@Boy Pussoir And in this scene, you'll notice that the truck she throws the creep into is green. Now, you might think that it's just a green truck, but actually, it symbolizes Cheetahs inability to... *15 minutes of rambling* ...and that's why it's the best film I've ever seen. Truly powerful. Stanley Kubrick would be proud. - Vague samey film review channel
Ohhhhhh...they were cheating by wishing and the antagonist turned into a cheetah. Wow 😳 🤯 I thought this movie was pure garbage but now I realize it’s DEEP. ...very deep.
Twisted Sister’s Stay Hungry album came out in ‘84 too, I choose to believe there’s an alternate universe where the movie has several uncomfortably silent scenes of Wonder Woman eating tuna while driving a car through the desert.
Had they like... actually worked on the theme of truth... like with some writers who like... understood themes and stuff... WW lassoing a lightning with her lasso of truth could have worked as a power that is not a mere lie detector but a tool which grabs onto truth... taps into... latches on if you will... to the fabric of reality itself. Regardless of illusions and delusions. Then in the end, she could have been connecting to everyone through the power of truth and have them realize the truth that their selfish little materialistic wishes (which all came at a cost) were not worth the destruction of the world, and the mass of that global realization collapsing the "wish field", "wish force", "wish-fish" or whatever it is that Maxipad Trump was broadcasting.
I've only watched the tuna movie, but what Neil Breen made there was so strange that it was almost arthouse instead of junk. So I think it is a disservice to compare it to a comic movie.

IMagine the child cancer patients, the burn wards, the blind, the deaf. Everyone who wished to help themselves that cancelled their wish because a hot chick told them to "love what they had".
I understand what they were going for, and it was a noble attempt, but just like with time travel, when you introduces wishes in a movie, everything can go to shit in the hands of no so good writters.
"I'm sorry, sweethearth. I know having our daughter back after she died in that school shooting was amazing, but this lady is saying that the truth is enough, so we're gonna have to send her back."
Glad I occasionally peruse the comments first. I had this exact thought. Thumbs to you over me saying the same. Before they stopped, I was kinda hoping for a repeat of the Star Wars Holiday Special review.
I miss his commentary, interspersed with slice-of-life verite insights e.g. "..ejaculating blood into a storm drain" which made me gut laugh out loud - a rarity.
They could've easily edited WW's entrance being her destroying the cameras instead of making that her exit. OR, even better. Have her big exciting entrance be the audience seeing the surveillance cameras getting destroyed by something, we don't know yet and assume it's the crooks doing it to cover their tracks (cause they thought that'd work). Then we see WW's entrance being her catch her crown... thing (whatever it's called that she wears on her head) as the camera sticks to WW looking ready to fight those crooks as the music swells. Thoughts?
I’m fucking sick to death of seeing “awkward nerd drops lots of papers in public” trope. Cos you know, the papers signify nerdyness and the dropping signifies awkwardness. I wonder if they’ll discover their confidence at some point...

@@Jose-se9pu Seriously, glasses are already hot AF. I honestly think Wiig looked more attractive _with_ the glasses than without (down to personal preference, I know, but my point remains). Hollywood once again proving how out of touch it is
It's the universal constant of feminist movies undermining themselves whenever they get into specifics: Movie: Behold! Our strong, stunning and brave female character! Audience: Okay. So what kinda stuff does she do? Movie: Uhh. Hmm. I dunno. She's a woman...so...hmm. I guess...she gets pursued by two hot guys at the same time, creating a love triangle where she has to decide which one she likes most? That's a strong woman thing, right? Right?! Audience: *facepalm*
It was truly embarrassing I couldn't believe what I was watching and this is the best feminist empowerment has to offer? Not just in this movie but in any series or movie they get their hands on, maybe apart from the silence of the lambs
@@casbyness I'm reminded of Evangeline Lily who only agreed to play Tauriel in The Hobbit movies if she didn't have a love triangle, because she didn't want the movie to add in a new female character in the Tolkein universe just for that. Execs agreed initially, then a few rewrites and corporate meddling later she was in one.
8:47 This is why I love Redlettermedia. I don't think anyone can portray the frustrations of trying to watch a movie at home, especially with friends who are half interested, better than they did here. When Plinkett answers the call about the car warranty I couldn't stop laughing.
It was like a monkeys paw, too. Poor Jay and Mike wished for the downfall of the theaters for a kick add home theater, and then got what they wished for, car warranty calls and all.
Holy shit, you got em there which means that poor little bat obsessed kid had to renounce his wish lol God this movie is horrible. You would think instead of BVS it would have been BVW.
Yeah, the whole time I was thinking "truth? This movie isn't about truth. It's about *desire*. WW's desire for Steve, Max's desire to be someone. It's about what lengths you're willing to go to for desire... what do they keep talking about truth for, this isn't a PBS show where we need a moral spelled out to us."
@@carlotta4th I think it was more that wish fulfillment is lying to yourself and that she needed to face the reality that she couldn’t have Steve back.

@@Phoenix0F8 Yup, I'm just busting her balls for doing that. The funny thing is that the next celeb after she kicks it all off was her co-star Kristen Wiig.
That would have been too clever for this movie that clearly had no thought put into its own time period. They went with “general 80s vibe” instead of trying to be specific to 1984. It would have made too much of an emotional connection with the people in the film, since celebrating John Lennon in 1984 would be like celebrating Prince in 2020. I’m not being serious, but I just wanted to take an extra opportunity to put more effort into the screenplay than Patty Jenkins did.
How Rich Evans talking back and forth between himself listing every possible subscription service can be more entertaining than the movie itself is.. well, it certainly says a lot about society.

Ehh. They'll pay him a bunch of money and he'll be back as a 'memory' in two episodes time. He'll forgive Jay for killing him and absolutely won't be a force ghost in any way.
Once the first poster came out with the same color pallette as Thor all I saw on social media was people calling it Wonder Women: Ragnorak which was pretty accurate.
Is it really that hard to write 'Ragnarok'? I swear most people write Ragnorok or something like that. I'll give you credit, though, Ragnorak doesn't even sound like the actual word.
I knew it was over the moment Diana tell Wiig that she's so funny and personable at dinner based on a joke or conversation that takes place off-screen, before the scene starts.
My all time favorite is the cold cut in with 2 characters just laughing and saying something reminiscent to only them and immediately dropping the subject to discuss the plot.
Imagine writing a woman who is supposed to be strong and independent who is so haunted by a man she knew for a week 60 years ago that it nearly destroys the world
It is genuinely a hassle to find out what service a movie/tv show is streaming, especially considering cost factors and also especially if you live outside the United States
@@TheOriginal_Unaleska People definitely said that, though. The problem is not paying for a service. The problem is having to pay for multiple services. "The pirate library" is way better than paying for 1000x individual services. Mind you, some shows cant even be found legally. E.g. Like I cant even get all Love it or List it Too episodes from anywhere. Why is that? Because these ahole people who own these shows hoard them.
Night Court first aired in January of 1984. Who would have guessed that 36 years later, it would be a pivotal plot point in the intro skit for RedLetterMedia's review of Wonder Woman 1984 (also in January)? It's all so fitting.
The payoff to that 18 minute opening should have been that in the fight with cheetah she kills her instantly and cheetahs last words are "how" then wonder woman says "Because cheetahs never win"
51:07 , also how fucked up is it, that this literal superior being, just tells everyone that the status quo is good, and that is the truth and that it should just stay that way? Really easy for her to say, shes immortal, pretty and strong. but she couldn't have her dead boy toy. very much a "If I can do without my gold plated toilet, then you can do without food or water"
It comes across the same as when rich/powerful christian people tell those suffering from disease/accidents "God has a plan for you". Easy for you to say.
@SA - 12ZZ 751106 John Fraser SS Which is hilarious, because again, that can easily translate into “do not question the status quo because that will only create chaos!” lol
That hit home for me as that's literally how much noise there is during the day in my house, he'll even worse... It's the reason I wait pass 11PM to watch shit
I get what Jay is saying about the film not being heavily grounded in the 80's. Yeah, there's a lot of superficial acknowledgement of the 80's, but aside from it taking place during the cold war, none of it really informs the story or affects the plot's development.
@@AdamDane we still have that idea in modern day so really the only reason to set it in 1984 would be the 80s aesthetic which they didnt take advantage of
@@AdamDane I was gonna say the 1950's - but really it's been the whole post-WWII era. Beatniks/hippies were a backlash to it, which was obviously well before the 80's.

@@skeletorpfunk6342 thats exactly the point. This story has nothing to do with the fact that it was set in the 80's so it wont matter anyway. They should've go with entirely another plot that has nothing to do with nostalgia because even in that aspect they didnt even deliver
@@ralphengland8559 that's writing the movie for the writers. It's also an awful crutch. What you should have said is "it had to take place chronologically before the other Dceu heroes started their sagas because the writers don't want to have to think about the other characters of the universe". It also failed miserably because there are visual references to cultural artifacts that didn't exist at the time setting of the movie. It's both lazy and done poorly.
*Everyone* - Why didn't you have the magic stone bring back Steve with his own body? *Patty Jenkins* - It's vital we add an unnecessary rapey undercurrent to this story.
always assume that the monkey paws adding another twist...she wasn't specific..and the wish are always SOMEWHAT orgnaicly so you wouldn't have steven digging out of his grave. Which what would happen if you wished him into his own body. See you got to be specific. That wasn't even twisting the wish
As usual, I totally agree with Jay. I said the same points during the movie. Especially on the point about it barely referencing the 80s. It flooded 80s references at the start for sure, but then it was just the occasional "oh yeah it's the 80s, throw in an old car or piece of clothing".
I recently rewatched their Winter Soldier HITB and at the time they still referred to Steve as Aaron Rogers all the time lol so it’s nice to see a progression on that little arc of theirs. Now Steve Rogers is in their mind while mistaking another guy’s name for his
It was a bold choice of Patty Jenkins to defeat the villain by letting Wonder Woman look straight at the camera and sing Imagine by John Lemon.

Ohhhhhh...they were cheating by wishing and the antagonist turned into a cheetah. Wow 😳 🤯 I thought this movie was pure garbage but now I realize it’s DEEP. ...very deep.
The “Ride the Lightning” album from Metallica came out in 1984. Get it? She was riding the lightning. In 1984.
Twisted Sister’s Stay Hungry album came out in ‘84 too, I choose to believe there’s an alternate universe where the movie has several uncomfortably silent scenes of Wonder Woman eating tuna while driving a car through the desert.
Had they like... actually worked on the theme of truth... like with some writers who like... understood themes and stuff...
WW lassoing a lightning with her lasso of truth could have worked as a power that is not a mere lie detector but a tool which grabs onto truth... taps into... latches on if you will... to the fabric of reality itself.
Regardless of illusions and delusions.
Then in the end, she could have been connecting to everyone through the power of truth and have them realize the truth that their selfish little materialistic wishes (which all came at a cost) were not worth the destruction of the world, and the mass of that global realization collapsing the "wish field", "wish force", "wish-fish" or whatever it is that Maxipad Trump was broadcasting.
One of my neighbours also came out in 1984 boy what a year.
It's from the comics that predate the said album. Still a great callback. Superhero flicks need more metal in them.

It's the universal constant of feminist movies undermining themselves whenever they get into specifics:
Movie: Behold! Our strong, stunning and brave female character!
Audience: Okay. So what kinda stuff does she do?
Movie: Uhh. Hmm. I dunno. She's a woman...so...hmm. I guess...she gets pursued by two hot guys at the same time, creating a love triangle where she has to decide which one she likes most? That's a strong woman thing, right? Right?!
Audience: *facepalm*
It was truly embarrassing I couldn't believe what I was watching and this is the best feminist empowerment has to offer? Not just in this movie but in any series or movie they get their hands on, maybe apart from the silence of the lambs
@@casbyness I'm reminded of Evangeline Lily who only agreed to play Tauriel in The Hobbit movies if she didn't have a love triangle, because she didn't want the movie to add in a new female character in the Tolkein universe just for that.

That would have been too clever for this movie that clearly had no thought put into its own time period. They went with “general 80s vibe” instead of trying to be specific to 1984. It would have made too much of an emotional connection with the people in the film, since celebrating John Lennon in 1984 would be like celebrating Prince in 2020.
I’m not being serious, but I just wanted to take an extra opportunity to put more effort into the screenplay than Patty Jenkins did.
Wishing to become an apex predator and turning into a cheetah is like wishing for the power of flight and turning into a pigeon.
I half hoped she would turn into Godzilla and the movie would actually be fun
I didn't like the movie either, but to be fair, cheetahs are by definition an apex predator. Just sayin'...
Well, they are apex predators, but it would have been funny if she had turned into a saltwater crocodile.
Cheetahs aren't even apex predators in every area. They get killed by lions and leopards, and get bullied by hyenas.

I don’t think people understand how good this is, the first 5 minutes are literally just two characters both played by Rich Evans talking to each other
Mike is wrong, Jay is correct - they wasted the 80's setting.
Would it add anything to the story though? I don’t see the point other than people going to it because 80’s nostalgia (as if anyone gives a shit about that garbage anymore)
Its wasted sure but it is everywhere, the cars, the clothes the dialog the idioms the style of interiors
@@skeletorpfunk6342 It had to take place before any of the other DC heroes were running around otherwise it would have needed to include them.
@@skeletorpfunk6342 thats exactly the point. This story has nothing to do with the fact that it was set in the 80's so it wont matter anyway. They should've go with entirely another plot that has nothing to do with nostalgia because even in that aspect they didnt even deliver
@@ralphengland8559 that's writing the movie for the writers. It's also an awful crutch. What you should have said is "it had to take place chronologically before the other Dceu heroes started their sagas because the writers don't want to have to think about the other characters of the universe". It also failed miserably because there are visual references to cultural artifacts that didn't exist at the time setting of the movie. It's both lazy and done poorly.
FINALLY!!!! The wait is over
VERY COOL!!
I think you meant to say... The wait is ogre!
Right , same thought
I really enjoyed watching Rich get continuously shot. What does this say about me?
FINALLY!!
Rich's "OWWW Fuck!" at 7:03 should replace the Wilhelm scream in every movie, both going forward and retroactively.
Yes, yes and yes.
Perfect echo and everything.
That final speech would be amazing in Neil Breen’s voice.
Seems like these guys are on to my plans for a “Night Court Plus” streaming service
Their ideas gave birth to the Night Court cinematic universe!
Was there ever a Spin off, Nightcourt days?
@@HappyRussia1138 Is that the one featuring Judge Harry T. Stone vs Vampire Assassin?
@ConManliness I’d pay $17K a month for that service
I hope they do a Bull based spinoff where he travels between two realities where the only difference is that Roz is black in one of them.
Cheetas aren't actually apex predators, they get eaten by other big cats frequently.
Yeah they get bullied by lions, leopards and even hyenas
She lost her common sense for that wish
Humans are apex predators. We kill just about everything. Even the entire planet.

*Everyone* - Why didn't you have the magic stone bring back Steve with his own body?
*Patty Jenkins* - It's vital we add an unnecessary rapey undercurrent to this story.
After all, this movie is about female empowerment, right?
always assume that the monkey paws adding another twist...she wasn't specific..and the wish are always SOMEWHAT orgnaicly so you wouldn't have steven digging out of his grave. Which what would happen if you wished him into his own body. See you got to be specific. That wasn't even twisting the wish
Have you ever read a goofy old DC comic book before?
She must have just watched Heaven Can Wait and thought that's the only way you can do it.
@@youneedyourmedication apparently that’s exactly what happened 😂
As usual, I totally agree with Jay. I said the same points during the movie. Especially on the point about it barely referencing the 80s. It flooded 80s references at the start for sure, but then it was just the occasional "oh yeah it's the 80s, throw in an old car or piece of clothing".
I love how Jay CONSTANTLY refers to Chris Pine's character as "Steve Rogers" lmfao
Hello there.
Steve Rogers would be a better love interest than Chris Pine’s character.
I recently rewatched their Winter Soldier HITB and at the time they still referred to Steve as Aaron Rogers all the time lol so it’s nice to see a progression on that little arc of theirs. Now Steve Rogers is in their mind while mistaking another guy’s name for his
The name Steve Trevor brings to mind some in-joke Kevin Smith put in mallrats when someone confusingly yells "tell him Steve Dave!"
