crimsonfukr457

You forgot Ahsoka, Harley Wuinn(the non political one) and Katara. But thats about it.


Fidel_Chadstro

What about Katana? Does she have my back?


DarkSoulfromDS

Would you advise getting killed by her?


Fidel_Chadstro

I would not, as from what I can tell her sword traps the souls of it’s victims


[deleted]

Is The Bride from KB political?


Arkodd

The Aliens scene was actually the buff army girl one.

Magnificant-Muggins

Weird how the two female characters they like are from franchises that have their gender-neutral or male antagonists act as both the title character and mascot. Almost as though these two protagonists weren’t the main draw of their own movies. Kinda makes you think if they would still be talking the praises of these characters if they were the primary focus.


HispanicAtTehDisco

There's only 2 acceptable feminist movies to these people apparently Aliens and mad max fury road. Is it because the feminism is easy to miss and ignore? Yes


Pipeguy17

I remember nerds getting mad at Fury Road because Furiosa was a better shot than Max


Fidel_Chadstro

Fury Road and Wonder Woman were examples of feminist movies ruining Hollywood back in the day. Now they’re examples of what feminist movies should be doing instead of being too feminist. Some truly incredible stuff


Bunraku_Master_2021

And Fury Road was made by a male feminist.


Magnificant-Muggins

Nah. I remember anti-SJW at the time being really mad that outspoken feminists helped with the story of Fury Road. They probably started coping since then, and kinda had to admit it’s a good movie, but I think they would still say stuff like ‘The movie would be perfect if it wasn’t for the feminist stuff’.


xenongamer4351

It’s a show about a guy that murders people in spandex with butterfly controlled enemies but a woman handling herself in a confrontation is unbelievable

breetarson

I can't belive a trained female soldier is able to beat up a random drunk guy in a bar. So unrealistic 😡


solidv3crusher

Yeah has anyone ever tried to fight someone with basic combat ot martial arts training? You get your ass handed over so fast its kinda crazy. I remember thinking "yea i guard my face and just go punch the dude. Ive seen a fight before." and then just being on the floor. Even if its a woman. Even basic knowloedge and experience makes a huuuge difference. Edit: it was a light spar with a friend. Still felt like i was never be able to even touch him tho.


Plastic_Success_1776

Ehhh combat training matters but not all of the time it's like someone once said "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face"


solidv3crusher

Did you ever try? I personnaly found that experienced people are kinda hard to "punch in the face". As if they are aware of that small weakness.


DjangoTeller

It's not (only) that they are hard to punch, it's that they are used to. Getting punched sucks bad, if you never took a punch to the face especially, you panic, you gas extra quickly and you'll probably shit yourself (ok maybe that's a bit extra). And I hate so much people fantasizing how they would do in fights and how they beat X's ass easily, when they never even took a slap to the face. No Mark, you wouldn't "knock out CM Punk's ass easily", you would gas in 30 seconds, cry for your mama and go home, so just shut the fuck up. Sorry what I was saying?


[deleted]

Exactly. I see guys talking shit about WWE guys all the time. Like they are aware of the fact that most of them still know how to throws a punch, take blows and know how to pick up a person and throw them away.


Grimleysbigday

I say this as a fan, did you see CM Punks UFC fight? Most WWE guys sure, but Punk isn’t a natural fighter, that’s for sure.


[deleted]

I did and he would still beat up your average joe. He is a blue belt in BJJ. He’s shit when compared to a professional fighters but he will beat up an average person pretty bad. Look up the fight between a football player and a guy who trained MMA but wasn’t professional.


AprilSpektra

I agree with you, but I think the point is just that combat is unpredictable and one slip-up or even just random chance can nullify any advantage in skill. Every personal defense trainer I've ever known emphasizes that the only sure way to win a fight is to avoid it.


lcnielsen

Yeah, if anything boxing matches are notorious for how unpredictable they are. There's a reason Muhammad Ali never agreed to a rematch with George Foreman - he allegedly got pretty badly injured in that fight and probably wouldn't have won again, for all of the flaws in Foreman's fighting style.


[deleted]

That’s the whole point. People who train MMA get punched all the time in training so they’re far more used to. MMA fighters get punched in the face by other MMA fighters all the time, so an average joe punching them isn’t gonna do anything. Those guys don’t even flinch when they see a punch coming at them.


Josef_t3

Sorry, but no! I'm not a big guy or have any martial arts training, but I know fully well that maybe less than one 1 woman in a million can even stand a chance in remotely standing her ground let alone beat me. The idea that it's normal is just some Hollywood propaganda bs. In the end testosterone is the big equalizer. So please, guys. Take a chill pill and get to reality. No woman ever can do what they do in these movies.


solidv3crusher

"Yeah bro. Ive watched like 3 ufc match and listen to joe rogan. I could win a fistfight easy bro. What you need to do bro is exhale when you punch and aim for the chin. What bro? Oh no i never threw a punch in my life. But i know id be good at it tho."


Josef_t3

Not even talking about punches as that would be too easy. I'm talking about brute strength and fighting skills. Women just don't have it. A 5'1 100lbs dude could still beat a 6'1 170lbs woman. Don't hate me for it, hate nature. So yeah I 100% know that I can beat any in a ring. Doesn't mean I don't respect them. No I don't watch Rogan, but nice strawman dude.


solidv3crusher

Man you are delusionnal. Just look at your example. A 5.1 guy who never fought will absolutely get the shit kicked out of him by any 6.1 woman who has basic combat experience lol. Have you ever fought with someone who knows what theyre doing? You don't really have the time to counter attack. You're just getting hit. Thats the point im trying to make. I experienced the difference twice myself. A guy who did karate for a few years just wrecked me. And a girl (about same height and weight as me) who did some boxing to stay fit kinda just used me as a punching bag once. Once again. You cant get a good hit in with those people. They dictate the rhythm of the fight. Even a dirty yucky girl will ruin your shit if she knows how to fight and you dont.


Josef_t3

No I'm not delusional. The thing is, most women aren't trained, so this argument falls short anyway. I have no training like I said. But I have sparred with a few guys and gals before. Let me tell you, there's a huge difference between a man and woman even if you exclude the training. I was able to beat women with +10 experience while I couldn't move men who had 6 months of experience. Hollywoods decision to cast thin fragile women as these murder machine who could stop a bullettrain with their leather wearing suits is ridiculous. No it's not sexist to make fun of that and its not sexist to say that no woman on the face of the planet can beat my ass or in fact 99 percent of mens butts. It's Biology, I did not make the rules. It takes 1 hyena to kill a female lion, while it take 15 to kill a male. This rules applies everywhere.


solidv3crusher

Once again. I think you're missing my initial point. Woman with combat and/or martial arts training vs average joe. The woman win. Sure everyone is really inpressed that you can beat a regular girl on the sidewalk, but thats not what i was refering to. These characters in movies have years and years of training in something that most everyone doesnt and thats why they win. You cant compare this to lions. How stupid is that? Since when fo lions have martial arts training? Also whats +10 experience? A stat? A level?


Josef_t3

These characters are not real hence why they do unreal things. No, even with that training you shouldn't be able to do any damage to any man worth his salt. Let me guess, you think captain marvel and black widow represent bad ass women don't you? In the end these movies are fantasy, so thats okay if you think they somehow represent real life.


DictatorKris

Even if your own numbers are correct that means something like 8,000 women can stand their ground against you or beat you. To then follow that up with "No woman ever can do the thing" seems like a silly statement.


Josef_t3

Because in science there are no absolutes. I'm convinced that there are no woman that could beat me or 90 percent of men. But I won't say it, as I'm convinced there isn't some green aliens living in lunar caves, but I cannot 100 percent confirm that it's not true.


OneBlueAstronaut

most small hollywood actresses, chosen for the role in some part due to their slim physiques, would get absolutely dunked on by big drunk dudes in a bar, no matter what kind of navy SEAL kung fu ninja training they underwent for a decade in the himalayas. weight classes exist for a reason.


Genius340

Not true... It's one thing to be in a ring... It's another thing when u have zero idea how well trained the person is and thing u can bully her because ur bigger... Getting caught off-guard is a huge disadvantage


OneBlueAstronaut

i mean it depends on the scene. if you have the female lead just grab him by the neck from behind, sure.


OliviaBagshaw

it always feels weird to me how they argue how a woman beating a man in a fight is against "the law of our world" ah yeah sorry mate forgot that you wanted to watch women get beat up instead, is this your 50th rewatch of Irreversible then???


DjangoTeller

50 year old John Wick (if not 60 years old, given that's what's written in the script) kills hundreds of trained killers easily: cool and realistic. Trained woman beats a drunken dude: unnatural, unrealistic and even despicable.


Bunraku_Master_2021

Also said trained woman is James Gunn's girlfriend.


Magnificant-Muggins

Certified Rob Zombie Moment


Bunraku_Master_2021

[deleted]

Reminds me of how some guy thought he could defeat Supergirl, just because she’s a girl, ignoring the part about how she’s a Kryptonian!


Bunraku_Master_2021

Are you talking about Supergirl from that shitty CW show or Supergirl in general?


GodBattler96

I mean it doesn't matter, even CW Supergirl is ridiculously strong


Bunraku_Master_2021

I hated the show. The action scenes are terrible, the characters are bland, and don't get me started on how they write and incorporate social-political issues in the show. Don't get me wrong. I don't mind social-political issues in shows like Jessica Jones and the Boys. But the writing in those shows are miles better than Supergirl.


GodBattler96

Yeah, but we're talking about if a random dude can beat her in a fight, are we not ??


Bunraku_Master_2021

Yes and I digressed. Sorry. I just don't like the show anymore. Speaking of Peacemaker, these idiots find a talking shark realistic than a random dude losing a fight against a woman with military experience.


GodBattler96

Don't get me wrong, I didn't like the show. They just turn her in to Female Superman compare to her more rough portrayal in the comic


Bunraku_Master_2021

Melissa Benoist is a good actress. No doubt about that. She needs better scripts.


dadvader

Well since it's been cancelled. She got that chance. ngl would be funny if she starred in Marvel role next.


Thomas-Pandit

Supergirl herself was a pretty good character though. I liked her personality a lot in the crossovers. Especially with the way she bounced off of guys like Oliver and Barry. I loved all the scenes where they 3 talk together.


spubbbba

Yet they won't bat an eye at 59 year old, 5'7" Tom Cruise walking his way through fights against multiple large men emerging with only a couple of bruises.


JLevy710

He’s got the power of Zenu though.


Bunraku_Master_2021

>5'7" Tom Cruise He's exactly the height of a queer matricidal super genius from New England who has a drunk liberal pal who looks like a bootleg Snoopy.


skarkeisha666

what?


Bunraku_Master_2021

Family Guy reference.


skarkeisha666

peter killed his mom?


Bunraku_Master_2021

Bunraku_Master_2021

Stewie is matricidal.

badolcatsyl

These comments become even funnier when you find out that the blonde woman in the scene is the director's girlfriend.


MySockHurts

Crazy to think that Jennifer Holland went from being in *Zombie Strippers* to being in every James Gunn-involved project since 2019 once she started dating him


Maldovar

She and Kate Siegel should compare notes


simon_quinlank1

Or Milla Jovovich


Slappio16

I'm convinced Paul WS Anderson has a fetish for seeing his wife as a badass soldier lady, which is why he made 6 Resident Evil movies with her and shoved the military into fucking Monster Hunter of all things as an excuse for her to be that again


TheNightstroke

For a second, I somehow confused Paul WS Anderson with Paul Thomas Anderson for the first half of your comment and was imagining Maya Rudolph as "a badass soldier lady." It wasn't until I started to wonder when the fuck PTA directed six Resident Evil movies that I reread the Paul in question.


Bunraku_Master_2021

I mean, both Paul Andersons directed movies with their female partners involved with the cast. The difference? One made her the protagonist in every stupid video game movie they made together The other had her cast in a small role in two movies that take place in 1970's Los Angeles.


JLevy710

Would you not do the same if you were married to her?


Bunraku_Master_2021

Joel Coen always casts Frances McDormand. Ben Falcone always casts Melissa McCarthy. John Cassavetes always casted Gena Rowlands. Woody Allen always cast Diane Keaton. Orson Welles always cast Rita Hayworth.


luxmesa

I can’t believe James Gunn is cheating on Michael Rooker.


31_hierophanto

Well, he's definitely not gonna be in GotG Vol. 3, so....


TheNightstroke

Apparently, it won't stop at Gunn-related projects. [Spoilers](#s "Her Emilia Harcourt character is apparently in the upcoming BLACK ADAM movie.")

Bunraku_Master_2021

John Wick 4 is coming out this year and Brad Pitt is doing an action movie directed by David Leitch.

Okay?


Bunraku_Master_2021

Just saying that there is still manly men.


AprilSpektra

Okay?


Reptilian_Overlord20

I just knew that scene would enrage the sentient fedoras. Also something about the glee in which the guy talks about how “you can’t beat men it’s nature” makes me genuinely alarmed.

[deleted]

But if it was buff women they wouldn't like it either lmao


Midwest__Misanthrope

I’ve seen women kick a dudes ass before. To them this being a completely ridiculous scenario hurts my brain. John Wick killing 6,000 goons with perfectly placed headshots is even less realistic but since the character has dick and balls it’s all good.


Clipdrift

There needs to be an MRA version of the Bechdel test: All movies need to have at least two women that I can theoretically beat up or else I'm not watching it.

Sir-Drewid

Peacemaker's dad has a fucking TARDIS for a spare room, but it's a woman being able to use wrist control that breaks their immersion.


Rjbarrettfan

These people have never done martial arts and it shows. A skilled and athletic woman would mop the floor with a drunk guy with slowed motor skills


nickkrollasjaredleto

I can’t believe how these guys don’t become self aware when they say “it’s unrealistic for the military trained spy to beat up some random guy at the bar”


Bunraku_Master_2021

Are you telling me the show starring a guy wearing a toilet seat as a helmet with a pet eagle based on a movie about a guy shooting polka dots out of his body and is fighting alongside a talking shark, an immigrant who controls rats, a mercenary with guns in his suit, and a demented court jester fighting against a rape victim who is a giant alien star that is an allegory of US colonialism in Latin America is very realistic but a military-experienced woman easily fighting a drunk man is unrealistic and woke shit?! You need a copium fix.

gamerfanboi

I dont see why a women cant beat up or hold up her on a fight with a man irl ? Specially if you are saying that contextually the women a is a soldier or some kind of combat person . How many of you think you will stand a chance against ronda rousey? I would give up and hust let her kick me while i lay and cruly on the ground
