Reply to: Characters You're Sick Of? by Fleur
I'm sick of the tough girl who can kick the bad guy's ass even though she only weighs 100 lbs and has absolutely no muscle mass.

I've seen a lot of this pandering BS in movies lately, and it's ridiculous. If you're going to cast a woman who could beat the ever loving crap out of a man, make her 6'2" with MUSCLES. Don't make her Scarlett Johansson or Sarah Michelle Gellar, mmmkaay?

I'm also getting sick of the creepy, precocious child. This is a staple in horror movies, and it's not scary, it's LAME. Enough, already.
