I had the honor of being interviewed for the special features documentaries and wanted to let you know that I talked at length with the interviewers about Holloway, Byrne, the polyamorous nature of their relationship with Marston, and how the two women harmoniously supported each other and their children well into old age. I also discussed how they were intellectuals themselves.

We also talked about bondage, submission, sexuality, sex, kink, eroticism, Marston’s psychological theories, quasi-feminism and essentialism, and so on . . . but I think the documentary makers’ hands were tied (pardon the pun) when it came to how much of those subjects they include on the disc. (If you look behind my left shoulder in the footage you can see the nude bust of a woman that not only had to be turned about face but draped as well.) My guess is, you can get away with Hef talking about sex and sexual politics because audiences expect it.

And I still can’t believe I’m in a documentary, let alone one with Hugh Hefner – What a trip!

I’m sure Trina talked about these issues as well, and it’s too bad they weren’t included. But I’m fairly certain it was a censorship issue on the part of Warner rather than a lack of interest or effort by the interviewers/ees and just wanted to let you know that the intent to provide that information was definitely there!

Best,

I love Greek mythology, so the beginning was a big treat for me. My problem with this aspect of the story was the fact that a common sword had the ability to behead a god. The Olympian gods are made of sterner stuff than that.

The characterization of Steve Trevor didn’t bother me. As an ex-military guy who knew fighter pilots he came across as believable. I’m not saying all fighter jocks are like that, but I’ve met a few who are. I grew up on Marine air bases and I can tell you that planes don’t move like that. Someone should have spent a couple hours of research to make the dog fights more realistic. Also, you can’t vertically land a plane without vertical thrusters. The Invisible Jet is missing some much needed equipment.

I agree this is a very violent story and given how DC animation usually panders to kids that was shocking. The warning about violence and suggestive humor needs to be more prominent.

I thought the gender politics were heavy handed. I would have loved to see a redesign of her suit so that it looked more like Amazon armor.

But even with these flaws I still had a good time.

I’m not usually offended by movies, but this was pretty close. The stereotypes were flying and neither the Amazons nor Mankind had a very good portrayal. They were all so two-dimensional.

And the idiotic dialogue! There were too many clunkers to keep track.

It wasn’t downright terrible, but it could have been so much more.

I think for the most part it was just a movie that couldn’t get out of its own way. Every time I started feeling like the story was getting going, the characters would either say or do something blatantly idiotic and knock me out of the story.

Of course it was still a ton better than what looks like a train wreck in the making on that GL movie. Too bad whomever is doing these movies is more into name actors, than true voice talents like those that made DC’s animated series going back to Batman:TAS the best ever.

I was annoyed that the digital copy was PC friendly only. When the ITunes ones so easily works on cross platforms.
