I seem to recall Chris Pine exploding in the previous movie, and if he miraculously survived he looks awfully good for a man who, in 1984, would be about a hundred years old.
So I suppose they have some wank as to how he’s back and looks distinctly not one hundred years old and unexploded, and once again heroism doesn’t mean anything in a comic book universe because you can just come back to life.
WW was okay and this one might be too.
Comic book Steve Trevor is nearly tied with Jean Gray in the number of times he’s died and come back to life. They’re just being true to the canon! 
Max Lord does say “Now, I take what I want in return” so I’m assuming he resurrects Trevor for some nefarious reason or other. Probably with that crystal, which is no doubt somehow tied in to Darkseid in some dumb fashion.
Or fake Trevor (shape-shifting, mind control, illusion, etc) is a possibility, I suppose.
Is Steve a vision caused by whatever it is that Maxwell Lord is ‘selling’? I was hoping for a quick shot of Cheetah but I guess that will have to wait. I really wonder if she is going to be in a costume of if they will go full furry.
Didn’t we already do the 84’ retro mall thing with Stranger Things?
I’m happy they’re revealing right away that Trevor is back rather than teasing it. I’m guessing once Max is defeated Trevor will disappear/die.
I watched it three times last night, just for the music.
Well, the music, and Wonder Woman swinging from fucking lightning bolts.
I think they had to go with the action scenes to make it pop with audiences.
But what made the first movie a level above more superhero fare was that the best action sequence (the no man’s land scene) had some depth in the motivation and symbolism. I hope it will stay in that direction, but it’s hard to get that sort of thing across in a trailer.
Not the most interesting trailer and why bring back Chris Pine?
I’m not sure I’ll go see this at the movies, I’ll wait on word of mouth.
Somehow I missed the last 1,982 sequels. Will the story even make sense to me?
This is Wonder Woman, not Jaws or Rocky. You don’t need to see the prior movies.
Depends.
I saw The Madness of King George III without seeing the first two, and that made sense.
But Leonard Part 6 made no sense at all.
And X-Men Apocalypse before that.
And The Watchmen before that.
I came of age in the 80s, and I think the decade has been done to death in films/TV, but I’m cautiously optimistic about this movie.
:Gen X high five:
I’m looking forward to this. I liked (didn’t love) the first one. The sequel looks like more fun.
And DC may have finally figured out that you can use light and colors in a movie.
This is my premature guess. Heart-breaking third act. Angry WW kicking ass, etc.
Amazing what can happen when Zack Snyder isn’t involved.
Cautiously optimistic.
In the Lynda Carter version, Steve Trevor has a son who looked exactly like him.
This is comic books. None of that stuff matters.
I like the trailer. It’s promising.
My theory is that it’s really Steve, resurrected somehow by that big glowy crystal thing Max “Also the Mandalorian” Lord is shown gloating over. Lord uses it to do all sorts of bad stuff, which Diana will only be able to reverse by destroying the crystal - which will also kill Steve again.
