And that's only the few I can name off the top of my head, Dobbo.

I'LL wait. Bitch.

To be fair, this time he's only referring to movie female characters, so not all of those count.

Even then, that only takes out three of those. I was trying to branch out even further to show that it goes beyond movies.

I'm genuinely curious to see how Dobbo refutes Ripley, a character that not only set the standard for excellent female characters in film, but is still consistently beloved by the masses after all these years.

Well. Resurrection...

But generally the refutation is to go "What is that ALL?!", moving the goalposts from 'there aren't any' to 'there aren't enough no matter how many you cite'.
 
Resurrection didn't happen in my mind.

Just like Prometheus, Covenant, The Predator and both AVPs.

Eh the first AvP wasn't entirely awful, having the Very Moral Female Protagonist be anti-gun for #woke points was exceptionally moronic but it had Aliens fighting Predators so you get what you came for. The second one was more of a "What the fuck?" to be sure.
 
I really could name a lot more, not just from movies but from books and comics too. You'd be surprised how many female characters are out there. But Dobson won't listen. For as much as he slobbers all over lesbians and muh stronk wahmen, he refuses to believe they exist when you present them to him.

A character is defined by more than their gender. Personally, I don't like seeing my gender be represented by lame, sue-esque wastes of space that have everything handed to them. I'd rather see a female character that's vulnerable but is able to overcome the odds through hard work and courage in the face of fear. That's way more empowering to watch than Rey piloting the Falcon better than Han or Bitchface Mcgee saying something smug before effortlessly punching someone. It's so false and insincere and the audience can sense it no matter how many twitter seals bark and clap their hands over it.

Yeah, he did the same thing a while back with female video game characters.

I swear if Captain Marvel just shows up in Endgame and beats Thanos (a villain who knocked the fuck outta the Hulk with just a few well placed hits) without breaking a sweat I'm walking out of the theater.
