Never forget: NOBODY had a problem with "Ellen Ripley" taking the lead in "Alien". And we're talking 1979, here. And then again in "Aliens" in 1986. She was badass, and everyone loved the character. Why? Because she wasn't there to make men look stupid and inept. She was surrounded by brave, competent characters, and fought bravely WITH them. "Ripley" is the character feminists need, but don't deserve.

The joke has it that in order to write believable female characters the male writer takes a man and removes all reason and accountability. 😉 Seriously though, we now have a generation of writers with no life experience other then what they have learned in college AND that they have to adhere to THE RULES. As in no woman can be mentored by a man, lose to a man, be weaker then a man, be outsmarted by a man. When you lack life experience and are constrained by such stupid rules, your character building will be horrible.

Fun fact: one of the best comic book writers for decades was Chris Claremont, and he's best known for his legendary run on Uncanny X-Men, New Mutants, and lots of other stuff. He wrote truly unforgettable stories involving female heroes like Storm, Kitty 'Shadowcat' Pryde, Danielle Moonstar, Xi'an Coy Manh, Rhane Sinclair, Illyana Rasputin, Betsy Braddock...basically it's a DAMN long list! He knew how to give each of those ladies a distinctive voice, and I'm pretty sure his favorite was Kitty, who was basically your ordinary Jewish-American Midwestern girl next door who happened to have the power to phase through solid matter. Dammit, I miss the days when female heroes were written by people who had imagination!

Honestly, facing foes far more powerful than themselves is what makes them awesome strong female characters. In the real world, many of the opponents women face (at least physically) are men, who are far stronger than women so we have to find other ways to beat them other than brute strength. These characters have to be resourceful and can’t punch their way through the problem which is what makes their victories so impactful and inspiring, and what makes them role models for so many women

@@taylorelliott8824 there's an adage in storytelling that a hero is only as good as his villain, and the same is obviously true of heroines. But I'd like to add that a heroic figure is also only as good as their weaknesses. There can be no courage without fear. We cheered when the Millennium Falcon dropped cover fire for Luke on his attack run because Han Solo overcame his egocentric self serving nature to step up and be the hero. We cheered when Clark Kent laid out the bully truck driver because a moment of pettiness made an otherwise altruistic paragon of virtue and strength infinitely more relatable. I seem to hold the minority view here, but the selfishness of wanting her loved one so badly that she was willing to disregard the fact that a presumably innocent man would be stripped of his future in Wonder Woman 1984 made Diana seem far more human. Giving him up and sacrificing her own happiness to save others is what made her a heroine to be admired and celebrated.

The clowns of woketown think they can achieve the same "victory" spectacle by injecting a forced superficial power disparity. Unsurprising, coming from a crowd that only ever concerns themselves with the ends and not the means, and completely loses the plot.

It is a natural outgrowth of applying THE RULES (ominous Critical Drinker voice) to writing Jen's character. And the rules, as formulated by the woke Roddenberry foundation, state when you write a female character no man can mentor a woman, no man can be stronger then a woman, no man can defeat a woman, no man can outsmart a woman, and another one I can't remember. Constrained by such rules that's how you get female characters like Jen. Or when you have a story where you have a male hero vs a female villain, you know she's going to defeat herself. (cough Dr. Strange 2, Star Wars Kenobi, cough). Woke story telling is horrible and predictable.

That has little to do with anything. For one thing, the entire HISTORY of cinema has been to make men seem strong by making women seem weak. Thats the whole damsel in distress thing thats been in about 75% of ALL movies. Women 'need to be saved'. When its reversed in a FEW cases then suddenly people lose their shit and its oh my god this is politics. The entire HISTORY of cinema is political. People liked the first wonder woman because she was properly girly and deferential to a human male who was a million times weaker, but who still saves at the end. The MAIN difference with Captain Marvel and other Marvel heroes is that the story was plot driven, not character driven. If you took out maybe four scenes and replaced them with a man, the character would be identical. It was obviously a corporate choice not to spend three quarters of the movie leading up to her powers, oh wait, they DID do that. People have no trouble accepting Superman or Black Adam as just inherently strong, but when CM came along SOME poeple lost it, it still made more money than most marvel movies after it.

I'm not even going to bother with She Hulk because Disney now days is incapable of puking out anything good anymore. The older stuff with female leads, as you said, were WAY better.

The animated Mulan was a great character because she had many flaws, she didn't fit as a typical female and neither she could be a true man because that's not her! She had little chance to succeed in warfare but she didn't care as long as she succeed in saving her father! She becomes stronger by being herself, embracing her strength: she is smart, creative, she is persistent, brave and seeing she doesn't need to be the perfect daughter society says she must be and also embracing the fact that she is not a man makes her having to rely on herself and finding her best self! And that is powerful! She isn't special, she isn't the best choice for the job, but she will do her best at that job and in the end, she succeeds because she was being herself!Working hard, being smart and creative. The message was simple and powerful: you don't need to be special, you don't even have to be like others to be great, you can be great being your best self, and being your best self is enough! And then 2020 Mulan came in and was like "yeah, if you weren't born special, you will never be anything. Screw hard work" 😒

Just my take on character development. The point of a story is to show people an example of an imperfect human who manages to achieve a goal regardless of the inherent weaknesses of that human. Traditionally, this has been men in these rolls. So they are relatable to men who grow being told that they must achieve success in order to be considered a valuable contributor to society. Even though the story has the hero (in this case) taking on some Herculean challenge, men can relate to the man because we all have our own challenges in life and like the hero we have to improve ourselves in order to accomplish the task. But the women being portrayed in these movies are self inserts of the female driven writing team. They are too focused on themselves. Their lives are full of conflict because they are angry about everything. Take She Hulk for example. She doesn't want to save the world. Wants nothing to do with it. Yet is angry that her position in life has her answering to men in her professional world. Her lack of responsibility keeps her from seeking positions of authority within a business. She wants the job title but not the responsibility.

I liked women who are strong but not at the expense of her femininity. It's not a bad thing, being female. The reason I love the character of Wonder Woman, is that she has heart. She is strong and as capable as any man, but she doesn't have to ridicule or humiliate men to be awesome. She just is. If the only way you can prove to yourself that you are strong or worthy is to stomp on everyone around you, then you are neither strong nor worthy. I hate these woke, feministic movies and TV shows.

Even though most movies today are better than most movies from the 90's or 80's or 70's I would pick a movie from those older years more than today because of 1 thing, character(not the characters in the movies but, well i hope you know what I mean). Sarah Conners had character, so did Ripley and many other female leads back in the days, not because they were women but because they were great characters who had struggles and and flaws, they were strong but also weak. Men back then the same. Now if its supposed to be a "strong" female lead, she is the "strong" one while the men are weak and pathetic and stupid. One example of that would be Chris Hemsworth character in Ghostbuster 2016, you wonder how he survived that long, only to be the sex object of those female characters, while Annie Potts character in the 1984 Ghostbusters wasnt, she wasnt the insanely stupid but hot female sex object, she was a not so good looking woman who had character, she had spunk, and she went hamm on Bill Murreys character, which I enjoyed a lot.

Princess Leia is unironicly one of my favorite characters in Star Wars. She’s kind, compassionate, and in many ways symbolizes everything the Rebellion stands for. However, she’s also brave, daring, and she isn’t afraid to shoot her way out of a tough situation. I love how her personality is quite opposite to what people generally think of princesses and damsels in destress. Though no longer canon, she did some incredible things in Legends too. She such an inspiring character, and in many ways reflects Anakin. While Luke’s personality traits reflects Padme. Carrie Fisher played many roles, but she was the perfect choice for Leia Organa, a character whom at times, had an attitude. Whether it was arguing with Han, or undermining an Imperial.

Leia got her father's boldness and her mother's ability to inspire people. Luke got his father's power and his mother's kind personality.

Carrie Fisher--incredibly likeable,very intelligent,superb comic timing and a great actress,when she was alive you could say Hollywood still contains some talent,now they're just a 3rd rate sideshow with money which, on the face of it, they appear to be shovelling into a furnace with the boiler remaining cold,they've run out of talent and sooner or later will run out of cash,someone said 'insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result each time',anyway Carrie,you were too good for this shitshow R.I.P.

Leia argued with Han and even insulted him at times, but she didn't demean, devalue, or disregard him. Today's heroines could take a lesson from that.

Leia was as much like her father as she was her mother. She was as daring and brave as her mother, but just as willing to disregard the rules and get things done, regardless of the consequences, as her father.

"Saving people are for narcissists, billionaires, and adult orphans” God, the absolute callousness in that statement. Not only does she diss superheroes but also police, firefighters, and doctors. Then, she blows off being an orphan like it's a lifestyle choice.

Yeah… so many of the “witticisms” in she hulk make it obvious that the writers haven’t even bothered watching the marvel movies. Banner has been through so much trauma to be where he is, that to berate that experience is detestable behavior. Especially from someone who is family, and that she’s ostensibly supposed to love.She is so wildly unlikable that it almost feels like we should be rooting against her. She made a character that is literally a hulk, seem small, weak, and pathetic.

The biggest irony is when she rants at the Hulk about being catcalled, she's literally invalidating Bruce Banner's struggles to prop up her small trivial inconveniences - which is something actual Narcissists do. So in a way She-Hulk is projecting there.

Let me tell you something, I'm latina and I grew up watching soap operas with my parents, and if you know anything about those shows, you know that the protagonist is always female. I never heard my dad, uncles or grandpas complaining because the protagonist was a woman, indeed, they rooted for her. Those protagonists were relatable to latinas, and that's why we like them.

Same here around SEA. The story usually revolves around the life of a female lead discovering her "soulmate" and/or reaching her dreams. Even Korean Dramas and anime (usu. shojo anime) have likeable female leads with really interesting stories. :)

Im 1yr late to this video but its aged really well. Ive loved and grown up on the MCU yes but I *adore* well written female leads, Alien is one of my fav movies ever and Ellen Ripley's evolution is a sight to behold. Compared to nowadays movies n shows like She-Hulk or Velma or character asssinating ones like Mulan feel the need to belittle insult and treat the plights us guys go through as if theyre nothing. The ways they had She-Hulk downright disrespect what Bruce had gone through was in such poor taste, writing all the pain and heartbreak and loss hes experienced cause "Ive experienced worse"; its so pandering and i hate it. Nothing causes fans, be them fem male n anything inbetween, to leave so fast when the characters we grow up watching and loving to death get treated like garbage by someone who seems absolutely devoid of empathy or emotions. Appreciate your video speaking out in defense of actual good female leads, we very much adore these types of movies

"So who is this stuff for?" It's for the feminist directors and producers in Hollywood who want to justify their sad, vindictive lives and give themselves awards for promoting girlpower while fighting The Patriarchy! Any man (or woman) challenging their right to do this will be 'taken out' by the Me2 movement.

Just yesterday I overheard some kids at the bus stop saying she-hulk was the funniest thing and they liked it. So even if you and me like some better quality of writing and less "message" in our entertainment, seems like there is a market for it. The young are generally easier to be influenced. 🤷♂️
