Huh? I didn't understand your reply, sorry. Bad looking - are you talking physicality? They're making women look evil yet applauding these evil characteristics, that's what I meant that they look bad. It has nothing to do with their physical looks. Look at Ellen Ripley and how she is depicted in Alien and compare that character to Rosamund Pike in I Care A Lot. The former shows a strong logical woman who has to face adversity and survive against all odds, she is likable, presented as a teamworker, a good subordinate but an even better leader. Someone who unlike the rest of her shipmates, was the most logical of them all. The latter shows a despicable evil woman who preyed on the weak and uses her gender to justify her evil deeds against the elderly and a son trying to rescue his mother yet is shown as the protagonist that's cool and admirable by the woke nazis.
The main character here is also unlikable, uncharismatic, a karen looking to destroy anyone along her path, this is the protagonist of this show?
You want to show a villain in a good light? You have to make people care for them, you need a charismatic character, someone who despite their villainy shows a vulnerability and some good moral characteristics about them. Woke cinema don't have that because they see good in evil, you can see it in their history, kkk, pro apartheid, pro abortion, pro slavery, pro segregation, pro communism, pro nazi germany, pro pedophilia, pro anarchy, etc.
Women in their 30s? I'm talking about films from the 1930s that had strong women characters. The 1960s introduced the sexualization of women as objects in cinema and today makes women look just plain evil - yet both had its adherents, feminists, applauding this portrayal because they spearheaded it.

That's something I don't see. I see an adolescent girl making some development.
And - OMG - you mentioned
I care a lot. I don't see Rosamund Pike as the heroine there. It is more a caricature of a modern, woke, strong woman. And thinking this way I survived the movie. I bet Miss Pike enjoyed making this movie a lot, using her looks to create someone really evil, someone you don't want to meet in real life.

Great posts but you’re arguing with someone who has limited reading comprehension skills. Hooked on Phonics doesn’t work for everyone!
