    Default Wonder Woman in Justice League vs. The Fatal Five (Spoilers!)

    Did anyone watch this movie yet?

    I saw it yesterday and... I really didn't like Wonder Woman's portrayal. I hate to be one of those, but that sword looked hideous and out-of-place just hanging on her waist. Her "broke a nail" line was eyeroll-inducing (intentional or not), and she seemed to be too gung-ho about attacking her opponents rather than trying to talk things out and learn more.

    On the bright side, this movie had far better action sequences than WB has been putting out the past few years. Wondy got some great action moments herself, so there's that.

    At least they fixed the costume.

    Eh, I am one of those fans who like the sword. And the bad guys had already attacked and hurt one of her teammates (Superman) by then so I get not trying to talk to them first. On the other hand attacking Jessica a bit to get her to GL up was pretty bad.

    I was excited when this project was announced. And then I saw the preview and that *&#!-ing sword. It's getting to be ridiculous now.

    Nothing was worse than Batman's skeletor line.

    I have no plans to watch it. The fatal 5 bore me to tears and I don’t consider them threat to the JLA. In regards to Diana, I’m sick of the sword being used.

    I'm halfway through and liking it so far. Love when Diana fights using wrestling moves (the head grab flip was amazing) but by far my favorite is the lasso yo-yo punch thing she does! I need to see that in live action, been a fan since she used it against Superwoman in Crisis on 2 Earths. It's GREAT to see her looking like Wonder Woman again despite that stupid sword.

    Finally saw it. Not a big fan of her characterization. She pulls out the sword in the middle of a city street and attacks Jessica Cruz in an attempt to make her step up to the plate. This seemed reckless and out of character.

    Whenever Diana has a sword she's written terribly. It's the damn sword. Plus it really looked stupid with her classic costume.

    Really liked the 'broke a nail' line. Especially since she had just decked the guy that decked Superman

    The sword - yeah, it looked a bit odd but I warmed to it. Would have preferred they just use the lasso to get to Star Boy's memories, but the telepathic review was too cool to pass up.

    I gave it 4 stars - her first scene with Jessica made me cringe a little, but I thought her reaction to the five was appropriate. Guys had just attacked a street full of civilians and showed the were dangerous by using lethal force on Clark. Crack some heads and reason with them when they can't try and kill anyone sounds justifiable to me.
    If ten years of recording The Young and the Restless for my mother have taught me anything, it's that characters in serial dramas are always happily in love...until they're not
