These look more like senior pictures than promotional shots.

A cape has to look cool and not get in the way and there are seven other stipulations but this garment has already failed

I will check out the movie tho I have no concerns with miss Carol

The cape is actually a long vest. Very popular in the early 70s.

it is an early example of modern spectacle over substance movie with SFX being the main character.

It's funny to ridicule bad ideas. Like, super-men obviously have more super-fuckoff than super-women but also it's a deception ha.ha.

the thing with bad ideas is that it is a fascinating thing to discuss even though they're bad. it is culture industry weaponizing morbid curiousity
