Your ideal Big Bad Wolf portrayal (in other media)?
Since there is still no news about TWAU Season 2 (grrrrrrrrr), and #150 (or TPB volume 22) is still about 3 months away....sigh (though not too long until TPB Volume 21 is released I guess), I thought about starting a new discussion.
If Bigby's Big Bad Wolf form was portrayed either on a TV series or a film, what would be your ideal impression of it? We know the Fables movie has been in development hell for years (and god knows, how many more years until they decide to go into production....), so I just wanted to discuss.
My ideal portrayal would be Big Bad Wolf would have a presence, which is a mixture between T-Rex and Velociraptor in the first Jurassic Park film, and the Godzilla from the recent Godzilla film.
Like the T-Rex, Big Bad Wolf would be a terrifying force of nature, with ground maybe shaking (like T-Rex did in first appearance) when he is not stealthily moving. But unlike the T-Rex, Big Bad Wolf would be cunning, quickly adapting to new environment, new strategies for a different opponents, like the Raptors from Jurassic park films (but Bigby would be smarter than them, Raptors are minimum benchmark in terms of intelligence).
As for Godzilla influence, Big Bad wolf would have iconic howls that all Fables (whether human or animal Fables) identify with, and the "huff-and-puff" is powerful enough to start a hurricane (like Godzilla has his iconic Atomic breath).
Those are my thoughts, but how would you like the Big Bad Wolf to be portrayed?

I would want Bigby to be portrayed as closely to his Fables counterpart as possible.
For me, they just need to make Bigby look like something that is worthy of being called The Big Bad Wolf! XD
Well, basically Id want him to be the same as the comic, but I would want them to always make him look terrifying
I'm sure bigger and badder than the wolves from Twilight. Although In TWAU he kinda looks like a young/puppy wolf (but y'know 1000x bigger) to me. But splash some blood here and there and show his fangs, he'll look badass.
TWAU Bigby looks surprisingly similar to Fables Bigby... He looks 'sweet' I guess until he bares his teeth, then he looks fucking scary! XD
Of course Bigby in Big Bad Wolf should look as close to the Fable comic as possible (after all, he is a wolf).
I wanted to delve into something beyond that though (not just the looks). What sort of presence would he have when the audience sees him?
When he was in his old days, I'd like his presence to be like a god of wrath, scary as @#$%^ to all Fables, that they shriek with terror just at his mere presence (hence my descriptions in my post).
After all, despite having reformed he is the god of all monsters, and we wouldn't wanna see a big puppy like appearance (during his time in homelands) now, would we?.
Oh I would expect everyone to be scared of him, that's the whole point of his creation.... You know he is a good guy, but you still fear what those teeth and claws could do to you
Imagine him standing just a few inches away from you with this face
Honestly, I'd shit my pants
If Bigby has an evil clone... this is it! :O
See what I mean totally a puppy face.....if it had rabies and was ready to bite your throat out.
