Let's be honest.

A good portion of this website's membership consists of backwards-arse people.

This board is one of the better forums at TD.

Ghostbusters wasn't funny. But the hate came in force just when the announcement was made.

Now the ULL fan Henderson is up in arms calling the baseball pitcher show "the worst ever" and several are agreeing.

Ghostbusters got a lot of hate for pushing the women angle and destroying the old universe. Had they just come out and said these were the daughters of the original 4, that would of made me more likely to want to see it instead of just axing the original universe. Then the trailer came out and that ruined any possibility.

It's not the women.

It's shifty actresses/comedians and lack of originality for films.

WTF? I don't hate women. I love women.

Now I don't think a vagina supersedes talent.

There are many many talented and funny women out there who I thoroughly enjoy. I just don't like unfunny women getting roles that they don't deserve.

It's really a stupid idea, though.

Madeline Khan was the finest comic actress the U.S. has produced.

There was a good 5 year stretch where Lacour was my least favorite poster on TD.com.

It's almost as if Lacour's ten year old younger brother got a hold of his account and is now posting in his stead

The problem with Jenny was less than the problem with teh writers of FG - they made every more complicated and more human person suffer enormously for their lack of idiocy. The problem with Skylar is she was a moral out for their own enjoyment of Walter White's evil.

We can find ourselves in the position of empathizing with and enjoying the terrible actions of a villain, but a supporting character signing off on the same returns our sense of normal moral outrage and we punish her as a result (in this case her, it would be a man if the evil lead were the wife).

The gender of both is actually incidental (other than the chauvanism of the lead generally being male). The anger is motivated by how they respectively mistreated a child-like lead and collaborated with an evil character we embraced.

Because many of these movies don't cast women because it's the story line. They cast them specifically to push an agenda. Like JJ Abrams has said he wants more gay characters in future Star Wars movies. WHY?? If that's part of the story like GoT then fine but to set out just to get a checked box it's just dumb.
