Who is in it?

Gal Gadot - Diana

Favorite Scene:

The final scene. EVERYTHING about the final scene - I won't give away the movie.

Favorite Quote:

"What one does with the truth is more difficult than you think. I learnt this the hard way, a long, long time ago. And now, my life will never be the same..."

Review:

Wonder Woman is so, so awesome! So epic! Just everything about this film was utterly fantastic.

First and foremost, the message is awesome. The empowerment of women, and also the subtle lines throughout the movie to bring to light various forms of oppression, and at times, revealing how ridiculous they are, was awesome.

Then of course, there is the plot and the entire visual that was this film. From Wonder Woman's fight scenes, to the twirling camera angles, to the authenticity of the film's setting from the past - all of it was fantastic.

And yes, there is Gal Gadot who graduated from Fast and Furious underling to mega star in this one film. By the way, Chris Pine was fantastic in this as well.

All in all, if you're into super heroes, check this out. If not, still do. How can you not?

Grade: 5/5

WWE Wrestlemania XL Review: "I absolutely loved this Wrestlemania"

It's easy to get caught up and become a prisoner of the moment. Especially in today's world where the latest moment is ostracized, super-analyzed, and hyperbolized - it's very much the clickbait, social media, microwave society we live in. Yet, even after acknowledging that (as well as my Tribal Chief, of course), I still come to this feeling that Wrestlemania XL is one of the best Wrestlemania's, ever. Yes, ever! I don't need Triple H's metrics and benchmarks to influence me. No, no, no! In terms of hype, storylines, payoffs, match quality, and just overall fun - this entire weekend was amazing. I'm slightly skewed in my preference as well. This was my son's first Wrestlemania as a pro wrestling fan. Having him at my side cheering on his favorites, getting caught up in the drama, and even crying at the end of the night because his Tribal Chief lost to "that no good Cody" added to the overall appreciation of the event. So yeah, I have some

DP Review of the Alternate Knicks Orange Jersey

One of the good aspects about having a blog and being truthful and honest about it, is the hindsight thought process it provides. DP devotees already know how much I love my New York Knicks, and how excited I was about their new jerseys last year. It was a new look that was desperately needed ( DP Review On Knicks New Uniforms ). In reviewing those jerseys last year, I had the following comments in regards to then-rumors regarding the addition of an alternative orange jersey for the Knicks and overall NBA changes to the Christmas Day special jerseys: "As long as we do not add an "alternative jersey" (I read rumors of an orange one - woof!) (and the league-wide Spanish jerseys are fine). And please, please - PLEASE - let's finally do away with the awful green jerseys we feel the need to wear on Christmas and St. Patrick's day! Pretty please!"
