I like how at the end the dude doesn't know she fucked him while he was unconscious

My wife made a comment about how he would be pissed if he knew. I told her, no, he'd probably be cool with it. Especially if he had cameras set up in his house. Plus, it looks like he's got a shot with her.

Wait a minute, so that jet they got into was supposed to be a display piece at the Smithsonian?

My take on it was that she had a secret lair in the back of the smithsonian where she kept the plane trevor stopped to gawk at (assuming that was his plane but my memory is shit so I'm not sure) and those jets that she used.

WW has always been able to fly. With or without the jet. Well, maybe not always, but for sure in the 80s and 90s comic books.

Well that would explain it. I have always hated comic books. My exposure to superheroes is only in movies, cartoons, and TV shows.

One of the bigger plot holes is that PedroGenie go out of his way to mention you can only wish once, but Witt first wishes to be like Diana, then later wishes again to be an Apex predator hence we get the furries wet dream on screen.

I caught that too, but she supposedly reverses her wish on the plane during that conversation. Several parts of the movie just expect you to fill in a lot of stuff on your own. The stuff it does explain is done so in 5 words or less and you can miss it or it never explains it at all. I just think its nutty that you cant criticize this movie anywhere without people thinking you're being anti-girl power or something.

I didn't catch that she renounced her wish, but it would explain why WW was able to knock her out. If she had all of WWs powers as a base PLUS the apex predator stuff she shouldn't have been able to hurt her with water and electricity without also hurting herself.

But yeah I think the official story is that lord powered her up by taking things from people who wished, not as a separate wish. Where that falls apart is, who the fuck had leopard fur and claws for him to take as payment for their wish? Were cats wishing for their owners to die? That's actually totally believable. Cats are assholes.

people would be shitting all over the movie if they had to pay $15+ for it and make the trek out to theaters.

If I didn't have the option to spend $30 and go to an empty theater I wouldn't have even seen it yet. We have HBO max but we can never seem to find time to watch movies at home. This was the best movie experience I've had in years. I fucking hate people and they didn't sell the seats on either side of us so there was plenty of buffer. Normally we have to wait a month to see a movie like this with this light of a crowd and even then it's not guaranteed that some asshat won't sit right next to you.

power creep like Superman, etc.

"faster then a speeding bullet, able to leap tall buildings, stronger then a locamotive"
"faster then the speed of light, able to fly, stronger then a black hole."


WW scaled up along with Superman to keep her on top of every other female superhuman. She can fly, because supergirl/powergirl can fly. Shes bulletproof now becuase they and others are bullet proof. WW is ALSO now faster then supergirl, powergirl, the flashes, etc too. Becuase WW can't not be the female, best at everything. Like Superman is the best at everything with powers, and Batman is just the best at everything, with or without powers.

Yeah DC has always had problems with power levels.

Better take that up with the costume designers

Wonder Woman 1984's Maxwell Lord is a Trumpian Villain For Our Time | Den of Geek

lol. So we got some stock photos of successful 80's businessmen and Trump was one of them. MAX LORD WAS BASED ON DONALD DRUMPH!!!!!!11111!!1one!!11 If you ask me, pedro's character looks more like Limbaugh with hair than Trump. I bet he was on their vision board too.

What I learned from the article is that max lord was an established character in the comics which makes it an even bigger joke that people are trying to say he's trump.

I just realized ... WW84 ripped off the plot of the movie so bad that they literally refer to the plot they stole from the entire movie, lol.

Do you mean monkeypaw? Because that's not what monkeypaw was. This wish totem took your most precious thing as payment. The Monkeypaw just corrupted your wish.

How long are you going to suck WW84’s dick for? Kidding

If she has a dick I'll suck it.

But until they make a garbage WW by DC standards. Much as anyone wants to shit on it, they have to admit its still in the top tier of DC movies.
