Nice. I am genuinely surprised. Just when I thought I was out of the DCU (or at least watching them on the big screen) they pull me back in.

The more exciting thing for me is hearing that the villain is actually good!
Yea he's been saying a lot of interesting things...

I don't think this being good puts faith in JL or anything though .
It'll just make it more transparent how awful it is compared to this most likely.
Will see though. Hearing how well done WW is after seeing how shoehorned she was in BVS calls more for this being an anomaly project than DCU getting on the right track.

Crashing this plane... with no survivors!
I'd be more confident in Gadot and Jenkins if I knew their maintenance level score.

Hello? Is this Not's ass?
Yes, I'll hold.
Hello, yes? Not's ass? No? Sorry. How long will-- yes, sure.

Hi! Yeah! Not's ass? Yes, I wanted to maybe ask you something about

Good. The one that caps the second act is fantastic.
There is some slow mo, but I thought it worked.

Don't let your memes be dreams.
I second this question.
On a scale of John Wick to Taken 3, how smooth is the action?
We memes now

I'd say overall you'll come out positive on the action. A couple of instances of quick cuts, but not enough that it would define it as the style of the action.
I am a better hero than Superman

from these reviews, this is the most hyped i've been for a super hero since The Dark Knight. i think we may have another masterpiece that reaches the heights of Spider-Man 2 and The Dark Knight.

You can dream my meme! You can dream my meme!
I enjoyed BvS and SS so I already expected to enjoy this film. At least I won't have GAF offended for liking this one.
"Now"?
How about the use of slow-mo though, is it a lot? I'm really not a fan of it.
Too bad that the movie opens on the 15th here in germany.

My bad.
Spider-Man 2, The Dark Knight, and Logan.
may have to add Wonder Woman to that list. <3
False, no one is. Superman the GOAT.
Logan was superb... but at no point was I actually hyped going into it.
Anything over $85M domestic gives Patty the highest domestic opening for a female directed film.
I think the highest domestic total for a female directed film (ignoring a few female co-directed animated films) is Alvin And The Chipmunks: The Squeakquel, which made around $220M.

It's stupid to compare Dark Knight with Wonder Woman. They share 0 similarity beside being DC super hero movie.

Oh yeah. During more "indoor" encounters there's a *bit* too much for my tastes. I'm not much of a fan of it either. But honestly it wasn't enough to sully me on the action and I did appreciate the clarity it brought to some of those shots.

Who is doing this?
It's not about betting the film out and it's not part of some "people keep doubting Wonder Woman" cycle, as you implied. It's about understanding the kind of movie that can hit $1 billion.
Right, no one said that wouldn't be a success. You said there was no chance of it hitting that number, which is kind of crazy. Cap M hitting $500m is far more likely than WW hitting $1b.
(And obviously, there's also zero chance in hell that Cap M can hit $1b. Both of these movies are the type that will likely max out somewhere between $500m - $700m, give or take, which would likely be considered great.)
What are you talking about? No-one's comparing them.

Critically, I hope it reaches those levels.
Personally, as someone who isn't fond of Raimi's Spider-Man or Nolan's Batman trilogies, I hope the filmmakers have a little more respect for the main character than they did. I freely admit I'm an anomaly as far as those works go, but I really didn't like the Spider-Man or Batman from those movies.

The action is not the high point of the movie. It's full of bad slow mo and non slow mo scenes are only above average. The actions carry no momentum and wire works are clearly visible.
The is little to no camera shake tho if that's what you're asking.
You're good people DV. One of the few to even spell my name right

I saw some pages ago people talking about TDKR being better than this movie and such.
It came out in like March, dude.
Eh, that ending soured me on it. Good movie, obviously stands out in comparison to what we usually get, but wasn't a masterpiece for me.
