My gf and I are on COVID quarantine, so spending two and a half hours just laughing and baffled by almost every choice in this movie was a nice treat We opened it up by asking "is the stream messed up or did they choose to make the font look that shitty?" It was their choice. So 1980's! lmfao
It wavers throughout the movie. Some parts are entertainingly bad, some parts are uncomfortably bad, other parts just are bland and drag.
I thought the movie was fun and entertaining enough where I have no regrets for watching it anyways. Just cringe dialogue at parts and dull sections. They could have trimmed so much of the runtime by just removing some extremely long and drawn out camera shots of background things that offered nothing to the plot
i watched batman returns and while there’s nothing interesting about pointing this out, catwoman in that movie is basically i’m-you-but-stronger to cheetah in practically every way
What do we consider top tier in this DCEU? I liked Wonder Woman 1 and Shazam, and heard some good buzz around Aquaman and Birds of Prey, but it's otherwise all been meh. Unless we count things outside of this particular universe like The Dark Knight
Honestly I had the most fun with aquaman. It’s not the best DCEU movie but probably the one I enjoyed the most.
Yeah, to me, if a "top tier" is like a "top 5", this movie definitely falls under that umbrella in this current DCEU. Not that it means it's any good
Birds of Prey & the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn is my favorite by a very large margin. Then, Shazam! is my second favorite by a similarly sized margin.
I saw someone talk about how Wonder Woman doesn't ever fly in BvS and JL even though now we know she could. I'm also confused about how much of a public superhero Wonder Woman is by the time BvS/JS happen. She didn't seem to be hiding at all in that shopping mall sequence or in the car chase.
yeah but she kept telling everyone to make sure seeing her in costume was their little secret and I’m sure they all kept it to themselves for the rest of their lives
Going into this movie, that was absolutely a concern I had. I felt like WW's "arc" in the DCEU up to this point was sort of like "she stepped into the world of men, became a hero but because of the experience couldn't continue on that path until convinced otherwise by Bruce" ... which sort of sucks that BVS, as far as I remember, made it so that she needed coaxing to become a hero again rather than her inherent desire to do good, or to have her come to that decision on her own. I would easily pretend that BVS never existed and take this as the next logical step in Diana's journey following the first WW ... if any of that made any sense haha.
