I just read the vulture review and now I have to go peel all of my skin off. Excuse me.

I think “mouthiness” is probably the place to start.
I’m sorry... Bitch used “mouthiness” in his review? Of goddamn Wonder Woman? I think I’m going to need more pitchforks.
I was also taken aback by that. I can’t believe they kept that bit. And the whole part where he described the line on her forehead and her pausing in the middle of a speech felt incredibly condescending. Like he was about to pat Gal on the head and go “good girl, look at how good your English is!” Ugh.
All his lines were creepy semi-sexual & dumb as fuck. Women come in different breeds you know?
And as usual, is an old white guy who wrote it.
I don’t recall if it was in the remade Clash of the Titans or Wrath of Titans, but Zeus transforms himself into a bald eagle, which is endemic to North America. You know, like any ancient Greek God would do.
Hera bless this post, for it is sacred and the world does not deserve it.
Seriously, what the hell did I just read?
omg, that “different breed” comment - I literally gasped. what the everloving fuck, dude?
Just read the Vulture piece. Final Summation: No one cares about your boner, bro.
Note the Vulture reviewer’s other review :

Fuck yes! Thank you. I normally love Vulture but Edelstein has to take several seats and probably find another career since he didn’t review the movie so much as complain about Patty, lust over Gal, and other women (we Israeli women are a “different breed” are we?). It was awful. He should be ashamed. And he even…
Jfc. Superman, the superhero who spent a solid 70 years fighting for “truth, justice, and the American way” is an undocumented alien who’s not even from this planet, but somehow no one gives him a hard time about not being “American.” Correctly.
The New York Post also thought it was necessary to write a whole piece about how this Amazon from Themyscira is less American than ever, which I’m afraid is going to not get nearly enough attention while everybody rushes to pat themselves on the back for finally liking a DC movie. She may be 1,000 years old. She may…
You really have to click through to appreciate the majesty of this take down.
No one in Themyscira cares about your boner.
lol
Finally, some ethical journalism.
