Please tell me it's falling well short of expectations. Those of us who care about the future of American film have prayed that big budget empty comic book movies like Wonder Woman will begin to flop resoundingly and force change and experimentation in the film industry.
sharePray for yourself, not for your vision of the future of American film.

yeeeah, and that bieber guy is killing music. and, and, don't get me started on those meat eaters, ooooh those darn meat eaters.
Give it a rest already Metatron. I admit comic book movies are getting rather boring but they are not killing the movie industry. There are plenty of good films out there, tv shows also.....THAT ARE NOT SUPERHERO OR FANTASY. I have no problem finding good stuff. Unfortunately theater releases will mostly be big budget fantasy films. Fear not though. People will and are tiring of these films.....
shareIt costs virtually nothing to film a high quality HD movie on your own device and publish it online. Film has been democratized by technology already. What the studios do has no effect on the art that any film lover can create.

Nope, but this comment is.
Far from it. I haven't cared for DC's other recent movies (the superhero movies from another certain studios is a different story), but I'm glad this one managed to turn things around in many ways. It's supremely entertaining and genuinely well-put together. Perhaps there'll come a day when these movies will run out of steam, but as of now it doesn't seem like that will happen anytime soon. So with that said, bring on the sequel! (And let the "tough" crowd keep crying about how they're being fed what they oppose.)
shareNope, its exceeding expectations. Just remember that no one can predict the future.
shareI can't wait to get my hands on a Bluray copy of it. Hope they load it with lots of extras.
