I don't think people was that ready for a Wonder Woman movie. Even in the big "female-led" movies like Cameron's, there was a big male 2nd lifting heavy loads. I think they would have given Wonder Woman the Steel treatment. The public was ready for it in 1915 when Mountain Girl in Intolerance was swinging around on ropes and firing off arrows from a bow. There have been super heroic women characters in film and tv for decades/centuries. Bionic Woman, tv Wonder Woman, Modesty Blaise, Pat Savage etc. The studio executives are just massively out of touch with audiences and make decisions according to ideological tastes of their own making. Being ready for it in 1915 is not the same as being ready for it in 1994. Remember that the 80s and early 90s were male dominated testosterone fueled action extravaganzas. You really think Wonder Woman would have competed with all those Stallone and Van Damme and Arnold and Seagal movies? The closest we got was T2 and that was mostly Arnold. |
