Exactly. Remember when I said they would have made Wonder Woman into something like Steel? I wasn't talking about the audience.

Steel was typical studio BS politics. Like Batman and Robin.

The problem is not the concept or audience acceptance, but the studio management and the decisions they make.

Always has been.
The difference now is that the big media companies wanted to have "warrior women leader" messages in their media--since they most surely thought someone else would be president now.

About the studio thing, we are agreeing, you know.

And warrior women leader wasn't really a message since the island was all women. And she wasn't really a leader when she left the island because she kept pouting when she didn't get her way. When they told her she couldn't do something she always made this "But whyyyyyyy?" face. That would have been the total opposite message to send.

And another name that I just thought of that would have been Wonder Woman is Angelina Jolie. She wasn't at Gone in 60 Seconds levels yet, but Hackers was kinda close to it.
