More Live Action Wonder Woman in Action (and with no pants)

The Wonder Woman pilot won't be airing on television but more footage has now become available.

For better or for worse, the Wonder Woman television show is not going to happen. We saw early images and heard portions of the script. A review of the pilot didn't have too many good things to say about it. NBC decided not to give the show a greenlight and so we will not get a weekly dose of live-action Wonder Woman.

Since the pilot has been made, the question is, when will we be able to actually see it for ourselves? There was a few seconds that made it online but it was basically a super short teaser with the logo. But now, we get just over a half second of Wonder Woman in action...and she's not wearing pants!

What do you think? Could the show have worked? Wouldn't it have been a better idea to try to tweak whatever problems the pilot had rather than completely give up on it?

== TEASER ==

Not sure if the video will get taken down from youtube. Just in case, here's some screencaps.

Warner Bros. and/or NBC should just make the pilot available on iTunes before it completely leaks out. That way we can watch a high quality version and they can maybe make up for the money they spent on the pilot.

Update

As you can see, Warner Bros. had the thirty second clip pulled. All it had was a bunch of muscle dudes in this warehouse. They're talking about the place being locked down and steel-reinforced. They don't think she'll make it past security. Suddenly the sound of a jet passes overhead. Wonder Woman opens the door and heads towards a chain-link gate. The head muscle dude orders a guy named Chris to lock the gate. Wonder Woman snarls at him and pushes the gate open, sending Chris flying back. That's it.

Looks like it would've been similar to the live-action Conan series from about a decade back: lousy acting, lousy writing, lousy effects and choreography, but lots of eye-candy. Maybe the soundtrack would have been okay, at least...
Who knows, I would've like to know what theme they chose.

The costume would look a hell of a lot better if they used different materials and not spandex.

I added a full description of the video in the original post now that the video's disappeared. It was only thirty seconds. Nothing really happens.

As you can see, Warner Bros. had the thirty second clip pulled. All it had was a bunch of muscle dudes in this warehouse. They're talking about the place being locked down and steel-reinforced. They don't think she'll make it past security. Suddenly the sound of a jet passes overhead. Wonder Woman opens the door and heads towards a chain-link gate.

According to impressions of those who've seen it, the pilot was never actually finished so there are missing FX and placeholder sound tracks... putting more money into it to finish it is probably not what they want to do.  I suppose they could release it "as is" but someone out there probably does not want an unfinished work out there representing their FX company, stunt company, score composition, acting, etc.  That said, I tend to agree... "no such thing as bad press" sort of idea.  Maybe it will be a disc extra on a Wonder Woman anthology some day.  :P

It'd be interesting to see how Wonder Woman in this tv series deflect a hailstorm of bullets from a gattling gun using nothing but her bracelets ? What do you think ? Can she deflect all the bullets or would some stray bullets injure her primary assest ? :)

the one from the 70's looked less cheesy. wow was this bad. the chic is hot, but not Linda Carter hot.

The show from the 70's was f*c#ing Limburger. That show stunk. The cheese was what made it a success everyone knew it was ridiculous, but it was fun and that is why people watched it.

You are NOT the only one. I think it looked like a heck of a lot of potentially fun WW kicking butt. I am disappointed in the naysayers and those whose opinions shouldn't matter because they wouldn't like a WW show no matter who was playing the part.

for some reason, I could accept this more as a CW show - and I like CW, it's just they can get away with things that are a little more over-the-top (except Supernatural, because Supernatural IS SERIOUS BUSINESS).   and I actually wouldn't have a problem with the costume (aside from it being ridiculous, garish, and a little bit too 'stripper'), except for that it doesn't seem to fit with the serious tone the clip is trying to give off.

Ok... 'Just over a half a second'? Surely that's just a screencap :) 
Oh and FYI pants in the UK means underwear, bringing a whole other connotation to the headline, albeit in line with standing pre-conceptions of the costume design, but still...

I know everyone says how bad it is, personally it doesn't look terrible, but if it aired I think people would still watch it.

or maybe they could have her stick out her chest a little more.  you know, so male viewers aren't confronted with the dilemma of enjoying a female character that they can't easily dismiss as a sex symbol.  
 
that's right.  I came back for round two.  you know you dislike something when you take the time to get back online specifically to insult it.

This looked like one of those fan made videos and as a fan made video I would say it wasn't terrible but the acting was certainly lacking. As something that was supposed to pass for a TV series... yikes. It belongs more on MTV or CW with that level of performing. I agree with MadMonkey as a porno.. I would definitely watch it.

you know, it looks pretty lame, especially with whatever the trying-to-look-tough-but-looking-like-I'm-half-sleep-walking-half-moody thing she does here.  sorry, WW doesn't prowl. or cat walk.  or whatever that was.  bad, bad, bad.
