Just to be clear, I’m not saying there’s anything inherently wrong with women wearing revealing clothing. People can wear whatever they want. I’m just saying that given the context that this is a movie and therefore she likely had little input on her wardrobe and pretty much every shot she was in was framed to take advantage of said wardrobe to the max, it makes the whole thing feel very exploitive.

I don't believe I'll ever watch Justice League so if Peter could just let me know if they treat Batman, Supes, Wet Khal Drogo, Metalman, and Speed Kid the same way, then I'd appreciate it.
My desire is for egalitarian superhero objectification. For every Wonder Woman upskirt there should be an equal amount of Batman butt. For every Amazonian plunging neckline there should be an equally plunging Kryptonian ab shot (show me that Super Pubic V, y'all know what I'm talking about). I want camera pans from ankles to pectorals when introducing the Atlantian and his buff beach buddies.
Also perhaps we could objectify male villains the same way we do female villains? Loki is hot and all, but his big sister gets a tight torn bodysuit while he's just stuck looking extremely fashionable with his coats scarves and raiments and such. I want my God of Mischief in latex. It'd suit him, I think.

To be honest, I didn't notice it except in one scene, where IIRC, she was talking to Bruce Wayne and for no discernible reason, her butt was pretty much centre frame in a shot. I remember thinking if I'd opted for the 3-D showing, the audience would perhaps have got quite the eyeful.

k, so I just saw Justice League and one thing you didn’t really touch on but I’m sure you might’ve noticed was how overly-sexualized and male-gazy Wonder Woman was in this movie. There were so many butt, boob, and crotch-shots of her that it really felt ridiculous. Her skirt was also noticeably shorter in this compared to the one she wore in the Wonder Woman movie and almost everything she wore while in civilian attire had a plunging neckline. Even that scene when when Batman and WW were arguing gave closeup shots of just his face but her closeups made sure to have her chest in the shot as well (which was exposed with another deep-V-neck).
I mean, I’m not saying they should’ve had her wear hoodies and sweatpants throughout the movie. The Wonder Woman stand-alone did a really good job of showing off her attractiveness without having any almost-up-skirt shots or making us subconsciously aware of her butt at all times.
I don’t know, maybe this happens more often than I realize and I only noticed it here because I just saw the WW movie for the first time a couple of days ago (good movie, btw) and I’m 100% sure that none of that was in the movie or at least not nearly to the degree that Justice League did. Am I right in thinking that they went beyond what’s “normal” for a female character in a movie like this or am I dumb?

I'm not sure what all the fuss is about, I've watched this video twice now; and unless someone was to point it out to me I'd have no idea your upper lip was CGI

I laughed so much at this I had to pause it and rewind at least four times. This is the most I have laughed since your Suicide Squad video (the first video of yours I saw).

Actually had to pause to laugh my arse off at that Whedon joke. Thanks for that.

The Joss Whedon part felt like it came straight from the heart.
