Underwear or Skirt in the WW movie?

[terry78]

Now this looks somewhat better than a thong, but you just couldn't have too many ass shots in the movie because it's still riding up a tad. Basically it would be like Mystique having her own movie, and you basically saw every nook and cranny of her junk in X2 and 3.

"Underwear." Wonder Woman's look is iconic, and changing it will only annoy the masses of casual moviegoers who already have an image in their heads of the way the character is supposed to look.

I'd like to see a WW costume with the "underwear" look, but I'm not sure that that look is iconic (though Linda Carter's WW did wear the "underwear" and is probably top in the memory of the general public, but then so is Adam West's Batman). The bottom of WW's costume/uniform has been through some changes over the years. The earliest versions did have a skirt:

While later versions had tights/shorts:

And now we've got the "underwear" version:

If it was up to me, I'd go with the Adam Hughes overall look, costume, build of actress, but with bigger bracelets, something like John Byrne drew

but that's not underwear is it?

She's wearing Wonder Pumps!

this is what i meant by the battle skirt with star studs and the star-spangled panties/ boyshorts underneath:

Hmmm, the panties shape her booty and leave some of it hanging out... But when she takes a leap the wind can lift her skirt... hmmm....

 

[Lex Luthor]

I'm expecting something of a battle skirt.

The underwear would be cool, but I dont see Joss going with that kind of look for his interpretation of Wonder Woman. Either way, Morena Baccarin would look hot.

Skirt > Underwear

OH NOEZ! ! Woman withz expozed thighs. Gets an R RATING. MOVIE WILL TANK OMGZ! ! !! !!

Please.

You don't see very many "R" rated films that are hits nowadays do you?

 

[igotatromboner]

Why not both gentlemen? First we get WW in a skirt. Have Whedon write jokes about the impracticalities of a skirt with bronze armor like qualities in the modern world. Then somewhere in the film have it "torn off" and we get the hot, and slightly ****tier, WW kicking ass with a ragin CT going on.

 

[Clouseau]

i'd settle for boy shorts over a miniskirt anyday, when it comes to Wonder Woman... but i also wouldn't mind something skimpier... not a thong, though... can't see that lending itself greatly to action scenes... not the kind of action scenes we'd expect from a Wonder Woman movie, at least...

these are kinda like what i had in mind...

but rather than trying to describe what it is i like, maybe it's easier to point out the things i hope i never see again...

 

[The ?uestion]

How about she wears nothing at all?! then we can have the pleasure of seeing her walk naked all over Themiskera. (sp)?

Did you even understand what Fused was saying? He was making fun of your prudishness, and obviously DOESN'T think that showing WW's legs (something that CARTOONS have been able to get away with) will get the film an R rating. Again, I have to question your perception of reality, because it seems like you're living in a different century than everyone else.

So the WW costume has been through some changes. That still doesn't change what WW's iconic look is. For most of her history, she's had the "underwear" shorts. That's what people think when they think of WW. And giving her a less sexy costume WILL turn away some of the horny male demographic.

There is nothing to gain from changing her costume (except perhaps appealing to the prudish fundamentalist demographic, and they STILL wouldn't see this movie), but there is something to lose.

Hey, I'm not being prudish, I'm just stating the obvious. Nowadays, a film with anything outside of a PG-13 rating is a looser at the boxoffice. If Wonder Woman wears the panties in the film you will be very disappointed, because she will be wearing panythose under them or you will be able to count the amount of time you see her dressed like that in it in minutes (not hours). And your idea of what I think Wonder Woman should look like is way off what I was thinking. Next time you could just ask me what my thoughts are on a costume design and I'll tell you myself.

You're not stating the obvious, your talking about your delusions. "Underwear"/boy shorts are NOT an R rating risk. They're not even close. The average moviegoer has no problem with WW's iconic look.

You know, when everybody is making fun of your prudish posts, maybe, just MAYBE your views on what society considers obscene clothing are wrong.

And your idea of what I think Wonder Woman should look like is way off what I was thinking. Next time you could just ask me what my thoughts are on a costume design and I'll tell you myself.

You do understand what exxagerations/jokes are, right?

That is as comedic as it is tragic.

Um... dude... they could totally get away with Wonder Woman wearing panties throughout the whole movie, and still keep it PG-13. It's basically a bikini bottom, and you can show those on PG/TV-14 television without the FCC cracking down.

It's not the 1970s, anymore. They don't have to slap satin tights and granny panties on Wonder Woman to make her presentable to today's audiences.

Funny! Harsh, but funny!

I reckon stick to the classic look, and just hope and pray the actress who fills that costume does a credible performance.

Jessica Simpson wore the Dasy Dukes without hose and look where it got that movie (Dukes of Hazzard). The film was critisized for not being authentic.

Are you saying that the film was criticized because Jessica Simpson wasn't wearing pantyhose, or are you saying two statements that might not be connected? Because the only person I remember complaining about Simpson's shorts was the guy who played the original Cooter.

Manic, I guess that was not the only reason, but the fact that Simpson wasn't wearing panty hose was one of them. Oh and not only was Ben Jones (the original Cooter Davenport) in opposition to the film, but so was Tom Wopat (the original Luke duke). At one time there were a group of DoH fans that criticized the film for its portrayal of Dasy Duke without panty hose. Additionally there were fans (more than likely orchestrated by Jones) who also protested the film, and there was also a controversy over the display of the stars and bars on the General Lee (and this is not to mention the negative reviews from the critics). In any case the use of the Dasy Dukes without hose certainly didn't help the film after the first weekend. If you want Wonder Woman to wear panties, I think you will be in for that type of trouble and that type of response at the boxoffice.

Boyshorts would work best. We need something close to the iconic WW costume that reminds casual viewers of the TV show and is contemporary enough so fans will recognize her. THe changes to the Superman Returns costume and the bad script messed up a sure thing, changing WW's suit from anything but the c
