Gender isn’t the problem, it’s when you try to make it all about that primarily without giving a damn about the character itself when it becomes the problem

It's when they try to make women men. All of the examples listed above include female leads who fill the role as action heroes while maintaining their femininity. Their motivations are feminine motivations surrounding motherhood, etc, which make them believable. They aren't just cast as women (who are basically just dudes with tits) whose motivations are just being super badass boss bitches.

I mean idk how that not does describe Furiosa.

And Kill Bill is literally female revenge porn. Thats what Tarantino does lately.

but the plots they are stuck in make sense and the action scenes sorta make up for it.
