Okay a few things.
1. In Justice League, Diana tells Bruce she cut herself off from the world for 100 years (give or take) so how was she doing Wonder Woman stuff in the 80s out in the open? Surely Bruce would have found it easier to prove she was some kind of immortal goddess like person when she was still doing her stuff 36 years ago instead of basing it on an old photo from WW1.
2. Why the heck does nobody in the present day seem to recall the time the whole world almost fell apart because someone had the magical power to grant everybody's wishes?
3. Why was the appearance of Superman in MoS and BvS seen as such a big deal when Wonder Woman, who also has super powers predated him by decades?
the movie simply adds plot holes to an already confused continuity
OK I see this is getting nowhere fast with no results...Only READING what you want to read and then ignoring everything else....Now before I say something I might regret I'm going to bite my tongue and hit the ignore button because your just trolling and have NOT a clue so goodbye.

The World in MoS - "OMG, there is a guy who is super strong and can fly. We have been shown that there are people out there with amazing powers. If only we didn't already know that from that time in 1984 when a woman who was also super strong and could fly saved the entire world from a Wishmageddon which also proved to us that actual magic exists. Maybe then this guy with lasers coming out of his eyes might seem a little more impressive, now he is just kinda... been there, done that"

Rob Liefeld isn't a comic artist, he's a women's clothing designer. Think about it
I'd give it a 5/10.
It was reasonably entertaining, and the concept was pretty decent. However, I think that the script needed some heavy polishing and a few rewrites in order to smooth out the plot holes.
I'll give WW84 a 4/10. The performances of Chris Pine, Gal Gadot, and Pedro Pascal were fantastic (Kristin Wiig was horribly mis-cast). I also really enjoyed the entire mall action scene in the beginning. Other than that, I loathed the rest of the movie.

And it has fallen a couple of more points on the Rotten Tomatoes Critical Score to 61%. It is hovering very close to becoming “rotten”. This is quite a disappointing scenario for a sequel to the most well received movie (critically and audience-wise) of the DCEU...

yep... the 1984 scenario is one of the biggest issues, and really it added nothing to it. Nothing about that story needed to be told in the 80's, and doing so messed with their timeline.
And to be fair... the 80's didn't have much in the way of video and security and she was shown to be destroying those when she acted... but if she didn't want to be seen, why not just go in street clothes like her ancestor?! So the idea that there was no record of her but strange crazy sounding witnesses is almost plausable... but why wear a costume if you don't want to be noticed...
I love the wacky silver age style plot... but yeah, it wasn't done well.

I like the first film but found this really dissapointing, it certainly wasn’t worth the 16 quid I spent renting it.
When Wonder Woman 1984 comes out on DVD, I am BUYING it for my collection!![]()
I will say that on a second viewing, many of the short-falls with this film are made even more apparent...
Sometimes, a poor movie can be tolerated if there are good action sequences between the hum-drum... unfortunately, this is where WW84 falls short the most.
Though, I still love the Little Diana scene!
