Episode #53 – Wonder Woman 1984

Wonder Woman 1984 has debuted on HBO Max and we can’t really understand why Patty Jenkins would set this in the 80s and then not really use the era to her advantage. We also have comments about Pedro Pascal’s Trumpian Maxwell Lord and critiques about a bunch of choices made in this movie. But it’s not all bad—we’ve got some positive thoughts about the performances, particularly Chris Pine and Kristen Wiig.
