Excellent response.

Your “it’s a dumb movie, but I expect it to uphold the values explained in the Kinja article from a movie made 20 years ago” argument is negated by the fact that you just pointed to the sequels of a dumb movie in the same franchise that didn’t have the same level of gender representation.

Good for you and your point, I guess? What about The Lost World and JP3? Were those the heralded feminist blockbuster sequels you were expecting?

I respect linking a years old article that aligns with your own personal convictions but I wasn’t talking about the movie that came out in 1993. I was talking about the CGI dinosaur fuckfest (Jurassic World) from 2015.

What are you doing here then with such a hot take?! GET TO HOLLYWOOD AND SAVE THE FUTURE OF DINOSAUR MOVIES!!!

Your last sentence pretty much sums it up perfectly!

You got it dude. Marvel warms my heart and regardless of any opinions out there it will always be one of my ‘things’. Discussing passions rationally and respectfully has only helped me lead some non-believers towards the light :)

Ant-Man is in my top 3, easily, but I’ll defend you from jabs.

I didn’t have to lower my expectations though...

Completely understand!

Answer honestly: did you go into the theater wanting well rounded characters?

I’d say it has more to do with dinosaurs being the point of the movie and not relying on a dinosaur movie to be at the forefront of female issues but let’s just agree to disagree...

That’s an understatement.

Is it wrong I want to see something from this movie I dislike? Because so far it doesn’t seem to be real.

No no no no no no see you're supposed to care about everyone's feelings, even if they're based in nonsense.

Would you have posted a video of 50 naked women? Asking for a friend. And because, you know, I already know the answer.

Here I am just fiddle-fartin' along and up pops Orange Goblin. God Damn.

But where are the pictures of games?!

This man absolutely deserves every ounce of comfort he's worked for. This is great to see!
