I’m 2 minutes in and just noticed, in the first movie she wasn’t even allowed to train until she was a teenager, but she was able to compete in that super dangerous and intricate obstacle course when she was 7?!?
@@IgnizNova Right, but I meant more the fact that her mother didn’t allow her to do anything remotely dangerous until her teenage years in the first film, but in this film she’s doing super dangerous obstacle courses at 7 years old...
Yeah there are several inconsistencies between the first one and other films that wonder woman has been in so far. It's honestly just embarrassingly bad writing
You gotta love a "feminist" movie where the conflict results from one woman being jealous of another woman's looks, and then the boss battle is a literal cat fight.
@@max5845 oh it’s hot garbage juice. I enjoyed it but I was also tripping balls and had fun despite and sometimes due to the camp. I don’t thing many will argue that this movie is a hot mess- but using it as an opportunity to shit on “feminism” is fedora energy
@@jeshuavv8326 I'm not. I'm making fun of how the feminist culture surrounds the Wonder Woman franchise, with a character that is portrayed as heroic and powerful in the first movie, and then in this movie she's literally a husk of a human being without a man, and her main boss battle is a woman who was jealous of her shoes. I just find it amusing that a director such as Patty Jenkins, whose work often has feminity as a major theme, honestly thought that this movie effectively communicated that theme as well.
My wife really wanted to see this because she liked the first one. She fell asleep halfway through. We tried again to watch it about a week later. She fell asleep again. So I've had to suffer through it twice while she blissfully napped.
If it was that bad, why the heck didn't you turn it off (both times) when she fell asleep. If she woke and asked why the movie had stopped then tell her you paused it while she 'rested her eyes'. I can see that you are either inexperienced or not very good at the husband role in life. 😂😂
I took my kids to see at our local AMC because I want to keep my theater open and fuck giving HBO more of my money. They enjoyed it so money well spent lol
I have chronic insomnia and legitimately can almost never sleep without the aid of medications. And I STILL managed to fall asleep during this masterpiece.
Yeah, it would be "Sir we've lost visual with the target" "I'm still tracking the bogie on radar, missles are tracking, permission to engage" *Fires heat seeking SAM*
Radio waves are light (electromagnetic radiation). A cloaking device that prevents light from being reflected back to its source will indeed make the cloaked object undetectable to radar. Don't worry: there are still 1000 reasons to hate this movie.
@@joshuathorpe6734 depends. Just because something can bend light of the visual spectrum does not mean if can effect radar. We already have material that is Infrared invisible for instance
“Success should be earned, not given,“ says the woman born with invincibility, super strength, immortality, regeneration, and apparently also flight, and turning things invisible and intangible to radar but tangible to human butts.
@@ddd8828 Visible light and radio (upon which "RAdio Detection And Ranging" aka "radar" depends) are just different frequencies of electromagnetic radiation. Apparently the invisibility also applies to radar. You know, "Radar invisibility" like stealth is? So it's possible to do both to an object the size of a Tornado/F-111 Aardvark hybrid with the same field effect (assuming anyone other than Harry Potter could do it.) Just...not with the tech we have today.
Just like the F35. It's invisible folks! What? You don't need to make things invisible to make them undetectable by radar? Radar is not a visual detection system?
@@stevejordan7275 Hmm I think you are conflating two very different things. Sight involves receiving EMR from objects. So one possible way to be invisible is to bend light around yourself so the observer literally sees around you. Another way is to use cameras to project the image behind you on your own body surface. Radar works by bouncing radio waves off objects and receiving its echo. So how would she be accomplishing both at the same time? The way you say it is obvious but its not obvious to me. Plus you know stealth jets aren't invisible to the eye right?
Not to mention the implication behind the poor man who got body snatched by Steve. Probably lost his job and family and his life is utterly ruined. But you go gurl
Aladdin had a pretty interesting take on the wishing for infinite power thing. Jafar wishing to be a genie for the powers and getting his wish but with the added consequence of being confined to a lamp of his own for all eternity. No Aladdin 2 would ever ruin that.
Dianna: “Check out this moving staircase!” Steve: “Oh, you mean an escalator… a technology invented in the 1880’s and in use when I was alive? Oh goodness... a trash can!”
I know, right? How was he so in awe of a freaking trash can?? Presumably, he'd been walking around in that guy's body for, at least, a few days. He already been out walking the streets trying to find Diana. Are we seriously to believe during all of that he'd never come across a trash can? Man, if that's true than the horse less carriages must've scared the hell out of him. Ha!
@@donxavier10 To be fair, he was not "in awe of a trash can." He was told he was in an art exhibit so he was trying to understand why this trash can was considered art by these future people. Similar to an episode of Columbo where Columbo asks for an explanation of the air vent in a modern art exhibit. He knew what it was, he just wondered if it had some significance in that spot he was not aware of.
@@matthiuskoenig3378 That is not correct. Bakelite, the first completely synthetic plastic, was invented in 1907, patented in 1909 and already used quite a lot in 1914. So even if he had never used, let's say a bakelite telephone, he would surely have heard about synthetic materials and even if _that_ would not have been the case, I highly doubt he would freak out like that about _those._ And how many things made of plastic must he have seen already _before_ that trash can? Why was he not freaking out about, let's say, plastic train seats? Seriously, they've chosen the most ridiculous reasons for him to freak out possible. A completely electrified city could have been impressive. The amount of car traffic. Computers. Women dressing like what might have looked to him like prostitutes. TV, for heavens sake. And anyway - how the hell is it possible that he is crossing half the city without seeing even _one_ magic, awe-inducing trash can all the way? And how and why is he still freaking out about a trash can, when is ability to be excited must have been depleted by now by all those other amazing things he must have seen?
Right? I mean, that suggests that all the wishes were things people didn't really need. What if there were people out there wishing for food or medicine?
and what about the guy that made the very first wish in the movie --- for a coffee. Does he... have to.. vomit it back up? Did he never get it in the first place? He didn't even know he wished for it.
I actually couldn't get through this film. Yes, that bad. When she just suddenly decided that she could fly unexpectedly, I said "okay, I'm done." The whole invisible jet thing and grabbing a bullet FROM BEHIND with her magic lasso almost made me quit, but the flying thing was the final straw.
For the final act when Max grants everyones wishes around the world, im quite surprised that there was no random doomer in his dingy living room wishing that the world would have ended. Just saying.
The best comment I read on another video about this movie was, “I almost walked out of my own house!” I’m still laughing at that one! 🤣😂🤣😂 Original comment by Jonathan B!
One addition. Cheetah gets her powers and automatically kicks Diana's butt. Someone with centuries of combat experience. Didn't have to learn a thing. She was just awesome from the jump.
Yeah, but Kirsten's wish was to be like Diana (presumably the dildo stone included the powers that Kirsten was unaware of it in that deal, as can be seen when her strength massively increases), whilst Diana is simultaneously losing her powers as a consequence of her own wish. The movie is still a piss poor execution of an interesting idea, but that part is consistent with its internal logic.
@@johnallen3033 ugh the Monkey's Paw analogy they kept hitting us over the head with became tiresome quickly. They kept saying how the wishes were analogous to the MP but left out the one aspect that would've completely sunk their story: the MP wishes could not be renounced.
What shocked me the most to A Clockwork Orange level was the movie showing sexual assault of a man is okay. The juxtaposition of Barbara saying no twice is supposed to be a nod to no means no and me too and times up but Wonder Woman having sex with a guy that her boyfriend is in mental possession of while the actual body owner is coma unconscious is disgusting and revolting. I guess the writers of WW84 thought rape of females is bad, but the rape of males is okay if the female assaulter is not ugly. From DC's own website about Wonder Woman, "Wonder Woman has stood for nearly eighty years as a symbol of truth, justice, and equality. Diana has made it her duty to lead by example." To top it off the director Patty Jenkins said, "It's a trope since the 80's, get over it." Patty doesn't understand that sometimes tropes are bad and if you do use a bad trope maybe lampshade the situation, but lampshading is reserved for writers that understand there is a problem to begin with.
Also, shouldn't it traumatize him because he died on explosion on the first Wonder Woman movie? And how the fuck they can fly with a plane in museum which it's supposed to be museum figurine and how did it have fuels?
That's a liberal for you, living in their bubble-like echo chamber. I had thought Patty Jenkins was normal. I never heard anything stupid from her when the first one came out and she seemed concerned only with making a good movie. But now we have the real Patty Jenkins on display with writing credits this time, complete with her self-proclaimed Donald Trump villain. Ugh, i am done with this woman now. I won't see anything else she makes (luckily, I did not see this, and now I won't see it).
LOL OMG that's ridiculous. This is a Trainwreck that I wanted to love..but it's SO MEH, you can't even remember why you started watching it in the first place..
Did anyone notice how Diana's childhood story got rewritten? In the first movie, it shows her training hard as an adult but still getting her ass kicked. In 1984, they made her perfect at 10 years old. She would have won the competition against a bunch of grown Amazons, the only thing that stopped her was her being snatched out of the competition for cheating. It made her skills feel unearned, which totally erased what we learned about her in the first movie. What a disgrace.
First time I watched this movie I was ABSOLUTELY WASTED and it didn't really make any sense to me... The 2nd time I watched it sober and it made EVEN LESS SENSE...
This is also the problem with jumping throughout time as a franchise progresses. They get a new idea or decide to implement an existing one that hasn't been depicted yet (Wonder Woman flying), but they implement in a "new" entry to the franchise set in the past. Multiverse has similar issues where nothing that happens really matters because they can always reset the clock or hop to an alternate reality, but it's much less egregious. Although I still think the Multiverse stuff has its problems but it is undeniable from a cash-grab standpoint.
but if it lets radiation in the visible spectrum pass through, there's no reason it can't also be letting other frequencies pass through. IRL it doesn't work, but magic is magic
In my opinion steve posessing some other body is the most baffling thing about this entire movie simply because there's absolutly no reason why they would do it like this. There's no stated limit on the stone's power so why not have it just recreate the actual steve with it's own body? And when diana has to renounce her wish have steve crumble into dust.
W Steve possessing this rando guys body all I thought of after that is a “special episode “ of Quantum Leap 😂 (the OG one. Not the current made garbage) They should have just thrown Al in there w ziggy and would have been more plausible than this.
@@flaviomonteiro1414 Imagine living the worst live you can. Boom wish helps you undo this and this random person tells you to take it back and go live that live again. Sorry but no i dont think every person will take back their wishes thats just wishfull thinking.
@@mbos14 yeah, i would want better, struggling with dissability my whole life trying to get assistance for it. not able to have much for myself cause lack of security
seriously the battle with Ares was lame with "i believe in love" as a punchline. At least WW84 embraced its cheesyness and tried to go for a positive message with a heartfull speech. Not perfect but i definitely saw the first good DCEU movie
This is the biggest problem when you have leftist woman creating the stuff of our childhood.Hollywood won’t stop until we say no more and watch them lose billions.
This is sort of why I could never get into comic movies...I get so confused because they just don't follow any linear plot. Shit is coming from everywhere and I have no idea what the fuck is going on, or more importantly,..WHY !? lol. The last comic/super hero movies i watched was the first Iron man, and the first two Spiderman movies. That's how annoying it got for me.
My ten year old son pointed out during a trailer that she was flying but wasn't in the Justice League movie. It's bad when a ten year old can point out such things.
The mainstream news in Australia has been singing its praises saying it’s the film we need for 2020, so you instantly know it’s going to be utter shit.
Yeah my wife is fully on board with how amazing ots gonna be without seeing it. About yo call her now to let her know its utter garbage that noone likes
I love how Steve is basically a handbag. Don't worry about hijacking an innocent man to bring your boyfriend back, or dispose of said boyfriend afterwards. He's just an accessory.
It drives me absolutely insane that the climax of the movie involves relying on LITERALLY EVERY HUMAN ON EARTH RENOUNCING THEIR WISHES. I'd be willing to bet not even 5% of those who made wishes would be willing to renounce them; humans are inherently selfish, and would undoubtedly be loathe to give up their deepest wishes come true even to save the world, especially since they generally would be doing so for no apparent gain. I, standing in my living room with my wish granted, would likely notice no difference in the world if I gave up my wish, so why the hell would I? I tend to think of myself as a generally good person, and having my wish taken from me seems like a "Nothing to gain, everything to lose" scenario.
Man of steel in retrospection is actually a really good film. Probably the only DC film you can say that about. (wonder wahman 1 was a racist pile of cr@p)
You know I'm starting to like this logic of "Steve flew a biplane so he can fly a modern jet fighter". I can drive my car so I should be perfectly capable to drive a high performance race car.
Even that analogy is far off. You could at least figure out how to start it and the steering brakes and gear changes. Hell he wouldn’t even know how to open the canopy to get in. Let alone start it , take off flaps retractable landing gear. Speeds to take off /land other flap controls while flying increases decreased power. All the other avionics.It be like saying I rode a tricycle as a child while living noncontacted tribe (besides the tricycle )in the Amazon hopping on a race motorcycle and coming in 1st place
Exactly. I have yet to figure out what was the point of having it in 1984 other that allowing Patty to make a simpler movie. Which is what she made, a simple movie.
Probably a significant number or date to the creator or special issue of wonder woman in the original comics I assume. Cauze why specific on 1984. Why not early 90's? The logic of any superhero movie is there's always an infinite time line so logic is never there 😂
I was waiting for the angry old guy (who you know would be out there) whose football game got interrupted to say " I wish you'd get the 'F' off my TV!"
@@bighands69 Her best role is in The Martian, probably because Ridley Scott told her to shut the f*ck up and stop trying to be funny. She's awful in pretty much everything else.
All I remember about this movie was the horrid special effects. When Diana rescued the two kids towards the end and they all went tumbling, it was so obviously 2 small mannequins. How the he'll did that make it into the final cut?
I love how they posses some random guys body with Trevor's soul, without this guys input at all, constantly put him in danger, and his body and Diana have sex (again with out his input) which is essentially a 4 letter R word, if you reverse the genders and make that a woman who was possessed the movie would get savaged by the SJWs and be shoved into obscurity
Bless you, you're right. You forgot about real life actual laws ( american and especially english) where a woman is not able to be charged with RAPE even though guilty as sin
@@michaelmurphy2112 Well I don't want my body to be possessed by someone else ever lol so count me out. Plus is the guy really experiencing the sex or is his consciousness just shoved aside and is basically asleep? I haven't seen the movie and never will so I don't know.
@@dangerdan2592 The film doesn't really explain it well, tbh, but what little the audience is given basically implies that the poor guy is suppressed so far down in his own body that he's basically comatose and has no shown reaction to being meat-puppeted by Trevor. I'm honestly still horrified that Diana is so blasé about using his body to get her love interest back that she doesn't even reconsider jumping his bones without any consent and just, you know, not being a horrible person. Also, she doesn't apologise to the poor guy for having his body hijacked by Trevor, either, so the poor man is essentially left with a chunk of his memory missing once Trevor returns to the afterlife, too. Although, given that happened to his body while he was down and out, that might've been the closest thing to kindness he got here...
@@Not_Always They didn't even have to go with the Aqua Net flare, just give her a normal bob or the Pat Benatar look that millions of high school girls sported in the early 80s.
During all those scenes where Diana was getting shot and injured I wondered about the same thing…where’s her shield? 🤷🏼♂️ And a woman pining over a guy for 70 years isn’t romantic, it’s psychotic. Girl get help!
I agree it would've been interesting to see Diana deal with the increasing loss of her powers and the reprocussions, stress, and fear it should cause as she loses the abilities she always had so easily. And it would be fun to see the tension and then teamwork as she realizes she needs to rely on Steve more heavily to help her in fights and come up with clever strategy over strength to get around her new weakness. Also we need to see the evidence of the life of the guy Steve took over creeping in on them as his work, friends and family call him and the guilt over stealing his life. In the end wouldn't it be both of them sacrificing the selfish choice with not just Diana but also Steve not willing to steal someones life? They could then at least acknowledge life is precious even if people are flawed. Making just about her broken heart and Steve wanting her to have powers back is disappointing. In Justice League Diana, is portrayed as people weren't worth saving anymore and she only fights if the threat is world devastation. Rather unheroic attitude for a hero movie You know I wonder how the writers miss basic stoey arcs. Dont they read books or watch influential movies? Wait nevermind, DC movies are written by committee.
@@discipleofdeath2517 some are actually pretty good, but 90% of them get made with a budget lower than $1 million, to spend 200x times that and end up with a worse movie is a good achievement, must be in top 10 flops.
I think if they would have done a Vietnam story, with Wonder Woman grappling with the fact humans havent stopped fighting even with Ares dead and deciding her place in that war while trying to hide from the world after what happened to Steve could have been great. Instead we got....something
There was that other little dust up between WW1 and Vietnam, too. Where was she even hiding during 1939-1945? She's into the classical history, was she in Nazi occupied Greece or Mussolini controlled (later Nazi occupied) Italy?
@johnmacleod2487 That's true, like they could have explored what she did during the war and why she let the Nazis rise up without interference, there were sooo many great possibilities that would have all been better than 1984
"Remember the invisible jet? That part of wonder woman that was universally made fun of because it was stupid that a flying goddess would drive it. Lets put it in the movie."
“Not only that, let’s make it integral to the plot, and give no explanation, so that not only will it be ridiculous, it’ll be a ridiculous deus ex machina”
It will be used until the heat death of the universe, maybe even beyond. It's the similar excuse for when female chess players can't compete with male ones. "It's the patriarchy's fault! It makes every single one of the female players BELIEVE they can't so they don't! But they totally could!"
Plenty of male directors and comic book creators trot out the same line over and over again. Have so for decades. It's the go-to cliche insult when they get called out on screwing up and/or making their female character of choice an unlikable bitch instead of a relatable human being.
I really liked the first movie. This movie was awful. Max Lord was a mountain of wasted potential. His comic counterpart is a very powerful telepath. Not a broken conman. Kristen Wig was horribly miscast also.
I don't even think video cameras were even that ubiquitous in 1984. I think only in the later 80's did they become a thing. And even then you had the problem of sufficient storage. They were either just re-recorded over the same VHS tape or used time lapse recording.
seeing diana as a child be able to run and move just as fast as other amazonian women who have been training their whole lives makes it seem like diana is really just someone who got their whole life handed to them. she's already the fastest and strongest without being past the age of 10, talk about working for what you want
Because that’s what women think they are: goddesses who should be loved and adored unconditionally without having to grind. There is a reason why matriarchy never worked anywhere.
@@Memoiana yeah its hilarious how all modern feminist movies nowadays who aim to educate the general public fail at that. We live in a society in which most modern self called feminists are the ones who deep down consider women inferior to men by giving them extra leverage.
There's a line she says about having to let Steve go "Why for once can't I have this one thing?" I don't know who wrote that line or who agreed on it but that line perfectly represents the blatant lack of self awareness of this movie. The first WW I thought was decent, but then I learned Gal Gadot isn't such a great actress and wow does it show in this sequel. Those "emotional" scenes made me cringe. Best thing about this movie was Pedro Pascal imo. But the way his character was written... You can make any wish come true and you want more oil? ...what? And that totally forced in Lynda Carter bit was just the final nail in the coffin.
The whole Amazon Olympics is point less. In the first movie, Diana’s mother WOULDNT allow her to train until she’s a teenager. Yet in WW84, the intro is literally just that training before she’s a teenager.
I knew it! Thank you! I kinda remember this but not really remember the exact word so I don't really think about it but now!!! Yes, this WW84 is a hotpile plot holes garbage movie
It’s even pointless within the scene itself. Though Diana falls off her horse, the horse keeps going as though she was still on it. Her “shortcut” didn’t give her any advantage, and even made her miss one of the arrow targets. Cheated? More like she was a 10 year old who didn’t make the right decision and would’ve lost either way.
Also: max is a genie, Diana raped a man that was in the sunken place that was replaced with Steve, and why was Max’s son Filipino? How would turning the jet invisible matter to radar? How could Steve fly a fighter jet but didn’t know what a trash can was?? My head hurts
How did Steve get directions to fly to Egypt? Also, who was the man who Steve inhabited? Surely he must have known Diana was treating him like someone else 🤔
Salute Drew. That construction work outside reminds me of The Wire, Season 3: synopsis “as Royce employs slightly murky tactics to put off his rival, sending the DPW to dig up the road outside.” Life imitating art. SUSPECT. Keep up the great work!! 🙏👏👏
I feel the opposite actually. I thought the comfort-food visual/pop cultural nostalgia was surprisingly weak compared to those shows. Instead, they tried to lean into an 80's-relevant theme--taking down "Greed Is Good"--and completely shat the bed.
they failed to even meet that comical standard. this felt like a modern era movie where some people decide to dress and act like its still the 80s. oh yeah, just like modern era.
I liked that the first WW had a female hero with female hero characteristics rather than transferring male ones. So I came to this film really looking forward to it: I love the 80s - give me GTA Vice City any day of the week. What a pile of steaming sh.............
For me, they simply took away her warrior. When Zack snyder gave us gal gadot, she was this acient bad ass greek armored grecco warrior goddess, when she clanked those bracelets together and created this godly concussion blast that propels anything. She literally felt like a bad ass greek warrior goddess of peace. Her sword, he shield. Her colors. She was simply perfect. Her fight with stepenwolf I'm zack snyders justice league was all that we needed. I loved her. But they wonder woman 1984 came and took all that away, they took away her warrior and turned her into this overly saturated, cheap, campy Linda Carter spin off. It was awful for me. That lasso was used top much, and the zack snyder wonder woman would have Never let a cat kick her ass. I mean this is the girl who charged headfirst into doomsday and kept him at bay along side superman. Idk why they turned her into a cheap 80s mess but it was a bad idea. When I first heard they were doing it based In the 80s I thought they would be about the Iraq wars or something, or revel circe corrupting man to do large scale evil. I thought they keep her the way she came in, dropping in arms crossed block a beam from a giant evil creature..... man they took away her warrior
Remember when Gal Gadot ended Covid with her, and her out of touch Hollywood elite’s rendition of “Imagine?” The movie deserves praise for that alone. If I’m not mistaken Wiig showed up in that too. So stunning, so brave.
When you were talking about how Diana lost her powers, all I could think of was Superman II. That's how you should handle an overpowered character coming to terms with losing all of their strength because of a dumb decision they made. It seemed like they were trying to copy that here, but never pulled it off.
The mere fact she didn't have her sword and shield, because she's a pacifist now or whatever, that was enough to make some of the action scenes a lot less fun.
Man I keep comming to this video when I'm having a bad day. It's incredible hilarious, I went to see this movie with my sister and my dad, and when the movie finished, we were 100% silent until we get to the car, it was embarrassing lol

Pretty sure RADAR doesn't care if you are invisible.
nope, if you're an object (i.e. matter), it will find you.
Yeah, it would be "Sir we've lost visual with the target"
"I'm still tracking the bogie on radar, missles are tracking, permission to engage"
*Fires heat seeking SAM*
I had the same complaint. Goodness...
Radio waves are light (electromagnetic radiation). A cloaking device that prevents light from being reflected back to its source will indeed make the cloaked object undetectable to radar.
Don't worry: there are still 1000 reasons to hate this movie.
@@joshuathorpe6734 depends. Just because something can bend light of the visual spectrum does not mean if can effect radar. We already have material that is Infrared invisible for instance
“Success should be earned, not given,“ says the woman born with invincibility, super strength, immortality, regeneration, and apparently also flight, and turning things invisible and intangible to radar but tangible to human butts.
She doesn’t make things “intangible”.
@@Tangerine3712 Explain why the the radar didn't work
@@ddd8828 Visible light and radio (upon which "RAdio Detection And Ranging" aka "radar" depends) are just different frequencies of electromagnetic radiation.
Apparently the invisibility also applies to radar. You know, "Radar invisibility" like stealth is?
So it's possible to do both to an object the size of a Tornado/F-111 Aardvark hybrid with the same field effect (assuming anyone other than Harry Potter could do it.)
Just...not with the tech we have today.
Just like the F35. It's invisible folks! What? You don't need to make things invisible to make them undetectable by radar? Radar is not a visual detection system?
@@stevejordan7275 Hmm I think you are conflating two very different things. Sight involves receiving EMR from objects. So one possible way to be invisible is to bend light around yourself so the observer literally sees around you. Another way is to use cameras to project the image behind you on your own body surface. Radar works by bouncing radio waves off objects and receiving its echo. So how would she be accomplishing both at the same time? The way you say it is obvious but its not obvious to me. Plus you know stealth jets aren't invisible to the eye right?
Not to mention the implication behind the poor man who got body snatched by Steve. Probably lost his job and family and his life is utterly ruined. But you go gurl
Not to mention he was totally violated as Diana slept with the Steve body too!!! Idk what Patty Jenkins was thinking there, kinda rapey undertones😭😭
Aladdin had a pretty interesting take on the wishing for infinite power thing. Jafar wishing to be a genie for the powers and getting his wish but with the added consequence of being confined to a lamp of his own for all eternity. No Aladdin 2 would ever ruin that.
Dianna: “Check out this moving staircase!”
Steve: “Oh, you mean an escalator… a technology invented in the 1880’s and in use when I was alive? Oh goodness... a trash can!”
I know, right? How was he so in awe of a freaking trash can?? Presumably, he'd been walking around in that guy's body for, at least, a few days. He already been out walking the streets trying to find Diana. Are we seriously to believe during all of that he'd never come across a trash can? Man, if that's true than the horse less carriages must've scared the hell out of him. Ha!
I thought the very same thing! Also his amazement of the train coming into the station was ridiculous....
@@donxavier10 i mean to be fair, when he was around trashcans didn't look like that, hell plastic wasn't invented.
@@donxavier10 To be fair, he was not "in awe of a trash can." He was told he was in an art exhibit so he was trying to understand why this trash can was considered art by these future people. Similar to an episode of Columbo where Columbo asks for an explanation of the air vent in a modern art exhibit. He knew what it was, he just wondered if it had some significance in that spot he was not aware of.
@@matthiuskoenig3378 That is not correct. Bakelite, the first completely synthetic plastic, was invented in 1907, patented in 1909 and already used quite a lot in 1914. So even if he had never used, let's say a bakelite telephone, he would surely have heard about synthetic materials and even if _that_ would not have been the case, I highly doubt he would freak out like that about _those._ And how many things made of plastic must he have seen already _before_ that trash can? Why was he not freaking out about, let's say, plastic train seats?
Seriously, they've chosen the most ridiculous reasons for him to freak out possible. A completely electrified city could have been impressive. The amount of car traffic. Computers. Women dressing like what might have looked to him like prostitutes. TV, for heavens sake.
And anyway - how the hell is it possible that he is crossing half the city without seeing even _one_ magic, awe-inducing trash can all the way? And how and why is he still freaking out about a trash can, when is ability to be excited must have been depleted by now by all those other amazing things he must have seen?
The most unbelievable thing in the movie is the fact that she got every single person in the world to take back their wish
Right? I mean, that suggests that all the wishes were things people didn't really need. What if there were people out there wishing for food or medicine?
@@brianfrisbie8106 Or lost loved ones?
Was that the part where she sang “imagine there’s no possessions”? 🧐

How convenient.
I actually couldn't get through this film. Yes, that bad. When she just suddenly decided that she could fly unexpectedly, I said "okay, I'm done." The whole invisible jet thing and grabbing a bullet FROM BEHIND with her magic lasso almost made me quit, but the flying thing was the final straw.

Despite being literally 1984, even Big Brother isn't watching this.
One addition. Cheetah gets her powers and automatically kicks Diana's butt. Someone with centuries of combat experience. Didn't have to learn a thing. She was just awesome from the jump.
Yeah, but Kirsten's wish was to be like Diana (presumably the dildo stone included the powers that Kirsten was unaware of it in that deal, as can be seen when her strength massively increases), whilst Diana is simultaneously losing her powers as a consequence of her own wish.
The movie is still a piss poor execution of an interesting idea, but that part is consistent with its internal logic.
She Saif she wanted to be the apex predator, meaning the strongest off all, thus stronger then Wonder Woman.

What shocked me the most to A Clockwork Orange level was the movie showing sexual assault of a man is okay. The juxtaposition of Barbara saying no twice is supposed to be a nod to no means no and me too and times up but Wonder Woman having sex with a guy that her boyfriend is in mental possession of while the actual body owner is coma unconscious is disgusting and revolting. I guess the writers of WW84 thought rape of females is bad, but the rape of males is okay if the female assaulter is not ugly.
From DC's own website about Wonder Woman, "Wonder Woman has stood for nearly eighty years as a symbol of truth, justice, and equality. Diana has made it her duty to lead by example."
To top it off the director Patty Jenkins said, "It's a trope since the 80's, get over it." Patty doesn't understand that sometimes tropes are bad and if you do use a bad trope maybe lampshade the situation, but lampshading is reserved for writers that understand there is a problem to begin with.
It's not rape if she's hot everybody knows that
I honestly think that modern film makers believe that if they give the film a long run time it's going to be considered as an "epic."
I love how Steve looks on in wonder at these new things called fireworks. To be fair, they had only existed for a millennia or so before WW1.
Yeah understandable that he didn't know them if thats true
And trashcan and subways.
That’s poor research on the writers’ part. Funny; aside from that miss, the movie really followed a cogent storyline.
Also, shouldn't it traumatize him because he died on explosion on the first Wonder Woman movie? And how the fuck they can fly with a plane in museum which it's supposed to be museum figurine and how did it have fuels?

My favorite thing about this movie is how Patty Jenkins, the writer/director, is saying that it’s a masterpiece. The narcissism is unreal!
That's a liberal for you, living in their bubble-like echo chamber. I had thought Patty Jenkins was normal. I never heard anything stupid from her when the first one came out and she seemed concerned only with making a good movie. But now we have the real Patty Jenkins on display with writing credits this time, complete with her self-proclaimed Donald Trump villain. Ugh, i am done with this woman now.

Did anyone notice how Diana's childhood story got rewritten? In the first movie, it shows her training hard as an adult but still getting her ass kicked. In 1984, they made her perfect at 10 years old. She would have won the competition against a bunch of grown Amazons, the only thing that stopped her was her being snatched out of the competition for cheating. It made her skills feel unearned, which totally erased what we learned about her in the first movie. What a disgrace.
First time I watched this movie I was ABSOLUTELY WASTED and it didn't really make any sense to me... The 2nd time I watched it sober and it made EVEN LESS SENSE...
Wonder Woman: "I left the world for 100 years"

"I was lying the whole time hahaaa. The lasso of truth has to be recharged somehow right?"

@@TimoRutanen Sorry it actually needed a recharge???????
This is also the problem with jumping throughout time as a franchise progresses. They get a new idea or decide to implement an existing one that hasn't been depicted yet (Wonder Woman flying), but they implement in a "new" entry to the franchise set in the past. Multiverse has similar issues where nothing that happens really matters because they can always reset the clock or hop to an alternate reality, but it's much less egregious. Although I still think the Multiverse stuff has its problems but it is undeniable from a cash-grab standpoint.

It drives me absolutely insane that the climax of the movie involves relying on LITERALLY EVERY HUMAN ON EARTH RENOUNCING THEIR WISHES. I'd be willing to bet not even 5% of those who made wishes would be willing to renounce them; humans are inherently selfish, and would undoubtedly be loathe to give up their deepest wishes come true even to save the world, especially since they generally would be doing so for no apparent gain. I, standing in my living room with my wish granted, would likely notice no difference in the world if I gave up my wish, so why the hell would I? I tend to think of myself as a generally good person, and having my wish taken from me seems like a "Nothing to gain, everything to lose" scenario.

To be fair, there were several articles regarding how this movie had a weird rape concept on this point and the movie quickly fell into obscurity.
@@dangerdan2592 The film doesn't really explain it well, tbh, but what little the audience is given basically implies that the poor guy is suppressed so far down in his own body that he's basically comatose and has no shown reaction to being meat-puppeted by Trevor. I'm honestly still horrified that Diana is so blasé about using his body to get her love interest back that she doesn't even reconsider jumping his bones without any consent and just, you know, not being a horrible person.
Also, she doesn't apologise to the poor guy for having his body hijacked by Trevor, either, so the poor man is essentially left with a chunk of his memory missing once Trevor returns to the afterlife, too. Although, given that happened to his body while he was down and out, that might've been the closest thing to kindness he got here...

And a woman pining over a guy for 70 years isn’t romantic, it’s psychotic. Girl get help!
@Brian McConnell Oh shut up and Diana is finally over him at the end of WW84
Pining....I see what you did there
I agree it would've been interesting to see Diana deal with the increasing loss of her powers and the reprocussions, stress, and fear it should cause as she loses the abilities she always had so easily. And it would be fun to see the tension and then teamwork as she realizes she needs to rely on Steve more heavily to help her in fights and come up with clever strategy over strength to get around her new weakness.
Also we need to see the evidence of the life of the guy Steve took over creeping in on them as his work, friends and family call him and the guilt over stealing his life. In the end wouldn't it be both of them sacrificing the selfish choice with not just Diana but also Steve not willing to steal someones life? They could then at least acknowledge life is precious even if people are flawed. Making just about her broken heart and Steve wanting her to have powers back is disappointing. In Justice League Diana, is portrayed as people weren't worth saving anymore and she only fights if the threat is world devastation. Rather unheroic attitude for a hero movie

It will be used until the heat death of the universe, maybe even beyond. It's the similar excuse for when female chess players can't compete with male ones. "It's the patriarchy's fault! It makes every single one of the female players BELIEVE they can't so they don't! But they totally could!"
Yes. Yes, we will 🤮.
Plenty of male directors and comic book creators trot out the same line over and over again. Have so for decades. It's the go-to cliche insult when they get called out on screwing up and/or making their female character of choice an unlikable bitch instead of a relatable human being.
Yep, that's why Julia Roberts, Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Anniston and Jennifer Lawrence had such terrible careers and nobody's ever heard of them.
I really liked the first movie. This movie was awful. Max Lord was a mountain of wasted potential. His comic counterpart is a very powerful telepath. Not a broken conman. Kristen Wig was horribly miscast also.
Just found out that one of the hacks who wrote this is writing for the spiderverse sequel...god help us
Say sike right now

Bringing Steve back felt to me like just shoving Chris Pine in the movie just cause
Well they had two and a half hours to kill...
@@TheNefastor and a movies career too by the looks of it
They're like "Fuck F9 brought Han back, if they can do that we can bring Steve back as well"
@@adrianalprin5752 LMAO 🤣
@@adrianalprin5752 just remembered Gal Gadot was Han's girlfriend 😁
This movie was painful to watch. Effects, dialog and story were literally Spy Kids level.
At least Spy Kids was done with some love, because Rodriguez wants to entertain kids. This, on the other hand, is just awful girl power pandering
Hey hey, don't bring Spy Kids down to WW 84's level. That franchise has a special place in my heart.
Don't you dare compare spy kids to this.... Thing...
Wrong. The Spy Kids movies are superior.
It was more of a filler episode in a tv series
Maybe Patty Jenkins should have sticked to directing instead of story writing…
When you really think about these superheroe movies, "The Boys" starts to make a lot more sense...
I like how she destroyed the cameras AFTER she had already shown herself in costume doing super human things.
Lady brain
Yeah... like what was that about?
As if the footage gets recorded on the actual camera 🤣😂😅
The cameras can't tell their secrets if they are DEAD! Thats how they work, right?
I don't even think video cameras were even that ubiquitous in 1984. I think only in the later 80's did they become a thing. And even then you had the problem of sufficient storage. They were either just re-recorded over the same VHS tape or used time lapse recording.
seeing diana as a child be able to run and move just as fast as other amazonian women who have been training their whole lives makes it seem like diana is really just someone who got their whole life handed to them. she's already the fastest and strongest without being past the age of 10, talk about working for what you want
She isn’t an Amazon. She’s a baby god, sent to live with them. But ok.
@@jamesbizs Problem is though is now you have godly powers with 0 work needed.
Because that’s what women think they are: goddesses who should be loved and adored unconditionally without having to grind.
There is a reason why matriarchy never worked anywhere.
@@Memoiana yeah its hilarious how all modern feminist movies nowadays who aim to educate the general public fail at that. We live in a society in which most modern self called feminists are the ones who deep down consider women inferior to men by giving them extra leverage.
There's a line she says about having to let Steve go "Why for once can't I have this one thing?" I don't know who wrote that line or who agreed on it but that line perfectly represents the blatant lack of self awareness of this movie. The first WW I thought was decent, but then I learned Gal Gadot isn't such a great actress and wow does it show in this sequel. Those "emotional" scenes made me cringe. Best thing about this movie was Pedro Pascal imo. But the way his character was written... You can make any wish come true and you want more oil? ...what? And that totally forced in Lynda Carter bit was just the final nail in the coffin.
"Calling" a disappointing sequel isn't exactly difficult. The 2nd film in a franchise rarely lives up to its predecessor.
Amazing work Drinker. The fact that more and more people subscribe to your channel gives me hope.
The whole Amazon Olympics is point less. In the first movie, Diana’s mother WOULDNT allow her to train until she’s a teenager. Yet in WW84, the intro is literally just that training before she’s a teenager.
Go Bears! Beat Green Bay!
I knew it! Thank you! I kinda remember this but not really remember the exact word so I don't really think about it but now!!! Yes, this WW84 is a hotpile plot holes garbage movie
It’s even pointless within the scene itself. Though Diana falls off her horse, the horse keeps going as though she was still on it. Her “shortcut” didn’t give her any advantage, and even made her miss one of the arrow targets.
Cheated? More like she was a 10 year old who didn’t make the right decision and would’ve lost either way.
because they did not even read or watch the last movie thye dont even know how to connect the movie
Thats what i am looking for
Also: max is a genie, Diana raped a man that was in the sunken place that was replaced with Steve, and why was Max’s son Filipino? How would turning the jet invisible matter to radar? How could Steve fly a fighter jet but didn’t know what a trash can was?? My head hurts
Ahahah Max's son filipino made me lol.. maybe his wife is asian but yeah, unnecessary mixed race there ahahahah
@V. V just do you'd know, DC and Marvel don't have copyright on superhero powers
@V. V Haha the sexism was just sarcasm and irony haha u look so stupid
How did Steve get directions to fly to Egypt? Also, who was the man who Steve inhabited? Surely he must have known Diana was treating him like someone else 🤔
@V. V But to be fair, while that other guy totally was a moron for falling for the obvious bait, your first comment was certainly a bit cringe...
I instantly realize that would radar still hit an invisible jet, the objects mass is there to bounce the signal off of.
Salute Drew. That construction work outside reminds me of The Wire, Season 3: synopsis “as Royce employs slightly murky tactics to put off his rival, sending the DPW to dig up the road outside.” Life imitating art. SUSPECT. Keep up the great work!! 🙏👏👏
This movie feels like it's made to appeal to people who's only knowledge of 80's nostalgia comes from Stranger Things and The Goldbergs.
I feel the opposite actually. I thought the comfort-food visual/pop cultural nostalgia was surprisingly weak compared to those shows. Instead, they tried to lean into an 80's-relevant theme--taking down "Greed Is Good"--and completely shat the bed.
they failed to even meet that comical standard. this felt like a modern era movie where some people decide to dress and act like its still the 80s. oh yeah, just like modern era.
Now this statement is very well put!
Thats exactly what I thought when I saw the name of the movie.
it's not like they are a lot of popular and funny things from the 80's they could've used. I'm gonna go watch Family Guy.
I do like the addition of the Jack Nicholson laughing scene to the Drinker's cutaway repertoire.
I definitely smell shite.
+1 to that. I was going to comment something similar but without the word "repertoire" because I'm an uncultured swine and tend to forget it exists.
As well as that terrifying Superman mouth, yikes...
I liked that the first WW had a female hero with female hero characteristics rather than transferring male ones. So I came to this film really looking forward to it: I love the 80s - give me GTA Vice City any day of the week.
What a pile of steaming sh.............
For me, they simply took away her warrior. When Zack snyder gave us gal gadot, she was this acient bad ass greek armored grecco warrior goddess, when she clanked those bracelets together and created this godly concussion blast that propels anything. She literally felt like a bad ass greek warrior goddess of peace. Her sword, he shield. Her colors. She was simply perfect. Her fight with stepenwolf I'm zack snyders justice league was all that we needed. I loved her. But they wonder woman 1984 came and took all that away, they took away her warrior and turned her into this overly saturated, cheap, campy Linda Carter spin off. It was awful for me. That lasso was used top much, and the zack snyder wonder woman would have Never let a cat kick her ass. I mean this is the girl who charged headfirst into doomsday and kept him at bay along side superman. Idk why they turned her into a cheap 80s mess but it was a bad idea. When I first heard they were doing it based In the 80s I thought they would be about the Iraq wars or something, or revel circe corrupting man to do large scale evil. I thought they keep her the way she came in, dropping in arms crossed block a beam from a giant evil creature..... man they took away her warrior
I honestly thought the first "action" scene was an actual joke.. i thought she was gonna drink a pepsi after she finished
That would've been kinda funny, and totally 80s
Remember when Gal Gadot ended Covid with her, and her out of touch Hollywood elite’s rendition of “Imagine?” The movie deserves praise for that alone. If I’m not mistaken Wiig showed up in that too. So stunning, so brave.
Such stun, much brave.
@leah rose Such Shades. Many regrets
I remember hearing Mark "Drizzling Shits" Ruffalo's attempts at singing. I'd rather watch _Wonder Woman: 1984_ 100 times than hear him sing even once.
She did turn up in that! What a rendition of the classic though!! More keys than a jailer's ring, as the old saying goes!
When you were talking about how Diana lost her powers, all I could think of was Superman II. That's how you should handle an overpowered character coming to terms with losing all of their strength because of a dumb decision they made. It seemed like they were trying to copy that here, but never pulled it off.
Binge watched 12 of your videos. All incredibly informative and enjoyable!
The mere fact she didn't have her sword and shield, because she's a pacifist now or whatever, that was enough to make some of the action scenes a lot less fun.
Hey wait a minute she had them in Justice League, what the fuck?
She learns how to make things invisible BUT FORGETS THEM IN JUSTICE LEAGUE(Snyder's and Whedon's version).
@@flarestriker2005 that’s patty jenkins
That's for sure. I mean would it have been too much for Diana to be a peacekeeper by day and warrior princess by night.
She should have always been a pacifist but yet he's still smashing ppl like trash
They should've had Steve Trevor quantum leap into Danny DeVito and try to rekindle his relationship with Wonder Woman.
All he would need is a monster condom to use for his magnum dong.
Danny being in this movie would’ve made it 1000 times better
"Hey Diana, how about we rekindle our relationship by starting an oooourrgy."
-Steve T. Reynolds.
Danny devito should have played every male roll in the movie.
Hahahahaha! Nice
Man I keep comming to this video when I'm having a bad day. It's incredible hilarious, I went to see this movie with my sister and my dad, and when the movie finished, we were 100% silent until we get to the car, it was embarrassing lol
