Anya Taylor-Joy isn't an action star, that's why.

First Underworld had such a cool atmosphere. I tolerated the sequels for she. I really did like the prequel movie though.

"Syndication", unc. I had to catch it on a streaming site that no longer exists and I'm convinced that if it were a contemporary release /tv/ types would make a point of whinging about every episode ("typical girlboss shit look at Mike Donovan and Ham Tyler taking orders from Julie and why is there only one black alien? it's because they're trying to demoralise us for being white that's why" etc).

If at this point you really still don't understand what normal people complain about in modern shit then you should just kill yourself

Women, fags, and lunatic oligarchs are in charge now.
So women suck in every role and all action or action adjacent movies are inorganic feminized faggotry.

It was crazy how bad they fucked up with Underworld: Evolution. Ruined the lore, way too much CGI, terrible action scenes, changed the hybrid design and made it look gay, and the whiny, annoying villain who is angry at daddy was a huge downgrade from Bill Nighy.
>>
>>223377000
There seems to be this matrix of "who the movie has in it" and "who the movie is for".
It was accepted you made movies that appealed to different types of people, sometimes the people in it were the same as the people in it. For example war movies were "men are in it" x "men watch it" and action heroine movies were "woman is in it" x "men watch it". And likewise there were lots of tv series that were "woman are in it" x "women watch it" (Gilmore Girls) but also "men are in it" x "women watch it" (Supernatural)
But then that changed. I think 4chan is generally too quick to jump to accusations of misandry, but it does seem that Hollywood decided they just didn't like men watching anything.

Uff, where to begin? The short answer would be that women feel intimidated and pressured by the trope. The long answer would involve discussing contemporary society favoring instant gratification over long character transformation hero journeys that involve overcoming challenges and trials. Women in particular dislike the hero journey structure and regard it as one of the narrative tools of the patriarchy. I shit you not. Won´t discuss it in detail because nobody would read anyways.

Long story short current audiences have no tolerance for building up and want to skip to the payoff. Women in particular feel that they shouldn´t have to earn the power through fire and blood. It´s a right and should belong to them simply because they deserve it and since it´s a sex empowerment thing, individuality has nothing to do with any of it. The character becomes simply a stand in for all women. Because of this mindset the leads end up being nothing more than powerful empty husks. They are unable to be cool characters because writers refuse to write characters at all. No flaws, no struggles, no individuality, no conflict other than tweeter tier social issues.
