Wonder Woman was screened yesterday.

Hopefully it's good.

Normally I don't care about others' opinions about movies, but the DCEU needs positive attention so I can keep getting more movies. It's good that Wonder Woman can break the negative streak.

We'll see. Some fans early on were also saying how awesome the other three DCEU flicks were. MOS got mixed critics' responses (though the audience reception was still decent), while BvS and SS were hated by critics and seen as divisive by audiences.

i think the difference between ghostbusters and WW is that WW is not pushing an agenda, the film is what it is, a film about wonder woman.  it's simply a film with a female lead, like ghost in the shell, like lucy, like don't breathe, like the witch, films that are just good and none of these films went out of their way to say, "if you don't like this you're a sexist troll" or that men are inferior/women are superior, and i bet you that the vast majority of critics (or audiences) weren't even thinking about that as they watched and wrote their reviews.

ghostbusters pulled that card because they took a coward's way out, placing the blame on everyone else rather than the product, which planted that fear, guilt, shame in the critics effecting how they would critique that dumb mediocre film.  now they don't have to say "we made a pos," but all they need to say is "we made a film, and we love it, but we did the best we could"

now if wonder woman fails they might pull out that card, but i hope wb and everyone involved has observed the terrible response when doing that, and avoid such actions, because no one enjoys being labeled as "whatever" because of a basic preference.

Can the DCEU just end please?

Boom!
