who is tired of the movie makers stalling wonder woman

Editing down a duplicate post.

I see the logic of 1. Whedon is a good writer of "strong women" 2. Wonder Woman is a "strong woman" 3. Therefore: Whedon will be a good writer for WW. But, I think that's flawed logic in that there are many different types of "strong women" and Buffy and WW aren't analogous types, IMO.

I could even see a Whedon WW script being good. But, it wouldn't necessarily be a WW that I'd appreciate.

I am a huge Angelina Jolie fan, but I think I would much rather see a more relatively unknown (like a pre-Begins Bale type popularity) actress playing Wonder Woman. I think Angelina would make a kick-as* Circe. I would love to see her in that role. I just can't believe that she's never a played an actual bad-girl. I think it's about time that she starred as an out-right villainess. She would do great.

If she acted just like she did in Beowulf I could totally get behind her as Circe.

No he's not a bad writer of sci-fi. But he isn't perfect. He has no noteworthy record with adaptations either. Can he preserve another author's "voice" is an open question with Whedon.

And his WW outline is great in the same way that Miller's Justice League would have been awful. It's a matter of faith, not evidence. Nobody's done an in depth review of the outline.

The only person I have heard quoted as having read it and loved it was Bruce Timm, when preparing the WW animated feature. In fact he said "can't we just animate this?" but WB told him no for some reason. The animated WW movie often feels very Whedon-y, especially all the humor coming from Steve Trevor. Of course, Nathan Fillion's delivery makes it feel even more like something from mind of Joss Whedon.

Whedon's live-action WW wouldn't have been a quarter as good as the animated film.

If the people who actually MADE that animated film wanted to do an animated version of the Whedon script, what makes you so sure? Believe me, I love the animated version too, but it isn't like you probably have any insider knowledge. And if you do, please share.
