Guardians of the Galaxy, Wonder Woman, and Feminist Icon

After being behind for a while, we finally catch up on our favorite nerd movies. Vy gives us a review of Guardians of the Galaxy and we discuss the success of the series in comparison to other Marvel movies. We talk about the future of superhero movies in general before moving on to Wonder Woman. Diz gives us a review of Wonder Woman and then we talk about the controversies surrounding her. We discuss the “Women-only” showing and the movie being banned in Lebanon because of Gal Gadot. We talk about the different streams of feminism and the difficulties of making Gal Gadot a feminist icon. We end by giving our respects to the victims on Portland, Manchester, London, Baghdad, Kabul, and Herat.
