It's not about 'deserve' it's about what you believe. And I believe in Love.

It could just be a publicity stunt for DC, but it would be amazing if they could even secure a nomination. They don't even necessarily have to win. Just the bragging rights of being nominated would be amazing hype for this franchise!

So only homely overweight women are allowed to be feminists? Originally Posted by Vanguard-01

That's definitely the impression I got from the women in that video. Other online "feminists" too. Originally Posted by Osiris-Rex

Or that one Rotten Tomatoes reviewer who criticized the movie based entirely on the fact that Wonder Gal was a beautiful Caucasian woman and not fat/black/gay/puffer fish/whatever? Originally Posted by brettc1

There seems to be a very strong push to say that if you are a woman who is generally considered attractive physically you cannot be intelligent and/or represent other women. Originally Posted by Vanguard-01

LOL
Meanwhile, in order to illustrate the MASSIVE scope of Wonder Woman's success.
On day 57 of it's run, BVS earned $82,871.
On the same of day Wonder Woman's run [last Friday] it earned...
$985,000
About 12 times as much!

WW didn't start out with the strongest opening weekend, but ever since the beginning of her second week, she's beaten the other movies every day. Azzarello's Orion was prophetic, this woman has good legs! She just keeps going. Going to make a ton of money when the dvd/blue ray comes out, too.

Even Suicide Squad was crushing Batman v Superman by then. And BvS was pulled after week 12 while MoS and SS played out a couple weeks more.
It seems pretty obvious that despite its defenders, BvS wasn't very well liked by the general public. After the first week or two people had seen enough.

I love the Ultimate Cut. I can't believe they didn't release the full cut in theaters. That was the mistake. Originally Posted by Osiris-Rex
