You try and enjoy a movie but they just blast you with their woke "message".

The thing is a great majority of the film franchises have built a reputation, story, lore, characters. Then these woke dingdongs just use the reputation and existing fanbase to then create, sequels and remakes with their "woke message".
Think of how many of these franchises would see success if it was woke from the beginning. Can you name me one original woke franchise that has been successful?

she failed anyways and would've been eaten by that lion if not for him.


moviemakers graciously deciding to only treat main male hunter with 85% disrespect (by showing he's not a TOTAL failure and managed to finish off a gravely wounded animal) instead of going full 100% disrespect - is not really a redeeming moment

she did not "fail" in the main-hunter-posse-failure kind of way either, an unknowable factor that was out of her control (a rock) happened to be in the place her head landed after the fall

dont forget the scene where main male hunter is further denegrated as he privately discourages her to her face by saying (paraphrasing) "i lied when i gave you props, you are actually useless since you lost consciousness, thus you're not worthy"

The last Matrix movie was such a disappointment. The movie was about some lesbian Asian chick and not Neo anymore. The most ridiculious stunt was done to He-Man show. He wasn't main char in his own show :lol:

Strawman argument, most rookies get the "hard" treatment from pros. She happened to be a woman so different kind of verbal abuse.

so a rookie that spent couple days in the woods used her Vagina super power to kill a interstellar hunting god while hardened male hunters failed like jobbers

That vagina super power = luck. She faced a super weakened rookie predator. In a sense, rookie vs rookie. In no way, she had a chance against him 1 on 1 from the very start.

I couldn't believe my eyes then I asked myself what I was watching. I wanted to watch Resident Evil: Welcome to Racoom City (I was very happy, fan of all the games here) then I saw "Jill", turned off and never looked back.

I heard Lance Reddick is playing Wesker in the series.What a waste of potential. He is a superb actor, I'd rather make an exciting thriller with him than dump him into that garbage series.

BTW, rotten tomatoes cannot be trusted anymore. The last bastion is IMDB.

No scars on his face, primitive weapons, he fought every other predator he encountered, was hurt even by a wolf. He was on earth for the first time.

i viewed the wolf/bear fights as him being macho/tanking hits as he did not perceive them as real threats

if instead it was supposed to show that he's a rookie, thats yet another disrespect in my book, except victim of it is the predator instead of male hunters (that stupid goat-at-the-slaughter-esque head move at the end as if he does not know how his own weapons work)
