    Wonder Woman (2017)

    Wonder Woman (2017)

    Wonder Woman 84 is out so we look at Gal Gadot’s first solo outing as the heroic Amazonian.
    The DC Extended Universe has been, let’s say …a mixed bag but where does Patty Jenkins’ Wonder Woman film stand in the DCEU rankings?
    In this episode we talk
    -Is Chris Pine the best Chris?
    -Gal Gadot and our Chris’s privilege
    -The kinky origin of Wonder Woman
    -The lack of male gaze in this film
    -Scottish characters in movies
    -Plot sleight of hand
    -and a lot of dumb dirty jokes, obviously.
    Remind yourself of the film here:
