I'm afraid they'll do with Augusta what they've often done with movie Minerva: make her silly rather than formidable. Of course, there's a touch of canon comedy about both of them, which is fine; they don't have to be made into paragons. But most of that humor comes in the context of their sternness and ferocity and genuine strength (and they have real, believable flaws, too). I fear the movies will just go for "funny old lady" and find the humor in the supposed incongruity of an old woman being a fighter.
