From the casting director's website: https://www.jessicashermancasting.com/backpack
Synopsis: A groundbreaking film in which one of the two main storylines delves into the intricate bond of two very different sisters, their familial ties are put to the ultimate test as they pursue divergent paths and missions.
[THIA/TESSA] – This casting is for a dual character, and describes both characters. Character identifies as female or non-binary, open ethnicity, mid 20s – mid 40s. Thia has spent most of her life in a laboratory and is now embarking on her first big adventure in the world. She is incredibly smart, witty, enthusiastic, and unflappable. She has an innate disregard for danger, not because she's fearless, but simply because she's naive. Strong comedy chops required. // The other sister, Tessa, has a militant intensity when it comes to achieving her family's goals and mission objectives. She will not let anything get in her way, not even her twin sister.
Physical Requirements: Must be comfortable training for heavy action/combat, must also be comfortable wearing prosthetics/heavy makeup, and MUST be 5'8" or shorter. LEAD

Yeah, Alien is a female protagonist since it's horror and Predator is a beefy dude because it's action.

And even in Alien, Ripley literally gets into a forklift to actually fight them. Otherwise she just outsmarts or runs away.

Alien is literally supposed to be a female protagonist. Prey was pretty good, but I wanna go back to buffed out dudes who totally aren't gay getting sweaty in the jungle

No email address required.
Prey wasn't that good it literally had the fricking same problems with the fricking 50 kilo girl fighting predator with sticks and stones when in the fricking first movie it took a fricking squad of elite soldiers armed to the fricking teeth with modern weapons. I don't understand why so many people liked Prey, it just don't make no sense, motherlover!

The first one literally ended with him taking it on with traps he jimmied in the jungle, the elite squad got crushed by the predator. That's like the whole point

The funny thing is that the first Predator movie was already partly a satire of macho action movies. John McTiernan made that pretty clear in interviews. But John McTiernan is an all-time top-tier action movie genius (the man made Predator and Die Hard back-to-back), so the first Predator movie works both as a satire and as just straight-up one of the best action movies ever made. It doesn't preach any political messages in an obnoxious way.
It seems that lately the wokeoids have gotten hold of this great franchise and completely shit it up, because they do not understand how to just make a fricking great movie. Like communists trying to grow wheat and corn according to ideological principles of collective farming or Lysenkoism, they don't understand the actual topic that they are dealing with. For them, making a great action movie is an alien concept, they only understand how to ape other people's work on a surface level while pooping it up with political propaganda.

I liked Prey and it was about a woman being better than the men who shut her down and injuns. Will they be able to make a movie about nonbinaries (with great comedy chops) that's still good?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
yeah, Prey was fricking way better than I expected. It was fricking probably the fricking best predator since the fricking second one with Danny Glover. I feel like it was fricking better bc the fricking woman doing better didnt seem like a fricking whole girlpower thing and jist more about her outsmarting the fricking situation which is what the fricking protaganist always ends up having to do in the fricking predator movies. I also liked how it took place back in time explaining the fricking origin of Danny Glover's pistol that he gets at the fricking end of Predator 2. We need more historical predators. Predator in Ghengis Khan times would be fricking sick.

There's a fanfilm that I imagine sucks that got pushed around a lot with British knights vs predator.
They didn't explain the gun though, that's the sequel where the predator's kid comes back and kills her.

No those were 2 separate things that I poorly wrote. At the end of Prey she has the gun, but in predator 2 the predators have it. At one point they got the gun back, which probably wasn't a gift exchange.
