2. A Female Led Genre-Comedy Isn’t the WORST Thing in the World

I love genre comedy. A lot. Shaun of the Dead, Cabin in the Woods, Hot Fuzz, heck, some would even consider Back to the Future in this category, these are some of my favorite movies of all time. And having one of these granting greater representation to women as a whole? That’s pretty cool.

I’ve seen so much outpouring of love for this movie from women of all ages, happy that someone made an asskicking comedic film designed as their power fantasy for once. And that doesn’t mean us dudes can’t enjoy it. Far from it, women have been loving masculine power fantasies for decades. I mean, look at the massive female following the MCU has cultivated.

But more than anything, I want new stories. And letting more people who aren’t straight cis white dudes take center stage means way more types of stories we can tell. And that doesn’t mean we stop getting stories about straight cis white dudes, it just means we get to also have cool, fun films about other people too. How is anyone anywhere offended by that? I actually don’t understand it.

I just want more good, fresh movies. And diversity of voices helps with that.
