‘Wonder Woman 1984’ is the sequel to ‘Wonder Woman’, DCEU’s most loved and only female superhero-led movie. ‘WW 1984’ was expected to bring Christmas cheers at last, after the exhausting year, as it was releasing in the Christmas season.
‘WW 1984’ and Christopher Nolan’s ‘Tenet’ were the two movies expected to remind people that cinemas do still exist and are still, in the true sense, a reason for celebration. Turns out, both the movies failed to do so.
While the higher expectations and burden of performing in empty theatres can be blamed, to an extent, the movies themselves still failed the die-hard fans.
While Warner Bros. was being termed as brave to go ahead with ‘WW 1984’s’ release, even as Marvel kept pushing ‘Black Widow‘, the tables have now turned. And, surprisingly, a total off the chart’s competitor is being rewarded by the fans.
