How many of the female superhero/spy azz kicker movies do we need? There's another Charlize Theron movie coming out that's like every Angelina Jolie movie, except she's a Lesbian. Tired of Hollywood pushing these sh1tty SJW movies down our throats.

Not sure why it matters as long as they're good. This new WW looks like it will be pretty decent.

Looks fine to me. But then again, I don't hate women.

Is someone forcing you to watch these? If not, why does it make you so angry?

As soon as I saw this thread title I knew there'd be a pboy post complaining about a female being the lead in a movie. He never disappoints.

Also, Wonder Woman has been around since 1941, so it's not some newly created thing to appease women or force a narrative on anyone.

So are the men movies anymore but at least this one is the original Superheroine. Looks like DC might finally have not screwed up a non-Batman movie, bad Dornish accents aside.

on average 600 movies are released a year (per Google). 3 female led action ones come out in the same year, and response is "Hollywood is pushing feminism down our throats".

Not pissed so much as bored. Worse then the girl power nonsense is that this is another super hero franchise. Do we really need any more 'Super Hero" movies? Do we need the same tired old story lines dressed up as something new & fresh? Am I the only one bored by all this crap?
As for the "girl power" bit, Wonder Women is at least "old school" and was the original girl power franchise. But I find it fascinating that over the last 10 years there's been an explosion in movies & TV shows that feature diminutive women beating the hell out of guys much bigger & stronger. It's just amazing how so many of these women are expert marksmen and street fighters making Bruce Lee look like a chump with their martial arts prowess. They seemingly violate the law of physics with 115 pound girls throwing 220 pound guys around like pillows.
It's beyond make believe because there is NOTHING in the current world that supports the girl power exploits that we routinely see in the movies. Nor is there any historical evidence of superior warrior women. But hey if this is some peoples cup of tea go for it! It's only entertainment.

Lotr had his way, our only action hero would be that great actor, Steven Seagal.
Bruce Lee: 5'7", Jackie Chan 5'9", Van Damme 5'9" Jack Reacher 5'7" Jason Bourne 5'9"
Yeah, he's no problem with boy power and the proliferation of like flics. He finds it "amazing" that women now have purchasing power and that business people are providing products that would interest them. Lotr, what're going to do when you get to Alpha Centauri and find it dominated by spiders?

I like women super heroes. They usually dress them in provocative outfits and they usually have a bangin body.

For the record it's not that I'm angered it's that I'm bored by this nonsense.
IMO the key to an enjoyable science fiction or fantasy movie is the ability of the producers/writers/directors to convince me to suspend my disbelief.
Whether it was the plausible extrapolation of the future in movies like 2001, Blade Runner or Total Recall or the "lived in" look of Alien, Star Wars or Lord of the Rings, the key has always been akin to a magician - convince people the unreal is real.
But as I said before it's a case of personal taste in entertainment. Nothing more or nothing less. I do find it interesting that you guys get so perturbed by those of us who don't particularly like these girl power & super hero movies.

There is that.
But my guess is as we move towards our brave new androgynous world you may lose one of the few redeeming features of a girl power film.
