He is indeed, this scene looks insane. I am so excited for Justice League.

Wonder Woman has a commanding lead over the rest of the DCEU.

Saw the movie last night. I found it highly entertaining, and give it a solid 4/5. The beginning and middle portions had a fresh feel, from a comic-book movie standpoint. While the final act was standard action-hero fare. Some of the CGI visuals were a little distracting (i.e. fake).

Gal held her own, acting-wise, and Patty did a great job surrounding her with good talent, and tailoring the scenes to suit her strengths.

I found the supporting cast (the other guys recruited by Trevor) to be dull and irrelevant

Pine is? It feels like a lot of people here are taking his words too literally, or too seriously. I doubt there's anything particularly serious, or with ill intent, behind those brief words from him. Hardly seems like anything to react to.

Dude, I'm not sitting here quivering with nerd rage that he's dared to besmirch the good ship Marvel or anything. It just seems like an odd way to draw attention to your own film's depiction of war when you don't appear to understand what the 'Infinity' part of 'Infinity War' actually refers to, even as just a throwaway gag.

Saw it yesterday and thought it was ok. I would give it 2 1/2 stars. A bit long but then you get to see Gal Gadot longer. The second half of the story was quite a bit ripped off from Captain America The First Avenger. It was beautifully filmed with great SE and Sound. It's going to take some sort of SE, 3D, steelbook, etc type of gimmick to get me to buy this on blu ray. It was worth checking out on a rainy day yesterday..at Tuesday's discount admission prices.

Here's one question I have that maybe someone else has already asked:

[Show spoiler]
Why didn't Steve Trevor have a parachute?
There should have been one on the plane if he was not prepared.

I thought he was going to tap her on the shoulder when they were mourning him and it would turn out he was alright. Ha. Granted, he could be using that everyone thinks he's dead to advantage with his spying?

They didn't use them in WWI, generals thought they would encourage cowardice so nobody connected to the military had one on their plane.

No, I'm not kidding.

Give it a rest already, your agenda is stale and tiresome.

I agree. This is getting outright ridiculous now. This is now bordering on obsession now.

To be honest, I was getting you guys mixed up until right now.

Whoa. I hope you're not associating me with that guy. My response was to Cremildo, agreeing that what the previous poster said was nonsense.
This same poster is at The Mummy boards spewing the same thing.

No, I got your point.

Parachute use in World War I
1914 - 1918

Prior to the Great War the use of parachutes was seen as foolhardy and undertaken only by showmen and women
to thrill crowds of voyeuristic spectators.
Cavalry units were the main reconnaissance and observers of enemy positions who then reported back to enable artillery to
accurately engage enemy positions.

The war of 1914 was to change this role.

It was the advent of artillery with greater ranges and the ability of aerial machines to rise high enough to observe and report back more
comprehensively the layout of the unfolding battle that changed this aspect of warfare.
Observation of the enemy from a stable platform was achieved by the use
of tethered observation balloons carrying beneath them a wicker basket occupied by observers.

The very stability and static nature of the balloons rendered them as a tempting target for enemy aircraft and the method
of winching down a balloon by its ground crew was not always fast enough to ensure a safe descent and saving of its occupant.
To secure the safety of the observers parachutes were used as "life-savers".

They were attached to the balloon rigging and all the observer had to do in theory was to jump out and his falling mass would snatch
the parachute from its container and the parachute would open.
As the war continued the use of the parachute became an accepted and trusted method to save lives.

No such device was considered appropriate for aviators and crews to fixed wing aircraft.

Yeah, he wasn't just talking about MS films and even then he wasn't trashing anything. People are going overboard with his statement.

The Mummy doesn't appear to be that threatening:

Without "borrowing" every good element and "Marvelizing" the character, I'm betting all we'd have is another music video/Zack Snyder candy fart of a movie.

So, instead of stoking the rivalry, DC only fans should just say THANK YOU and move on. (Hoping very much that Justice League has copied Avengers)

Overall, this is a pretty good movie BECAUSE they copied the MCU formula.

.

This film is nothing like the kiddie Disney crap that you love. Forum members are discussing what actually happened in this film as opposed to the "hilarious jokes " that are shoved into Disney comic sitcoms. The villain was attempting to kill WW so she had no time for one liners. Could you imagine a WW after seeing Aries "Yes! I know this guy! My mom told me stories about him!" Also WW is a goddess, captain America is just a guy on steroids, no comparison. Lastly, you should thanking DC because a lot of your favorite marvel characters are direct ripoffs from DC characters.
