See like i said shes the only one who is just...unidentified super lady with weapons & armor. FOUR movies in and not one mention of this mysterious wonder woman myth. Wasnt bats a myth in bvs??
«Speaking generally, it is because of the desire of the tragic poets for the marvellous that so varied and inconsistent an account of Medea has been given out» (Diodorus Siculus, The Library of History [4.56.1])
I think it's pretty darn cool that Diana is never or rarely called the Wonder Woman in the movies. To me the movie title is a description of the character. She is a wonder woman. Being Diana to those who know her but a woman of mystery and wonder to everyone else seems like a great motif.
I don't want to go back and watch every Batman and Superman movie ever made, but I wonder if there weren't some where they didn't go by that name themselves--but might have had it put upon them afterwards. I know that Clark was never called the Superman for most of the run of SMALLVILLE. I gave up on GOTHAM early on, did little Bruce eventually get called the Bat-Man?
And it seems to me there's an established tradition in origin stories and other stories that the heroes never get the titles. Billy Batson in SHAZAM! never officially gets the name Shazam or Captain Marvel. In most of the Doctor Who shows, the Doctor is not called Doctor Who (although he is sometimes in the credits). Morpheus or Dream is rarely ever called the Sandman in the comic book that has that name. And given enough time and research, I bet I could come up with a long list of TV shows, books, movies, comics where this kind of thing happens.
I'd be perfectly happy if the Gal Gadot version of the Amazing Amazon is never called Wonder Woman by her peers in the movies. However, I expect this will happen in WONDER WOMAN 1984, as it suits the tone and the sensibility of the era.
If they had to call the Joker 'Jeremiah' on Gotham, I sincerely doubt they ever got the okay to call Batman 'Batman'. I could be wrong, but since he only appeared in the costume in the last seconds of the last episode, it wouldn't surprise me.
I guess that's not necessarily inaccurate but it's also hard to ignore the fact that the title is also supposed to be the characters' Superhero name.
There's a scene in the movie where Billy is trying to transfer his power to the other kids and says "say my name" with the name implicitly being "Shazam" but the kids instead say "Billy" .And it seems to me there's an established tradition in origin stories and other stories that the heroes never get the titles. Billy Batson in SHAZAM! never officially gets the name Shazam or Captain Marvel. In most of the Doctor Who shows, the Doctor is not called Doctor Who (although he is sometimes in the credits).

I believe Sameer was North African, perhaps Tunisian or Moroccan, where they speak French.
His words were, "madame, s'il vous plait, incroyable, magnifique." I just don't know if he's referring to Diana or the drinks he's serving to Steve and Diana. Given his fascination with Diana, what he'd just seen in Veld, and his constant flirtation with her, I'm thinking he was referring to Diana as an "incredible, magnificent, woman," or loosely, a "wonder woman".

Seems like Jenkins is confirming an Amazons spin-off for Wonder Woman that she will produce.

EDIT: Whoops! I just saw your post, Last Son of Krypton!
Wow. The question is who will direct it. If she isn't then who. But Geoff John also helped the Amazon movie cool. You guys think he will help with the three movie?
