    I’ve seen and recommend Thelma and Louise.
    I don’t consider Mad Max: Fury Road to have stellar performances…
    Lady Bird? First thought was Lady Hawk…
    The Matrix? Trinity kicked ass, yes, but is not the lead.
    The Silence of The Lambs? Jodie Foster was great, yes.

    Don’t know the others.

      See? Barely five minutes of work and we’ve found common ground on characters besides Sarah and Ripley ;)

      But it makes one wonder why only those two are ever mentioned. Surely the guy must have at least watched The Silence of The Lambs…

          But why limit oneself to those two? If I wanted better female characters, I’d make it a point to name as many as I can so that I can say: “see? It’s not that hard.”
