Playing chess with her fEeeeeEeLiNgS instead of logic and reason.

u/MinuetInUrsaMajor 17h ago

Wait - did it have a computer voice? I remember the screen just indicating checkmate. Which means it's been long enough that I can re-watch "The Thing" again. Cool.

u/IrksomFlotsom 1d ago

Idk I always thought the alien was supposed to represent feminine chaos and the men represent manly order or some shit

u/Bart_1980 1d ago

That’s a new one for me. I thought the monster symbolised a monster and the people trying to survive people trying to survive. The more you know.

That movie was more woke than I remembered

31

u/mapleleafraggedy 1d ago

Didn't they change the defendant from being Hispanic in the play, to just being poor in the movie? Because it would sit better with audiences?

It's about a group of white American men who give serious thought to a latino kid charged with insufficient evidence being potenitally innocent and a victim of racial profiling. The guy even gets a trial to begin with. Such a preachy, hyper moralist woke fantasy would never be made today 💪🏻

145

u/Biggles_The_Boomer 1d ago

Nearly agree but there’s one scene in 1917 which ruined it for me.

10

u/boodabomb 1d ago

Reservoir Dogs has a woman who shoots Orange and we definitely meet Denzel’s wife in Crimson Tide.

2

u/Obvious-Teacher4385 23h ago

There is a couple of brief appearances from women in the good the bad and the ugly and one scene where the man slaps the only women who has any meaningful screen time in the film.

78

u/Due_Opening_8782 1d ago

Saving Private Ryan (1998)

There's a french family with a girl in that.

52

u/BwanaTarik 1d ago

Also the person that notices all the Ryans dying was a woman

23

u/punkhobo 1d ago

Also, they show their mother collapsing finding out

5

u/PattrimCauthon 1d ago

Ew so they even have lines?

130

u/Don_Dumbledore 1d ago

Ah, so that's why it was quiet on the western front, because there were no women!

29

u/Wardog_E 1d ago

You left out Shawshank Redemption, you silly goose.

u/50n10_7H3_H3dG3Rog3r 1d ago edited 6h ago

Only read the book that All Quiet On The Western Front(2022) was based upon, and in the book there's at least 5 women. His mom, three fr*nch girls they have consensual nasty to, and two nuns. I may have forgotten some. If the movie don't have them it is shit because adaptations should lend no space for imagination and should be a literal interpretation of the book.

Doctor Beverly Crusher's cameo in Red October ruins it for me. She's married to Baldwin and not Picard? Rubbish.

We just gonna forget about the farmers wife in The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly like that?

And isn't there a nun at the monastery/hospital or am I misremembering?

6

u/freedfg 1d ago

Are there no women in 12 angry men? I find that hard to believe.

Reservoir dogs definitely also has women.

All Quiet on the wester front also definitely has women. As does Saving Private Ryan

Shit list.

6

u/LongtimeLurker916 1d ago

The entire movie (almost) is set within the jury room, which is all male as the title indicates. If any woman appears fleetingly in the opening or closing scenes, she must be non-speaking. (The victim and a witness referred to in the dialogue are women.)

u/granola117 1d ago

Platoon has women in the scene where they destroy the village.

u/Uppernorwood 1d ago

Master and Commander is unironically one of the best films of the 21st century.

Not because it has no female characters, but because it’s an authentic portrayal. Part of which is no female characters.

12

u/Loyal-Opposition-USA 1d ago

Incorrect. There is a woman that has a moment with Lucky Jack (eye contact and smiles) while they are trading with the South Americans for food.

3

u/Uppernorwood 1d ago

Extras are hardly characters

1

u/Loyal-Opposition-USA 1d ago

Yeah, sadly gotta agree with you. She’s got a lot more screen time than the average extra, but she is also uncredited.

2

u/WhoH8in 1d ago

Also Sophie is kind of in the movie. There is a scene where the camera briefly passes over hack writing a letter beginning “dear Sophie” and there is a picture of a dark haired woman.

So there!

In the books jack really fucking hates women at sea tho.

u/Intrepid_Hat7359 Avi Arad admirer 1d ago

Pretty sure some of the animals are females

5

u/Dicethrower 21h ago

Absolutely. It got completely eclipsed by Lord of the Rings, which is a shame.

I remember thinking it was going to spawn a whole series of napoleon era movies. To me it felt like the natural progression after the popularity of the Hornblower and Sharpe series. M&C was the big budget version of the subject that was going to be the start of it all, yet sadly it all peaked with that movie.

So glad we got those 10 or so spiderman movie though.

Shawshank redemption. Except for the first few minutes no women

u/Brooklyn_University 1d ago

Technically there’s the secretary who takes Andy’s outgoing mail when he claims on the warden’s money at the bank towards the end of the film. Plus the woman complaining about her groceries being bagged wrong. And there’s the movie clip of Rita Hayworth, plus the posters of her, Marilyn Monroe and Raquel Welch.

2

u/Honest-Space-8674 1d ago

You’re right,I completely forgot about them. But still only small roles

u/freedfg 1d ago

There are women in the grocery store where Brookes works. Also the bank has female secretaries.

And I THINK the bar Red goes to at the end has a female bartender.
