It's confirmed that Wonder Woman 1984 is an anti-Donald Trump movie, which is something I've said about the movie for a while now.
And I'm guessing that is the real reason "they" wanted it released in December and didn't want to wait until next June where "they" said the June release would be stale, which is because WW84 is getting released during the election.
The confirmation Wonder Woman 1984 is anti-Trump comes from the reviews for the movie that are now out as press screenings were held and the press are allowed to post reviews.
In their Wonder Woman 1984 review, Collider offers (no spoilers), "I Wish This Were a Better Movie."
"Patty Jenkins’ sequel is a well-intentioned but sloppy punch against Trumpism," says the reviewer.
The reviewer also happens to be anti-Trump (surprise) and offers: "Jenkins makes no secret to what she’s aiming for with her movie. Set in the 1980s, she depicts a world of excess, self-entitlement, and indulgence, and Lord is a distinctly Trumpian figure with his reliance on mass media and conning others to amass more power (although Lord differs from Trump by genuinely loving his child and not just seeing his offspring as an extension of his own vanity)."
The review also offers "the execution is atrocious," "the movie doesn’t fare much better with Barbara," and "Wonder Woman 1984 becomes even more muddled when you simply try to understand what Max Lord is up to."
In an interview back in August, Jenkins also confirmed that Pedro Pascal's (who recently called half the Star Wars fans nazis because they support Trump) Max Lord is in part inspired by Donald Trump.
"He's one of them," Jenkins confirmed when asked if Trump influenced the villain of the film. "Trump's definitely one of the people we looked at, but it's any of those kind of mavericks of business success that was big in the '80s. Who went on to be major players in our world in potentially questionable other ways."
The good news for AT&T, WarnerMedia and Patty Jenkins is that they don't have to worry about the Trump supporters going out to see the film, as WarnerMedia is releasing the flick in theaters and on the HBO Max streaming service the same day, so if it doesn't do well in theaters, it really doesn't matter.
To boot, WarnerMedia paid Jenkins and the cast as if the movie made a billion dollars at the box office in order to get them to sign off on the HBO Max release.
While I haven't seen the movie yet, it seems that Wonder Woman 1984 has fallen into the same trap as all of Hollywood's feminist and liberal projects, as the story is sacrificed for the sake of an agenda.
Jenkins is now at Disney with Star Wars.
Wonder Woman 1984 also stars Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Kristen Wiig, Robin Wright, and Connie Nielsen.
Evidently Time-Warner was trying to make a $200,000,000 donation to the Democrat Presidential campaign.
Looks like they're going to have to eat it now. Hope they choke.
So edgey
I think I’ll stick to the 1970s TV show if I want a fix of Wonder Woman (even though Lynda Carter apparently celebrated Kamala).
If it’s on ATT’s HBO MAx, almost no one will see it, and fewer pay incremental dollars to see it.
ATT is ruining everything they touch. A company that has lost its mojo, for sure.
Just today they announced more cuts, and even cuts to retiree benefits. They cut friggin PTO (personal time off) for existing employees.
Cut/cut/cut is NOT a play to win.
They won’t exist in 5 years in the stock market.
i hope the villain wins
Looks like the Mandalorian is Trump.
Kids will want his LEGO set...
The only "mojo" they had was when they were a sanctioned monopoly.
(But they did pick a good looking girl for their current commercials.)

His reviews are awesome, and his focus is how PC ruins movies.
Shows you the lack of diversity Hollywood supports. By now Wonder Woman should the a gay, transgender of color.
And then at the end, Wonder Woman wakes up and you realize that the whole movie was just her having a dream.
wonder woman was one of the weakest dc/marvel characters ever created, all around. lipstick on a pig of one of their all time worst characters.
I’m going to miss looking at whats-her-name.
shes an amazon
shes lesbian
I’m done with WW. WHORE!
CCP stooge she is now that they control Hahhrreewwoodd.
Not after some quality time with Sap. :-)
