Episode 21: "Wonder Woman 1984" Review and its MENA Issues - a podcast by Hard NOC Media

We are joined by the wonderful Hanna Flint to discuss Wonder Woman 1984 in this special bonus episode! We discuss the various ups and downs of the film, how well we thought the actors did with the script and story they had, and whether this movie did Diana Prince/Wonder Woman justice. We also discuss the racist and Orientalist aspects of its depiction of Egypt and Egyptian people, and how detrimental it is for MENA representation. There's a LOT to discuss, and we go through it all. Enjoy listening!

 

Spoilers for Wonder Woman 1984 begin around 11:26.
