There's something really sexy about Scrooge McDuck. I love Uncle Scrooge.

I thought the Wonder Woman trailer looked really good, but that's all the Snyder look is, just making cool moments for trailers.

I know he's not directing this one, but he is writing and it still looks extremely Snyder-y, so he clearly has a lot of influence.

A Zack Snyder color palette is actually appropriate for a movie set during WW1.

Sure, but less so during the parts of the movie where she's still on the Amazonian island.

Did you know that as an Amazon she should only have one breast? Also she should be hairy. I know this and have written a thinkpiece.

I love the women's-only showing of Wonder Woman just because of how easy it is to make misogynist/alt-right/pick-a-term guys spontaneously combust. I think men riding metro buses with Wonder Woman ads on the side should have to sit in the back.

How do I bring up the possibility that Wonder Woman could be being graded on a curve because of gender politics without sounding like a piece of poo poo?

it sucked when ghostbusters (TWENTY SIXTEEN IT SUCKS I HAVE TO DO THIS) came out and was criminally unfunny, had bad effects, and was edited like poo poo because thanks to the red pill crowd if you said anything bad about it you suddenly hated women. it was legitimately a bad movie by people who either hated the original film or had no idea why it's a classic.

I feel like 90% of the discussion around that movie ended up being "It's bad, but not for sexist reasons" so I don't think there was a sudden surge of misogyny accusations.

Nah, it was all "grr womz" and "no, you see this movie is a grand monument to womanhood because". You're remembering the Something Awful discussion which was a bit more sane than that of the wildlands of the Internet/confused reporting.

Like, go through the reviews on rottentomatoes or other aggregator. All of them devote at least 1/3 of their length to internet shitstorms about womz/sexism. It sure didn't help Sony decided to damage control via whining about internet sexists (pre-emptively inserting a 'whining about sexist youtube comments' scene in the movie, bringing the issue up in every loving promo interview, etc.).

There was also this weird thing where half of positive reviews just drank the kool aid and pretended the movie was good and funny (ok, de gustibus) and the other half described each and every aspect of the movie as middling or unsatisfying and yet gave it a high mark in some grand feat of cognitive dissonance.
