re: Interesting video on Rey and the devolution of female characters in general

It is a fantasy. I can buy a woman hero with flaws as easily

What flaws? That's like the opposite of what I posted.

There are no flaws, that's the problem. They're not remotely genuine or real either as woman or a human being to boot.

It's become all fantasy now - and the video's point is - that's not fricking interesting...why should we care about a character that is invincible and out of thin air.

That's why people on here often complain about Superman - he has no flaws except Kryptonite - so even though it's fantasy - fantasy still has to have REAL tension and DRAMA or A JOURNEY on you got there...even BATMAN had a journey...Batman Begins...dude had to train.

Not just wake up one day - oh look, I'm a Jedi master.

Cool.
