I keep seeing attempts at improving the costume, but all of them fail miserably. And then once someone posts up a picture of the original, it really doesn't look as bad as all the half-assed attempts at updating it.Tawmis wrote:Well keep in mind, in comics, Wonder Woman's costume is... acceptable (though most argue physics and how her breasts don't fall out) - but even Linda Carter as Wonder Woman, if you look at the costume, it IS pretty silly...
Yes, but did Linda Carter pull it off well because you were a kid and it was much easier to accept?Datadog wrote: So maybe the problem isn't changing the costume, but finding an actress who can convincingly wear it. Linda Carter pulls it off well, and I think if they brought that image of her into the 21st century and hit it with the right lighting, she would look ten times more awesome.
I never watched WW as a kid (I think it was way before my time) and the character herself holds no nostalgic value for me. Rather I'm looking at the idea that it's always been this costume in which she's always been the most successful.Tawmis wrote:Yes, but did Linda Carter pull it off well because you were a kid and it was much easier to accept?
Well the bottom of the top (for the breasts, which is what I assume you mean for support) - looks like it offers support (or in the last picture)... for the bottom. Not much support to the top, admittedly. It looks like a push up bra.therogue wrote:The new costume is somewhat of an improvement (doing away with the vinyl trousers) however I can't help but practically feel sympathy pain for Miss Palicky and the stunt ladies because running around in that top looks painful. (The top doesn't look to me like it offers any decent support for any activity, let alone full out running)
Maybe a wonder bra?Tawmis wrote:It looks like a push up bra.
:nods: trust me, when it comes to running, especially for the well endowed ladies, support to the top is also very important. I've been told some horror stories about what can happen in case of bad sports bras.Tawmis wrote: Well the bottom of the top (for the breasts, which is what I assume you mean for support) - looks like it offers support (or in the last picture)... for the bottom.
