Watch the Full WONDER WOMAN Comic-Con Panel

Mick spoke a little too soon when he said that it was unanimous that Guardians of the Galaxy won Hall H. A few of us were really enamored with the Wonder Woman trailer, which you can check out here if you haven’t already. Go ahead and watch it, maybe a couple times even. I’ll wait…

I mean, look, it’s a trailer, and there have been plenty of good trailers for shitty movies, but also, it’s a really great trailer. It’s funny and warm in a really grim setting, and the action is among the most beautiful I have ever seen. The Golden Lasso looks badass, not hokey, and the Amazon warriors are exactly as fierce as you want them to be. Robin Wright charging into battle on her steed? Incredible. The visuals are nothing short of stunning, and with Gal Gadot at the center, the film is sure to have a strong emotional core as well. Patty Jenkins looks to have pulled off something amazing, and it makes me smile to think of the haters who said she couldn’t do it.

I’m pretty much gushing at this point, but I dressed up as Wonder Woman a lot when I was a kid. She was my first hero, and seeing her so fully realized onscreen is emotional for me, and I think the same is true for a lot of other girls and women, including the women who made the film. Director Patty Jenkins and stars Gal Gadot, Connie Nielsen, and Chris Pine were all in Hall H yesterday to talk about making the film, and you can watch the whole thing below.
