Re: OP here with Question

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, what the above posters say: female characters get far more shit than male ones, so many people are more protective of them.

My personal anecdote: I don't care much for Tauriel in "The Hobbit". I think she's unnecessary, especially given her role as love interest for Kili/Legolas.

HOWEVER I also recognise that the writers/director/actress took a pretty big risk in inserting an OC into an adaptation, and I agree with their claims that it's unfair for young girls to watch a 2+ hour movie and not have a female character involved in the proceedings.

So I don't feel any particular need or desire to write a large meta about why Tauriel doesn't work for me. Because a) she's probably getting enough shit elsewhere, and b) I recognise that she's important to a lot of other people, and c) hopefully she'll led to other female characters in other franchises who DON'T exist as love interests.
