The role of women in Hollywood

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

The role of women in Hollywood

Post by Leisher »

Guy crushes Michael Bay for sexism.

Sex sells. That's a fact.

Is Bay really a lecherous creep or someone who knows he's shooting things the audience will like?

And I'm not implying all women are good for is being sex symbols. After all, the Magic Mike movies didn't sell tickets because of the plot. I'm wondering if we really should be eliminating sex appeal? I don't think so, and I don't think you'll ever be able to do so.

As great as it is that women are now featured players (and honestly have been for quite some time now), men will still be attracted to them and vice versa.

I guess Fifty Shades of Twilight was also popular for the plot, setting, and character development.
