Ya they pretty much adopted the Snyder aesthetic for that last fight, which they could've done without, even though I like Snyder.
Finally got a chance to see this a couple days ago. Absolutely loved it. Also really impressed that a 9pm Tuesday night showing of a movie that came out a month ago still had a packed audience. Glad this is doing so well.
I think this film is fine, but I'm surprised it's been so critically acclaimed. There's nothing about the story that is particularly unique or great, it was all very predictable. It's probably the most coherent DCEU movie so far, but that's not saying much lol. Overall, I'd probably give it a solid 6/10, but I won't be in a rush to rewatch it anytime soon.
I'm not sure what banning the movie accomplishes. Are they going to start banning any movie with an Israeli actor/actress?
Lebanon bans ‘Wonder Woman’ in protest against Israeli actress Gal Gadot Why So Many People Care That Wonder Woman Is Israeli What is BDS?
the Palestinian/Israeli conflict isn't something I research and create opinions on. I was just asking what the end goal of the bans will be.
It's moved up to the #2 domestic film on the year. #3 in DC films domestically, only behind The Dark Knight and Rises. In the DCEU, it passed Suicide Squad and MoS in foreign markets, grossing the second highest behind BvS. Still $100 million behind that, which likely won't change much.
I like that WB is going to try to get it nominated but I feel like if any comicbook film this year should get a win then it should be Logan.
This was definitely really good for a super hero movie but it doesn't deserve anything but maybe technical Oscars at all imo
If I could only give one comic book film a Best Picture nom, it'd be Logan, but I also don't care about awards and am happy with any comic book film that I like getting any positive recognition. The first major modern superhero adaptation starring a woman getting all of the recognition can't really be a bad thing.
I can get behind Patty winning Best Director but if this film is nominated for Best Picture then I will be really confused. The Dark Knight and The Avengers were not nominated for Best Picture, so Wonder Woman getting nominated would be absurd.
I'm fine with it being nominated, but the third act is just not conducive of being named Best Picture worthy.
mediocre movies get nominated for best picture every year. This is better than plenty of them. Then again, quality isn't the driving factor for Academy Awards nominations.
