Welcome everyone to an all new episode of Some Like It Scott! On this week's NYE episode, the two Scotts review not one, but two(!) Christmas Day releases from this year. First, the duo runs WONDER WOMAN 1984 under the microscope to determine if the Patty Jenkins-directed, Gal Gadot-led follow-up to the 2017 DCEU film is worth 2.5hrs of your time, and after making that judgement, they switch their attention to Pixar's latest outing, SOUL, to see if Pete Docter can build off his last successful outing in 2015 (INSIDE OUT). See time codes below:
3:13 - Wonder Woman 1984
49:40 - Soul
