Wonder Woman 1984 is two and half hours long and so far the only things I’ve really enjoyed about it are Kristen Wiig’s studded leather jacket and the fact that Adam Klaus from Jonathan Creek has a bit part. The plot is moronic, the script is crap, and it’s dull. Total garbage.

Imagine assuming you can buy a woman’s Instagram account simply because you’re a man and you want it for yourself. Astounding.

Weather report: sunny but absolutely pissing freezing. Floor is a death trap. Wish I hadn’t bothered. But look how pretty she is.
