Goddamn. That was the only part of the movie I liked in entirety. Yes I did find it strange that this child was able to outperform all the adults at everything but I just went with it, the visuals and music were great.

That clip never gets old, lol
It's the absolute indignation in that first No - I love applying it to trivial internet forum disagreements
The 2nd No is definitely treading on Palpatine territory.

And the fact that he needs to *follow up* on that perfectly indignant "no" with the absurdly prolonged "nooooooo" while contorting his body to attack a perfectly innocent display case that isn't even in his field of vision during his outburst.

Yeah oddly enough, the random long extended scene at the start which literally has nothing to do with the rest of the movie was maybe the best scene of the film. It wasn't believable but it was still charming in a silly way. It almost had more spectacle than the rest of the movie too lol.
Yeah, I think one needs to keep in mind that she's an actual goddess, not a plain old Amazonian like the rest of them. But of course her outperforming them to that extent is inconsistent with how she was portrayed at the beginning of the first film.

Detolf's beware when a-dev is in a mood to use Picard says No
Well that'll do it then. Scene is salvageable and can be safely transplanted into the beginning of a better WW film.

Thanks to Jye's unholy glee
...I can't wait to see it
(when I can see if for free).Had this random musing over the incredible attention paid to the details in the Mandalorian (in spite of jeans guy
) e.g. how the reflection of a green light saber was reflected in Beskar armor...Now I see screen shots in a multi-million dollar production, the FAVORED of WB, of green screens, and Jye speaks of Wonder Woman rolling around with a couple of plastic mannequins...who can say, I might like WW 2 as much as I like Lake Placid (a fav guilty pleasure movie).
Personally think BW will be awesome; it's more of a problem with the release dragging on so long, will anyone give a *&^%$.

A Goddess? Now that's cheating!
I guess the lesson she learned was pointless from the start.
Being made of clay and imbued with life by Zeus doesn't really make you a goddess, I always thought of her as being like the other Amazons, much stronger than the average Woman but not more so than other Amazonians. But you're right, she's not supposed to be a typical Amazonian, but it still was a bit ridiculous, especially when considering how she was portrayed in the first movie.

I left out in an edit that I thought it was the highlight of the movie, then I remembered the fireworks and learning to flying scenes which are much briefer but I liked more. If only Diana was in her mid-to late teens I would've bought it, but that little girl was just too young, all I could think about was trying to keep pace with adults while walking at that age, but then again I'm only 1/4 god.
Just ignore that the kid is so small and chant "she's a goddess, she's much stronger than the others" and it'll be fine!

Spectre is on telly right now and damn that fight on the train with Bautista was good at least. It was novel seeing Bond properly get his ass kicked

Yeah, probably. Maybe they were trying to appeal to girls of that age but, as with Anakin in Star Wars, little kids would have been just as happy seeing a teenager and it could have been more plausible to the rest of us.
Why is that so hard for some filmmakers to understand? I don't know that I can think of a single movie from my youth that featured a young kid in a war type setting that I appreciated more than a teenage or adult hero. Even Atreyu in The Neverending Story was a bit of a stretch but he's freaking John Wick compared to Jake Lloyd, lol.
Kids never look back in age, always forward.

Newt, Feral Kid and Short Round will be in multiverse WW2020 
ShortRound would have made an excellent Ani.

Ani: You call him Master Qui-Gon, doll...

See those were all *decent* kids even and yet no one liked them as much as the main heroes, lol.

"Hang on R2, we going for a ride." *spins starfighter -- because its a good trick*
