Quick Review: Wonder Woman 1967

 Before we get to 1984, we need to take a quick stop along the way.  Specifically, the year 1967 where things are...interesting...

In 1967, a love-lorn Diana is living with her Mother...in the City.

I guess you can get tired of Paradise Island after long enough.
Wonder Woman has to go save the day, but her Mother insists that it is too dangerous...and she needs to eat.

Mothers, am I right?
She's also upset that Diana is single, which sure can't be a new argument when Steve died in 1919.
Finally, Diana quick-changes into her outfit and...wait- we have a Narrator.

I'm getting Adam West flashbacks here.

Anyhow, she changes to go save the day...before stopping to do the old Mirror Gag.
She flies off into action and...that's it.

Damn- I wanted to see live-action Egg-Fu!  Oh, you tease.

Well, this certainly lacks the thrills and grandeur of the last Film.  It's also way shorter, just barely hitting four and a half minutes.  On the plus side, Gal Gadot disappears into this role (as does her accent).


Oh and APRIL FOOLS!
