It takes something pretty incredible to stand out from the constant flood of superhero movies bombarding our movie theaters these days, but it looks like Wonder Woman has very much managed to forge her own identity in a cinematic world dominated by men. The film took over $100 million on its opening weekend in the US alone, which, somewhat ironically, beat Fifty Shades Of Grey for the highest grossing movie ever directed by a woman, and as you can see from this series of uplifting tweets, the film hasn't just succeeded financially; it's also had quite an emotional impact on audiences as well. Scroll down to see what we mean, and then get out there and go see Wonder Woman!

Princess Buttercup from The Princess Bride and Princess Leia from the original Star Wars, for those too young to remember ;)

Saw the movie...I get why this was such an important movie for women. I get it.Far as I'm concerned,one of the best superhero films I've ever seen,since Captain America... But this was different than any other I've seen,really. To all the women I've known,and the ones I don't...about time,you know?

I saw someone else comment on how it was refreshing to see the heroine of a movie from a female director's point of view. I hope we see more of that in the future.

Yeah, chocolate is unnecessary as well, but I'm still going to enjoy it.

Maybe if a woman worthy of the Presidency had run...you know, without stealing the nomination from the guy that actually HAD a chance.

Good choice, but keep in mind that you will also need a sword at certain moments.

Hey, if Bryce Dallas Howard can run from a T-Rex in heals, this should be a piece of cake.

I really love the fact that so many actresses and female famous people are supporting this movie and sending messages to patty jenkins, AND people that work at marvel are doing the same thing, chris evans, mark ruffalo, hemsworth, etc etc

Ironically, the thing I noticed about this is that DC needs to quit making everything so dark.

Probably because WoC still get largely ignored and passed over for directing and female writers get overlooked.
