Every girl or woman has a role model; fangirls are no different. Female superheroes consistently make it onto the list. They are superior role models because they fight for what they believe in, never letting the male superheroes one up them. But we’ve still yet to see a good heroine on film.
Wonder Woman is one of the first female superheroes, and certainly a prototype for many that followed, much in the same way as Superman was for male heroes. Yet Wonder Woman has only been portrayed twice as live-action since her introduction in the comics in 1941. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice will be the first film since those, in which Wonder Woman will appear. She will be played by Gal Gadot.
Everyone is excited to see her on the big screen, and see if she will steal the whole film; which I think may happen. Here are 6 reasons why I think Wonder Woman may steal Batman v Superman.
6. Diana Prince
Every fangirl and fanboy has a favorite female superhero, and Diana Prince is most likely on top of any DC fan’s list. She is a wealthy, strong, independent woman. She is sexy, which is to be expected in this modern world of superhero films; but hopefully DC will not exploit that in a womanizing way. It looks to me, that she will flirt with Bruce Wayne and annoy him, then appear out of nowhere to help save both Batman and Superman.
5. Amazon
As she is an Amazon, she is extremely beautiful and has a mystique about her. Plus, she can kick your ass if you cross her! Now, I’m not saying that Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck aren’t sexy, because oh yes they are. And both suit their roles perfectly. The fact that wonder woman is sexy shouldn’t undermine the fact that she is a total badass and will beat you down if you cross her, but also she will protect you if she needs to, because she is a superhero.
Amazon’s are Ancient Greek mythical warrior women, so yeah, don’t fight her… She knows how to manipulate and fight for survival, and more often than not, she wins. That means she will win against Batman and Superman, and help defeat a common enemy in Lex Luthor and you know…. Justice League time!!
4. Founding Member
Everyone knows the big DC group of heroes; Wonder Woman, Batman and Superman are members of it. This is the Justice League. This is what the name of the film refers to: Dawn of Justice. Wonder Woman is the pillar of the Justice League because she is the only woman in it, and more importantly, a founding member. The other founding members of the Justice League are Superman, Batman, Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), Flash (Barry Allen), Aquaman and the Martian Manhunter, respectively. These superheroes are all epic in their own way, yet Wonder Woman is the only female member.
This is important as, if we are right to expect, she is going to unite Batman and Superman, and found the Justice League. This means she’ll steal the whole film. Hello?! Starting the Justice League and put Batman and Superman in their place?! How can she not take the spot light?! From the trailer, it looks like she gets in the way of the fight, saves their asses from Lex Luthor, and and makes Batman and Superman fight together. At this point, she joins them up and forms the Justice League. OR it could be that they fight her too, and then she makes them see sense by using her powers. Either way, she wins and steals the film because she is a genius.
3. Badass
Wonder Woman is badass. There I said it. Not that Batman or Superman aren’t, but she can fight and hold her own. According to the official DC Comics website, she has a number of helpful powers: super strength, invulnerability, flight, combat skill, combat strategy, superhuman agility, healing factor and magic weaponry… but I will get into that later.
All of these attributes add up to the fact that Wonder Woman will be able to keep up with Batman and Superman. I think that they will struggle to keep up with her powers. Many powers that she has are the same as Superman, even though he is an alien; but she is a goddess, which means she has had more time to hone her powers.
I have a feeling that both Superman and Wonder Woman will have equal power and strength, and will make a good team. We all know Batman does not have any powers. But he is Batman after all, so he has the fighting style and the skill to match Wonder Woman. Even though both Superman and Batman pretty much have equal powers to Wonder Woman, I think she will outshine and out fight them. She will win for sure.
2. Outfit
I think she has a better outfit than batman and superman put together. I mean, come o,n she has a shield and that is awesome! Her outfit is the same style as the comics, she wears a corset type thing with a headband and bracelets. It is a gold and brown mixture, like old style leather armour, which looks pretty damn cool if you ask me. However, it is not like the red, white and blue of the comics and TV series, which may anger some people. Those are typically associated with Wonder Woman and a lot of peopel want this to be close to the comics. Yet, sometimes outfits need to be modernised; they need to fit in with the universe that DC has set itself in, which her outfit in Dawn of Justice does in my opinion.
1. WONDER WOMAN
She is WONDER WOMAN. It is as simple as that, its in the name…
Yes Batman and Superman are epic in their own right but Wonder Woman is Wonder Woman; there is nothing else to say on that.
She will most definitely steal Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, like she has stolen the trailers by just being in them for a few seconds. In those trailers, she saves both of our heroes and flirts with Bruce Wayne. To me, that means she is awesome and will be a hit with the fans. Me included.
Now we can all dust off our Wonder Woman costumes and wear them with pride, but are you excited to see what Wonder Woman could bring to Batman v Superman? Let us know in the comments section or send us a Tweet!
