Its ok to say you don't know.

Elon Musk challenged Vladir Putin to single combat. Stakes are Ukraine. He didn't mention what weapons though, I assume he wouldn't go hand-to-hand.

Or you could just write a good character, which is the point, regardless of the gender. Thats the problem when people rail against any criticism of any xyz character due to political reasons, you just perpetuate bad writing, bad story telling and its a shame.

Because it was created by a woman? Seems sexist.

Yeah its apparent people care more politics than good movies or stories or characters. I think the definition needs to be narrowed. Wonder Woman is not a Mary Sue, she is a fully developed, realistic character, beloved by all. So its all in the telling. In the new Matrix 4 Neo felt mary...

I don't think Michael Burnham was a mary sue, plenty of flaws, even if being a criminal was a little far fetched. The most obvious one was Captain Marvel, who is unbeatable, perfect, succeeds at everything, and is identical at the start of the movie and the end of the movie. Contrast with...

I mean all your posts in this thread are just garbage, can't do anything about that. I'm sure you have good posts elsewhere.

Feel free to crash a different thread.

Yes, I don't think there is any doubt there are lots of small movies with good characters.

Yeah I forget about that, though I don't think its an excuse for lack of character arc.

Dune was fantastic, but based on a book :-)

Clearly Hollywood has dozens of scripts being past around for the new fantasy where a small country led by a comic defends against a super power. Who should play the president?

I mean a bad movie can be for any reason. In the last 2 years, what is a big budget, block buster movie, with an amazing story and character, that was not based on a book or a comic, written by only the director.

Yeah I don't think anyone blames the actors unless it was bad acting. Unless the director wrote the story :-) which is my point. I think most issues could have been resolved by having a professional writer lay out the blueprint of the story. but idk maybe directors desperately want their...

The title is very click bait, he can't be saying all movies, because he reviews movies he likes. I think the selection is mostly centered on huge budge movies that fit the criteria of character arc. I don't think he has any dislike for female heroes, cause he provides stella reviews for lots of...

The question is why, why are these poor character arcs, these questionable stories getting written when you have a massive budget, all the resources in the world. The answer seems to be that the director wrote the script instead of hiring professional writers. I mean most game of thrones fans...

Maybe bow out of the thread then if you have nothing to offer.

I think you need to broaden your mind a little, he has shown lots of movies with amazing female leads. These examples of poor character arc are recent big budge remakes that should know better. And its not "all modern movies", its "modern movies" with poor life lessons. He is saying the...
