Wonder Woman and Justice League of America movies

Jessica Biel has decided to opt out of being Wonder Woman in the JLA movie. To that I say good...she's just not right for the part.

I still do not agree with the fact that they want to start Wonder Woman in a Justice League movie and then have her spin off. STOP! We need a Wonder Woman stand alone movie FIRST! Of course Charisma Carpenter still seems to be best suited for the satin tights and gold bracelets. Eliza Dushku was a previous favorite of mine but I'm not sure she'd be the best choice now. Kate Beckinsale looks great but I'm not sure she would have that kind of Lynda Carter quality...and certainly EVERYONE in Hollywood is looking for that Lynda Carter component as well, which I think is a good thing. She doesn't have to be Carter straight up. But certainly retain some of the real charm and accessability Lynda brought to the role.

NO Angelina Jolie, NO Sarah Michelle Gellar, NO KATIE HOLMES!!! Does anybody like Rachel Weisz? Just came across a photo of her and thought...hmmmm. Rachel Bilson's ("The Last Kiss") name has popped up lately, but I think she's a little too young and little too small framed. Priyanka Chopra...too Bollywood. Morena Baccarin from "Firefly"...sorry, doesn't work. Evangeline Lilly from "Lost"; again the face is totally there...the body, not so much. Some photos of her look like she really needs to eat a sandwich. Of course training could change that some. Megan Fox from "Transformers"; the accessability factor just isn't there. A little too harsh looking. Lauren Graham from "Gilmore Girls"? There's definitely something there that could work. I'm just afraid after "Gilmore" it would be hard for audiences to not think of her cracking rapid fire one liners. Jill Hennessy from "Crossing Jordan"? O.K. the Lynda Carter vibe is DEFINITELY there! Lately I've been starting to think she need to move up to the top of the list next to Charisma.

What do you think? I've been blathering on too long.

And of course once again, I DON'T want to see Wonder Woman's big screen reappearance in the Justice League of America movie! LEAVE WONDER WOMAN ALONE! (sob, sob, sob)...oh sorry that was someone else. But hey, we all know how high my hopes are for the JLA flick. You can certainly tell by the pic above.
