[QUOTE="AnotherGuy, post: 9442918, member: 7029930"] It is a fact that there are more female leads these days, particularly in the action genre market, which is likely to attract more critique as fandom movies do. George Clooney and Schumacher got plenty of vitriol for Batman and Robin and Ryan Reynolds did no one any favours with Green Lantern, but neither of them had the crappy scripted lines that the poor actress had to utter in that Batwoman series and I cannot remember any of male-led movie attacking the opposite-sex fanbase as She-Hulk apparently did. The attacks on the female leads is dead wrong, who is at fault are the producers and script-writers, they deserve a special hell for the utter contempt they have shown on many previous works of love. And again sadly, when an actor or actress defends them, as presumably they are forced, contractually or otherwise, to do on occasion, they likely get into the line of fire from the online mob and the rehearsed x-farms. Case in point - the actor of Tyrion Lannister in GoT who decided to [I]defend[/I] D&D (not the RPG) with that cowardly comment. It is what it is. [/QUOTE]
