First Details About New "Wonder Woman" TV SeriesPosted: November 30th, 2012 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
|
  Warner Bros Television and CW are moving forward with its upcoming Wonder Woman TV series, called "Amazon," which will tell the character's origin story. The studio has already started searching for an actress, who will play the young Amazonian before she becomes a warrior princess with super powers. The script is being written by Allan Heinberg ("Wonder Woman" comic books, "Gilmore Girls").
The name of the character will be Iris, not Diana. And the studio is looking for actresses in their mid-20s and 5'8 or taller. Below is the description agencies have received.
Description: She comes from a remote, secluded country and until now has spent most of her life as a soldier and a leader on the battlefield. Because of relentless brutality of her life at home, Iris looks at our world with absolute awe and astonishment. She's delighted and just as often horrified by the aspects of everyday life that we take for granted: skyscrapers, traffic, ice cream. It's all new and fascinating and sometimes slightly troubling to her.
Iris is completely unschooled in our world, our culture, our customs. And she's completely inexperienced at interpersonal relationships. She has no social filter and tends to do and say exactly what's on her mind at all times. She can tell when you're lying to her. And she doesn't have time or patience for politics or tact because she's too busy trying to experience everything our world has to offer. Iris is a fierce warrior with the innocent heart of a romantic and she will fight to the death to make the world safe for innocents and true romantics everywhere.

This is like the time they changed Bruce Banner's name on the (Hulk) television show to David Banner because Bruce sounded 'gay' supposedly.
Here its probably an equally silly reason like wanting to avoid similarity with Princess Diana or something illogical like that.

So is she Wonder Woman or not?
I've always liked how they portrayed WW on the Justice League animated show. She is kind of a fish out of water like this new concept, but she really doesn't give a sh*t especially about romance (other than her weird occasional flirt with Batman). The only way I could see them pulling off this kind of WW in live action would be to make a reality show about Hope Solo and her nutty life. Seriously, she has no filter or social skills, she's always looking for a fight, her idea of romance is a bare knuckle brawl with her fiance the day before their wedding, and she totally looks the part (super fit gorgeous 6 foot brunette with a nasty attitude). She's a perfect fit!

lol. I love DCs strategy here. Pump/pimp the worst characters onto television so when it comes time to throw them onto the big screen, audiences are already softened up to the idea.
Clever.
And it makes sense why they did Smallville instead of making a Superman movie, even though they eventually made one years later, one that sucked and doomed Donner's vision to the outhouse of cinematic history.
And by clever I mean: stupid, convoluted, and likely to fail. Clever to them. Idiotic to everyone else.

That's what Lou Ferrigno said. Said Bruce was a gayish name so they changed it to David, although I thunk they later said something to the effect that Bruce was Banner's middle or first name and the character went with David for whatever reason.

I love how the description of the character reads like a desperate monologue written by a fat spinster with twenty cats looking for love on Plenty of Fish.
Not sh*t was said about the show's actual plot, story or content.
But the bitch loves roses, long walks on the beach and twiddling her twat to Diane Ross.
Awesome.

"who will play the young Amazonian before she becomes a warrior princess with super powers."
Then how is she an Amazonian? So she's in her twenties and she hasn't developed her powers? So how the f*ck is she an Amazonian, because that would mean she's from the mythical land of Amazon, per the character's origin, and I doubt the women over there develop their abilities after menopause.
f*cking idiotic.

Guess Aquaman gets the name Slide, for obvious reasons.

The reads as f*cking horrible!!!
She comes from a remote, secluded country (so... not an island anymore) and until now has spent most of her life as a soldier and a leader on the battlefield (battling WHO? I thought they were secluded? Civil unrest maybe?!).
They've change her name.
She doesn't have powers until a certain age(?), are they a birthday gift then?
mink - already commented on the Amazon(ian) confusion for me (nice job).
This has cluster-f*ck written ALL over it.
Seriously... what... THE f*ck?!?!?
Hawt chick with jiggling tits. OK... go that route. I still won't watch it. I'll have better show up at my door carrying wine and a wet p*ssy.
Wonder Woman show... FAIL!

She's related to NYC's Nanny Bloomberg, Ranger.
Can't you see a liberal's hand prints all over the synopsis?
And no, I'm not trying to politicize this, but come on, you know this Iris bitch will live in a big blue (no pun intended) city like NYC, and where else would a woman not kill for Ben and Jerrys? where else would ice cream get the same level of demerits as traffic and skyscrapers?

I think we all know WW is close to failing even with a formula 100x's better than this one proposed. This new rendition is as clever as screen doors on a submarine.

Y'know... I don't even mind the teenage animated version of Iron Man. They can do a lot of different things from different angles, and it works.
Do the same with WW here. Lose the invisible plane, and the WWII time-frame, go animated and let the chips fall where they may.
Making this proposed f*cked-up, re-worked, live version sucks more than Lindsay in the backseat of a cop car.

Whatever the case, most name changes seem to be made for no legitimate purpose.

"In the comic book, the Hulk's alter ego is named Bruce Banner (although his full name is Robert Bruce Banner). For the show, however, the character was renamed David, in part because the name "Bruce" was considered too homosexual. A contributing factor was series producer Kenneth Johnson's dislike for alliterative names, which are typically used in comic books; Johnson decided that "David" (his son's name) was more solid."

Avirex writes: on November 30th, 2012 at 6:19:03 PM
Yeah, I remember hearing that on one of the DVD's or something. Fortunately though the show was decent enough that it made the odd name change not too distracting. Not sure if this Wonder Woman show will be the same case.

Uh, no. I seriously doubt this Wonder Woman show will be in the same galaxy as the original Hulk program, which was pretty good television, for the time, and even now.
I mean, would you rather watch that, or Jersey Shore?

I find CW's "Arrow" to be the 2nd best show on that channel (not saying much, mind you) behind Supernatural, so I had high hopes after reading the title, hopes that quickly plummeted after reading the synopsis.
First off, why in the f*ck are you changing Wonder Woman's name? You might as well just call her Isis, and remake that old "Oh Mighty Isis" show that would come on after (or was it before?) the 80's Wonder Woman show.
Also "She will fight to the death to make the world safe for innocents and true romantics everywhere"? I get the innocents, but what in the sh*t does "safe for true romantics" mean? Is she going to kill douchebags who cheat on their spouses?

So, that Wonder Woman show they tried last year or whenever failed before it ever even got to the screen. The logical next step? Make a new show about a part of her life no one cares about.
So her name's not Diana, she has no powers, she comes from a secluded country instead of an island, where she's a fierce soldier. Are they sure this is even Wonder Woman?
Why does Hollywood feel the need, when telling origin stories, to change big things about the origin?
Not that I think it matters, because this is going to fail either way.
And I'll be honest, I've never seen of the comic books this guy has done, but just the fact that he did Gilmore Girls is enough for me. Is this shoe also going to have ridiculous storylines and even more ridiculous, rapid fire, pretentious one-liner filled dialogue? GTFO
This is crap. Thankfully no one will ever see it.
