I’m on to ‘intimidating woman’ as something I’d like to see in a movie.

I just watched Red Sonja and, while I thought the movie 99% terrible with uninspired dialogue, I really loved this very last scene. This is after she beat the badguys and saved the world, so she is in total boss mode. I realized I’d love to watch an entire movie like this last scene; an intimidating woman. Action and pwning people.

What also comes to mind is The Expendables

How Stalone wants to portray ‘the manliest superboss’. I’d love to see this concept but with a female character; a woman that is ‘the manliest superboss’. I know yall hate Gina Caranno since she’s on the trump side, but her character in mandalorian comes to mind as one I know fulfilling this role. She’s big and tough and intimidating and plays it.

Any movies or shows with an ‘intimidating woman’?

      The new age Evil Dead movies are some of my favorites. Definitely underappreciated I feel like.
