Except that he does, and his opinions are deeply outdated and belong back in the 1950s. If Sidney Poitier debuted today the Drinker would rip into him. What opinions are deeply outdated? That movies should go for quality over messaging? Careful. This dude loves to move the goal posts or make excuses when his arguments are refuted. He also thinks the current Marvel phase is best. So he's most likely a troll

His opinions that women leads are bad, nonwhites showing up in outdated white male supremacy series is a bad thing and that women should be oversexed constantly.

So an Outrage Culture video from a guy who trashes on anything with women unless they're oversexed and underwritten... ...Why am I not surprised? Actually most of his complains about movies with female leads because the women are poorly written. You won't seem him criticize Ellen Ripley in Aliens and she was never oversexed. That's because he knows criticizing Ripley is suicide.
She's everything he hates about women in movies though.

Well I think it's a pretty good movie that's being unfairly panned. There is no MESSAGE about strong female empowerment. The only subliminal message that I got was about deceit. The ruling class of that country for the past 300 years have been lying to the dragon and the people. The female protagonist was put in a situation where she had to grow to survive.

There is a profound arrogance about it though...that HER growth was the axis around which the entire world moved for and was static without. That's not a story meaningful to humanity in any way, but it certainly recognizes the astronomically self-absorbed.

They don't think the woke crap gets old after awhile, too?
While I have little tolerance for heavy-handed messages in film... and I do like The Critical Drinker... He does have a tendency to see "wokeness" where there really is none... and then harps on it.

It may not all be woke..........but I've certainly been seeing the narrative push and propaganda in media for a few decades now.

And there is a little bit of that in this film... She does kinda pull being good with a sword out of her ass... I mean, she might always have been... but the film doesn't really establish that prior to when she does it.
