Not a parent or female so it's not really my place, but yeah Daisy seems like the wrong target for this sort of thing. I feel like this body image type stuff has more to do with sex symbols and media that is clearly trying to present a standard for beauty or sex appeal, whether it's a Victoria's Secret ad or the "hot girlfriend" role in a movie or whatever. That's where it gets dangerous, I think, when that stuff is all focused on a specific type and girls start to get a message that they need to look one particular way or else boys won't like them. Which really has nothing to do with Rey or what she's supposed to be representing for girls in Force Awakens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't really say Hawkeye is either... it's really just Thor/Cap. Stark and Banner being regular shaped guys is part of their reason for being superheroes. Stark needs the suit because he couldn't fight his way out of a terrorist cave without one. And Banner's involuntary Jekyll & Hyde switch makes him a "tragic figure", but he could never do any of that Hulk stuff as just Banner. It's part of why I find Stark and Banner's lab scenes together so appealing. They're really just two nerds who happen to be superheroes. And then there's Steve Rogers' backstory, you're really only left with Thor if you're really pedantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixon Hill 4,232 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 It seems obvious that there's more artistry involved than in the usual garish stuff that a Google search for "space art" would turn up. There's actual texture. They look nothing like the flat composite thing that Alex posted. But then, he didn't see the generic quality of the designs in GOTG either!

A24 4,326 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Sure, there are different levels of execution, but if it doesn't remind you of the concept of space art then there's no hope for you, TGP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is, you can't have the role model. If what they want is that then you need lots of characters who do different things and have varied personalities and appearances. But you can't shoehorn all of that into a single character who happens to be a magical warrior in training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
