Hollywood is starting to show a trend, and that's remaking movies with a "woke" female cast and heavy empowerment vibe. I get it, but is it really empowering to retrace the same lines originally drawn by men? I hate remakes by default, but now I feel I have to tiptoe around criticizing it for being an intellectually hollow cash grab lest I be branded problematic. Anyone who saw the new Mad Max would agree that Charlize Theron was terrific as a strong female lead, and there have been a number of great movies made by female directors(Lost in Translation, Hurt Locker, Triumph of the Will, etc) The issue is, remakes suck(Karate Kid, Clash of the Titans, Conan) and putting in a female cast is the laziest way to try and revive a successful franchise. I think these ladies should just say no.

I wanna watch return of the king remake with all women and then when the witch-queen of Angmar says "no woman can kill me" eowyn takes off her armor and shows she's actually undergone a sex change and says "I am no woman"

A true representation for transgender rights.

For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

Executives jerk off continuously to the thought of familiar franchises and name recognition. They also love the attention going all female guves them because two warring factions of internet morons cannot stop having incredibly drawn out battles over this. So from their perspective there is 0 reason to stop doing this ever.

Also they do not care about making a "good" movie. At all. Period. Butts in seats is their sole concern. They would film a locked off frame of a dog turd for 2 hours if you could convince them it would bring in a large audience.
