Tom Hanks is a terrific actor. It pains me that he's getting old.

The good actors are not yet born

Sometimes studio interference is not always bad

TheCreatorVerse:
The suit was easily destroyed, and it was said to have held back men of old.

she should have left the suit alone, the world is in danger, but wonder woman ran back home put on that obviously difficult to wear armor and then eyeliner.

The suit existed so that they could show it off in the trailer

BlackManta:
The big actors like Henry Cavil and Ben Affleck would never pick on WB like this...

Even Jared Leto didn't attack WB like this when they shortchanged him with Phoenix Joker movie
.

These actors have been in the industry a long time and they know that it's useless fighting a big company like Warner Bros....


Someone should tell Ray Fisher to stop fighting a loosing battle. He is going to destroy his career with his own hands, a career that has barely kicked off.

What is he complaining about?

TonySpike:
True...

I'm one of the few people who enjoyed Man of Steel

philfearon:
Flight is one of Superman's signature ability. You can't do a Superman film without Superman flying.

Anything is possible.
Afterall, Smallviell ran for over 9 seasons before Clark could fly

This sounds like a murder suicide.
How do you misfire and kill two people??

Why not share a face mask that can be washed and reused?

Wonder Woman ‘84
WARNING: this post is long. Though I will try to highlight some of the main points so that lazy people like me can read it at a glance.

Wonder woman 1984 is a 2020 sequel to the 2017 Wonder Woman that was directed, co-written and co-produced by Patty Jenkins.
The movie was competently shot and the CGI is mostly good, though some scenes in the Amazon Olympics and the Egypt chase sequence didn’t look too good.

I liked Chris Pine in this movie. The whole fish out of water stuff they did with him were well handled and they didn’t take it to a point where it became annoying.

The[b]acting was good IMO[/b] , even though some people say that Gal Gadots acting leaves a lot to be desired.

The fight and action scenes where just there- Not too bad but not to good either. The WW vs Cheetah fight was 70 percent swinging around which I didn’t care much for. I would have preferred more hand to hand combat. As a matter of fact, there is an animated WW vs Cheetah fight I watched sometime ago which was way better than the one in the movie. If I find it on YouTube, I will insert it HERE.

Even though it felt kinda random, I like that WW is able to make things invisible instead of the comic canon where she has an invisible jet. Why the Bleep would the Amazonians who are technologically backwards in every facet of life have a jet plane lying around? Whether knowledge of flying a World War 1 plane can be used to fly a jet plane some 60+ years later is still a matter that is open for debate.

I was enjoying this movie when I started watching it, however, as the movie progressed, I found it to be increasingly silly, and when the movie ended on a very ret@rded note, it ended up soaring some of the things I had liked in the beginning. So, here are some of the issues I have with the movie. Some of them are nit-picks and quite minors, while others are major and quite immersion breaking.

1. Why is this movie set in the 80’s : at the end of this movie, I still couldn’t quite figure out why this movie was set in the 80’s. This time period added nothing to the story except from breaking some of the already established continuity such as the fact that WW refused to offer help to humanity before BVS and also that she could fly. This movie could have been set after BVS or Justice League and it would not have affected the story in any way.
2. The amazon Olympics was pointless: and just served to further pad the run time. The first WW movie started with Diana as a child in Theymiscira so why did they choose to rethread this route again? The whole Olympics didn’t factor into the story in anyway. Initially I thought that the lesson the Amazonian guard thought Diana about not taking short cuts would factor into the plot, but no. the whole movie plays out like that scene never happened. So why was it in the movie?
3. Campy mall fight: the whole mall fight was extremely campy like something you would see in a Spiderman movie. Considering the tone of the first movie, I didn’t expect this level of camp from the sequel.
4. Rapist wonder woman: I think that the whole WW is a rapist argument is bullsh1t. Though the decision to bring Chris Pine back in the body of another man was very questionable. The stone has proven time and time again that it can make anything materialize from nothing, so why couldn’t Chris Pine come back in his own body? And the worst part is that they didn’t even do anything with the whole coming backing in another person’s body shenanigans. It was just a random stupid choice that was made for no reason.
5. Dumb McGuffin: the McGuffin that gets the plot moving in this movie is not properly handled. The dream stone is supposed to be a monkey’s paw rip-off that grants you your wish with a dash of irony like the Midas touch or somethings like that. However, this stone has zero consequences. People use the dream stone, then renounce their wish and then there is no lasting consequence. If you can renounce your wish and go back to the way you were with no consequences, then it makes perfect sense to use the dream stone. Even if I have to pay a price that I don’t like, I would simply take back the wish at my leisure.
6. Villain’s motivation: Max Lord, the villain of the movie is a shady business man who goes on a wish granting spree because he is motivated by greed. However, it makes absolutely no sense that he keeps on granting more and more wishes even though he clearly see that the world is getting destroyed. How enjoyable does he think his wealth and power will be when the whole world is in ruins? And it is never shown that the magical McGuffin is somehow influencing his decisions.
And to make matters worse, the wish granting debacle is taken to a whole new ridiculous level at the third act of the movie. In a shocking lack of introspection or self-awareness, Max Lord decides that he is going to grant to wish of millions at once. This could have gone wrong very fast.
For starters, it is most probable that most people will not believe the whole wish granting stuff and as such, they will be more likely to take it as a joke.
Imagine if someone wished for the whole world to end or that the annoying man who is talking in the TV to drop dead. It’s even extremely likely that thousands of people will wish to be richest or most powerful person that has ever lived, thus, invalidating anything Max Lord himself would have achieved.

7. Villains defeat: I’m someone who enjoys when a villain is defeated in an unconventional way. In most movies, the villain is defeated when the hero punches him several times in the face and I appreciate it when a movie thinks outside the box. For instance, in Dr. Strange, the titular character managed to defeat Dormamu- the villain by bargaining with him. In Aladdin, the villain get tricked into turning himself into a genie. This movie tries to go a similar route and FAILS MISERABLY.
Humans beings are self-centred and will always look out for themselves and their interests first and as such, it will be impossible to get everyone to take back their wish. What the movie should have done is to make it in such a way that when Max Lord renounces his wish, every wish he granted will also be automatically reversed, but instead, they show people from all over the world having a change of heart and renouncing their wishes, which as far as I’m concerned is total bullsh!t.
If your husband/father beats the shi+ out of you every day and you wished that he will love you unconditionally, will you take such a wish back?
If you had a relation that was terminally ill and you wished for instant recovery, will you take such a wish back and then watch then go back to their sick bed?
If you have been poor all your life and then wished to be rich, will you take back such a wish?
I could go on and on and the answer to most of these scenarios will be a CAPITAL NO.

Other things:
• This movie does that bullsh!t that I hate so much where a character wears baggy clothes and glasses and suddenly the whole world hates them. Kristen Wig is hot even when she is nerdy, so I find it very out of place that she is very despised by everyone.
• Barbara’s arc: maybe I’m wrong here, but from what I saw, the only consequence Barbara faced with using the dream stone was the she became aggressive and lost her sh1t personality and no one liked in the first place. She didn’t really give-up anything worthwhile and as such, it does make perfect sense for her to align with the bad guy.
• The[b]golden armour[/b] existed solely for the purpose of appearing in the trailer, it served no purpose to the movie and could have been removed from the final cut with no detriment to the story.
• Why does electricity affect Cheetah but not WW?

Like I mentioned in a previous post, this movie is enjoyable in a turn-off-your-brain kind of way. If you don’t think about what is going on, odds are you’ll enjoy the move. However, the truth still remains that this movie pales in comparison to the prequel in every way possible. It’s still enjoyable but to say the truth the movie is not that good. The DCEU feels incredibly random at this point and it feels like they just throw stuff at the wall and hope that it sticks.
5.5/10

Freemasonry:
I've come to understand that it's almost normal for the hoi polloi to hate privileged people. I don't really understand the psychology behind that but I know it's unhealthy and silly. Instead of misdirecting such misguided hate on people whose fathers made money why not hate your father who couldn't make it.

Take for instance, a few years ago Paddy Adenuga had published an inspiring article where he shared his struggles in business and how he succeeded, but in a bizarre twist of narrative the haters attacked him and alluded to the fact that his father's money did this and did that.

Shortly after, Dj Cuppy was also bullied online by people who believes she has no business being a dj, let alone a popular one at that. To them it's her affluent background that's doing the trick not her talent.

The same with Davido. No matter what he does, how many awards he wins, or cool tunes he drops, he'll never be good enough for these people who believe he didn't earn his place at the table.

Instead, they revere and respect those they think are from the streets even when these people are nothing short of mediocre. A case in point is the current frosty relationship between Davido and Burna boy, how did it all start? Both of them were chummy until Burna boy made a disparaging remark about Davido's father buying fame for him. This was not only in bad taste but smacks of obvious jealousy. That you struggled to climb up the ladder due to lack does not make you better, or mean that those who have the resources to advance their dreams or careers must suffer like you before their talents can be validated.

And if the eyewitness account in the media is anything to go by, then it’s obvious that this unfortunate incident was all Burna boys doing. He showed up at the club with 6 hired goons and went straight to the VIP section where Davido was sitting to confront him. Although this is yet to be verified but judging from Burna boy’s propensity for violence it is highly probable that is what happened.

It’s time people do away with this wrong notion that privileged kids don’t deserve what they have. No matter how hard they work there’s always someone who thinks that without their money they’d probably not make it that far, but nothing could be farther from the truth. These kids work just as hard as the poor kids, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with using what you have to advance yourself. I mean you can’t hate on these kids just for being rich as if they’re the ones that stopped your father from making money. It’s wrong and it’s in bad taste.

Instead of hating divert that energy into making money so your kids won’t be just like you. Shout out to David. Keep keeping it a 100.

Even though there are people who unjustly hate/envy rich kids, some of tthe examples you mentioned are not so on point.

For instance, you have some of them claiming that they achieved this and that and if they can do it, so can you.
This kind of statement shows an incredible lack of self awareness, considering that their background gave them a boost that most people don't have.

I thoroughly hate this YouTuber and his voice is also super annoying.

He takes the whole anti-sjw stuff a whole new ret@rded level.
To him, everything is always feminist/sjw conspiracy.

is this not ebo?

Wonder Woman '84 reminds me of Terminator: Dark Fate.
These movies are enjoyable in a turn-off-your-brain kind of way because when you start thinking about it, nothing makes sense.

I'll be dropping my spoiler filled review shortly.

hakeem4:
From the list above I can deduce that west Africa east Africa and central Africa are the most underdeveloped regions

I think this list is partial. Are they trying to say that no European nation, Asian or South American nations are horrible?

European
Is the writer from business insider trying to say countries like Croatia and Serbia are doing far better than Nigeria even after the ustache war and the Vukovar massacre in 1991? Or other East European nation?

asian, Middle East
Is the writer trying to say countries like Iran, Iraq Turkmenistan, Syria all doing better than Nigeria? With the chaos going on in most countries there.

I can’t believe that no South American country made this list

Even though I don't agree with some of what you wrote, it's weird that Venezuela is not on the list

Clinton12345:
THey deleted the NCDMB thread

Why

TheKingIsHere:
Remember when I said that Pattinson Batman will be in the DCEU? Guess who was right?

Confirmed by Hamada himself

If these people had a solid road map, they won't be making critical decisions such as this on the fly.

TheHulk616:
wonder woman was not flying, she was just jumping high and swinging using planes, lightning and bullets.

Flying can be seen in MCU movies and man of steel

She could fly.
Right before she started swing on lightening, she was flying.

Apparently Wonder Woman forgot she could fly in BVS and Justice League.

If only the DCEU had a solid road map...

TheHulk616:
Wonder woman is flopping in box office. And it's not because of covid19

It's obviously due to Corona


It's still due to Corona.
A lot of people don't want to take to risk of going to cinemas

Topmaike007:
which film be this?

Wonder Woman '84

Laugh wan burst my belle when Barbara pronounced this name

I just started watching Wonder Woman '84 and one thing kept bugging me.
Didn't Batman say that Diana hid herself away from the world and refused to help people in either BVS or Justice League or am I remembering it wrong?

Wonder Woman 1984


First off, I see absolutely nothing wrong with this movie.


People just have this prejudiced notion that a comic book adaption should be an action scenes fest all through which explains why a lot of people have issues with Joaquin Phoenix "Joker".





3.3/4 for me.

I don't consider Joker as a comic book movie

MJBOLT:

WW84 will join Shazam in my list of DC movies to avoid

Lol.
I thought I was the only one that despised Shazam
