.....in a PC obsessed world?

First of all the depiction of bad guys would be heavily sanitized. Next, Helen would be pro killer with guns the moment she touches it :cough:Force Awakens:cough:.

Yup, you know that hilarious scene where she fumbles and drops the sub-machine gun killing everyone by accident.....would be totally different....she would be blasting everyone away with precision like her husband....cause they need to be equal regardless of their background or experience.

This will be the only comment or reply you'll get. Like I give a crap about YOUR interwebz opinion.

It couldn't work.

Just show this movie to the PC folks, they claim its misogynistic.

Apparently every single mother is forced into the role through evil patriachs, they don't actually want to raise their kids, every woman should want a career damnit!

Things will come around again, they always do, people get sick of the wimps.

Why can't women have a career and also want a family? Those desires are not mutually exclusive, you know.

I'd think the wimps are people who want everything categorized into historically labeled boxes without wanting to change things up when a subpopulation in the world wants change.
