For those of you who didn’t watch, he does acknowledge the days when female heroes and female led action, sci-fi, fantasy, and crime stories were actually good before the current era of flat-persona women who maybe trips once and that’s called a flaw or struggle. You know, what would be weak if it were a male character. Turns out it’s weak for everyone. I have lists of my favorite heroines on this very site if you don’t believe that. Hollywood is too afraid to make a “girl” struggle even when the creators aren’t socially and politically motivated out of fear of women who aren’t going to see the movie anyway, and losing both the men and women who liked it the way it was and don’t want these replacements.
