The lasso looks kind of like a cable.

Love it. Its better than I had expected it to be, as good as I could have hoped for.
Gadot looks great, and I'm quite glad that everyone who has complained about how skinny she is can now eat their words. Why anyone would think she wouldnt go through the same sort of extensive weight/muscle training every other actor does for this kind of role baffles me.
Now all we need is a group shot.

It looks GREAT! I love it
I don't like that the lasso is silver, but other that, it looks great! \O/
Looks freaking amazing!
The only real complaint I have is that I would've liked some more color. The red should be "red-er" and the skirt should be "blue-er." But these are minor complaints at worst. She looks every inch like Wonder Woman.
I wouldn't worry too much about the color of the lasso. Even in her animated appearances, the lasso often looks duller and less impressive when she isn't actively using it. It's kind of been the idea for a while now that the lasso looks more like a normal rope until Diana activates its powers. So it may look like a normal thing right now. When she actually uses it? They may very well CG up some special effects to make it more impressive.
And Gal herself? Definitely not too skinny. She looks strong, athletic, and sexy. I couldn't ask for more out of a Wonder Woman actress.
Totally psyched for this. This movie is going to rock. And hopefully this is the dawning of a whole new age of popularity for the greatest woman in all of comics. Hopefully, Diana will once again lead the way and open the door for more female superhero movies as well. She opened the door to female-centric comic books almost 75 years ago. It's only right and proper that Diana gets to blaze the trail to Hollywood for female heroes as well.
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
--Lord Alfred Tennyson--
The costume looks great, the woman wearing it not so much.
Oh! I forgot to add some more praise!
The eagle crest on the breastplate? Awesome! I was worried that Hollywood costume designers might consider the eagle a little to "cheesy" or "impractical" to put into the movie. Glad to see this was not the case. It really adds that air of authenticity to the whole thing.
The belt? It seems a little big to me, but it also perfectly resembles her double "W" symbol. Again, I was almost sure that Hollywood would take one look at that belt and try to "modernize" it. Again, I'm glad to see I was wrong.
And Gal herself? Can we just talk about that facial expression? She looks fierce and battle-ready. Obviously, a still picture doesn't tell us much about her acting ability, but if she brings that intensity even most of the time? I'm quite confident that she'll do great.

It´s just sad that Lois Lane is going to be more gorgeous than WW...
