From Empire UK:

>"What motivates her is philosophical," explains director Patty Jenkins on the truly wondrous Diana Prince (Gal Gadot), seen here on the World War I battlefield. "She isn't just taking out bad guys or fighting crime. She believes in goodness and love. [She] is fierce and willing to fight, but only to protect a better vision for mankind. Hers is really a coming-of-age story."

>Jenkins also went some way to explain the World War I setting. "My approach was to focus on telling the story of mechanised war and how that would look to a god visiting our world for the first time," Jenkins explains. "[I wanted the audience to understand the horrors that a war on this scale makes possible and how shocking that would be to someone who comes with a strong sense of honour and justice. She doesn't realise yet just how senselessly dark the world can be."

And of course it will be british or US troops against germans in Flanders. Because that's all what ww1 was about.
I aint even mad.

>>88752482
But the world was always senselessly dark.
WWI is just where mankind started to get really efficient at it.
It's not the dawn of senseless cruelty in any way.

sound like that would be pretty obvious. its her origin and why she got disillusioned by man's world.

Ive lost track of how many things this movie is supposed to "be".
>>88752580
Setting this in WWI was a mistake from the start. Ignoring the retarded Cap/WWII comparisons, the conflict itself was a complicated clusterfuck between several nations and theres a reason why there arent as many movies made around it. WWII there at least was a "face" to the enemy. Personally I dont see Wonder Woman handling such a depressing and dark conflict properly
>>
>>88752708
shes been on her ilsand since birth, this is her first taste and at a war where the horrors were just starting to get there worse and being perfected. not to mention the chance that she also lived through WW2 and the other wars and injustices that the 1900s provided.

Do you think they'll address any of the blatant hypocrisy inherent in the Amazons themselves?

Or how about coming from an isolated, homogeneous culture with no interpersonal conflict that tries to tell the rest of the world, and its hundreds of different cultures, that they are evil for fighting with each other?

Just as a guess, I'm gonna say no.

Can't wait! I just hope they remember this is primarily an action movie, but I'm kinda put off slightly by the deer in the headlights version of Wonder Woman they seem to be pushing here. I'm kinda tired of sweet little innocent Diana not knowing simple crap that amazons should already know about.

In either case, I hope that veneer of innocence fades quickly while the movie progresses.

>>
>>88754804
I'm tired of having to explain this crap using comics because you tards refuse to accept it and keep posting Injustice like mongoloids

So here, in BvS she has to deflect debris with her shield.
Thus, if flying small objects can hurt her, so can bulelts, even if only partially.
She also has to use the shield against Doomsday's first explosion, and she is never hit directly by him, always using the shield or the bracelets to defend

And I know she should have been a bit scratched from the battle at least from when she rolls hard on the floor, but Snyder is retarded and his characters never get bruised in anything aside from the really important bits like getting stabbed in the heart. Batman didn't get bruised either.

do you have to be remembered that she believed she was made from clay in the New 52, until it was revealed she wasn't?

This is the same BvS where Doomsday an cause explosions that vaporize buildings but Batman can hide behind a piece of rubble at ground zero of that same explosion and is perfectly unscathed.

I'm not going to sit here and deny what you're saying is what happened but let's not pretend like there's consistent laws of physics at play here. It goes by what looks good for a shot. If they decide Diana should be bullet proof in a scene to sell her as badass, they'll do it. And you'll likely defend that too.

Wonder Woman is coming of age? Isn't she like 5000 years of some crap like that? And end of the day isn't she relaxing on some paradise island? Compassionate? Loving? Hmm. I guess she is Wonder Jesus she just loves us all thought she knows nothing about life outside and how effed up humans are. Also she came for a photo of herself. I mean you've been outside for decades it seems and you sitting on your ass when Zod turns up to invade the earth. Least Batman shows some interest in world events even if he wanted to kill Superman. Wonder Woman love and compassion isn't very universal is it? I wonder if these people even think about what and how they write. They just say these nice sounding things but the character development is bs.

Wonder Woman's been rebooted so many times that it's impossible to care. Even the New 52 version is currently being rebooted, apparently to the older (Infinite Crisis?) version.

why? romance? I don't know exactly what kinds of things that demography would like. vydiashit with cool action would more like 14-15 I guess.

Unfortunate the DCEU is based on the New 52, you know, the one that was so bad that it got rebooted into the far superior Rebirth.
>>
>>88752580
I know people like to go on about Galipoli or South Africa or the Arab Uprising or Afghanistan or the Eastern Front or the Alps, especially with Battlefield One out.

But let's not pretend that the Western Front wasn't the centerpiece of WW1, as the place where the major powers of Europe were fighting each other directly, and that the other fronts in WW1 weren't opened up pretty much with the sole purpose of forcing a victory on the Western Front.

My prediction:
Ares is doing some shit
WW takes out Ares
Everyone continues fighting each other anyway
Ares tells WW that everyone was itching to kill each other anyway whether or not Ares was there, because muh Serbia muh Belgium muh Kaiserrreich
WW fucks off back home

She doesn't go back man

Also, I can feel that it's not Ares, but Duke of Deception or some other minor god related to Ares like Deimos

Or just regular guys trying to summon Ares or some shit

>a coming-of-age story

Doesn't really work when Gadot is like 30+ years old

and Wonder Woman would be like hundreds of years old

So what the fuck
>>
>>88759546
I guess they mean "she's discovering the outside world and that's like growing up" but that's not really coming of age

It's not the first time they said this.
>>
You know, I could get behind WW trying to intervene in WW1, maybe at some really horrendous battle in terrible conditions like Passchendaele or Verdun or the Kaiserschlacht.

But PG13 is entirely the wrong rating for trying to convey how depressingly shit it was to be in the middle of a major offensive in WW1.

Unless said person was the director or editor or someone close to them, they would not have had accest to a cut of the film, so they can't judge it.

Funny. Spider-Man Homecoming has also been promoted as a coming-of-age story.

Its Duke and Dr Poison. At best Ares will be mentioned. Which Im all for taking a break from Ares, but its fucking odd that you create a narrative around WWI and not have him/casted. And for your first Wonder Woman movie, I would have thought Cheetah and Giganta would have been better choices, Circe even more so
>>
>>88752809
And the fact that there wasn't any ''good guy'' in WWI, so you can't even romanticize it.
>>
>>88759797
David Thewlis (Lupin) is in the movie and nobody is saying who he's playing

So he's Ares, QED
>>
>>88759797
They chose Dr. Poison because of WWI, makes more sense then than any of those others

He could be, but he appeared in the cast photo wearing normal clothes. Maybe he's Steve's superior or something. So in that case Ares would be disguising himself.
>>
>>88759808
Well, early in the war itself they made a pretty good case for the Germans being the bad guys thanks to their large scale atrocities inflicted on the Belgians as they barged through on their way to France. We're talking premediated mass executions of civilians, looting, arson, the usual.
>>
>>88759930
And the only reason they all teamed up to go for Germany is because they thought it would be a 6 month skirmish and would give all of them some free territory.
All sides fought for their own benefit, no one did it because it was ''the right thing''.
>>
>>88759872
Well Pete is in high school, which is often when a person "comes of age" which is why many "coming of age" stories take place during in high school.
>>
>>88752996
And they're all shit without exception.
>>
>>88759876
I don't approve of Gal being WW, and I don't even like the DCEU.
But man, I would fuck her so much.
>>
>>88759966
They went for it because Germany had to preemtpively attack France, because they couldn't risk fighting both France and Russia at once, the latter of whom they had to fight because Russia was going to support Serbia, whom Austria was going to attack.

The British didn't even want to get involved at first, and may well not have if not for Belgian neutrality being violated because Germany had to defeat France before Russia could finish mobilizing.

Obviously everyone was planning to carve up places like the Ottoman Empire and the Austro Hungarian Empire for themselves after winning, never let a good war go to waste. But it was a little more complicated than "we want more land".
>>
>>88759840
True but then it circles back to why make it about WWI in the first place
>>
>>88759876
look like the last image from the shining
>>
>>88752482

Am I the only one who feels like the WWI setting is a tremendous cop-out?

Like, WW debuted in WWII. And in WWII, there was literally no moral ambiguity because the other side managed to top itself in sheer evil.

WWI's there to make it easier for Wondy to shake her head at the futility of war and the need for peace. Because if it was WWII and she was proposing peace with the Axis powers, she'd deserve five across the fucking face for being a stupid slut.

No, seriously - I would love to see her plead for the end of hostilities with the Nazis. That would make my day.
>>
>>88759488
It would be kind of dumb to blow your wad on Ares in the very first movie

Almost as dumb as blowing your wad on Darkseid in the first Justice League movie
>>
>>88760281
The whole, "Making her disillusioned with humanity," is so needlessly cynical and unnecessary anyway. It honestly makes WW look like a cynic who just gives up on humanity for 100 years and that's not WW.
>>
>>88760103
Yeah, but that was probably decided long before they decided to use Dr. Poison
>>
>>88760445
It's because they don't know how to make drama with Wonder Woman, so they came up with something that she would never do instead
>>
>>88760445

Also because the good guys won WWII. Being cynical and disillusioned about WWII would be really dumb. Wonder Woman, as written, would likely have led the charge into Berlin herself the moment she heard about the death camps.
>>
>>88760522
>the good guys won WWII.

it's always good to see that /pol/ hasn't taken over completely
>>
>>88760473
>so they came up with something that she would never do instead
Yeah, I don't see how STRAIGHT UP GIVING UP ON HUMANITY FOR A HUNDRED YEARS, is ever something that WW would ever do. Even for all the dark shit that we can do, she never saw the good in us? She never believed in people? She never fought the good fight, even when people might've needed her? What the fuck is that shit?

>>88760522
Speaking of, where the fuck was Diana during WWII? Would she not have fought the Nazis and tried to save everyone they murdered? What the fuck, Snyder? WB?
>>
>>88760575
I thought we didn't know for sure about the death camps until late in the war?
>>
>>88761417
Well, we didn't, but Diana is a goddamn superhero. If there's anyone who could go behind enemy lines, infiltrate, and seriously undermine the Nazi effort, it would've been her. She could've prevented millions of deaths.
>>
>>88760575
I suppose we're just going to see if they can sell that shit convincingly. Doubtful, if their previous movies are anything to go on.

>>88760575

Hey, man. Remember, in certain comics, specially Elseworlds, Wonder Woman is shown as an arrogant and careless goddess that despise humanity and see her and people like Superman as superiors that should simple take over.

So it's not the worse characterization for Wonder Woman.
>>
>>88752482
That sounds dope, but I know they're going to fuck it up.

I had better see someone's head explode if its going to be about the horrors of war.

DC won't have the balls to show horrors, they're only going to show the aftereffects, like destroyed towns. I'm willing to bet that it will have a scene in which Wondie will reassure a little girl who left her dollie behind in a house that got bombed.

At least you guys actually defeated Hitler. America's real military victory was against a third rate army like Japan, that was already falling apart since the oil embargo. Americas's inferiority complex led to dropping the bombs over Hiroshima and Nagasaki to show Stalin their new toy (inb4 killing hundred of thousands to save millions, fuck off Roscharch/Ozymandias) and America hasn't won a war since then.

It's like a trainwreck, like watching the Hindenburg go up in flames.

So how is /tv/ going to blame this on the MCU since I sincerely doubt anyone is going to defend it beyond the dubious claim of "Well, it was better than the Thor movies, hurrrrrr".

In that case, let's not pretend that the tommies and US troops aren't completely overrepresented in media about the western front.
When was the last time you saw ww1 french, portuguese, belgians soldiers in a proeminent role in a work of fiction? Or german/austro-hungarian protagonists? Or colonial troops?
Now compare it with the number of troops engaged. It's anglo cultural hegemony at it's finest.

Even battlefield 1 features primarily anglos.
