One of my guilty pleasures is watching cheesy sci fi or action movies. Unfortunately, my experience is often ruined. I was watching Riddick, this thread isn't how bad most of you think movies like these are the point is I was getting into it, and halfway through this girl starts beating up the villain. Then the villain calls her a whore and she beats him up AGAIN and tells him, "I don't fuck guys." I just turned it off after that.

It's not that I don't like females in action/sci fi movies, I don't like them acting like men and dominating men like its realistic. It's retarded and ruins the movie. I love old Bond movies, I love the old Conan movie, but I want to watch newer stuff without having to turn it off halfway through because some lesbian starts beating up everybody.

Regardless of gender, I dislike action heroes that just kick everyone's ass to infinity and act all arrogant and stuffy. Female characters are often the most glaring examples of this, but honestly it's a universal problem. It's not believable at all, and I can't turn off my brain enough to swallow the stupid story that usually goes along with it.

Just leave the inflated ego at the door and I'll like your action character.

Rant:

Most Hollywood movies and television shows are full of patronising lectures that teach toxic fantasy messages, and since women have an unhealthy relationship to fantasy and are highly-suggestible to both imitating fantasy behaviour and basing their expectations upon it, I find 'entertainment' a large part of the problem we're dealing with, and simply don't bother. I only experience through socialisation with others, rather than actively seeking it out.

Disney movie are the worst for this; but I'll also single out any of the you-go-girl, snarky shit by Joss Whedon - the aspirational fantasy for every Jezebeller; or any of the flood of shows and movies showing petite women laying out massive bodybuilders with one punch. Overdramatic bitch teenage daughters are the other stereotype that I suspect models behaviour, as they're rarely punished for the worst transgressions. They always speak with vocal fry, so it's interesting to see how that way of speech is becoming normalised amongst young women, leading to croaky, unattractive voices.

I keep busy and I'm able to entertain myself in other ways, because I'm not a passive, binge-watching blob constantly in need of distraction from reality. You'll see the results of this voracious, passive consumption when you try to hold a conversation at a bar or club: women expect you to be interesting and entertaining, and offer very little back. It's up to you to prove yourself worthy of her time, whilst they have overloaded with positive self-esteem messages via the media to not even be able to conceive of the fact that they're utterly-boring creatures, and show more investment and emotion over the lives of fictional characters in televisions shows than those around them.

Larry David has mad game:

[kdolo]

If you have notice - most recent big picture releases from Hollywood - the action movies in particular have scenes of women who
during the course of an argument walk up and smack or punch a man in the face.

They are doing this intentionally to spread disharmony between the sexes. They are encouraging women to disrespect men.

divide and conquer.

Women will start to attempt this in real life only to get themselves severely heart or killed.

[MrXY]

Meanwhile back in reality....

[KorbenDallas]

Kdolo, that's exactly what happened in Riddick. It was so stupid. I hardly watch movies or tv, I don't own a TV, so, it really made me mad. I settled down to watch a movie and relax and I have to sit through that??

[phoenix101]

I grudgingly suspend belief when I see someone like Scarlett Johansson beating up a group of guys, but it also applies to some far out reality-defying stunts by male actors.

You see a lot of these "strong female characters" in super hero/fantasy/sci-fi movies these days. Well there's a reason these movies are classified as science fiction or fantasy and it's not just because of the space ships and wizards.

The problem is most broads cant tell the difference between real life and fantasy.

Neither can the white knights/manginas who seriously defend this shit.

The movies are bad because the characters are unbelievable.

The "strong female character" is usually unbelievable because she has no natural motivation for being a "kick-ass" character.

Compare this with Sarah Connor from "Terminator" -- the character had motivation, i.e., her unborn son's fate was at stake.

Also, Ripley from "Aliens" -- her character could be considered just another guy until she came across the girl, Newt -- and then Ripley's protective maternal instincts kicked in.

Credible movie characters need to have a base motivation, regardless of gender.

Never seen any of the kill bill volumes but that line is gold. "American women are only good at ordering food at restaurants and spending a mans money."

Actually the movie Riddick is a pleasant exception. I am a big fan of the whole Riddick franchise so far, because Riddick embodies a lot of masculine alpha virtues. He is a man who fights for himself not artificial ideals of society yet ends up being more moral then anyone else because of him being close to the natural order of things. He is the most alpha character ever. The movie "Riddick" got accused for misogyny a lot so you know it is actually good.

Sure the warrior-woman Dahl kicked ass of Santana - a comic relief character, who got his ass kicked by everyone. And she said "I dont fuck guys". Like a typical girl power woman. But in this movie it took a different turn. Riddick predicts in this movie that he will "bury his balls deep in Dahl" and while the move doesn't show this it is implied that it does happen indeed at the end.

I actually read a review by an angry liberal critic who shunned this movie and called it misogynistic. In his liberal naivete this critic interpreted the line "I dont fuck guys" as an actual statement of Dahl being a lesbian, not just a mere posing as it was intended. Then he got furious that she betrayed her holy non-heterosexuality and fucked a man by saying "Because as we all know, lesbians just need a real man to fix us." But as red pill men we know that it is just the case, we all know that lesbians and feminists do their thing just to get attention and shit test men, because they are bored and driven crazy being surrounded by weak beta males. And when a man passes her tests - the woman forgets that she is a lesbian or a feminist easily.

Here is the review:

I recommend this movie to everyone.

Recently I have been really enjoying the show 'The Blacklist', until the last episode. The main female lead 'Liz Keene' decides to go from newbie FBI agent to John Mclane / Ellen Ripley, so unrealistic it's not even funny.

Funny, because one of the only shows I like is HOMELAND, which features a crazy bitch who's a CIA agent. She gets pregnant from some barfly she seeks shelter with while on the run, and I've only seen her fight in an extreme situation on the street where she had the advantage of surprise and temporarily disabled a male attacker. They never have her king-fu-ing healthy males, which I agree is usually very unrealistic.

She accomplishes what she wants to do with her social skills and sexual appeal, and I find it fairly realistic except they'd have fired her long ago for being so crazy. But fiction generally has to have some unreality or it would really be crushingly boring like real life is for most people.

Imagine being a CIA agent watching a house all day. All fucking day, sitting in a car watching for someone going in or out of a house. How can you have more than 4-5 seconds of that 8 hours in a TV show without losing the audience?

I liked the Kill Bill movies a lot, but that was more about the interesting plot than Uma Thurman as a character. She's really the only female warrior in fiction that I enjoy.

[scotian]

Whenever I hear about female warriors, I think of the Dahomey Amazons, an all female military regiment of a very well developed pre-colonial present day Benin, in West Africa.

I think there's a thread of this on RVF. The LOLZ in this is how the OP thought she was going to find some anti-male kick-ass broads.
