Nina Rogers is currently a senior at Brookline High School and has been on the Sagamore's staff since 2018. In her free time, Nina enjoys browsing at bookstores, over-sized hoodies and going to Bruins games. Nina is a proud Hufflepuff and if she could change one thing in the world, she would make it so that turning signals in cars would flash with the beat of whatever song is playing on the car radio.

Choosing between Disney Pixars Soul and Warner Bros Wonder Woman 1984 is more than simply choosing an animated or super hero movie. Even if animated movies arent youre go to, the fully realized characters and sentimental story of Soul is a far better choice than the dull, overly long disaster that is Wonder Woman 1984.

Which to watch: “Soul” vs. “Wonder Woman 1984”
