So I picked this up in the five dollar bin earlier. Bout halfway in and surprised by how good it is. Good animation, solid voicework, nice updating on the origin and grounding in Greek myth. All around fun.
Also surprisingly violent, which I didn't expect.
If ya haven't seen it, I'd recommend a watch.

It's a shame that it didn't do so well, because I think this should be the basis on how a Wonder Woman movie should be done.
If it were live action it'd probably be praised up the wazoo.
As it is, the lack of its success is what prevents a sequel.

I thought it was okay. Had things I liked, had things I didn't. Though I do wish it had done better entirely because it failing - which is probably because DC marketed the thing for months before it came out, but didn't actually do so at all once it finally did - caused them to panic and cancel Judas Contract which would've been badass.

I love the Wonder Woman animated movie. It's so freakin' good. When I watch it, I actually get a little pissed off when it's over, because there won't be a sequel or a spin-off animated series.

I enjoyed it, and I really wish that Wonder Woman was more popular with people, because there's quite a few of her stories that I'd have loved to see get animated. The fight with Medusa from the Rucka era could have been amazing, but it'll probably never happen unless the movie and/or the Amazon TV show draw really good numbers and put a little more faith back into the character.
That atrocious failed TV series didn't do her any favors, either.

Something about it annoyed me greatly when I watched it, but for the life of me I cannot remember what that would be now.....
It did give us Lucy Lawless as WW, though - sadly not live action, but someone paid attention at least.

She wasn't in this one though. This was Keri Russell.

Like the crowd, I also liked it and wish it did better. I can't think of much more to say.
