Four minute short that is in fact the first time Wonder Woman appeared on film.
This is a little confusing. Due to the comical acting and the sound of the 1966 Batman narrator, when I watched this I thought it was trying to follow in the footsteps of the campy Adam West Batman series? Instead of being a campy superhero series it was going for the all out sit-com format seen in I Dream Of Jeannie and Bewitched.
Now I get it - but I don't like it.
I personally wish they tried for the less obvious Batman-style of comedy as, when this was made in 1967, there were a few silly fantasy sitcoms doing the rounds, and this probably seemed rather routine.
Others seem to find 1967 Wonder Woman rather amusing but not me. At the time of this review this short can only be found on Youtube, and if it has been taken down, you have not missed much. Basically, it looks like it was thrown together on a Sunday afternoon and the only things of interest are the Batman narrator and the sound of some known 20th Century Fox music cues. Forget it.
