Everything’s coming up Gadot today. First, we learned about Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot’s awesome pregnancy news and who she suggested as a girlfriend for a canonically bisexual Wonder Woman. And now Youtuber Sebastian Hughes has mixed footage of Gadot from the first and second Wonder Woman trailers as well as Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice with the upbeat, pounding theme music from the 1975 TV series staring Lynda Carter. I did not realize how much I needed this today.

And this mashup meshes surprisingly well. It’s worth noting Gal Gadot has described director Patty Jenkins’ vision for the film as “a very simple story of someone who believes in good and believes that people should be happy and lead safe, happy lives.” If that isn’t in keeping with the spirit of the ’70s TV show, we don’t know what is. On the other hand, if they really want to hit all my happy brain buttons with classic references to the TV series I watched in constant reruns as a kid, the movie will show Wonder Woman getting so fed up with the bad guys that she has just got to throw a motherf*cker at another motherf*cker…

"...Canonically bisexual Wonder Woman?" How did this come to be?

Although I do not have any of the DC comics, I have the three seasons DVDs of the 1970s Lynda Carter, and have seen nothing suggesting anything bi. She is close to the other Amazons, but they are like family. She encourage other women to be better. And if she want a squeeze, I think she would prefer Trevor's. And yes, I think the producers jumped the shark when it went from WWII period to contemporary, because the '70s stunk, between first and second seasons.
