I think you're using the term 'Great' rather liberally.

The original Wonder Woman can be summed up thusly:

The DCEU had kept feeding its fans and theatre-goers S**t Sandwiches over and over and over again and then Wonder Woman comes out and its like getting a McDonald's Cheeseburger.

Sure, its going to sit in your stomach like a lump of iron, but it still tasted better going down than the crap you got before.

It was 'just okay' which for DC at the time was a Home Run! WW84's chances of Box Office 'just okay' was exclusively tied to riding its predecessor's coat-tails.

Because standing alone, WW84 was a gigantic turd of a film. Regardless of how hard it WISHED it wasnt!

What was that guy's name even? Wish-Wizard? Wish-Master? God that was stupid. I'd bet Pedro Pascal wakes up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night remembering that.

WW84 is the movie you put on in the background when you're scrubbing your toilet.
