I gots no problem with female leads in movies. I just don't like having my intelligence insulted. Hollywood's ham-handed, over-the-top 'you will like our female lead or else' attitude is what's off-putting. The fact that they have to point fingers and say anyone who doesn't 'like' Rey is a sexist is the proof in…

'F-f-first they said, 'D-d-d-don't stutter! Th-th-then they said 'You're not funny'! P-p-political correctness has killed cartoons!'

He was kind of right about Rey, though. Even before I'd seen the movie, I KNEW, somehow I knew, that there was going to be some scene or other in which a male character would offer to help her with something, and she would angrily slap his hand away, saying something like 'I don't NEED any help from a man!'
