Review: (#1) It’s admittedly a tease, but apart from the color scheme being modestly original, though somewhat distracting, it’s just not a very strong design.

(#2-#4) A triptych of posters that are visually strong, but lack the richness of detail we would want from such designs.

(#5) While a pretty backdrop, the poster isn’t that richly detailed or interesting.

(#6) The battlefield image from the trailer is one of the more striking ones and used in the poster, it evokes a sense of the combat ahead. It does not, however, convey a sense of style or general excitement.

(#7) There was absolutely no need to include Chris Pine’s character in the background it speaks to the tone-deaf marketing campaign Warner Bros. has employed on this film and smacks of a lack of faith in a woman selling a film on her own without the assistance of a man, which the action on display in this poster would also suggest.

(#8) This is one of the better designs Warner Bros. has put together. It has a lot of individuals on display with Wonder Woman herself bridging the gap between the two worlds. The background on the left is suitably detailed, while the left-side could use some improvement. (#9) This Lasso of Truth design looks heavily manipulated, which isn’t the most interesting design decision. (#10) A less detailed version of the eighth design, the two worlds of this character are loosely explored with a dull background and chintzy overlay effects.

(#11) Another overly-manipulated design, but one which shows just what a bad ass this character is. That will account for something. (#12) Black that light, Diana! Another design that just doesn’t pop. (#13-#15) The Amazons are given golden placement in this set of three character posters. It would be interesting to see another set of three that put Diana in the center with the two prominent figures in London on either side.

Trailer Rating: B- / C+ / B- / C / B+

Review: (#1) While there are some interesting things on display in the trailer, and I’m excited we’re finally going to get a female superhero in a stand alone film, the trailer doesn’t have a lot of depth to it and the hint that there’s a generic love story at the heart makes for some disappointment.

(#2) Focusing on the action and violence in the film doesn’t give it much resonance in terms of story elements. This is a film that looks to extol the virtues of its lead without giving her sufficient character detail.

(#3) We get more details here about Wonder Woman’s origin, but between this and the other trailers, it seems like we’ve likely seen the majority of the film, which isn’t a great thing.

(#4) Seemingly cut together from previous trailers with a few extra images, this trailer showcases a style of humor that seems cheap and unimpressive. This suggests a film that may be feel inefficient or lacking.

(#5) They saved the best trailer for last. This is the kind of trailer the stokes excitement in the film and gives us plenty of interesting Wonder Woman moments, though the Chris Pine character seems more like a thematic liability here than even the last weak trailer suggested.
