This movie was a perfect storm of stupidity, narcissism, incompetence, and Hollywood. Maybe now we can have normal movies again written with nuanced women like Ripley, Sarah Connor, Beatrix Kiddo, and Trinity, instead of this atrocious Mary Sue slop.

If you consider that for every one person who recognises it as Mary sue slop, there are millions who like projecting their victim complex on those characters. The problem is not the industry, it's the audience that fuels it.

What audience lol
