Stop dream-casting Megan Fox as Wonder Woman.
I get it. Really, I do. Megan Fox is pretty much the hottest woman in the world (sorry, Angelina Jolie, try having more than -2% body fat) and Wonder Woman is the hottest superheroine in comics... perfect casting, right?
Sigh.
Remember the last time this happened? Okay, fine, I'll remind you. I'm sorry it came to this:

Yeah. Take a good long look. I won't even bring up Halle Berry as Storm OR Catwoman.
The point is, whoever they cast is going to be ridiculously good-looking. It's Hollywood, they're not going to cast Margaret fucking Cho. But there are ridiculously good-looking women who can act. (Not that Halle Berry can't act... ahem... but she makes about as convincing an action heroine as I do.) Now, I'm not saying Megan Fox can't act, but what about her screams Wonder Woman? Other than the cleavage, which is awe-inspiring? Exactly. She's Wonder Girl AT BEST.
Instead, I suggest we cast Megan Fox as Wonder Woman's girlfriend, Io, and include a scene where Io disguises herself as Wonder Woman to serve as a decoy while Diana escapes. So we've got Megan Fox in a Wonder Woman costume, PLUS Megan Fox and Wonder Woman making out, and whoever is awesome enough to play Wondy. So there's hot GOGA, there's a positive representation of homosexuality/bisexuality in the media, we can use the movie to find Skrulls (they'll be the guys complaining that Steve Trevor should be Diana's love interest)... EVERYBODY WINS.
Plus, Io canonically wears nothing but a leather apron and pants most of the time.
Thank you for your time, internet perverts, and once again, sorry for reminding you of Movie!Sue.
