@L0RDbuckethead - God, those movies were SO bad. Especially the dumpster fire that was the second one. 2 hours of my life I’ll never get back...

@ChangAlang - she kinda reminds me of the older one of the Narnia movies (forget her name)

@SpideyPuffsMJ - if this was something like Ghostbusters 2016 I might agree with you, but Charlie's Angels is an existing property with history. The franchise is about female action hero spies. That's always been the story. Dont make this a Social Justice issue when it completely doesn't need to be. And there are plenty of unbelievable over the top male lead action movies that you dont make Social Justice issues out of. Let women play too. Who [frick]ing cares? It's just a movie bro.

People like you hurt arguments about equality. Like females are the only genders producing half baked and poorly conceived action movies... men have been staring in shit action movies since forever, now women get a few and it's this huge scheme and feelings driven and political? Lol give me a break.

@SpideyPuffsMJ - I don't know man haha I just think you're making something that isn't political political. No one "asks" for most movies that get made. Studios have recognizable IPs, and make movies with those recognizable IPs, and reboot them all the time.

@SpideyPuffsMJ - just a little inside scoop, Bruce Willis cant really do John Mcclane shit. Arnold Schwarzenegger cant really do Dutch or Terminator shit. Sylvester Stallone cant box like Rocky or go on killing rampages like Rambo. Surprise surprise, its actually all just acting and none of those male leads are ingenuous and deserving of their characters accolades, it's just a role and it's still pretending. The only reason you feel females are undeserving is because you a little bit sexist bruh. This would be an issue for you if you weren't. It's ok, dont tense up upon the realization that you have a sexist double standard. Its something society has conditioned us to see without us being aware. But ignorance is not an excuse, now it's time to challenge your notion of self and question why you feel only men can play pretend action stars and do inhumanly impossible shit. There are female soldiers in the real world, female spies, female mixed martial artists, female marksmen, female body builders, female cops, female detectives, female heroes. Women just [frick]ing headlining Wrestlemania and had the most interesting storyline and fight in the entire WWE for gods sake. Females are very capable and very deserving. They are only getting what they deserve, and if they want to make basic action movies or top level action movies or whatever movies that guys make... good on them. Especially when they arent stealing a franchise from existing characters like Ghostbusters 2016, I'm all for this Charlie's Angels movie and hope it's good, because I have no reason to hope that it's bad.

@DillonEnnis - thank you for also being the voice of reason. Most movies aren't asked for, and Studios definitely dont let once popular properties collect dust forever when they have someone pitch a script they think will make money. Hollywood is a business and its incredibly short sighted to think a majority of these big budget films are made with complete artistic integrity. This is definitely not a social issue but clearly he is upset by women led action movies coming out these days because hes tired of seeing women get to do the same shit men have been doing since always. "It just feels forced"... right cuz the Transporter movies or Fast and Furious movies are super believable and only tracks when men do that stuff... but I draw the line if it's a woman riding a motorcycle out of a skyscraper and jumping onto a helicopter and killing everyone inside and diving to safety just before crashing it into the building... only men can believably so that stuff. My suspension of disbelief doesn't work for females. I'm not sexist though, dont be mean to me.

@SpideyPuffsMJ - Why does everyone think men are somehow stuck in the 1950's

Probably from all the men that publicly act like they're stuck in the 1950s.

@PTM - clearly he is upset by women led action movies coming out these days because hes tired of seeing women get to do the same shit men have been doing since always. "It just feels forced"... right cuz the Transporter movies or Fast and Furious movies are super believable and only tracks when men do that stuff... but I draw the line if it's a woman riding a motorcycle"

Dude I neeeeever said any of that. I feel like you missed my point completely and took it for osme anti-SJW men's rights speech. I'm just tired of people having to JUSTIFY a dumb action movie led by females as anything other than making a dumb action movie. It's the publications treat these films and their directors too, and I'm on this site a little too much. But, no, I'm not offended by seeing women beat men up or ride motorcycles, it's not my suspension of disbelief not working. I genuinely look forward to the day when these kinda films come and go on their own merit and don't have to justify why they're being made, like the Expendables. When people don't have to freak out and think they have to educate everyone that women can have freedom on screen...of course they can.

@SpideyPuffsMJ - dude, you are completely changing your argument because you realized what you said was sexist and idiotic. First you were crying fowl because they are forcing women into action movies to advance an agenda because that's what Hollywood is all about, female empowerment and unearned praise.

"...trope of putting a small group of women together for a cast in some gender-defying typically male-dominated genre film and the entire premise being based on the people working on it heaping unearned praise on the characters/actresses. It's starting to get tired."

Your words, not mine.

Now because we called you out on that, you flip the script to say it just looks like a bad movie and you can criticize it if you want and why does everyone think men are somehow stuck in the 1950's?

"I'm actually starting to see this trope of putting a small group of women together for a cast in some gender-defying typically male-dominated genre film and the entire premise being based on the people working on it heaping unearned praise on the characters/actresses. It's starting to get tired."

Comments like THAT are why people think men are stuck in the 1950's. And I'll soapbox towards dumb ass comments like yours till I'm [frick]ing blue in the face. Level up your thinking man.

@SpideyPuffsMJ - I don't know if you're upset because they are making a female-centric action film? Or are you upset because the movie will suck because you think it will? Your opinion and point you're making are quite negative and misogynistic. The reason they are making it and will continue to make female action films is that they can be good stories and entertaining. Too bad they will also make female empowerment films because of past treatment and a male-dominated industry that had a similar underlying attitude like yours that tend to always put women in a box telling them what they can and cannot do. If you read the energy in how you delivered your initial comment you will see how wrong it is if you replaced the word male and female and then you will see your misogyny. And if a movie is really disingenuous and not so good just like some that are made, then you can have your critique. But just let women flourish and make an action movie and chill bro...Even if we have wack ones. I never have seen the Ghostbusters reboot yet not because of a woman gender bender cast but because someone said it sucked lol
