I want to hurt whoever thought this was a good idea and torture the idiot who greenlighted it. This is what franchise endears are made of. Sort of how like the DCAU got kids back into superhereoes? This is the opposite, this is going to make WW looks bad and no justice will be done for her, at all. Why can't they make a continuation based off of the animated movie? That was a good movie.

I Am The Walrus
This reads like a really bad remake of Iron Man 2, a film already hampered by too much comedic moments, unneeded cameos and too many things going on once.
My suggestion: bring in David S. Goyer to completely rewrite the script, tone down the comedy and add in more familiar elements from the comic book.

At this rate the public will never take WW seriously.
Rawr!
David E. Kelley was never the right person to write Wonder Woman. This show could be really great in someone else's hands (if only the studios had gone through with Joss' adaptation), and I really like Adrianne Palicki for the role, but if Kelley's godawful pilot sets the tone, this will be an egregious abuse of the license on a large enough scale that it could even damage the character's credibility in other media.
The Final ECW Champion
If its funny then how is it an unneeded comedic moment? The problem with the Ironman movies, if any, was lack of a satisfying final showdown, however justified. True, things happening that way did make sense, but why should plot get in the way of explosive flying armor suit battles? Can't you save the whole "outsmart the villain with improvised weapon" until after a satisfying amount of missiles have knocked armor suits through a pleasurable number of walls? That's why the Dark Knight was superior. Batman got in a good climatic brawl, the meaty stuff critics think is important was not allowed to get in the way of the good old fashion super hero fight fans wanted.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to when they find an actress to play Wonder Woman who has a semi heroic
build
. Maybe the costume will give the illusion of an asskicker like Batman's did, but I'm doubtful.

Untitled Power Rangers Story
Good casting but Hollywood is bad at remakes as we saw with Knight Rider, The Bionic Woman and others. The writers and producers have the character names but try and be cute and miss what the show was about.
From what I am reading, if true the plot sounds stupid. I hope its not but we will see.

Wonder Woman has strength far surpassing anything a human being can achieve in Real Life. I think it's fair to say that her strength has little if nothing to do with muscle mass.
I Am The Walrus
@ Cider, it's an unneeded comedic moment when it serves nothing to the plot or insults the intelligence of the viewers. Did we need Hammer's robots to be called Hammeroids? Did we need a fight scene in Tony's house scored by DJ AM? Did we need a random cameo by Bill O'Reilly trashing Pepper? No. They distracted from the plot and the film suffers for it.

The fight at Tony's place was unncessary? Didn't that kinda lead directly into Rhody stealing one of the suits and becoming War Machine? I'd call that pretty important.
I Am The Walrus
They could have done it in a way that didn't distract from the plot and turn it into a comedy. Also, it was hinted as far back as the first film (remember Rhodey glancing at the suit and then saying "Next time?"). This is one good reason why you don't give a comic book adaptation to a comedy writer.

The Final ECW Champion
Maybe not, but formal training and regular work would suggest her muscles would look more developed, the guy playing Spider-man looked the part and he didn't even need to.
It could be worse, they did find someone who was tall enough to portray Wonder Woman, I'll credit them with that.

Right isn't Wonder Woman supposed to be at least 6 foot?
I Am The Walrus
They got that aspect right. Palacki is 5'11".

I don't want to judge before due.

Necro time. Here's a photo of the costume.
Well...it could be worse, I guess.
Rabbit Season
The latex trousers look terribly silly.
You're an ad hominem attack!

The costume, yes. The premise... not so much.
The Fastest Man Alive
...it looks like a Halloween costume.

Pika is the bombchu!
Ugh. First, the star on the eagle is just dumb. Second, absolutely nothing (except maybe the bracelets and tiara) should be shiny. Third, WW's boots are red. Making them blue is pointless and pretty blatant "we care nothing about the history or tradition of this character, we just want to sucker in the Lowest Common Denominator."
mudshark: I don't expect Nate to make sense, really.

It looks like a monster-size bowl of stupid, with a bottomless mug of stupid and a side of either endless stupid or the all-you-can-eat stupid bar.
Don't you try anything, you baked good you.
What's the symbolism behind the red boots?
This... does not instill me with hope.
