Re: Movie Club Discussion!

I'd think that most people that high in the military would be pretty rigid. But I felt he was also pretty open to Louise's ideas. He let her continue to keep her suit off and didn't throw her out on her ass when she did that. He also seemed to genuinely listen to the things he told her.

In regards to aggression, that just seems like a human condition? Humans are a pretty violent species towards things they consider 'other' (including humans with different skin colors).

We also have historical proof of how secretive countries can be towards each other. Just look at the space race. Countries will always fuck over each other if it means protecting themselves.

For the lack of women, there were really only three main characters. Ian, Louise, and Weber. I never really thought of Louise as defined by her motherhood, I saw her as defined by her language skills. That is how she likely saves the world.

It was the unnamed woman, talking to her SO on the project from off-site, who really got me annoyed about the number of women. She was such a stereotype, with all her "I'm so worried" and "you must protect me". It was scriptwriting from the 1950s! But there's no reason why there shouldn't have been female techies (or squaddies) on that site, it's the 21st century after all. So that got a definite "hmph" from me.

To be fair, her husband (boyfriend) is in the military AND working on site with one of the alien ships.
