6. Good one, or Yvonne Craig

From Batman, a guitly pleasure of mine

9. While I do not completely agree with her

The character of Katniss was different
-was any 'everyone' person just living her life when drawn in
-targeted at younger girls
-not portrayed for 'the male gaze'
-not a super girl type written for men
-allowed to be angry
there are more differences but Katniss was a revelation to many girls and young women

10. Terminator 2, Aliens, The Long Kiss Goodnight...

to name a few. Nice try though. Also, we get butt-hurt about the strangest things.
