It's all Random

The Old Guard doesn’t sexualize the men either. The men are VERY nice to look at, but they haven’t been put through the Hollywood body-building treatment. I mean, have you read what Hugh Jackman went through to bulk up and be Wolverine? Daily hours-long grueling workouts combined with a high-protein diet of pretty much nothing but boiled chicken, then days of dehydration before a scene shoot because being dehydrated makes your muscles stand out more.

There was none of that in The Old Guard. When Joe and Nicky have their shirts off, this is what they look like:

Normal muscle definition, not body-builders; no veins lining their muscles because they’re not dehydrated. Then, as soon as they’re freed, the first thing they do is put shirts on to fight their way out of the facility. This is Joe and Nicky ten seconds after Andy unstraps them:

I love the way this movie treats their stars. The focus is on the emotions, on the people as human beings, and they aren’t fetishized.

and you’re not going to meet and marry someone

and that’s fine

and if marriage happens, it happens. and it’s not the next big ticket to check off in life’s checklist

because not everyone meets someone they want to marry. and that’s normal

More: Scream is arguably the most successful of the “meta-horror” movies, a type of film that is extremely self-aware of horror genre conventions and tropes. The franchise, spanning 4 films in total, has grossed over $600m worldwide — but it’s the 5th film starring a squirrel that has captured our hearts… 

- Britney for making fun of her when she had her breakdown

- Monica Lewinski for judging her when she was a 22year old temp sexually assaulted by the most powerful man in the world

- Ke$ha for ever thinking she was trashy when all she wanted to do was make party music

- Kristen Stewart for ever thinking she was dumb when she’s actually one of the coolest people ever

- Megan Fox for ever thinking she was just a slut when actually she was an actress being harassed by her employer. 

- Hating all the women who made a career out of having a hot body. Being is shape is hard, beauty is a weapon and auto promotion is hard work. 

- All the Mary-Sues, who exist because young girls everywhere want to be part of a story they love so much

- All the female characters I ever snobbed because they got in the way of my ship.
