GAL GADOT Just Gained 50 lbs of Muscle for Wonder Woman! Yeah, right…

Maybe Dwayne Johnson should play Wonder Woman, cos y’know, he’s got big muscles and bit breasts.

Lawless was never a beefcake. Sheesh. Betty Page was a beefcake, and a beautiful beefcake at that. I think it isn’t so much about the muscles as it is about looking like a woman instead of a 14 year old hairless boy.

Gadot may be 5’10” and super-scrawny, but even that aside, I think she *looks* like an awful Wonder Woman. There’s nothing about her that fits the part. Aside from being slightly short (at 5’9″) and possibly not a good enough actress yet, I think Gina Carano so far would be the best Wonder Woman, at least just going by appearance. They’d probably have to cast a major unknown and former Bodybuilder to really get her right, though. Honestly, Batman and Superman seem less hard to cast than a perfect Wonder Woman.

This is just early speculation though and its too early to tell, so I won’t start hating on Gal Gadot, yet. Ben Affleck however is PROVEN to be a hammy actor, though. He’d need to do the acting job of his life to be a convincing Batman, lest we have another Batman and Robin movie, which is what this sounds like, so far. I wouldn’t even have minded Affleck as Superman (if Daredevil didn’t exist) but the dark and gritty super-genius billionaire Batman? Affleck is one of the least intimidating men in Hollywood, even at 6’3″. Of course, I also think Christian Bale was an AWFUL Batman too (despite the Nolan movies themselves being good), but at least we didn’t have to look at him much under the mask. So who knows? Maybe the director will make Affleck look as good as Bale did. Same thing for Wonder Woman.

You could always find a NEW actress. Doesnt have to be famous could check out the local plays and pick out someone who looks like her and see if she has the acting ability. Hollywood is so small when it comes from their pool of talent.

Beefcake is a MALE hottie – that’s the only definition of the word I know. Now lets pick apart this weak-ass argument:

Linda Hamilton: Are fucking kidding me? She was ripped like a bodybuilder in T2! If Gal (the human toothpick) Gadot was traing anywhere near as Linda did, I doubt we’d be complaining, but she’s clearly not.

Lucy Lawless: Again, are you kidding me? Lucy is much more broadly built and athletic than Gal. Christ, Gal is skinny as a model (which she is!), whereas Lucy has the athletic build of a female Lacrosse player: there’s meat on them bones! She must outweigh Gadot by 25 pounds!

Yes, its important to get someone with legitimate acting chops (but does this really describe Gal -underwear model- Gadot?), but its also important to get someone the physical requirements for the role…and Gal is failing MISERABLY in that category.
