I've seen Wolverine: Origins and Green Lantern more than once and I can honestly say I wouldn't watch WW84 again.
There is so much wrong with it that anything redeemable about it is forgettable. The villain and villain's motivation is so convoluted and terrible. He's infinitely worse than Ares and Ares was the worst part of a generally solid first WW movie. The final "battle" is so bad it makes me mad. Chris Pine's involvement in the movie was unnecessary other than pointing out that things have changed since Word War I and 1984.
The first 10 minutes in the present (1984) feels like a Shazam comedy action scene instead of a badass Wonder Woman one. Then there's no action for the next hour.
Kristen Wiig wasn't terrible but Michelle Pfeiffer played the same character in 1992 and did a better job.
Maybe my hopes were too high for this movie. I didn't hate the part at the beginning with young Diana. That's about it.
Now I'm really worried about Jenkin's Star Wars movie.

I'm going to thank you for this, honest review. Too many people have been unwilling to be honest about the WW movies, so I respect you for doing so.
