Or he actually likes well written women in movies Nope, Ripley is everything he criticizes about women in other movies. He'd rip Alien apart if it came out today and say it was badly written Well your hypothetical is just that. Hypothetical. There is no indication that he would hate movies like Alien or Aliens because of Ripley. |

Sure he did. He did a whole video about women not being more scantily clad Which video was that? The one where the thumbnail is Black Widow with extreme cleavage showing. |

Nope, he was against turning women in the movies into male archetypes. If he did what you said he did, you must have dozens of comments he made in that one video about how women need to be more scantily clad. Let's hear them. |

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. So you're mad a main character was a main character. No. I'm unimpressed with a main character that does not contend with the world so much as the world must contend with them. That's a celebration of narcissism and best relates to people with an affinity for narcissism. Particularly when that supremacy comes with zero accountability or responsibility. Even Moses carried the weight of the world and the destiny of an entire people on his shoulders when legends hold him parting the Red Sea. Even Shane paid a worthy yet terrible price for good to prevail over the land. |

Oh, so he's mad when women aren't useless shrieking damsels. Figures. |

Hate is a strong word, but I will most certainly not typically have any praise for the character arcs in those films either. And I most certainly would not argue their characterizations assert important social messages or represent an individual social ideal or quality. But I'm not so uptight as to "hate" a stupid fun gratuitous action film. Thats pretty much all those are. And anyone trying to get deeply philosophical or meaningful about them is someone who has time, literally, to waste. Which is okay too, just...don't pretend it's a bigger thing than that. That's all. |
