“I love this film and loved making it. Chris has such a powerful and specific voice that really shines here, so it’s been a delight to watch this film come together and find its audience. Chris was a fantastic director to work with; one of the most natural first-time directors I have ever witnessed and the depth of the messaging and subtlety in this film surprised me at every turn. I’ve watched it many, many times as we made it, and I find something new upon every viewing. I’m proud of the work and can’t wait for everyone to see it.” — Patty Jenkins

alright. so. i'll never be in a better mood than right now for this movie and we need to get it done with so we can actually enjoy ourselves with the next three movies in our DCEU watch so. now seated for Wonder Woman (2017). before we get started, quick disclaimers:

1. Free Palestine. Fuck Gal Gadot. we will be doing what we can to pretend she's not who she is for the duration of this movie watch. it will be hard, but i sat through Gone With The Wind and the movie before this and i can make it through this.

2. i have seen this movie before at home (as you'd know if you've been following me on the DCEU rewatch so far) back in 2017 and i remember enjoying it. i thought it was decent and Chris Pine stole the show (as he usually does in anything he's involved in). haven't seen it since. i look forward to seeing how i feel after this watch when i can now catalogue my thoughts more effectively and am more capable of appreciating and critiquing art. we all saw how much a disaster Suicide Squad (2016) was a few days ago, even though i remembered enjoying the movie. here's to hoping this is at least better than Suicide Squad (2016).

alright, with that out of the way. let's watch Wonder Woman (2017).
