I've been down this road with you before, but I still don't see how Wonder Woman and Man of Steel are similar at all really. (Aside from being superhero stories where the hero leaves home, finds out about themselves, and fights a bad guy.... which happens in a lot of superhero movies.)

Doesnt just happen in a lot of superhero movies it happens in a lot of movies.
There arent that many plots to begin with once you strip them down to their bare bones |

I don't really see that in alot of superheroe movies though. Not every origin story is that on point with most aspects like these two were. Destor said it was Captain America with boobs but the only similarities in the two to me was that they were both war pieces, the story told was way different.

Still haven't seen Wonder Woman. Somehow can't get to it. Probably because it's about a girl and girls have cooties.

So has the last Star Wars flick. |

Well, as much as I don't give a shit about the WW character, I'll still take it over Star Wars.

If youre in the target demo ep8 was good. If youre outside of that it was bad.
The choice to make long time fans anything other than your target demo might be a mistake. We'll have to see what the 8 year old audience theyre after thinks in 15 years. |

I think the numbers for Solo speak well enough on that.

I dont. I think solo shows that alienating the die hards and then making nostalgia films doesnt work. You have to commit. Going all in this new cannon could still work.
The portion of the audience that has accepted the new stuff are as fanatical as the old gaurd; i wouldnt write it off just yet. Im skeptical though. |

So is it worth what I assume is 3 hours of my time?
I'm not a Star Wars fan. I thought The Force Awakens was pretty cool but it was just random sci-fi stuff to me. |

If there is one thing we can all agree on, it is that Suicide Squad was a giant turd and two hours of your life that you would prefer to have back.
If you doubt me... |

I think youre saying that glibbly but it really will be. Where the franchise is in...5 years? That to me me very telling. What does a trilogy look like once theyve ran through the nostalgia acts?

I just saw Solo, and it was way better then I thought it was going to be. I’d rather watch Solo again then Last Jedi.

Diana wasn't an outcast, she was beloved by literally her whole society.

I loved Episode 8, and I liked Solo. Solo definitely deserved a better box office run. But I'm not a diehard and I'm always open for a different or risky take.

I liked Suicide Squad more than BvS. Still was not a great movie at all, and had terrible editing/story-telling.... but even with that, it still beat BvS for me.

Liking a movie and acknowledging its bad are two different things.
Like I've said, BvS is a guilty pleasure of mine. But I know what I'm watching is trash. |

I mean we seen the movie differently then because she was an outcast to me being the only child on the island. She even showed that it bothered her a bit being the only child. Also being the only child on the island made her universally loved but I don't see that being any different than the love the Kent's had for Clark. Both knew they were something special but didn't really know what that special was and took a cautious approach to raising them.

Being an only child does not make you an outcast. Thats reaching

No one cast her out. She was lovingly embraced by all. Not having kids to play with =/= outcast

An outcast usually means someone who's not wanted by anyone and that's clearly not the case with WW.

Andre 3000 could play Wonder Woman and she still wouldn't qualify as outcast.

Being different doesn't necessarily make you an outcast.
