>every other female-led capeshit is entirely unwatchable (shit like She-Hulk, CW Supergirl and Batwoman, Ironheart, fucking Catwoman, etc)
I seriously don't get it.
Why is it so hard for Hollywood to make a good superhero story with a female lead?

Galdot whatever her name is got fired from being Wonder Woman, so any new Wondy flick will automatically be better

Have you considered not watching female-led capeshit?

>he was filtered by Jessica Jones
it's a good show when you ain't got /co/fags in your ear whining about Bendis. WW2017 was a solid 7, everything else is mediocre or trash

>this godawful show that looks like it's CWshit, has a boring and uninteresting main plot that keeps dragging, where every single character has a collective IQ of 30, and the overhyped main villain is an utter joke is actually good, you're just le mad about Bendis
Jessica Jones fanboys will never cease to amaze me with their shit taste, honestly.

>strong female leads imply role models for little girls
>strong female leads imply primary female demographics
>strong female leads imply a leading actress able to sell the part

>superhero movies use masculine modernist storytelling as narrative caulk
>superhero movies use masculine imagery to buoy insubstantial conflict
>superhero movies use masculinity in general to appeal to failed patriarchy

Put simply, super-heroine movies tend to be half-baked. They're sloppy efforts to take a share of multiple markets, reaching for greatness one-handed and rarely seizing any without tripping over themselves. Saturation has made these schemes nakedly visible, and fatigue has made them totally unappreciated.

If they made a straight-up girls' movie and then laid some basic superhero trappings over it, then at least it would be novel. If they made a quality superhero movie where the protagonist was a woman, they would have a quality cape flick at the end. Trying to hybridize the appeal of two very different traditions into one with all these competing political wavelengths to attune to at the same time just isn't within the range of what a modern film studio is willing to fund.

Well, there's always coomer audience that wants to look at superheroines in sexy outfits, but good luck getting Hollywood to appeal to that in this day and age.

Wonder Woman 1984 is better and the closest thing we got of Reeve's Superman but everyone hated it.

The only cope is pretending that Gunn has ever made anything good.

Not at all, it's a mediocre and shittier attempt to redo The First Avenger which was already incredibly mediocre but in WWI to pretend there's any semblance of originality.
The villains were Schumacher-tier.

Jessica Jones is a piece of shit with awful plot and characters, but Marvel fanboys soiface over it because they never watched anything of actual quality, so a mildly dark tone and themes (present in every low-quality Lifetime movie ever. So groundbreaking, lmao) are enough to make them think they're watching something good and sophisticated. Even though the writing is total trash and all the themes and character motivations are hammered down with a subtlety of a nuke.
