Wonder Woman 1984: Discussion, Set Leaks & Spoilers #WW84

Altering his voice when in the armor probably would have also helped.

Yeah that could have helped. Even so, his voice was ok for the most part. Thewlis worked really well as an unassuming mortal disguise and he could still even have voiced the character. But they needed a bigger dude to wear full Ares costume and he should have not had his face visible through the helmet. Just two red eyes.

After seeing Cats earlier this year, I was worried about how Cheetah would turn out but she did not disappoint. I'm really excited for this movie!

Despite seemingly mostly positive reactions to her, I'm still seeing some unfavorable comparisons to CATS pop up. All I can say, after watching that bizarre trainwreck last night, they are far off the mark. Even if the CGI isn't perfect, she leaves that monstrosity in the dust.

At least she's supposed to be creepy and uncanny valley, but somehow cat Rebel Wilson and mice children are far more horrific.

Yeah, especially since they got pretty close in the exposition scene with Perez-like armor.

But at least they seem to be doing better with Cheetah, arguably the more important one to get right, from what's been seen.

I feel like the CGI third act fight is going to be the weakest part of the movie like in the first one, though Cheetah at least looks better than Ares from what I can see.

Why? There is nothing in the trailer to suggest the third act fight will be weak.

[WonderLight789]

I'm predicting this will be a "Frozen II" in that it's a sequel to a popular film that, while not widely hated, will generate a LOT of discussion due to the impact the first one made.

(Not that there aren't people who hate Frozen II, I just mean that opinions are all over the place with that film.)

So far i have seen more positive comments than bad ones about WW84.

This gives me a glimmer of hope that perhaps after seeing this movie, the general public(along with comic creators) will finally perceive Cheetah as a credible threat for Wonder Woman, Superman, & other DC powerhouses.

I'd hope so as well but the comics not doing much to follow up on the first movie's success leads me with low expectations on that front.

This does seem to be doing Cheetah the justice she's needed for years in media. They're also really emphasizing the rivalry between her and Diana, which helps sell the archenemy dynamic.

It suggests yet another CGI fight which makes it weak by default. I dislike CGI fights in general, especially when they take place at night for the obvious reason of making the CG look less noticable.

It doesn't suggest that based on what was shown. And cgi fights can be done in great ways too.

I wasn't sure I would like the "blonde" Cheetah look but it's actually pretty sexy. Still love the orange fur though....

Not a fan of this look, tbh. The face is too human, makes her look more like a vampire or a zombie. And where are the spots? I miss the red hair as well.

Yeah, that's true. After the first movie, I thought we'd see Dr. Poison given a major role in the comics and..........nothing.

CGI fights are almost entirely unavoidable with characters like this.

[VonHammersmark]

I like this look a lot but the scene is very dark and Cheetah blends with the background, you almost can’t even see her. It’s like she’s camouflaged which may or may not be by design, I'm leaning towards not. If they use the lights and the glowing lasso to good effect, it could look really cool though

I also hope Cheetah moves in bursts of speed, that seems like such an obvious thing to do. it’s a cheap and easy way to avoid shoddy CGI and makes all the sense in the world for Cheetah

She looks absolutely fierce to me, and her charging at Diana with Diana prepared for battle looks so iconic .
