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
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?
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!
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.
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.
“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?
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?
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. 😂😂
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
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.
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.
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)
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.
@@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.
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.
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
@@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.
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...
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
@034bloodas Both lions and hyenas throw cheetahs around like fucking cat toys. She shoulda just stayed human and have it be some sort of 'hoomans are the reeeeeeeeeal apex predators all along'-kinda schlock cuz fuck it why not
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.
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.
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.
@@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.

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.
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.
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..
@@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.
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...
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.
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
@@mattthompson3714 The premise is still intact. The game, aside from bugs and a lack of customization and AI, can be described as an "unpolished gem", through and through.
They want this movie to have Marvel “feel” but it comes off cringy. They should stick with the detective theme, maybe they’ll be more successful that way.
Someone said it should tie with the Cold War theme that plagued the 80's and I agree. Imagine if they put Reagan, Tatcher and Gorbachov in this shit instead of the bs romance. They didn't leatn anything from Ultron, where the romance was the last liked plot (I actually like it after the whole saga was completed).
The first movie may have a few problems, but it was fun and managed to do what Captain Marvel tried so hard and failed. I still can't believe how bad this movie is.
@Greg Elchert he didn't tho, he actually reduced the Nazi partie's popularity when he ran for chancellor and became increasely opposed to Hitler. by the time hitler came to power he not only had retired but he was speaking out against hitler publically. not defending the gie, he was considered too radical by the Nazis. but he wasn't apart of the holocaust and if anything delayed it by his unpopularity. (ofcaurse if he did have anypower when the holocaust happened he would have liked it)
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.
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 add to that. Zack Synder wrote the first movie. And now this movie has new writers and Patty Jenkins. Yes. Her as writer and Director = Fail. Should had keep Zack as writer.
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.
@@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.
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 🤔
Actually, Diana NEVER spoke her wish out loud. She said "I know what I'd wish for" and that was it, the dildo stone just like, read her mind? And yet when Max becomes the didlo stone he requires every wish to be spoken to him. That plothole needs some traffic cones around it or maybe the story loses a tire or two, naah it'll be fine!
Because the Wish Stone pre-human host kind of sucked. Compare the three wishes it granted (coffee, superpowers, and back-to-life) with what comes later, with massive walls and nukes and whatnot. Clearly there's a massive power difference between what the stone could accomplish and what Max could accomplish.
@@roguebarbarian9133 Pre-human host it destroyed like five civilisations with no sign at all that age deteriorated the power in any way. It was made by a mischief god. The wishes were weak in the start of the movie because they were made in passing as a joke since they had no idea (“I wish I was like Diana” and “I know what I would wish for”), and even then it’s a hell of a strong wish for the superpowers from a demigod to be ripped out and to bring a guy back to life. Max Lord knows what it is and makes each wish with a lot more straightforward purpose and conviction, so they ramp up faster. I don’t think the human host thing has anything to do with it other than giving a more convenient way to receive and coerce more wishes. Max even uses it to take itself out of him.
Probably one of those Eastern Hippie Astrology correlations so the "Meat Suit" isn't a zombie. BUT. I always wondered. Was that poor hapless Gay Man spending his time in the "Quantum Leap"Nexus? That poor fellow putting his "Meat-Suit" back on must have felt like the last pair of socks in the dirty laundry bag. "Diana Violated my Sodomite Ass!' I'm going to Sue Someone!😝
I like how Kristin Wiig "loses her humanity" as a side effect of the stone... And not just the natural process of what happens when the ignored girl becomes a smokeshow and starts getting all the attention.
@@blackenedwritings Haha, right? I recall watching the Yesterday movie about the Beatles and the nerdy-ish woman kept looking familiar, until halfway into the movie, it dawned on me that she was Cinderella. No glasses at all.
@@blackenedwritings meanwhile, young attractive women can't be renowned doctors. not criticizing or anything, I'm just curious about these tropes and how default appearances are taken as granted. I'm actually starting to rethink about my prejudices - or at least I'm trying to see them from a distance. (About time.)
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.

@Abhijit Racer it still feels weird, plus that wasn't the only thing wrong with this frickin 'movie', in fact this is nothing compared to the other major flaws
She convinced the entire world to give back their wishes??? Jesus christ, did she sing another "viral video" to the world? Bc that was real believable irl.

not really, she convinced the first person to make the wish that made him the wish granter recent his wish..which means all the other wishes became nul and void.
@@NickPCage then what was the point of everyone saying they renounced their wish after he already said that? It's obvious the screenwriters didn't intend for it all to end because max renounced his wish

While I agree that this movie is absolute garbage, using Nolan is not a particularly good example to use. Nolan is infamously known for fridging women in his movies and has been called out on it multiple times; most of the women he fridges serve no plot relevance except being killed off in order to motivate the main protagonist/love interest. At least Steve willingly sacrifices himself to restore Diana's strength.
I was shocked by how this was. It’s embarrassing how they act like the world didn’t look into what nearly cause Armageddon and then just magically disappeared
Everyone points out the ridiculousness of Steve being able to fly modern fighter jet when he only flew WWI era bi planes. I wondered how he knew how to drive a modern automobile, when in 1918 the few models available had a top speed of around 30 mph. They also had totally different controls and handling characteristics. he'd be freaking out when he hit 40-50 mph.
Well automobiles unlike planes have gotten easier to operate over time and the layout really hasn't changed much. Unlike jets vs biplanes I wonder were he learned to use the flaps on take off his planes didn't have or need it but that jet does.
@@ChiefManny1 which is funny cause they even discussed how the old planes couldn’t go that far. Yet ignore that new planes also can’t go that far when they are the same small size
yea unfortunately Patty Jenkins admitted that after the success of the first Wonder Woman, the studio and producers wanted more control & influence in the sequel. She also was not happy about the outcome
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
Yeah...I couldn't remember them saying the jet had some newfangled secret design with miniaturised nuclear propulsion a'la Hunt For Red October submarines (similar era) lol. Not to mention it was supposedly in a museum...cringe

@@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.

“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”.
@@spacetofu19 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?
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?
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.
So sorry for your loss.
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. 😂😂
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

But it s not Cat Movie
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
First, I agree and have made that same argument. Second, what straight man would have said no?
@@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.
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...

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.

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.
I do like the addition of the Jack Nicholson laughing scene to the Drinker's cutaway repertoire.

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.
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.

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.
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.

They want this movie to have Marvel “feel” but it comes off cringy. They should stick with the detective theme, maybe they’ll be more successful that way.
Someone said it should tie with the Cold War theme that plagued the 80's and I agree. Imagine if they put Reagan, Tatcher and Gorbachov in this shit instead of the bs romance. They didn't leatn anything from Ultron, where the romance was the last liked plot (I actually like it after the whole saga was completed).
@@Willowy13 I wish the MCU treated Ultron as an actual film rather than a stepping stone to introduce more characters and plotlines
The first movie may have a few problems, but it was fun and managed to do what Captain Marvel tried so hard and failed. I still can't believe how bad this movie is.
I'd love to just see DC pull a 180 and just make gritty neo-noir detective thrillers
@Greg Elchert he didn't tho, he actually reduced the Nazi partie's popularity when he ran for chancellor and became increasely opposed to Hitler. by the time hitler came to power he not only had retired but he was speaking out against hitler publically.
not defending the gie, he was considered too radical by the Nazis. but he wasn't apart of the holocaust and if anything delayed it by his unpopularity. (ofcaurse if he did have anypower when the holocaust happened he would have liked it)
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.
There was literally no reason for this movie to take place in 1984.
Rio from Duran Duran and Max looking like Simon Le Bon
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 think there actually was a WW1984 story arc where it ww1984 ment World War 1984. But you'd never know from this God awful attempt at story telling
because if this movie happen in current time it will cause more confusion where all justice league member when there is JL level threat
This whole movie felt like an excuse to bring back Chris Pine.
Meanwhile, the entire first movie seemed like a good justification to leave Chris Pine dead.
Well, even a feminist movie needs a white male lead for box office success.
Any excuse to bring back Chris Pine is acceptable.

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.
Exactly instead they went for this whole possessed rapey fantasy
Because they needed Diana to r##e a man.
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.

This movie was painful to watch. Effects, dialog and story were literally Spy Kids level.

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

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...
Actually, Diana NEVER spoke her wish out loud. She said "I know what I'd wish for" and that was it, the dildo stone just like, read her mind? And yet when Max becomes the didlo stone he requires every wish to be spoken to him. That plothole needs some traffic cones around it or maybe the story loses a tire or two, naah it'll be fine!

*Steve joined the game*

@@mrgreenboy644 underrated comment. Liked and screenshoted
Because the Wish Stone pre-human host kind of sucked. Compare the three wishes it granted (coffee, superpowers, and back-to-life) with what comes later, with massive walls and nukes and whatnot. Clearly there's a massive power difference between what the stone could accomplish and what Max could accomplish.
@@roguebarbarian9133 Pre-human host it destroyed like five civilisations with no sign at all that age deteriorated the power in any way. It was made by a mischief god. The wishes were weak in the start of the movie because they were made in passing as a joke since they had no idea (“I wish I was like Diana” and “I know what I would wish for”), and even then it’s a hell of a strong wish for the superpowers from a demigod to be ripped out and to bring a guy back to life. Max Lord knows what it is and makes each wish with a lot more straightforward purpose and conviction, so they ramp up faster. I don’t think the human host thing has anything to do with it other than giving a more convenient way to receive and coerce more wishes. Max even uses it to take itself out of him.
Probably one of those Eastern Hippie Astrology correlations so the "Meat Suit" isn't a zombie. BUT. I always wondered. Was that poor hapless Gay Man spending his time in the "Quantum Leap"Nexus?
That poor fellow putting his "Meat-Suit" back on must have felt like the last pair of socks in the dirty laundry bag.

I like how Kristin Wiig "loses her humanity" as a side effect of the stone... And not just the natural process of what happens when the ignored girl becomes a smokeshow and starts getting all the attention.

@@barret-xiii with gal gadot starring in it? hell yeah it would have been. probably would have made a lot more money too
Indeed.
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.

While I agree that this movie is absolute garbage, using Nolan is not a particularly good example to use. Nolan is infamously known for fridging women in his movies and has been called out on it multiple times; most of the women he fridges serve no plot relevance except being killed off in order to motivate the main protagonist/love interest. At least Steve willingly sacrifices himself to restore Diana's strength.

Everyone points out the ridiculousness of Steve being able to fly modern fighter jet when he only flew WWI era bi planes. I wondered how he knew how to drive a modern automobile, when in 1918 the few models available had a top speed of around 30 mph. They also had totally different controls and handling characteristics. he'd be freaking out when he hit 40-50 mph.
Or how they made it to Cairo. That jet has a range of only 300 miles or 600 total. They would've crached in the Atlantic.
Well automobiles unlike planes have gotten easier to operate over time and the layout really hasn't changed much. Unlike jets vs biplanes I wonder were he learned to use the flaps on take off his planes didn't have or need it but that jet does.
@@cactusman1771 but still different in the early bikes like the oned they had during ww1 had gears that need to be operated like those in cars
@@ChiefManny1 which is funny cause they even discussed how the old planes couldn’t go that far. Yet ignore that new planes also can’t go that far when they are the same small size
