The issue I have with the female characters in recent marvel films is the studio's fear of making them complicated with internal issues to overcome. In the comics, Danvers has PTSD and a drinking problem while Monica's early appearances showed her being quick to anger and issues with authority. In the films, the two characters just have one trait, stoic. To have those characters share the same issues as their comic book counterparts while trying to be good role models to Ms. Marvel would've been an interesting film.

And Hunger Games is just not that popular, it was a phase, that phase is gone. The movie industry as whole is in trouble, people just don't go to the movie that often anymore. Mission Impossible, Fast X, Transformers... where are the activism in that? And all of those flopped. The degree may vary because they each came in very different contexts.

I think instead of thinking male gaze, movie producers should think would this outfit become a popular cosplay outfit ( both male and female). Clearly, the movie version needs to be better quality. The first Harley Quinn outfit was the top female cosplay and Halloween costume for years. Women choose to wear it. That said, it should be for both male and female that producers think differently.

@KaiInMotion 7 месяцев назад

The only actual stars in the new Hunger Games are the adults like Viola Davis and Peter Dinklage, and maybe Hunter Schaffer, but her role was very small and not heavily advertised. I don't know if name brand star power would have even helped. Also worth noting that originally JLaw blew up because of her portrayal of Katniss, she had hype from Winter's Bone but THG made her a household name, she wasn't one before the franchise got rolling.

I think its kind of insulting to keep using the term male gaze. It makes natural male attraction to women sound creepy. It also ignores that both sexes like to see attractive actors in movies.
