Film in 2017: DCeased

#45; Wonder Woman (2009) & #38; Green Lantern





A modern man's trespass of the island of the Amazons enables an imprisoned war god to escape and Princess Diana wins the responsibility to recapture him.

There's a section in this movie which is so awkwardly animated that it's hilarious. She and Steve Trevor are fighting in an alleyway and, in two frames, she lifts up her leg and nails the person in the chest.

Other than that, the entire movie is spent gaslighting Diana. When Trevor tries to get her drunk, he's stymied that he can't - Diana knows about people's bullshit, it happens to her, so basically she's proven right every time. And yet, she's supposed to be seen as narrowminded and looking down on humanity when the one person she's constantly in the company of is a grade-a skeeve.

Reckless test pilot Hal Jordan is granted an alien ring that bestows him with otherworldly powers that inducts him into an intergalactic police force, the Green Lantern Corps.

Taika Waititi is in this movie. That's all I remember, besides the CGI looking odd, but not totally hating it. 

If you haven't seen the Cartoon Network CGI Green Lantern Cartoon, you should.
