Like I mentioned in my edit, this train of thought is just gonna derail itself. "Portray the comics down to a T." That means, keep Wonder Woman just as powerful, smart, and resourceful as she was portrayed in comics, which has been equal to and at times surpassed her male counterparts(she's beaten Superman before). That IS feminist because feminism is rooted in equality between males and females. To say "Keep Wonder Woman's portrayal down to a T" is contradictory to "Keep feminism away from Wonder Woman's portrayal."I absolutely agree. And if it comes down to it being a feminist angenda, it's going to blow up in their face because no one cares. We just want a watch movie that portrays the comics down to the T.
The films and TV series never portray any characters as able as in canon.Like I mentioned in my edit, this train of thought is just gonna derail itself. "Portray the comics down to a T."

True. I'd they stick to the original concept then that's cool, but don't emasculated men in the process like some films have been doing in a subtle manner.I mean, that kinda obviously goes without saying. She's gonna be fighting alongside Batman and Superman, the latter of whom she's matched and outright beaten in various incarnations of their characters.
Edit: "If you're gonna do a Wonder Woman film, don't have a feminist agenda underlying it." Then it wouldn't be a Wonder Woman film. The very essence of her character, a powerful woman who can match her male counterparts in skill, ability, and resources who hails from a thriving kingdom created and occupied by women, is directly tied to feminism, regardless of if it was intentional by the writers or not. To go out of your way to avoid feminism underlying Wonder Woman's character, abilities, and experiences will no longer make her Wonder Woman.

And if they left all that out the Internet community would rage at how it isn't an accurate betrayal of Wonder Woman. Some people just aren't happy unless they are complaining I guess.I'm in support of it. However, if this movie is going to have some popular feminist and radical feminist tropes and clichés, the Internet is going to pounce and have a field day with how bad it will turn out.
You turning it into a feminism issue. :| That it the whole point. This is not about that. It's a movie adapting a comic.Like I mentioned in my edit, this train of thought is just gonna derail itself.

Proportionately, they have. Superman and Wonder Woman aren't crushing planets in films and TV, but they're still around the same strength regardless.The films and TV series never portray any characters as able as in canon.
Examples? I'm curious as to what cases have had men emasculated. I ask cuz most of the time men feel emasculated by the progress of women is because masculinity, especially in the western world is rooted in insecurity and fragility.True. I'd they stick to the original concept then that's cool, but don't emasculated men in the process like some films have been doing in a subtle manner.
I...I just don't know what to say to this. I don't know what baffles me more. You thinking I turned a thread about feminism and Wonder Woman into a feminist thread, aka turning a thread into what the thread was created about, or your inability to comprehend that the point of my post was that Wonder Woman is inherently a feminist character, so doing her justice means you HAVE to embrace feminism. I mean...just...what do you say?You turning it into a feminism issue. :| That it the whole point. This is not about that. It's a movie adapting a comic.
Some people like Tumblr and Reddit :lolAnd if they left all that out the Internet community would rage at how it isn't an accurate betrayal of Wonder Woman. Some people just aren't happy unless they are complaining I guess.
She should be more buffed but other than that she coolThey could've picked a better Wonder Women in my opinion.
She was more into empowering woman. I don't think she [embody] the feminist agenda.Examples? I'm curious as to what cases have had men emasculated.
