Wonder Woman 1984 teaser arrives (sorta).

Yeah, the mom and the oldest daughter were jerks for no reason. The female "Dr. Smith" was terrible yet she seemed realistic because she reminded me of a few people I know in real-life who constantly sabotage other people but behave as if they are the victims.

The female Dr. Smith was the most plausible thing about the show. She made a lot more sense than the original Dr. Smith, who if you remember, started out evil but then became a flaming queen who they let hang around Will.

Yup felt the same way they did everything to neuter the men. They gender bended everywhere possible

What I wasn’t expecting was the moment the wife apologized for constantly talking over her husband who was an expert on all things “survival”. I think that was the most unbelievable thing about the show. IRL, she never would have apologized :p

but, seriously, they really did their best to dumb the men down and make the women seem the most intelligent and capable, while simultaneously watching them fuck things up left and right. It felt as though the show is trolling itself. I loved Parker posey in it, so I am coming back for her. And the robot was probably the best thing in the show.

to clarify on the “trolling itself”, at the beginning it seems very “feminist” and very “girl power”, but if you watch it again, the women are capable at their respective skill sets and so are the men. The difference, is the women end up sabotaging themselves by trying to take over the husband’s position as survival expert. That, in turn, fucks things up over and over again. And the people who end up saving things and pulling things together are the father, the son, and his robot. So, it just felt like it was trolling itself. Which isn’t a bad thing. I like it when they flip the script midpoint and make it fun and entertaining.

That oldest daughter was directly responsible for the death of one of the crew and no one punished her. They did the whole you can't blame yourself nonsense and all I kept thinking was no we should absolutely blame her. Smh

Don't forget the daughter killing all their fuel to save someone who was already dying and honestly why are grown experienced people taking orders from a teenager. I don't care how smart she's suppose to be she has no experience.

To be completely honest the first Wonder Woman movie underwhelmed me but this trailer looks kind of interesting, although I thought the main villain was supposed to be Cheetah and not another Lex Luthor knock-off.

Yes, WW84 has two villians: Kristen Wiig's Cheetah and
Pedro Pascal's Maxwell Lord. The latter has never been a captivating character. I would have favored long-standing WW nemesis, Giganta. The next movie, perhaps?

And this too will flop and will be blamed on men

It'll be just like suicide squad insanely underwhelming because you have people living in ivory towers writing this stuff
 
Just judging by the marketing I predict Wonder Woman 84 is going to be another successful movie but Birds Of Prey is going to flop. BOP looks awful and at the risk of sounding sexist I'm not confident that a movie with such hohum looking women as the leads will be successful.

Nailed it. People aren't paying $12-$15 to see these blase chicks they keep trying to foist on us

Actual hot women trigger the ugly broads and BBWs hence we get mediocre-looking actresses actors now
