to have WW fight another woman. They would want to show how powerful she is by going up against a powerhouse of a male. If they want secondary female villains, then that's fine.

I personally wouldn't only want Ares anyway as that keeps it too much in Greek mythology. WW needs to branch out, which is why she also needs villains like Cheetah, and Giganta for a battle that's a pure match of strength against strength.

What if they throw us for a loop and use Queen Clea? Off chance, sure, but that would help to tie in Atlantis.

Hades and Ares!

Baroness Paula Von Gunther with a WWII story.

 

[Jonwo]

I would say Ares for the first film followed by Circe and Cheetah for the sequel.

I've already mentioned that I think Daniel Craig could work as Ares, Circe has to be Eva Green and Cheetah I'd say either Jessica Chastain or Isla Fisher.

Barbara Minerva... way more interesting, her story and all that.. FTW

Wonder Woman kicking a mans ass... I'm all for it
Also...
Wouldn't be awesome to see Ares? I mean all the visual spectacle of all the different warriors of different eras. also if she defeats him and she BECOMES THE god OF WAR!!!!

Don't forget the new great villain of Wondy 'First Born'

 

[Gee]

The Circle

I love that story!

 

[luis4u]

ares the god of war

 

[BatmanVSuperman]

No Gunther fans?

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

If you updated her as a Neo-nazi hiding in plain sight and made her a servant of Ares or Circe... Sure, maybe.

 

[BatmanVSuperman]

I can dig that

Cheetah - Gugu Mbatha-Raw

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

That's what's cool about some of WW's foes. Some are rather dated but the history can be used as a jumping off point to make them work better in a modern context. Ares, Circe, Giganta, Cheetah, Silver Swan, Dr. Psycho... I do want to see them close to their more modern comic book versions. Queen Clea or Dr. Poison, Von Gunther... They can be overhauled with little fan outrage I think. Perez's version of Circe and Cheetah are a must, or at least a version close to them are to me. Re-make The White Magician ? Eh, I'll deal, especially if the can turn them into something spectacular.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Cheetah - Gugu Mbatha-Raw

That sir, is a great idea. Though it means making her the object of obsession to all the Furry types that fetishize Cheetara.

 

[BatmanVSuperman]

Hey Krypton forgot to say, kudos on the thread title

 

[DaddlerTheDalek]

ares the god of war

How could I forget him!? Ares would be Ideal!

 

[Mad Love]

I hope they go with the new 52 Olympians including Ares. They have more dimension and aren't straight up evil villains.

If they want a hardcore, power house evil villian, I would rather they use First Born instead of Ares. Besides, Ares isn't suppose to be a villain in Greek mythology and the concept of war is way more complex than making him all about violence and fighting.

 

[Loki882]

I also don't want to see Ares as the main villain in the first movie. If you want him to be a shadowing puppetmaster type, fine. But he's too big to waste on the first film. I'd like to see Circe be the mastermind villain (played by Eva Green), with another villain as the physical threat.

 

[Dark Raven]

What we don't need is another Elizabeth Hurley type character who works in a cosmetics/pharmaceutical company. That was a bad idea in both the WW pilot and the Catwoman movie where Sharon Stone had a similar role. No Veronica Cale or anyone like that at all!

 

[aNarcHy2day]

For anyone who has watched Nicholas Cage's Lord of War, I envision Veronica Cale as a similar Arms Dealer types who is laying grounds for a World War. She's obviously being played behind the scenes by Ares/ Circe. I would find such a version of Cale acceptable.
