Oh ok. I tried:confused:

She should look ok with the right hair coloring.

In that gown, in that pose, I would still be terrified to fight her, regardless of hair color. Presence is everything.

There's a difference between "sexy" and "sexualized."

When the character is named for the color of her hair it would be silly not to try to color it.

Unless she now gets her name from the blood she's shed or for wearing red clothes?
[QUOTE=Zauriel;5525962]Well, Christopher Sleeve built his body and trained his muscles when he was hired to play Superman.
They cast a bodybuilder with very little acting experience into the Conan role. Conan was Arnold Schwarzenegger's first leading role. He only starred in one film prior to the Conan movie.[/QUOTE]
I thought his first leading role was Hercules in the 1970 released movie Hercules in New York

Does anyone really want to remember that?:(
[QUOTE=OopsIdiditagain;5526180]"Darkskinned"? She's literally whitepassing.

yeah....she is not at all darkskinned
she's a lot lighter than I am, and I have light brown skin with golden overtone
I have slightly more SubSaharan African ancestry that she has
I am a little over half SubSaharan African
she looks far more European than SubSaharan African
her mother is Norwegian, and her father is Nigerian

FYI, Frank Thorne, who drew Red Sonja's 1st series for Marvel, passed away just last month. He was 90. RIP.
Not all of the character's appearances in comics have used the Chainmail Bikini design. In her first appearance and in some of the later Dynamite Comics series had the character in a kind of mail shirt. The 80's Marvel series gave her a Xena like tunic.
The character has had a number of different looks.
Not many, but there are a couple.

The ting with the blood is the best idea. You should propose that.

She has the piercing eyes. If they don't dye her hair or give her a wig they're just setting her up for controversy.
[QUOTE=Panic;5526301]The usual complaint I see for action-females is that they don't look strong enough, and though I don't usually feel that criticism is valid bearing in mind it's supposed to be a fantasy anyway,[/QUOTE]I think it is still important that the fight scenes are not breaking the suspense of disbelieve, but I think that apparat from the build of the actress also the fight choreography plays a role here.

"Why is she called Red Sonja? He hair is not red. She wears no red insignia."
"She bathes in the blood of her enemies."
*cue red band montage of her slicing and dicing*
I could get behind that.
