in my experience whenever someone refers to a "strong-willed woman" in some big hollywood film it's in reference to a horribly written psycho sex idol. BDSM undertones are also often present
that's what I was saying when we were hating on James Cameron. Like the whole Sarah Connor character I am strong tender loving mother but hold on a sec I have to break out of this asylum and rip and bunch of guy's balls off to get the access code. But I was watching that hour-long Avatar review and he was making a point how the Navi run the entire gamut from like child-like cute Disney cartoon animal qualities which will sell toys to sexual alluring features that a small subset of the population will make porn of. And it seems like Sarah Connor is sort of the same thing like heartwarming story about a mother who will do anything to protect her son/always believe in him etc. but at the same time lots of scenes where she beats up on men fanservice for s+m people. But then again I haven't seen the movie in a while maybe it's not so bad but I still think there's enough suggestion there it's like the most sacharrine-sweet good wholesome values and hardcore pornography somehow simultaneously at the same time (republicans like the movie)
and it seemed like there was some fundamentally wrong stuff going on in True Lies but I haven't really seen the whole movie
also what did robert de niro do
did Human Centipede even SELL TICKETS at all or is it one of those things that's internet famous and no real people have watched it anyway so I guess controversy didn't work
Edit: I remember I had a Shakespeare class and the prof talked about it like waaay too much but still I was surprised how many sexual undertones/double entendres there were and probably like fart jokes too it's like shakespeare was the James Cameron of his time total fucking trash to entertain the masses and the subtext is like yeah man so deep 4/20 really must do more research on it but did any shakespeare play really say anything original or is it like first time a mainstream movie has elements of symbolism/existentalism everybody's like woaaah even though somebody thought and wrote about every thematic element for the first time thousands of years ago
