If a Movie have its fault, it have its fault. So you can't shit on a shitty movie by pointing out its shittyness?

And this is from the OP:
I know some people on GAF don't read the OP, but it's always good to have proof. Maybe I should put pictures in...

Again that was random people. This is critics. Which is why you noticed that people who shat on the previous DCEU are raving here. The people who will write the reviews you are waiting for, are saying it's great. So....they'll change their minds in a few days?

We're getting overwhelmingly positive impressions from critics and y'all are still being shitty. Lord.

People seem to be confusing these reactions with fan reactions. The same people praising WW are the same people that were mixed or outright disliked the previous DCEU films.

I wonder if Snyder fans are going to like it if everyone else likes it.

Dont forget Zack Attack's story credit
Some will inevitably remark that WB Marvelized it (made it enjoyable).

I wish more people understood the difference between fans and critics in this thread. This is sounding like it's gonna be good, I'm officially excited for it.

From fans, not critics. These are the press reviews.
EDIT: Like, it even says it in the title?

Trailers looked good. I liked the other DC movies and generally only like the Marvel that are 100% comedy (Guardians, Ant Man) or barely have any jokes in them (Winter Soldier). I hope they didn't add suicide squad/Ultron levels of constant never ending joking. Even Lethal Weapon and Rush Hour have less jokes per second than some of these Marvel movies do and those sold themselves as Action Comedies.
Do people really walk out of stuff like Age of Ultron feeling inspired?

I'm more than keen on period piece superhero movies, so if the reviews come in strong I'm willing to give it a shot, even as the veritable opposite of a Wonder Woman fan.
I can't wait until

I mean we gotta wait for reviews proper, but critics saying this is imo a good sign.
I always felt something was different with this movie. Everything was too quiet. In a good way. With BvS and SS we were hearing from insiders and critics that both movies were a mess/went through some shit.
With this movie we heard none of that and still haven't. Not we are getting positive reception from critics.

They probably do, but they're not really reading. They're just seeing that these are tweets, and because they're tweets, that means they're bullshit.
They're just in a rush to call bullshit is all.

This is also a good point.
IGN and Slashfilm ain't the same as, say, Vulture & AV Club. Or Variety & THR. Or Chaw at Film Freak.

I can't tell the difference when its sites like buzzfeed and IGN.
The people I am waiting to write the reviews I am waiting for have not commented. We are talking about a number of reviews in the single digits here. This isn't a consensus and I don't have a lot of faith in outlets like Collider.

I think they know they have a crossover with an audience that's into 'geek' media.
Not to downplay these reactions. It's better than random twitter users.

I'm moving as fast as I can. Give me a sec.
Exactly. But I should say that I don't want to denigrate IGN, Slashfilm, etc etc. It's not as if their impressions are invalid, but they all fit within a pattern that has congealed at this point.
Definitely, I don't want to downplay their usefulness either.
Godspeed.

Waiting to see how I feel about it. I know it's a solid and good movie, but I'm hoping it's more than good. Lots of these critic impressions tend to read binary and hard to gauge.
But the third act talk is a shame. I feel like nearly every origin movie (and blockbusters in general) struggle with how to stick the landing, even the better ones like Batman Begins and Iron Man.
Happy that Gal and Pine are good and good together. The Steve Trevor relationship is a tricky one. Worst case was always Diana being into him because he's the first man she meets when he's actually really lame. But it reads like there's a respect and bond formed.

Nah man, WW theme is great

Fair point but Kate Erbland is not a puff reviewer at all and she was very positive about WW.
My expectations are "doesn't make me want to kill myself" so I think Wonder Woman is going to really impress me.
