Personally, I think no other game developer has the kind of borderline fetishistic fixation for clothing CD Projekt has. There's The Witcher 3 of course, but I recently fired up 2 and the armor and clothing design has some truly pornographic texture work. It's one of the few games I'd cosplay if I looked like anything…

No probs. Enjoy!

We may have less of a disagreement than you think. I don't think I've said anywhere that "feminist" is some kind of award to be bestowed on the work upon completion of certain requisites, and even if I did they wouldn't be anything so crude as authorial intent, stated or hidden. I have wondered, though, what is it…

Liliana Cavani's "Episode XII: Beyond Light and Dark." I feel embarrassed by my inability to deploy italics in Disqus.

That's the one being directed by the Godzilla dude, right? I had mixed feelings about that one, but it did have some great scenes. Hopefully with an actual writer and that kickass cast they've announced it'll be a more enjoyable movie.

That said, anything post-Episode IV. I bet she'd have a field day with the Imperials x)

I'd pay actual money to see a Bigelow-helmed Star Wars. Maybe one of the spin-offs, since they seem more focused on the down-and-dirty of the Galaxy.

Ah, let's see. I don't have anything against analysis, feminist or of any other kind. The more perspectives the better, I'm something of a sucker for marxist gay criticism of Shakespeare. I may have given another impression, I'm not a native speaker and the pressures of social media can contribute to some muddling of…

That's a pretty good point and to be honest, I hadn't thought of it that way and it's really obvious in hindsight x( However, I don't think it's enough of a consistent theme to the movie as to make it qualify, as a whole, as a "feminist" work. Part of what disappointed me in approaching it as a feminist work (as…

Aw :(

I trust it's not too big of an ask not to twist my words! :p I said nothing about feminist movies turning people away, which I guess may happen in the off chance of a movie actually having enough of a feminist message to offend an anti-feminist smart enough to understand the message and react to it in a meaningful…

Well, that's what interpretation is about. Reading beyond the stated intents of both author and work. I think feminist criticism has taken a hit in terms of producing quality commentary, but I'd say it's as much a problem with the current crop of critics as with the quality of the work under review. Not everyone can…

It's not a "problem", as in a general problem to the whole of society. It's just misleading marketing that works to the detriment of the work, and perhaps can sour viewers to trying anything "different" and actually good.

These days it seems you could get anyone to support anything by putting a woman in it and saying it's "feminist", no analysis given x)

Not to mention critics outright making qualities up on the spot. What, exactly, makes A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night a feminist movie? Because quite frankly, I didn't think it had much to say about women at all (a bit criminal, being a movie about a woman in Iran of all places), or anything for that matter. Critics…

I'm not saying they shouldn't, that's the reason I try to watch what they do (my radar is equally defective for man or woman-helmed releases, which makes things hard for anyone in the minority). Critics should probably be a bit more honest about the quality of pictures, though, rather than just giving five stars to…

I would like it if a female director did Star Wars, but I'd also like it if she'd do it well. So far I'm not quite sold on the idea that putting a woman behind the works will necessarily bring a new perspective, or that the new perspective will necessarily make for a good movie (or even an interesting one, although…
