Classic liberal idiot. It’s always someone else’s fault.

Classic liberal FEMINIST idiot. It’s always someone else’s THE MAN'S fault.

We need a Woke Three’s Company, where Jack Tripper really IS a homo and the girls are a fat swimsuit model and a black lesbian. Mr. Furley, well, he can still be a typical old white male dunce that is cuckholded by his wife and made a fool of by everyone else. Larry, we’ll turn him into an undocumented Dreamer named Lucien who just wants to graduate from medical school so he can help the poor women in his Central American village get free abortions.

It’s gonna be a hit, I tell you, a hit!

I looked up the movie cast online. You're right. The three Charley's Angels are sorta cute but not good lookers by a long stretch.

It also looks like she selected then for a PC diversity reason.

But Banks wanted a feminist movie and you know feminists. Most of them are in the fugly category.

No, Elizabeth...People are staying away because they’re sh&t full of putting out their hard earned to be “entertained” by Hollywood’s preachy PC crap...

Willowy 100# millenial chics kicking ass on 200# muscular bad guys is a stretch by any measure, but a sermon in misandry to boot is over the top...

I’ll stay home and watch old John Wayne and Clint Eastwood movies, and make my own popcorn, thankyouverymuch, girls!

One had the Harlem Globetrotters.

UNDERWORLD franchise with Kate Beckensale.
RESIDENT EVIL franchise with Milla Jovovich.
Peppermint movie with Jennifer Connally, which was watchable.

With all the examples of successful female bad-ass action movies and franchises in this thread, what is this woman talking about? She made a bad re-boot of a re-boot of a banal TV show and makes sexist excuses. Pitiful.

Actually, the wife and I are getting tired of so many action Movies or action TV shows having some small little woman beating up professional thugs and assassins. We see it in SWAT, SEAL TEAM, Hawaii 5-0 and on it goes. It's like a requirement in any action production to have a bad-ass female.

Loved ‘em.

Except “Allegiant”.

It dragged and seemed to depart from the text, even if you see it as the first of a two-parter that has been discontinued.

this is eerily reminiscent of the women's soccer team. It's everyone else’s fault that nobody cares.
These fascists would love a world where you are forced to watch what they do and to forced to like them and forced to give them your money. Then everyone would be equal.
