yes all of DCEU films have performed well at the box office. just haters like to label them disastrous lol
Aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhnopleasenotthisagainaaaaaaaarrrrrrggggghhhhhh!

Decent looking trailer, but to be honest the trailers for the previous DCEU films have all looked fairly good. Some were even great. If the tone of the film is right it will do well. Chris Pine should lend a nice level or humour and irreverence. My slight concern is the apparent lack of a strong villian, though. Oh, and that Warner execs don't authorise another hack-job in the editing room.

I want this to be great but I won't hold my breath.
Trailer looks good but as pointed out by others already, they always do.

As with Doctor Strange, I thought Suicide Squad was well received?

The original live action Wonder Woman didn't look anything like Lynda Carter or the comics version.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHvtlWmlMFU
The Crosby series based its look of the Wonder Woman at the time when the original WW comic character was going through a phase of WW/Diana Prince following an era of modern pop fashion mixed with the martial arts movement called 'mod karate era' (1968-1973). There was a complete revamp of WW at this time, even the first (DC Comics) cover during the changeover has the original WW handing over her traditional red, gold and blue costume in favour of her new look.

Cathy was playing the ORIGINAL character, but not in her original outfit. The makers of that series wanted Cathy to wear the traditional look but DC Comics refused them, saying the series had to reflect the new image and character of WW in the current comics (they obviously thought at the time that the red, blue, gold costume was old fashioned and from now on, this is how WW would look indefinitely).
Diana Prince effectively became an Emma Peel type persona and when things got particularly tough, she transformed into that KarateGi suit during the martial arts trend, eg. Bruce Lee films.
But there's no doubting Cathy played the original WW/Diana character. The series even had the Steve Trevor love interest.

In the meantime, another nicely produced video from the Super Beat Down series, this time it's Wonder Woman Vs. Wolverine.
The action starts around 4 minutes in, not for the squeamish as it's quite brutal in parts, especially if you've ever had the misfortune of spearing yourself in the foot with a garden fork or stood on an upright nail.
Who will win?

DC/Warner should own the copy right to this. It's pretty much become their tag-line.

Haha exactly, so far they've not done Superman, Batman (although Ben Affleck did great with what he was given) or Suicide Squad well at all.

This movie does actually show more potential than any of those aforementioned movies, to it's credit, but I'm still going to be cautious going into it.
