    NOTHING justifies what Wanda did to the people of Westview. She is an evil villain, who by the end of the story evolved into a bigger threat. All for her selfish desires. Monica was bad too, a bigger hypocrite, for validating an enslaver. In reality, Director Hayward did everything within jurisdiction to protect the world from a well-known terrorist with a history of working with Ultron, murdering hundreds in Lagos, and violating international Sokovia Accords. They only made Hayward the villain, because they had to make the white man in power evil to allude to Donald Trump. As for Hayward shooting the twins, so what? Those shitty kids attacked his soldiers FIRST. It was very justified for Hayward to shoot those super powered FAKE beings. Wanda was never a hero, and we shouldn't root for her.

      Of course it isn't justifiable. Sometimes I really don't get these movie critique echo chambers.
      It's like claiming infinity war is justifying mass genocide because Thanos is the quasi-protagonist and some people acknowledge his cause.

    The reason why the original Mulan is so good is because it's a story about a girl making a sacrifice to save her father and overcoming real obstacles in the army despite being a woman. She has real strengths and weaknesses and her entire motivation to be a soldier was just so her father wouldn't have to go and die in war. The new one or just these modern "strong female characters" give these females bad attitudes and make them unrealistically OP or downright unrelatable. They rarely have any weaknesses or flaws and clown the entire male cast every chance they get. Perfect example is Rey from the new Star Wars who is literally a mary sue because she has no flaws, never loses a fight, and clowns characters that should be more competent than her in certain areas...such as Luke in being a Jedi, Poe at being a pilot, and Han at even understanding the Millenium Falcon.

    I liked your reaction to this. To answer one of your questions, "Who is writing this $%^$?". Well the sad reality is very young people who have not had enough life experience to develop the wisdom necessary to intelligently write a deep and complex character and script. I have been a lighting tech & photographer for over 25 years and this is just one of those things I have noticed in the productions I have worked on. There is defiantly a correlation between the age of the writers and the depth of their characters and scripts. It is hard to put real life experience and the emotions it evokes if you have not gone threw and overcome deep personal challenges. Have a great day and keep doing what your doing.

      @@CelticVictory Yes it is the perfect example because not only is it the most expensive show ever produced, it got raving reviews from the Hollywood loons and critics. Marvel and Lucas films have done the same thing by recruiting "new blood" from companies like Bad Robot. Netflix has also brought in unaccredited nobodies for a bunch of their failed shows.
      It is not about the experience the people have, it is about if their political debauchery matches the studio loons like Kathleen Kennedy. The franchises they keep screwing up should be easy wins due to an already established fan base, if they stick to the original lore they had to begin with, but keep screwing them up with bad writers who do not understand the material, or simply want to change it to fit their world views instead of the original authors.

    "Modern movies," only focuses on blockbusters which is a very small percentage of the yearly movie slate.
    His entire claim can be destroyed before you even start the video. And I guarantee if Sarah Connors or Ridley were 2022 characters, they'd be labelled as "wOkE." One of the most intellectually dishonest video essays about movies arguably ever.
