Terminator 2 - Linda Hamilton
Indiana Jones - Karen Allen
Star Wars - Carrie Fisher
Aliens - Sigouney Weaver

I've provided enough examples that allow me to correct her statement:

"...men don’t go see women do crappy action movies that are remakes of old TV shows."

and

"...women don’t go see women do crappy action movies that are remakes of old TV shows."<

Princess Vespa - Spaceballs....

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.
