I assume she is NOW because she seems to be the only one who came out of that movie with anyone caring about her character. I bet, though, that the original plan was for the Joker or Deadshot to be the leader.

Oh, they do. But god forbid you bring up gender or race issues without somebody feeling the need to do a little shit-stirring.

How sad is that?

Oh my friend, i hate to disappoint you….

I forgot about that American rule, that makes sense. I still feel like there must be so many we're all overlooking though.

Oh shoot I forgot about those meddlesome boobs!! Always a good go-to for the blame.

There's this weird thing happening with MCU at least (I honestly don't keep up on most Star Wars news) where it's like… they want more women telling women's stories!

Not to be a whiner, but I think a more productive article would have included a list of said directors that were snubbed?

Oh hello, I can help!

Hey, equal rights ok? We ladies are just as allowed to direct garbage films as guys are.

No I have not but you better believe based on that name alone I'm adding Carnasaur to my must-see list.

Shoot. I was hoping D- might fall into that "so terrible it's a fun day" watch, but I think you make a good point.

Oh good, so we're back to divine right of kings again. Really coming full circle here, America.

I agree. I know some people think they're too nit-picky, but I think that's kind of the point? If you take them as real film criticism then yes, that kind of picking can be obnoxious, but they're just silly, short bits of fluff humor.
