History Heartwarming / WonderWoman2017

** Less comedic, but when Diana angrily stands up in Parliament and chastises the generals present for making cowardly comprises and reducing men to numbers instead of fighting on the front lines with their warriors, a few of the old-men are visibly shaken with shame, showing that even ''they'' secretly long for a nobler, kinder age of honor. ([[FridgeBrilliance Perhaps because most of them are old enough to remember, or even to have fought in, wars that didn't end with millions dead and battles ending in stalemate for both sides.]])

** When the team returns back to No Man's Land, the entire battalion starts cheering loudly when they see Chief, clapping his back and shouting his name. Although Chief and his people lost practically everything in the Indian Wars and the genocide that went with it, it's nice to see that there are places where people accept him.

* After [[spoiler: Diana vanquishes Ares, the German soldiers, many who are just teenage conscripts hurriedly sent to the front, seem to wake up, not just from being unconscious, but from Ares' influence. It's just like Diana promised, that once the god of war was defeated, they went back to being good people. It's beautiful to see the relief on their faces, like a fog has been lifted and they can once again see the beauty of the world. Even more beautiful is how they start embracing each other, with some even hugging Steve's crew.]]

* [[spoiler:Somewhat FridgeBrilliance, but after Diana spent most of the film believing the sword is what is needed to kill Ares, it fails. Why? Because you can't fight war with war. It takes Diana's braces, which are ''defensive'' objects she typically uses to protect others with, absorbing his blow and projecting it back at him, after Diana had embraced love and compassion over anger. Tl;dr, its Diana's love and compassion that ends the God of War, not violence.]]

-->'''Chief''': ''[offering mugs]'' Let's get what we want.\\
'''Sameer''': Get what we need.\\
'''Steve''': And never get what we deserve.

** Even the [[https://www.comicbookmovie.com/wonder_woman/mcu-stars-congratulate-gal-gadot-and-patty-jenkins-on-wonder-woman-a151612 rest of the actors from the MCU]] congratulated everyone involved in the movie for its success. Considering the ugly Marvel VS. DC rivalry, it's good to know that the actors had rather not get themselves involved with that and gave the people on the other side a good pat on the back.

** The fact that Bruce [[spoiler: took the time and most likely no small expense to track down that original WWI era photograph, obtain it and have it delivered by nothing less than an armored courier to Diana]] can count as heartwarming.

*** Or [[https://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/11125/111252101/5426318-hqdefault+%281%29.jpg this picture]] puts it, the rivalry has mostly been a creation of the fans and people actually working for the companies have no hard feelings towards each other.

* The many, many, many parents thanking Gal Gadot for [[https://www.superheromovies.biz/new-blog/2017/6/8/a-letter-to-gal-gadot giving their daughters a female hero they can look up too.]]

** Earlier he tells her about his people being driven off their land and killed by white men, flat-out calling them "His (Steve's) people" but Chief clearly harbors no hatred or ill-will towards Steve or any other white man showing that he has learned to forgive for the past and live on for the future.
** When the team returns back to No Man's Land, the entire battalion starts cheering loudly when they see Chief, clapping his back and shouting his name. Although Chief and his people lost nearly everything in the Indian Wars and the genocide that went with it, it's nice to see that there are places where people accept him.

** It's brought back up shortly after, in an equally heartwarming way, when Charlie's the only one of the mercs who is hesitant to continue on. Not because of the lack of money, but because he thinks he doesn't have it in him any more to help how they need. Diana's response, with an incredibly sincere smile? "But who will sing for us?" Doubles with Moment of Funny with Steve's and Sameers [[OhCrap reaction.]]

* Diana protects Steve from a gunman in an alley by blocking a bullet, {{gender flip}}ping a similar scene from ''Film/{{Superman|The Movie}}''.

* Bizarrely, Ludendorff and Dr. Poison laughing together as they [[spoiler: murder the entire German high command]]. Doubles as NightmareFuel, of course, but it really sells their affection for each other.

** [[spoiler: The fact that in the end it is not Diana's anger and pain over Steves death that gives her the power to beat Ares but her love for Steve along with his memory and what he stood for that allows her to triumph. Her anguish over Steve awoke her power. Her love for Steve awoke her purpose.]]
* [[spoiler: During the celebration for the war finally ending Diana sees a picture of Steve as she touches it with tears in her eyes their is a look of sadness for the death of her lover but at the same time their is also look of pride with her expression saying ''thank you for showing and giving me hope again'']].

* Chief talks to Diana about how he only works for money and sees war as just a business venture. However, after the liberation of Veld, Diana sees people offering Chief money in reward but he refuses. She smiles as she realizes his mercenary image is just talk and he's a good man.
