(Anonymous) 2013-05-05 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)because um. wow.
Otherwise what she was saying seemed like a valid criticism of the way love interests are slated to function, because:
I don't mean they need a love interest. I mean that a LI needs to fulfill some kind of role that works for the story. Peggy fulfills no role, hence "window dressing". She doesn't feel important to the story, his character, the themes, etc. She was there to help fulfill an imaginary checklist required of all superhero movies.
Sorry I clarify the Lois thing elsewhere: "It makes sense for Superman to have Lois, because Superman is already a humble guy with godlike powers. Lois helps him keep in touch with that human nature". That is the role she fills.
This is basically true, sadly enough, and in one of her earlier comments it seemed like she didn't necessarily like the fact. I don't either, and I hate how a lot of superhero movies do write their female characters and drive romance into them.
It's just the "I demand an apology" crap that really took a left turn at albuquerque.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-05 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)yeah, i was with her too (it seemed more like an observation of the way movies tend to work, not an approval!) until the weird "i don't have to talk to you, if it this was real life i could just walk away, etc." thing
