Wonder Woman 1984 may have been a critical failure due to a generally messy plot that left audiences scratching their heads, but there is still a lot to love that viewers may be a little too eager to ignore. Its 1980s setting aside, the tone was a throwback to a more innocent time. And while there were several questionable plot points, the story still represented a cheesy time in superhero films that could have paved a new road for the DC Extended Universe that launched with Zack Snyder's Man of Steel and could still provide some inspiration for James Gunn's rebooted DC Universe.
