Ripley and Sarah Connor were just flukes...

Ripley and Sarah Connor were just flukes. Having a female main character in your sci-fi movie is a red flag it's going to be shit.

ok, fuck off

It was a different time mang

Sarah Conner worked cus she was on that edge of the 80s madonna look at the first one and then she re-upped with super military GI Jane shit in the early 90s Ripley well I don't know what made her work same shtick I guess running around in her underwear and shit

Only reason I saw Prometheus was because it had Rooney
face it, there's no such thing as an Alien/Alien related movie without a female lead. It just werks.

damn imagine being your poor mom, ruining her body and giving up her freedom to carry you around for almost a year, going through the pain of childbirth, working hard to try and give you a good life, all for a piece of shit that contributes nothing of value to the lives of anyone

yeah it's not like those movies had something else in common than having strong female leads.

this should've been the first post

Did James create the character of Ripley?

Instead of projecting your own sad, pathetic life onto us, why not prove me wrong?

no but he turned her into an action star with badass one-liners. we wouldn't really be talking about her in the same context as Sarah Conner based on Alien alone. I prefer Alien myself.

if there's an earlier non-cameron example of an all-out female action heroine please someone point it out.

Cameron is a man hating cuck. always has been.

If your making a sci-fi movie that is probably a bigger red flag

Ripley in Alien
>A simple warrant Officer, has no military experience and survives on pure luck and just about outwits a single Xenomorph.

Ripley in Aliens
>An ass kicking assault weapon wielding bad-ass, she outperforms Elite military commandos while carrying a kid in one hand and a flamethrower in the other and slaughters 10+ Xenomorphs and the Queen.

Alien is realistic. Aliens is a good movie but its a terrible sequel. how did Ripley become Special Forces just by sleeping?

It worked because it was before the rise of modern feminism. Back then they were badass. If those movies were to be made today with female leads they'd be terrible.

you seem to have omitted Rose from Titanic for some reason!

Did public school start separating boys and girls? Women look dumb as fuck trying to "fight", especially against men. They're a fucking joke, and the only "men" that like this shit are just beta faggots, raised to be submissive pussies by single mothers. Shit's cancer.

you know movies aren't all written by the same roomful of ebil liberal conspirators, right?

>it was a different time, those movies could not have been made today
Then why is Alita so good?

How can one man be so based?

>only men can use weapons in action movies

???????????????

nice intellectual counterpoint.
put your tampon back in and argue the actual point, instead of thge knuckle scraping response.

they proved that the right actress can pull it off just as good as the best male action stars
other girls like michelle rodriguez and the girls from aliens work great as well, though they may not be leading role actresses
then we get stronk wamen like winona ryder in alien resurrection (still love that movie) and emilia clarke in terminator, they just do not fit in well with those types of movies

Ripley is carrying an M60 in that shot, it weighs the same as she does.
any questions?

He's saying Hollywood usually does it the wrong way by writing them like they're men.

It's not about the writers. It's about how modern women are.

it's a sci-fi flamethrower you dumbass

>Ripley doesn't let the xenomorph on her ship
>(((Ash))) overrules her command

fuck are you talking about, an m60 weighs slightly under 25 lbs

this is literally female reading comprehension kek

Rewatch Aliens mate, that's not how it goes down.

you're confusing written-by-committee movies with the work of actual filmmakers. committee-written movies are normally going to suck, it really doesn't matter what political/financial reasons cause them to suck.

I guarantee you Cameron doesn't have to ask for Kathleen Kennedy's approval with the Avatar sequels.

I enjoyed the hunger games and thought Katniss was a pretty good character tbqh
