An accused rapist is not the same thing as a rapist.

No this is about a DNC chairperson who was unscrupulous and biased in favour of one candidate while supposedly neutral.

They have to put a positive spin on it.

You mean in Thor?

And you result to insults over the internet when you don’t have an argument while I argue my points respectfully. I was never talking about just Kevin. Every man in the movie is portrayed negatively while the original had examples of both men and women portrayed positively. Portraying either gender exclusively…

Nice argument after being proven wrong about the women in the first movie.

I guess you haven’t seen the original. The women in that movie were intelligent and competent. Janine could hold her own in scenes with the ghostbusters and was an awesome likable character. Nobody in the movie was objectifying her or pitying her for being stupid and she wasn’t getting humiliated or being the butt of…

I think it’s wrong to portray one gender exclusively negatively in a “progressive” and “feminist” movie. Women still playing love interest characters sometimes in other movies is not a good justification for why that’s ever a good or positive thing to do.

Hollywood is very quickly moving away from that stereotype. Women play a lot more than just love interests in movies today even if they had much more limited roles in the past. Women star in less movies than men but they do star in a lot and they play a lot of different roles. Even when reduced to love interests,…

Women in movies today play a hell of a lot more roles than just the love interest who does nothing (despite still sometimes playing that role)

side characters are often necessary for a story. they don’t have to be the focus. there are female led films too (not as many as male led but don’t pretend they are hard to find) and men play the smaller supporting roles. There is nothing wrong with that. the problem is when all the side characters of a gender are…

Swift was lying and slandering her husband publicly. Defending his name with evidence was not petty.

Fieg said they need to make $500 million for it to be considered a success. Since the movie is not playing in China, that seems unlikely.

Playing a love interest is a better role than playing a stupid jerk that the audience is supposed to hate

Being the love interest is a necessary role in many stories and the character can easily be portrayed positively and stand beside the lead as someone of equal intelligence and integrity. Dana didn’t have too much to do but she was respectable and could hold her own in scenes with the ghostbusters. Being a respected…

a remake ‘with a twist’ is still a remake

being a love interest isn’t a negative thing. i don’t know if i’ve ever seen a movie in which every female character was actually written to be stupid, incompetent or a jerk

most of those movies wouldn’t work as well as ghostbusters as a passing of the torch sequel 30 years later

because then they would be getting help from competent men and that’s not what the movie was about. they had to invent everything themselves or else they wouldn’t be strong independent women

oh god shut up
