They should've gotten Allan Heinberg and Gail Simone to write it. Or they should get them to write a live action one. That would be bad ass.

Argh now I see not a fan of many of the Wonder Woman focused episodes on JL/JLU. :lol

I liked the one where her and Hawkgirl went to hell.
 

Dead

well not really...yet
The preview was pretty cool

Based on the previous movies, I wish they'd make these DC universe movies a bit longer. 75 is way too short, 90 minutes would be much better.

edit: It seems they dropped the Unrated part for the 2 disc and Blu-Ray lol
