It's a double standard.
None of the male superhero actors are anywhere near as big as their comic book counterparts.

Jamie Alexander is underweight,but using her as an example does you no favors,if they choose to say other wise,IDK what to tell you,yes though she is underweight The Accent is a legit complaint,shes always been depicted as having an American Accen t and yes by not having one she fails I didn't understand your meaning about Jamie. Are you agreeing with me or not? If you want another example then Zoe Saldana as Gamora. She's even slimmer than Gadot and didn't get much flak for her size. As for the accent, I don't remember any movie where Gadot tried to pass off as an American with an American accent. Unless you can specifically mention some then your complaint is just plain stupid. Actually it wouldn't even matter because the Amazons in this movie clearly aren't speakinh with an American accent. Saldana does not do you any favors either,shes underweight as well,I don't like that casting either Nor Elodie Yung as Elektra The fact that Gadot can't speak with an American Accent so she already failed ok,BVS is an example of that

I'm listing Zoe Saldana and Elodie Yung as examples of actresses slimmer than Gadot who are not getting the same criticisms as she is for her size. As for the accent, Gadot never portrayed an American in BvS, so she wasn't supposed to have an American accent. Try again.

WW shouldn't sound anything other than American,she does not because of Gadot. I never the accent makes her bad she's already a bad actress on her own, fast movies, criminal and BVS

The actresses themselves might have gotten criticisms here and there, but definitely nowhere near the flak that Gadot is receiving for Wonder Woman. And again, Wonder Woman is not an American so she's not supposed to have an American accent. STFU about all this American accent BS. Not everyone who speaks english is an American.

Can't speak for anybody else,but all have gotten equal criticism from me. I know not everybody that speaks English is not an American,that does not mean Gadot gets a pass,since WW should be able to since its one of her abilities,which why she has always had an american Accent

Not in this movieverse anyway. Obviously movie superhero characters don't carry over all of their powers from the comics. Nothing in BvS stated that Wonder Woman should have had an American accent or the ability to master languages, which means you can't criticize Gadot for not having an American accent. Wonder Woman is not American. Get that through your head. Doesn't matter if her original suit had spangly panties. SHE.IS.NOT.AMERICAN.

Then that goes against the character,shes always been depicted with an American Accent Only because they got a white actress to play the role every time. Nothing in the comics says she has to have an American accent. Even Gina Torres played Wonder Woman with her slight Latin accent. The only thing you can say is that she should have lost her accent from being in America for the last 100 years (if that's what she did). But in all modern depictions of the character she came straight from Themyscira and shouldn't have an American accent. If anything it should be a made up accent with roots from Greek.

Why can't you get that? Are you going to start complaining too about why she doesn't have an invisible jet?
