Feminist trend


Lately Hollywood is focusing on adding female roles on franchises that did not had them before. For example "Mad Max: Fury Road", I did enjoy the movie, but It felt like it was more about 'Furiosa' than it was about 'Max'.
In this Hitman reboot, 'Katia van Dees' is shown as superior to Agent 47, I don't recall any character like that in the Games.

Not that there's anything wrong with portraying empowered woman, but make original movies for that, like 'Kill Bill' or 'Tomb Raider'.
Don't ruin the image of the protagonist or the origin story.

How would it feel, if they reboot "Alien" with a male lead, and make Ripley's character a more dismal supporting one?

Well you know, considering the fact that movies are still overrun with male characters all the time, and women are always ignored or left in the background. I see absolutely NO problem with it at all. This is still a misogynist world where people don't like the idea of women being lead characters in films. Men still control the film industry to a large extent so adding more female characters to films will definitely not "ruin" anything. Especially since men are the privileged sex. Women are still not seen as equals for crying out loud. So MORE female characters please! I would especially love to see more films where female characters interact with each other more and work together.

"Oh noes! I have to watch female characters do more than get kidnapped and rescued. My masculinity is ruined!"

i find it funny that feminists still need the help of men even though they put them down and say they can be independant of them stupid bitches

You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Don't you mean "girl"? Throughout the film they referred to Katia as a "girl". Not once did anybody call her a woman. It was really annoying. Was she supposed to be portrayed by a younger actress, or was the writer a complete misogynist? Somebody in their late 20's, or early thirties is not a "girl".

Just think of how weird it would be if they referred to the hitman as "The boy" during the film.

Chthonic gods have set their sights on making me a slave to their ways.
