I'd also like to give a shout out to the 2 or 3 goons with reading skills who realize this thread isn't about their personal opinions on comics but the OPs expert opinion on what she shouldn't be wearing and not offering a counter example of what she should be wearing.
Post the pic OP.

Is very snow-broth;
One who never feels
The wanton stings and
Motions of the sense



The whole movie should be more like a Betty Page bondage film.

Guys the costume is fine Zach Snyder is just incapable of filming without a sepia filter.

(edit)

vvv Yes I can see where the Giant WW on her belt and structured bodice like every wonder woman outfit ever would be confusing.

It's okay, but it just doesn't look like Wonder Woman at all. More like some kind of gladiator.

I wouldn't have given her heels and I would have given her some leggings and made the armor go down a little bit to actually be helpful as armor.

Whatever the character was created in a really sexist time there's no reason we can't update it a little bit.

In the end they're just loving themselves out of money though because they aren't attracting the women demographic as much as they could be. A wonder woman movie with a good empowered wonder woman in a not stripper outfit could do really well.

The Avengers is like the 3rd grossing movie of all time and I don't think Scarlet Johanson in a boobtacular jumpsuit hurt their sales very much.

The highest grossing movie was Avatar and that had a whole race of giant blue sex elves. In the 2nd highest, Titanic, there's that whole Kate Winslet scene.

Actually it couldn't. That's why the don't do it. SJW money doesn't amount to poo poo. Same thing applies to the men. Notice how Hugh Jackman gets more steroid-addled and less hairy every time he plays Wolverine?

I remember people talking about Zack Snyder back when 300 came out and people were saying how he's such a great visual director and oh wow I wonder what the deeper implications of all these edits and visual decisions means but then in an interview he revealed his thought process to be just what he thinks would look really cool and that's how he informs his directing.

zack snyder is a grown-up version of the kind of kid who mashed his toy soldiers/action figures together but made really hosed up narratives surrounding it, with implications he might pull the wings off flies or torture squirrels out behind the shed

She shouldn't expose so much skin if she's all about melee fighting. Maybe she could wear a jacket that could provide more protection for her arms than running around sleeveless.

Also why does she have to wear a skirt? It's tyool 2014 ffs give the woman a pair of pants like the other two.

Snyder does female characters with about the subtlety and development as Frank Miller and I really don't know why anyone is surprised by this. Did none of you see or at least hear about Sucker Punch?
