Episode 75: Wonder Woman 1984 w/ Ian Anderson

Movie Marathoners

Before The Snyder Cut of the Justice League changes cinema - and humanity - forever, Warner Bros gave us a Christmas Day gift: Wonder Woman 1984, directly to HBO Max. Ian Anderson joins to review the already hugely divisive film. But instead of hyperbolizing, we try to find a middle ground and figure out what works with this sequel, but also where it went wrong, and why it doesn't work nearly as well as its predecessor. We breakdown why Wonder Woman is an important character and where (and when) we want to see her go in her third film. In a massive 0.2 section, we give quick reviews of everything we've been watching over the Holiday season, including "The MIdnight Sky," "Ma Rainey's Black Bottom," "Black Bear," and more!
