ADRIANNE PALICKI DRESSED AS NEW WONDER WOMAN!!!!

Interesting Tidbit: you have to be very careful about "shiny" things when shooting in HD because it can cause light "pluming." They were very careful making the bustier and forearm guards more matte so the pants are a bit of a surprise. They might change or the shine really might be a function of the studio photography lights, poor photography, etc rather than the costume. Makeup for still versus video also tends to be different.

There is hope.

[I'm not a fan of the entire "fail/epic fail" thing either - nothing constructive about it.]

Yep, it´s shinning too much, but damn, its the first image. And it is SO MUCH better than some generic black outfit A La Smallville

let's see if this works

I had some time to visit some other sites today to see what most people are saying about this new costume.

To put it mildly, let's hope the people responsible for bringing WW back to TV do not have internet access. There are some really mean-spirited people on the internet and they are out in full force concerning this.

I don't mind people having opinions of course, but what I can't stand are those people who have to convince you that they are right and there is no possible way that you could have a differing opinion than them. It really seems like their head might explode at some point if they don't get their way.

The costume is fine in my opinion. Sure, it could use a few changes here and there but that is no reason to act like the world is ending because we are not going back to the '70s costume.

The funniest comment I've seen, although a bit mean, was something to the effect of "above the belt, it's great, but below the belt it looks like a Smurf exploded." I actually like it myself, although I could do without all the seams on the top.

Not sexy. I don't like it. I'd rather seeing her naked legs.

Internet commenters: Hate now. Fap later.

I'm just glad they didn't put her in a black overcoat like the way everything was going. I've seen lots of fanboys / middle aged men saying that they won't watch it because of this costume. Estupido. They have to appeal to the broadest possible tastes for this TV show to last not merely the superheroine genre fans like us who probably number about 10,000 in English speaking territories.

I like it, hot girl in bright sexy costume, yeah the boots could be red or she could have been bare-legged etc, but it's not bad.

I can get used to the costume. But I absolutely love Adrianne as Wonder Woman! She's certainly got the look.

Besides, we don't even know if that's the final costume. Could have been just a pic from a test shoot, leaked to the net for feedback.

just sayin......

I'd have to say that the costume looks pretty good to me. Far better looking than I was fearing. Perhaps it could have been better, but there's nothing so wrong with it to my mind.

The NEW Wonderwoman costume is beginging to grow on me. The tight sweatpants look is verry unassuming and functional, verry AMAZON. I'ts just revaling enough to be suggestive "in our male pig minds" but not in the least "exploitive".
As a leg man, I sometimes find pants exighting, like in the 9 sesons of The X-Files, I could imagine agent Scully annyway I wanted to, sometimes with the long wirey legs of a dancer, othertimes with the smooth powerfull scullcrushers of a off season female body builder.
I guess I like the pants, they make for fammaly friendly female empowerment, and the secret saucey fun for folks like my self.

Nice compermise I would say.

Be positive!?

But how to be positive with such a mess! And what a mess!
There is one thing I don't understand : I heard everyone saying that this Wonder Woman's costume is supposed to be a compromise, but what compromise ??!!
Just watch in Smallville : Black Canary's costume is sexy as hell, Maxima was very sexy too, there was no compromise !
So stop talking nonsense : don't make me believe that the writers have to compromise for prime time!

It seems that no one can make you believe anything.

First, how can you deem this new show a "mess" when you have not seen one second of film?

Second, do you really think that Wonder Woman's star spangled bathing suit costume is going to work in prime time here in 2011?

Hey, I'm a guy and I would love to see it but I understand the need to modernize it (i.e. tone it down) in order to sell it to viewers and, most importantly, advertisers.

This is the compromise, the top of the costume is basically the same as the "traditional" costume while the bottom was changed to more like what is in the current comics. What's wrong with that?

Third, who cares what Smallville has done? It has no relevance to Wonder Woman's TV show.

I just can't stand people that whine about stuff before they have even seen the final product. I read somewhere that she might have several different costumes during the course of the show but I have no idea if that is true or not. If so, great! If not, no biggie, I'll survive.

What's really going to make this show is the writing. If it sucks, then, after it airs, I'll be on here with you calling for its cancellation. Until then, I'm just going with the flow...

100% agree with jdrock24. When I first saw that a new Wonder Woman had been announced, I was head over heels excited. And then I find out that people are complaining that they're going to ruin it when all we had were speculations that she would be dressed in a leather jacket.

How spoiled do you have to be to complain about THAT?!

I'm hoping that she will have a special tropical beach outfit for when she visits say Paradise Island, as opposed to her usual "Work" outfit.

Wow, this is such a hot point topic among our community; I guess I'll throw my 2 cents.

I'm not entirely thrilled about the costume or casting; however, I am glad that WW is returning. I love the top, but the bottom is not great - at least they changed the boots back to red. Yes, she kinda has a flat bottom (not to my liking) but finding a 5'11" hottie that can act better than the Tannit Phoenix audition tape is worth something. I didn't particularly dig her appearance on Smallville as Kara v.1, I still liked the fact she was there, despite not being the perfect vision I had in my head, much like Lara Vandervufferningsstlkjer as Kara v.2. I did eventually fall for LV as I am sure I will like AP as WW - who will be the focus.

I, like most here, don't like the idea of David E. Kelly taking this, but I refuse to buy into or out of this series based on a bunch of production stills and rough IPhone vids without post production.
I will buy stock in this series having some absolute horrible bull sh%t and some awesomely kick ass bad assery.

I'll split the difference and DVR every episode and watch until its as horrible as the cynics prophetically hypothesize it will be.
Until then, call me "Mr. Benefit of the Doubt Because I Really Want Wonder Woman to Reappear".
No, really, I f&#@ing want a WW feature and/or series.
AND I WANT A SUPERGIRL SMALLVILLE SPINOFF!!!
NEXT..... bring me a Caitlin Fairchild series and/or movie (cuz I like redheads).
'Nuff said.

You're right jdrock24. But I don't deem the show, I'm just only complaining about the actress choice for playing Wonder Woman. For me, Wonder Woman is the symbol of femininity and Adrianne Palicki is too androgynous, she has not enough breast, not enough butt, not enough curves to play Wonder Woman.
Concerning my reference to Smallville, I just wanted to demonstrate that sexy Superwomen could go on prime time.

I agree with Artnico about the costume. However, the aesthetics of the costume is subjective. Personally, I'd prefer a skimpier old-style costume with thigh-highs, but that's just me!

I think Adrianne is nearly perfect and the biggest reason for that is her smile. Lynda Carter's body wasn't what did it for me back in the day, it was the way she smiled and Adrianne has a great smile.
