    Default WONDER WOMAN SEQUEL(S)--What would you like to see? SPOILERS!!!

    We know now that Diana first came to our world toward the end of WW1 and kept a very low profile for close to a century. Where do we go from here? Any hopes, thoughts, ideas? Forgive me if this is being discussed elsewhere.

    I have some general ideas:

    -Set post-JL.
    -Diana in America.
    -A somewhat smaller scale, but even more personal story.
    -Barbara Minerva/Cheetah as the main villain.
    -Diana with a female LI.
    -Show her interacting more with the general public (especially kids).
    -Etc.

    They may not have planned to do a World War Two story when they set this one in the First World War, but I think the popularity of the movie has set up an expectation in the audience that there will some more action in the past. Maybe not for a full movie, but at least some flashbacks.

    I'd like to see Baroness Paula von Gunther.

    I think Barbara Ann Minerva is the perfect all-purpose supporting character--in that she can help Diana find her way back to Themyscira--while at the same time having a tragic fate as the Cheetah. But Circe would maybe have to play a role in that, too.

    I wouldn't do either another war story (especially another world war story) or Greek Mythological villain again right away. Do something really different this time around.

    Another story set in the past would be great but whatever she did would have to get little to no publicity. Does the return to Themyscira? I'd love to see more of that and the Amazons. I'd also love to see more of Antiope. Is there a way to bring Robin Wright back?

    I would mind a WW2-era Wonder Woman story, inspired by the early Marston stories. Have Diana deal with either Cheetah (the original Cheetah, Priscilla Rich) or Baroness Paula von Gunther. And maybe incorporate the Spear of Destiny into the plot somehow - as an explanation for why Diana couldn't intervene in the war in Europe this time round.

    Actually, it'd be brilliant to witness Diana's reaction to Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Maybe THAT, combined with learning about the Holocaust, is what REALLY disillusions her about humanity. I recently read this story from the 70's set during WW2 where Superman and Wonder Woman fight over the nuclear tests (Superman is defending the project while Wonder Woman is against it). Hmm...come to think of it, that might make for a great plot, but which some other hero standing in for Superman?

    Which brings me to my next point. I'd love to see the JSA, either in the sequel, or as a spin-off film that happens to feature Wonder Woman. Given that I doubt DC would want to dilute the Justice League brand in cinema by pushing the JSA as a separate brand - having them as crucial supporting characters in a Wonder Woman movie might be a good move.

    I would like...

    Movie takes place post JL
    Diana developing a relationship (love interest?) with Barbara Minerva
    Circe is doing something magical and horrible
    At the end Barbara becomes the villain, Cheetah, but by some sort of self sacrifice while trying to help Diana in some way (maybe she really can't get back home? Maybe preparing to go up against Circe?)
    In the end, it's all tied to Circe, Cheetah blames Diana, (because she's feral and crazed, but still intelligent and ruthless.) and Diana beats Circe, and vows to help Barbara (set up for WW3)


    Oops...did I just describe some version of Rucka's Godwatch??
    It's not about 'deserve' it's about what you believe. And I believe in Love.
