I finally bought this and loved it. I don't have much else to add because it would simply be admitted DC Fanboy gushing and that never goes down well here in the "Marvel/Indie/Anti-Cape/Burned out on comics" talk Forum....oops!...did I say that out loud?
j/k!! 
I will say special thanks to Darwyn Cooke for getting what many artists don't...WW is a fuckin' Amazon and should be at least as tall, if not taller than Superman!

Anyway, I dug the movie, but didn't think it was anything special. I thought Batman looked terrible. It was nice to see Lantern and Flash do their thing. I've never read the comic, but its got me interested.

Barda is supposed to be way bigger than everyone else (hence the name): it's her contrast with the slim, smaller Mr. Miracle that makes them work. Of course, Donna is Wonder Woman's twin (or something like that) and I've never seen people complain about her height relative to her fellow Titans.

Okay, this review absolutely eviscerates the movie.
I haven't seen it for myself so I have no opinion of my own, but the guy makes better, more concise points as to why it sucks than anyone else does as to why it's good. Seems like a huge disparity. Any retorts?

I guess they feel threatened or something.I was never really a huge "Donna" fan so it never mattered to me. Granted she's been growing on me over the last year or so with all the 52 stuff.

I loved the source material, I liked the movie.
It's impossible to please everybody when you're making a 75 minute movie from a story this massive, but they still did a good job.
The Blu-Ray wasn't as impressive from a video standpoint as I was expecting, but the quality of the extras made up for that.
It's still a little weird to listen to Stan Lee in a DC Comics discussion.

I like the movie but wasn't a huge fan of the comic. Loved the artwork but thought it was lacking as a "total package".
During the movie my sons kept saying Wonder Woman was fat.

Well I watched it over the weekend, and while it was fun enough, it was definitely a missed opportunity in making something that could have had more impact. At only 75 minutes, they could've easily added 15-20 more minutes to flesh out the story and characters which would've given it that impact and made it considerably better. They way it was, while I was intrigued from the start, by the end, I kinda didn't care about what was happening.
Also, I'm getting a little tired of all the DC animation still looking kinda like the Batman cartoons from the '90s - it was cool at the time, but it's getting really stale. I'm looking forward to that Batman anthology from all those anime guys mostly for it's different approach in the animation department.

Yeah I was just messin' with ya. To be honest, even though I loved it I think you have a valid point.

Also, I'm really looking forward to that Bat-anime thing too! It will be nice to see a totally different looking Batman (even if he will be voiced by the greatness that is Kevin Conroy -- just so you know).
