Wonder Woman 1984 (Patreon)

151 minutes of utter nothing. Diana is WW for about five minutes of the blandest, softest, most weightless, most poorly choregraphed scenes in 'film.' There are episodes of Green Arrow with higher production value. $200 million dollars? What the fuck? This has to be money-laundering. Gal Gadot just moved slowly in front of a flat green-screen. The story was . . . . Lol, what? So there's a magic 'wishing stone,' and the bad guy knows about it because . . . And then later the President of the United States show him a magic television thing that let's him 'touch' people through televisions because . . . like . . . The wishing stone wasn't powerful enough to just do that . . . Even though it grants wishes . . . You still need magic television technology to spread the 'particles' around.
I refuse to believe a human being wrote this. This has to be another attempt by an AI at defeating the Turing Test by generating a comprehensible story from scratch, only it failed, hard.
I GUESS the message of the movie could be "Don't let bad dudes make promises over television," or something. There's a certain Buddhist attitude about that, since Buddhists believe that root of all suffering is attachment/ambition, and the path to 'bodhi' is in giving those things up. I'm REALLY stretching. That's trying to rationalize and completely irrational script.
Why do bad movies even get made? Why are mediocre people so fucking aggressive about mass-producing and mass-marketing their mediocrity? There's something really bothersome about these sorts of people. Christians who proselytize, Muslims who engage in Jihad, and normies who try to make art. The world would be a better place if these people stayed would shut up and stay in the audience with the rest of us.
Fan-fiction has now fully eclipsed established franchises in terms of quality and coherence. Wow.
