Superheroines

Why don’t they make a commercial like this in the USA?

Some cool retro-imagery and some genuine imagination here. Kudos to the creators for trying something cool and different.

    Las mujeres siempre supimos que un cambio de ropa nos hace poderosas.

    I, too, feel empowered by Wonder Woman’s (Mujer Maravilla?) slow-motion jogging!

    Thelma, I have always been inspired by the great superheroines!

    Jaytee, maybe you felt inspired. I felt something move! Oh mama!

    Thelma, well, it’s true.

    Hellcat, Pretty cool, huh?

    Jaytee, note the awesome camera shot when we first come up upon Miss Kitka/Catwoman (in a direct homage to the Batman 1966 movie, NOT the TV series). Lots of attention to craft!

    And holy smokes, they should hire that woman at the end to play Wonder Woman in the movie. So what if she doesn’t speak English. She is the best match I have ever seen since Lynda Carter. Kudos to Spaniard casting! ;-)

    V.V., I didn’t catch the movie shot reference, but I’m not surprised, since they copied the Bat Chica shot from the show of her exiting her lair on her cycle.

    And, if I’m not mistaken, Lynda Carter is in fact of Latin extraction herself. Jeepers, they sure do know how to grow women of heroic stature! And Wonder Woman doesn’t have to speak English — I hear her message loud and clear! Ay, Mama! Papa wants a little Justice!!

    Jaytee, this commercial was made by at least one person who knew what they were doing. Very authentic and respectful of the original tv shows that inspired the commercial. In the USA, when it comes to creativity the best we can do is stretching out the Geico cavemen for a 6th go-around!

    And yes, Lynda Carter is at least part latin, I believe. Needless to say, either Lynda Carter or the Spaniard model playing Wonder Woman in ‘Superheroines’ don’t have to tie me up in a golden lasso to get me to tell the truth! ;-)

    I agree, the chica caliente y bonita should be cast as the next WW. They could always use subtitles or dubbing when she speaks: “Stop! Ju bad boyz! I will poke jur ices out wit my pointy bra. jajajaja” (spanish laughter)

    Thelma, I’d gladly pay $12 to see that movie, no problem!
