7 Badass Female Characters in 2019/20 Films

There has been a problem with female representation in films in the past and lately it's been getting better. Here are 7 recent films that have female leads and are amazing, badass films. P.S. there might be spoilers on some of these.

Grace Le Domas (Ready or Not)

Giphy

The fact that Grace survived a murder game of hide and seek all in a wedding dress... is badass in itself. It's a house full of people against just her and she still kicks ass. I'm not much of a horror movie person but this one was worth the watch because of the badass main character. Grace Le Domas became a badass aesthetic with this movie.

Anna (Anna)

MakeAGif

Anna has that beautiful killer aesthetic to her. She seems delicate and pretty but she is deadly. Anna becomes one of the most feared assassins and deals with both the Russians and the Americans. Some of the action sequences she does in the film is badass and unique which makes sense because that is director Luc Besson's style.

Haley Keller (Crawl)

AminoApps

A hurricane hits and drags in gigantic Alligator's from an Alligator farm and now Haley has to both rescue her father and herself. She relies on her swimming techniques and her ability to fight. Haley is a badass survivor in this movie that is filled with suspense and gore. This movie will keep you at the edge of your seat and watch in awe as Haley takes on a bunch of huge alligators.

Stephanie Patrick (The Rhythm Section)

Buzzfeed

Stephanie is someone who spirals after experiencing the loss of her entire family. After she finds out it wasn't an accident she plans revenge to punish everyone responsible for her families death by joining a former CIA agent. Stephanie's character shows the work one has to go through to learn how to fight and become who she is. It also shows the effect of tragedy. Stephanie is a badass character who isn't perfect and has been through a lot.

Women of Hustlers

Giphy

Hustlers is filled with badass female characters so it is hard to pick one. This ends with tragedy but in the beginning it is a badass film about a group of women making shady money to create better lives for themselves. Ramona is unapologetic badass and Destiny is a sweetheart who will do whatever she can for those she loves. Annabelle and Mercedes add to their group and are equally as badass.

Women of Birds of Prey

Giphy

Birds of Prey is another film with multiple badass characters. The infamous Harley Quinn, Huntress, Black Canary, Renee and Cassandra. They all have interesting stories and are all unique. Each character is so badass and it created one of the best comic book movies. Each role was chosen perfectly.

Women of Charlie's Angels

Popsugar

Lastly, Charlie's Angels had great action sequences, comedy and badass women. Sabina, Elena, Jane and Bosley are badass female characters that young girls can look up to. The cast was chosen perfectly and everyone brought something to the movie because each character is unique.

2019 and 2020 are good years for some iconic female lead films and we are hoping for more in the future. We are suckers for that great female representation in movies. Stay badass ladies.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
