In case you need something to counterbalance Entertainment Weekly’s assertion that Sarah Connor was a man, check out the Action Heroine Blog-A-Thon from last week. Hosted at Nathaniel R’s Film Experience Blog, it’s a great tribute to all kinds of ass-kicking women in the movies.
A few of my faves from the Blog-A-Thon posts:
- Cat Ballou on Coffee, Coffee, and More Coffee
- Michelle Yeoh: kicking ass in “Supercop” on Collecting Tokens
- ¡Sí, soy trailera! on when i look deep in your eyes
- Warrior Women of Asia on Film Otaku
- Next Tuesday’s Mood on My New Plaid Pants
- She’s a maniac, that’s for sure on Way of Words
- Not all gloom and doom in the Tomb on I am screaming and punching myself
- The Two Ripleys on Cinemathematics
- The Action Heroine Makeover on StinkyLulu
Thanks to Nathaniel for hosting the Blog-A-Thon!
