surf rock posted:Just on the most basic following-the-plot level, I don't understand why Max Lord was able to take whatever he wanted after granting someone's wish. Did he say "I wish I was the dreamstone but in addition to that I also want to be able to charge people if they use my dreamstone-like abilities" or something? I guess I must've missed it. The stone Exacts a price of "whatever you value most" is payment for granting the wish. Apparently by becoming the stone, he gained the ability to dictate what that price would be more directly

It was really weird to me that de-powered Diana didn't really seem to do a whole lot to show off that she still had something without her power, instead the action scenes aren't much different from full power Diana but she gets hurt sometimes. I don't need her to be helpless, I kinda woulda liked to see her be more clever, I guess. Overall the movie felt super disjointed to me, as someone said, it's like 3 scripts they tried to mash together into one.

Coincidence?! I think not!

The movie kept saying she lost her powers, but she did kick that truck thirty feet into the air, and also was getting new powers, like turning a jet invisible.

When she got shot I was like "OK well that's why she has the bracers" and when she couldn't break the lock I thought it was just a gag about the lock being stronger than the hinge.

I'm gonna go against the tide and say I really enjoyed this! I will agree it's overlong and a step down from the original, but I had a lot of fun. Wiig was loving great.

This was basically just the first movie in a new setting. I never thought though that I would prefer the JRPG final end game boss of the first film over what we got in this for a final act. I'm not necessarily disappointed with WW84, but the first movie is so much better. Needed a lot more editing, which is confusing because WW84 was delayed for an entire additional year, the time could have been spent making the movie better.

This is true for pretty much any superhero IP nowadays, except for Fantastic 4, lol. I mean Suicide Squad gets a sequel. The movie that is partly edited by a trailer-house gets a sequel.

The movie really suffers from the unecessary presence of Steve during the action scenes. They just keep flatlining all the momentium of Wonder Woman's fights to show much more boring poo poo.

This movie was bad. I don't know what the budget went into because everything looked loving cheap as hell. Too long. Super boring. Also I just couldn't get past Steve is living in another guy's body, and nobody really sees a problem with that. Like, that's not even getting into the fact that they have sex. It's super gross when you think about it at all. But then there's just other stuff out there that's like... it doesn't add anything to the story. All of a sudden Diana knows how to make something invisible! And it's her invisible jet! Woo! Except it's only for like 1 minute then tossed aside. Diana just happens to keep some really useful armor in her closet and busts it out and it doesn't really do anything? Then we see Diana learn to fly and all it takes is for her to think about what Steve told her and she's suddenly flying. And not exploring the attraction that she and Barbara had with clear language about being out and instead dropping that completely was stupid. The whole Barbara story just feels half-finished. Honestly this movie feels like a bunch of first drafts thrown together. I don't even think editing this could fix it. It's long, boring, and completely forgettable.

GoE was fun as hell and was a bunch of actors chewing scenery while doing fun things.  Chadwick he loving owned in it.
