Wonder Woman being successful is important for women because that character really is the only top-tier female superhero in comics that approach the level of star characters like Superman, Spider-Man etc. and has held her own in a longstanding solo comic series  There are other great female comic superheroes but most female characters are part of a team like X-Men or Avengers (Storm, Scarlett Witch etc) or just aren't on the same level of popularity as Wonder Woman historically (She-Hulk, Supergirl etc).

Anyways, for those reasons I don't think this necessarily means many more female superhero movies will come since, as I said, there is a major lack of historically mega-popular female heroines in comics.

Also, I think female protagonists have proven they can lead blockbuster movies, like Hunger Games & Star Wars: A Force Awakens so I don't think Wonder Woman bombing at box-office would have changed that dramatically..unless it was well-reviewed and still bombed.
