Kaycee7: WW84 was advertised as a Superhero experience, therefore, the blame for failing to actualize its own projections lies strictly on the studio. Consumers dissatisfaction is completely excusable. Having said that, I enjoyed the film. |

Kaycee7: Kaycee7: A superhero has superpowers. In a superhero movie, the superhero is expected to use his or her superpowers. In short, action is expected where superpowers are involved. Okay, the director of the WW84 movie decided not to do much action- no problem. However, the drama in the movie was not even good drama. The bad guy was a joke. A forgettable snake-oil salesman. The plot was ridiculously filled with plot holes and ra.pe. The ending was quite foolish and the bad guy got no comeuppance- apparently, crime pays. 2 Likes |

DandeNumeruno: Stop speaking from both sides of your mouth. That last sentence is contradictory. You wanted action and didnt get it but you enjoyed it? Please, what did you enjoy? The forgettable villain? The flimsy logic of the way the wishes were granted? The ra.pe of the Steve Trevor body double? The nonsense fight between cheetah and wonderwoman? Really? 2 Likes |

DandeNumeruno:Superhero experience doesn't directly imply a total action package. There was quite enough action sequences in the movie. The arguments I understand are those complaining that the action sequences in themselves were not satisfying. I don't really agree with that opinion but I can understand it. |

Kaycee7: Let's not kid ourselves, WW84 is a very flawed cinematic representation... but I don't overthink Superhero movies. I know they're within the boundaries of fantasy and thus, would be farcical to rationalize them in accordance with real life scenerios. Basically, I shut off my brain and try to appreciate them for what they are. In a similar vein, I was able to appreciate WW84 for its pros, and ignore the cons. |

AbdulSleeky: You know, it might be a foreign concept to you, but not everything is black and white. It's conceivable to appreciate a film and still have the option to recognize every one of its imperfections. |

DandeNumeruno:I'm not saying WW84 is a great movie. It's just decent. But it definitely doesn't deserve all the hate it's been getting. I'd really like to hear your cons. Perhaps I might finally understand what I've been failing to notice |

AbdulSleeky, this is so below the belt. How can someone say that where he passes his fecal matters is smarter than where your most creative thoughts are supposed to reside? We need a new referee on this thread and I am temporarily volunteering for the post till a permanent one is appointed. Kaycee7: |

My grouse with WW84 wasn't that the director failed with her attempt at adding "soul" to the movie; I mean Endgame had a lot of soul in it, but culminated in a wonderful fight scene. My grouse with WW84 was that the final fight scene was yawn-inducing. After all the unnecessary elonagated storyline, the fight scene was just bleh. One of the worst fight scenes I've watched in a superhero movie in recent times. I was too hyped for it hence my disappointment. I expected a lot more after the initial progress of its prequel. 1 Like |

AbdulSleeky: Yea, very interesting. I stand with Dande. For example: My gripe with WW84; how the fvvk did they magical grant countries worldwide nukes and didn't deem it fit to give Nigeria some few dozens? Imagine giving fvvking neighboring Cameroon, Chad and Cote d'Ivoire of all people. Patty Jenkins needs serious lashings of koboko aswear.

Beorn: I don't understand why you peeps keep crying bout the Action and ending in WW84. Patty Jenkins doesn't have OTT action/fight sequence as her strong suit. That's in the purview of Zack. If the Original Wonder Woman is anything to go by, you'd have known Jenkins isn't too good with final battle or endings. She kinda messed up Ares final battle with Diana and fans weren't cool with it. That was even the major gripe of that movie. I didn't overly expect much and I wasn't disappointed. |

abduleez1: Wait, so she was the woman that messed the Ares and Diana final battle? Didn't even know. Why did they allow her direct the sequel then? They'd have chosen another person to direct WW84. Better fight scenes would've papered over whatsoever cracks the movie might have had. |
