DC Movies - To Infinity and Beyond

I'm more concerned with movies and TV shows purportedly set in the 1940s but that have hairstyles from another decade. I've seen films and series where a female character is living during the Depression or World War II but clearly has a 1960s or '70s hairdo. It's not a dealbreaker if the story is good but you tend to notice that the producers and makeup designers didn't do their homework or didn't care.

Happy Days became notorious in its later seasons for being set in the 1950s and '60s but having hairdos and clothing styles from the 1970s and '80s.

MASH was a repeat offender. Especially in the BJ Hunicutt era.

Wow. Hair trigger, much?

It looks like a grotesque exaggeration of one. That's my point.

It's a less-than-perfectly rendered animation drawing. Heaven forfend, alert the media!

Decaf.

And skip the paragraph about how since this is a drawing that TPTB intended to be used for publicity it's surprising that it wasn't finally examined and deemed flawless before release.
 
As to Wonder Woman's hair, it's an animated film. It might be in the middle of a bounce. See Black Canary's hair in the same image.

Yes, I know what a bloody pompadour is, I'm not an idiot, so don't talk down to me.
Turnabout is fair play.

Speak for yourself. Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to enjoy my can of Pepsi Free and this Twinkie while I play Atari 2600.
Are you playing Pepsi Invaders?

Yeah, if you look you can see that she's in the middle of taking a step, so I think they just caught it while it was bouncing.

Yes, that's easy to see, but it's still bizarrely drawn. At the very least, it's a poor frame to use as our first look at the film.
 
I've seen plenty of 1940s movies, and I don't recall a lot of beehive hairdos that made women look like lopsided Coneheads.

It sure seemed like you did NOT know, since you didn't use the word.
Wow, I'm just sharing information. :shrug:
Looks like one to me.

Well @Nerys Myk , *i* appreciate you being helpful.

I will try to do some research to see if anyone else would actually know.

Oh, and if you thought your helpful post (which I agree with you... it DOES look like THAT style rather than a beehive), just don't tell him that you think red thing on the traditional Superman looks like underwear...

Poor choice...maybe. But...

As to "bizarrely drawn," plenty of animation inbetweens and poses just short of a rest look wacko if you pluck a frame out. In the flow of motion all that's important is that it feels right.
