Yes.

I've never seen a film so awful and it be zero fun whatsoever. Worst DC film easily.

Shit, I think I liked Catwoman and Elektra more than this.

A movie about wishes, in which there are no rules, just a ridiculous amount of plot holes and general stupidity.

At least Suicide Squad and Venom were dumb fun. This film is just dumb.

Ironically, the best F4 movie is the one we weren't supposed to see.

Green Lantern
Justice League
Batman vs Superman
X-Men: Dark Phoenix

All of those are way worse than Wonder Woman 1984.

Strong disagree. Preferred every one of those films. (Even though they're all bad.)

There's at least one decent scene in all those films. 1984 doesn't even have a single scene I like.

My biggest problem with it was all the villains that had absolutely no speaking line at all. They were just random people that never got introduced. From what I recall about X-Men, there were always a lot of villains, but each one had his own personality and story line. Dark Phoenix just tossed in a bunch of people as if they were filler spots without ever bothering to let us know who they were.

I wouldn't count Catwoman and Elektra as modern and I find those way worse. But say since the start of the MCU. To me hands down this has been the worse. I almost never just stop watching movies. And I just had to stop watching this one. I hated Diana in this one SO SO SO much .

It's the worst DCEU film, though that might have more to do with its morals than the rest of its production. Stuff like Catwoman and all the F4 movies are way worse though.

Yeah the standard of comic book films is much higher now than when it was when Elektra and Daredevil came out.

For something like WW84 to come out with standards being so high, and it being a follow up to arguably the best movie in the DC live action universe, was shocking. It has little to no redeeming qualities to it other than Pedro Pascal hamming it up and being the only one who knew it was a hamfest.

And it goes to show you that the MCU has delayed their movies with the anticipation of theaters returning to some form of capacity, whereas WB just went ahead and released this. That tells me that they knew this movie was not worth waiting for theater reopenings.

Wonder Woman 1988 wasn't great but those three were utter garbage with no redeeming qualities.

When movies are bad at this level, I reduce it to finding some form of comparative benefit. Taking Suicide Squad and comparing it to WW84, at a minimum, Suicide Squad had enjoyable performances from Robbie & Will Smith. WW84, you be hard pressed to say Pascal was good.

Venom was funny and Tom Hardy was great. Again, dumb fun. Suicide Squad had the best live action portrayal of Harley Quinn. Hellboy was not good but it at least had a couple decent scenes.

There's nothing good about 1984.

I'm not. Not even a little bit, that's the sad part. The first film is great, easily the best DC Universe film. This was not funny bad or entertaining bad. It was just bad.

Fant4stic at least had a plot that somewhat has rules. The wishing system in Dragon Ball makes more sense than 1984's.

That is your opinion. People have different opinions. I enjoyed Wonder Woman 1984 more then those three pieces of trash I mentioned. That is my opinion.

No.

Many people argue that literature and film and every art form is "subjective." Reality: it's a mix. There are some things that make a story good and some things that do not.

All the wishing and bullshit and all the plot holes make the film objectively bad. Can it still be entertaining? I guess, but that doesn't mean the film is "good."

Because it's not mediocre and it's a follow up to the best DC Universe film by far.

Suicide Squad

Thor 2
Thor 1
The Incredible Hulk
X-Men: The Last Stand
Justice League
Batman v Superman

All significantly worse than WW84, and that's far from all of them.

People mention BvS and Suicide Squad but at least there are bits in those movies that are entertaining. That batman vs thug scene in BvS alone has more entertainment than whole of WW84.

Haven't seen it, and I have trouble believing it could be worse than that cinematic abortion BvS. But I wouldn't put it past the Snyderverse shit to just top itself every time with garbage acting, shitty editing and a running time that's 30+ minutes longer than it needed to be.

Also I heard that there's a scene where Wonder Woman saves a group of children playing soccer in the street from getting hit by a missile, while Gal Gadot has always been in support of a controversial 2014 operation by the IDF that led to a missile killing a group of children who were playing soccer in the street. So that just seems inappropriate at best.

It wasn't THAT bad, but it wasn't good either. Probably a 5/10 movie for me and I won't watch it again. DC gonna DC, if they fucked up Suicide Squad with Gunn at the helm, I'm probably gonna stop watching DC movies. I have high hopes for it for sure, he took a more obscure group of heroes and made a gem of a movie that everyone thought was gonna flop. I'm confident that SS is gonna be good.
