I rather doubt they're going to use the Carter outfit. The comics have done a number of revisions to the costume over the years that would look plausible on film.

Because Batman has always been part of the DC Universe, and they want to tell stories where he interacts with other characters? There's no reason that Batman can't be like Captain America or Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It's a huge part of the character's history.

It can be a bit of a challenge, but Diana should be both loving/approachable and having an aristocratic poise. She's a warrior princess, after all.

I imagine they'll be doing a more Xena-type version of her costume in the film (there's been a million fan designs along those lines, and more than a few in the comics too).

In the current comics she's actually Zeus' daughter. I'm not sure which version the films will use.

Wonder Woman is often imagined as an all-American Lynda Carter type, so
I'm glad they went for more of a Mediterranean look, which the character
should have, in my opinion.

I hope the ads include "and Academy Award-winner Marcia Gay Harden" in them.

I love fantasy maps. One of my favourite parts of reading the Redwall books as a kid was looking at the maps and comparing them (the geography of Mossflower could change in noticeable ways depending on the story).

He died of shame after appearing in Goodburger.

I think he said it was 1982, so it would have been 30 years.

Poor Boyle. Not allowed any dignity even when being heroic.

I think I prefer Gravity, but I would have no problem with 12 Years winning.

She gave a great performance (probably still her best), in a great film. Blanchett was terrific as well (as is, overall, a better actress), but I really have ever understood the degree of vitriol people still hold for that win. It's not like Blanchett didn't win subsequently.

I've been surprised at how little attention Hawkins has gotten so far in awards prognostications, given that Woody Allen and 'Best Supporting Actress go together like peanut butter and jelly.

The late 60s through the early 90s are the nadir of men's fashion. There's hardly any major trends from that period that don't look terribly silly in retrospect.

Sadly, he failed, and his Great American Novel remains unpublished.

Lubezki's past nominations weren't for the sort of CGI-incorporating work he does in Gravity, the sort of movie that has won the Cinematography award every year since Avatar (see also: Inception in 2010, Hugo in 2011, and Life of Pi last year). Gravity is going to sweep the tech categories, like Hugo and Life of Pi…

It has, in some quarters.

Gwyneth Paltrow was a worthy winner that year.

There can be only one. Hence, White Steve McQueen had to die so that Black Steve McQueen could be famous.
