I think I got warned for talking about the new Terminator like this.

You bigot

How is Terminator Dark Fate an SJW movie? Because it awkwardly in one three minute scene goes on about how women can be leaders?

Because 1) I don't think 3 minutes make a movie, and 2) other than that the only thing I can see is "omg it has women being cool, that's the job of men!"


That seems to be the new set definition of a "SJW movie" at this point. If a woman is anything more than a cardboard cutout with boobs, it's SJW, apparently.

Thats more of an unrealistic expectation of having women be the starring roles and expecting everyone to watch it just because of that with no regard of the actual quality of the movie.

What Hollywood doesnt seem to realise is that

Women being the main characters in a GOOD movie - yes!!

Women being the main characters in a BAD movie - no!!

I would define SJW movie as a movie that's more concerned with pushing a "message" than with audience's entertainment.

So almost by definition they tend to fail because they're just not fun to watch.


Damn so the patriot, the last samurai, the dark night, Coraline, interstellar, and pretty much every movie thats not a comedy, horror, or romance are all SJW films, damn, thats news to me.

That also makes something like Passion of the Christ the most SJW film ever.

Charlie's Angels in 2000 was the 12th highest grossing film of that year. I'd be intrigued to know if it's deemed an "SJW" movie because all the leads were female, or not an "SJW" movie because it made nearly three times its budget. Which doesn't make a definition of an "SJW movie" any clearer.

They killed off John and basically replaced him with a woman that fills in exact same role he does as resistance leader. What was the point of doing that if they couldn't take it in a new direction?

You're assuming they didn't attempt that, which seems to me to be exactly the reason they did that. To try and differentiate it from Terminator 3. It's not a particularly well-written movie.
