If I had a nickel every time David Thewlis played a Greek god, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice

Y’know, if I had a nickel for every Greek mythology adaptation that makes Ares a Nazi, I’d have 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot but I don’t want these nickels.

Gal Gadot isn't a bad actress anymore than JK Rowling is a bad writer. Like it or not, she is the definitive Wonder Woman. Shut up, yes she is. You can meme "Kal-El, no" all you want, but it's very telling that you have to mock that one throwaway line in isolation. That's all you have, because she gave an earnest and nuanced performance in the 2017 film that still holds up as the gold standard for portrayals of the character. In the same vein as "he's not Batman if you can't imagine him comforting a frightened child," she's not Wonder Woman if you can't imagine her fawning over a baby. Gadot perfectly embodied the combination of stoic regalness and warm compassion that is Diana. It was one of those iconic portrayals of a comicbook character that stick in my head on an almost subconscious level. Every time I read a Wonder Woman comic, I always hear her voice. She is to Wonder Woman what Mark Hamill is to the Joker and what Kevin Conroy was to Batman.

It has not escaped my notice that the numerous Gal Gadot "bad acting" compilations never show clips from the first Wonder Woman movie. It's always the aforementioned "Kal-El, no" line from the clunky mess that was Justice Leage, a scene of her yelling through a windshield at Pedro Pascal in the panned Wonder Woman sequel, a silly line from Death on the Nile and, most recently, clips from the notoriously awful Snow White remake.

Is she really a bad actor if you have to nitpick three throwaway lines from two bad movies and one movie no one watched? I know you didn't watch Death on the Nile. That clip was in the trailer. Are we really back to blaming actresses when a movie is bad? Have we learned nothing from Kristen Stewart?

You don't have to like her or ever support a movie with her in it again, but it is childish and reactionary to retroactively decide everything a problematic person ever did was garbage, even if it was near-universally praised at the time. Bad politics =/= bad acting/writing. You liked Harry Potter when you were ten, and you liked Wonder Woman when you saw it in 2017. I remember your tumblr posts.

Also, I'm probably not supposed to say this, but her politics aren't even that bad. She seems to be a very centre liberal two state solution type, always acknowledging Palestinians in her appeals to peace. She only served the IDF in a civilian capacity as a fitness instructor and has condemned their killing of Palestinian civilians. Bare minimum, for sure, but the fact that she's even acknowledging that these atrocities have taken place is more than what most Zionist-leaning celebrities are doing. It certainly landed her in some hot water in Israel, where even the mildest criticism of the IDF is viewed as basically treason.

I obviously don't agree with her politics as a member of team river to the sea, but she is decidedly NOT calling for genocide. We need to know who the actual enemies are and not waste our time barking up the wrong trees. You aren't being woke by screaming about problematic celebrities. You are being distracted.

A bigger debate than real world politics.

The unsealed skies (1)

Warnings: canon typical mentions of injury and blood, and mentions of an arranged marriage.

“I’m losing her!” Olivia cried out as she pressed down on the teen’s chest and maintained pressure on the wound.

“If I do this, he’ll find me.” You thought but you couldn’t tear your eyes away from the injured girl. She needed help.

Making up your mind, you stepped over to Olivia.

“(Name)? Wh-”

You stretched out your fingers and rested your palm on the girl’s chest, “Liv, grab her and get ready to run.”

“Not until you tell me what’s going on.”

“Years ago I ran from an arranged marriage. I ran and I hid. The idea behind the marriage was to unite two families that had an interest in the north and the south of Europe. What I’m about to do will make me visible again and I can’t outrun him forever.”

“We can protect you!” Olivia argued.

“Not from him. Grab her and run. Stay as close to that courthouse as you possibly can.”

With that, you pressed your palm onto the girl’s chest. A bright glow enveloped her form and her flesh knit itself back together. She stirred and smiled as she regained consciousness.

“Liv, go!” You commanded as the clear skies suddenly became cloudy and you heard arguments breaking out.

You backed away from the two of them and your friend tried to protest but you shook your head. She bit her lip and looped one of the girl’s arms over her shoulders.

“I better see you again.”

She finally listened and ran with the girl towards the unattended courthouse. Metal objects tore themselves apart and small fires erupted on the ground. Lightning flashed across the sky, casting an ominous light.

“And people said his father was the dramatic one.”

Another bolt of lightning split the sky and when the light died down, you came face to face with your past.

“After all these years of searching I’ve finally found you, my dear.”

“It’s only taken you two hundred years Ares.”
