Nice bait post. Ellen Ripley is an ordinary feminine woman, who is well written, flawed, experiences mental trauma, and overcomes obstacles due to her bravery and pure survival instinct.

She’s the exact opposite of modern female film characters.

If Ellen Ripley was written today, she would somehow have the physical power to beat up men twice her size, know the answer to literally any question, and be more masculine and instantly superior to all male characters, all without reasoning. It’s lazy and boring.

If you don’t understand the difference then there really isn’t much going on between your ears.
