I can't think of any female characters in any of the Star Wars movies whom I found interesting. It's a shame that Portman, who played the little girl in Leon, was relegated to tagging along with the travesty Darth Vader character in Episode I-III.

Anyway, I'm more of a Star Trek fan. Star Trek has always had an enlighted view of women.

You should have linked the Seven-of-Nine picture when she still had the outfit she couldn't breathe in.

In a sense complaining about a lack of female stars actually smacks of "we need moar eye-candy" and is a bit insulting.

There are no women in Disney films. There are only Princesses and Bitches[1].


[1] The word "evil" doesn't do Disney female villains justice.

People want women (and minorities by extension) to have fair representation in film. They don't. It has nothing to do with "eye candy" and if it were then movies would be completely dominated by women.

Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. is a 1970 book by Judy Blume, typically categorized as a young adult novel, about a girl in sixth grade who grew up without a religious affiliation. Margaret's mother is Christian and her father is Jewish, and the novel explores her quest for a single religion. Margaret also confronts many other pre-teen female issues, such as buying her first bra, having her first period, coping with belted sanitary napkins (changed to adhesive sanitary pads for recent editions of the book), jealousy towards another girl who has developed a womanly figure earlier than other girls, liking boys, and whether to voice her opinion if it differs from those of her friends.

I'm sure that they have binders of women.
In walks Lindsay Lohan.
In walks Miley Cyrus.
In walks Jennifer Love Hewitt.
In walks Britney Spears.
Welcome to yet another Disney movie!

Whenever people try and tell me that "people want this" about that kind of thing (typically while trying to say the Wonder Woman movie should ever see daylight), I point them at Catwoman.

I disagree. As bad as Terminator: Salvation was, amongst other films. No one has a right to a film makers script if you are not directly involved in the project. And last time I checked the production of a movie production studio is a private business, not a community organizer project.

Catwoman did not work as there was no Batman. She doesn't really work well alone as a character. Hollywood Execs were too stupid to realize that.

Now, that was "eye candy" only and absolutely. And they took a financial whacking for it.

Intellectual property, in this case referring primarily to the gamut of after-Endor novel series.

Do you like Philz? I'm having some Julie's Ultimate this morning.

I mean, honestly, the first and probably last female action hero to be well received was Ellen Ripley. And even then they sequel'ed it to death.

Sarah Connor.

Anyway, I think probably 85% of people would be bothered by a cast being almost entirely male.

In the second movie? Sure, but the whole "seriously mentally ill" thing was a wrench.

In the first movie she spends the entire time running until the last 10 minutes when she finds her spine.

The only problem was that the show was too short lived to develop them any further..

I'm not a huge fan of the Ripley or Aeryn Sun type tough chick characters.. not because they're tough as nails, but because they seem to become one dimensional over time.

It's alright holding up SW as some sort of universal SF action movie for all ages and generations, but don't overlook the fact Leia spent a good portion of the final movie semi nude and Amidala was nothing but a womb in waiting (with nice outfits).
