Innit though l mean Brie Larson looks nice and all, but Gal Gadot in a short skirt. No one is going to 0/10 that. Ive not seen the ghostbusters one. I prefer movies with male protagonists actually.
That's been my point from the beginning
speaking of irony, people complaining about triggering snowflakes are the easiest to trigger.As someone else put it, Larson is a raging fembot.
No also because it's a better movie. And because Gal Gadot is not a vocal feminist.
That's been my point from the beginning
About the male female thing I do think that it works both ways and some women give it a higher rating simply because the lead is female, but yes, wasting my time, I know
The user score of this movie is dragged down by it's agenda. I have no doubt. Feminism is a polarizing subject, the discussion on here is proof of that. If you read all of my posts, you can see that I also argue that some women undoubtedly score the movie too high for the same reason. In the end though super hero flicks are aimed at young men generally, so their agenda tends to skewer the score more severely.

Come on now, you know fine rightly that there have literally been no "strong female characters" in cinema before the last couple of years. White men just aren't ready to handle strong female characters like Rey or Captain Marvel. Them white men and their opinions are irrelevant, they can all be clumped together as one generic group of fools.
if they start charging for superscreen i am cancelling my unlimited card Fine, I will try one last time to explain my point which I'll start of with some words that have been put in my mouth:
). It is these redditers that I refered to when saying "little boys". Furthermore, these movies from different era's do not exist in a societal vacuum. People from different generations have a different outlook on life. The rise of political correctness and counter rise of anti political correctness obviously contributes to the polarization of the topic. Surely this is rather obvious?
The end is nigh! Disney are weaponizing their movies to urge young women to make false accusations of rape! Hide your willies and run for the hills!Sorry dude, I didn't mean that to come across like it was aimed at you. I was talking about the bizarre media circle jerk defence that's going on where they seem be denying film history while blaming white men for everything.Fine, I will try one last time to explain my point which I'll start of with some words that have been put in my mouth:
- I do not think Captain Marvel is a great movie. It's a 6.5, 7 at best.
- I do not think everyone who dislikes captain marvel is a sexist incel pig.
- I do not think men in general are incapable or unwilling to accept strong female characters (this movie doesn't even have one)
- I most definitely do not think Captain Marvel is in any way shape or form a ground breaking movie.
Having said that, there's a very large (or rather vocal) part of the internet who agressively downvote and hate on anything that doesn't fit their anti PC agenda. I urge you to browse through reddit for a few hours, if you don't believe me. And no, I don't think these people worship Sarah Connor, Ripley or some other strong female characters of the past (Lara Croft
That's also the key here, the internet. You ask me why there was no reddit or IMDB backlash over Leia in the original Star Wars movies? No angry Twitter threads with thousands of responses? Really? I feel there's an explanation for that somehwere. I just can't really put my finger on it.
There's plenty of men that love a movie with a strong female lead character (I don't by the way, imagine that, I can't even watch Harry Potter, because I think he's a sissy cnut). That doens't mean that there's no such thing as internet trolls that massively downvote stuff to suit their agenda. How, in the current age, people still doubt this is truly and utterly baffling.

I mean, come on, I just can't
Ah my bad then. I sort of fell down a reddit rabbit hole which blurred my vision I suppose.
The 10/10 crowd seem to hold more power, while the 1/10 crowd seem more vocal. As I said the whole thing is really fecking weird and it should never have been allowed to become a thing.Ah my bad then. I sort of fell down a reddit rabbit hole which blurred my vision I suppose.
I think that to some extend, the better the movie, the smaller the backlash, but there's plenty of internet trolls that give the movie a 1/10 because there's a female lead. Inversely, there's also plenty of people that give it a 10/10 for the same reason. I just think the 1/10 crowd is more vocal on the internet. Aside from that, I think this subject has been polarized massively in the last few years.
That being said, Carol Danvers doesn't hold any sort of candle to Ripley or Sarah Connor. Though I'd say she comes close to the Tomb Raider remake Lara Croft. Just saw that, awful film
. Bits of it seem to be shot for shot lifted from the game, which was excellent by the way. Despite the lack of hot bike courier action.Damn, if you think all of those were turd - why are you still bothered about the franchise?

Because I did really enjoy certain ones like Ragnarok, GOTG1, Winter Soldier etc.
