Wonder Woman - 10/5
BvS - 3.5/5
Suicide Squad - haven't seen it

So, you are worried a character created as pro-matriarchy propaganda might have feminist undertones.

I can't believe y'all even have time to post on movie forums.

Shouldn't you be loosening your wives/girlfriends chains so they can move from the bedroom back to the kitchen to cook your meals...

Oh, Daddy. Sometimes you say the craziest things.

This made me laugh for some reason.

Dr. Poison is underrated as ****. She may not have had a great deal of screen time or dialogue, but I loved her character. She conveyed everything she needed to with her eyes alone.

I'm joking.

Since you've seen this, perhaps you can clarify something.
In the film, one of the Amazons said something like men are only useful for procreation and nothing else. To me, it sounds like they only see men as ***** donors essentially.

Was that the version David E. Kelley was in charge of that made her as some CEO or something?

Is this for real? After reading this, I'm shocked The Avengers and Serenity came out as good as they did. I STILL don't know what the big deal is with this guy because he's beyond overrated IMO.

Pretty sure that script was a rough writing just to get to concept. As far as the sex thing, it was clear the Amazons thought very little of the male gender, which is pretty much how they are written in the comics as far as I can tell.

Funny that you mentioned that. I'm not a comic book expert but from what I've heard about WW and its origin is that the creator originally meant the character to be a spokesperson for outright supremacy and in the comics, the Amazons would kill any male child if they we're to give birth to them or just kill any male outright.

The Amazons don't trust the world of men. It's war-ridden, full of poverty and crime and hate. Themyscira is a paradise. And as far as they can tell, the primary difference is: There are no men. So, no, they don't think much of men. Though as time goes on, their opinion changes slowly -- well, some of them anyways.

Smithey's always been an *******. I don't even understand why he bothers reviewing these type of movies anymore. You will be hard-pressed to find a big budget, commercial movie he actually likes.

Why did he even bother to review this movie if he was just going to put it down so harshly ?

I'll go there and change their minds. Or die by snu snu. Either way is fine with me.

Smithey is trash. He gave Toy Story 3 a negative review

Somebody has to, I guess.

It's still an agenda driven mess. And that may be the least of its issues.

So would I. A lazy rehash of the first two with half the laughs and enjoyment.
