Female stories that I like for International Women’s month

Blog and Video Description:  In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be telling you which female stories that I like for International Women’s month. The list will be of females that represent strong female characters and represent that feminine strength that I want to see in a character. A good female character shows grace but knows how to help those when people need that person. Some of the best female characters that I can name are Ashoka, Rey, Kate Bishop, Kamala Khan, and Carol Danvers. I also think of characters like Diana Prince who is Wonder Woman. I may be missing some characters, but I will talk about that more in this episode. There will not be a ton of pictures, the only pictures I will have will be of a story that I talk about. Thank you for understanding. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

A movie that I like to watch is Noelle and I know Noelle is a Christmas movie, but this character of Noelle is doing her best to help her brother Nick become the next Santa. She is showing him the ropes and he is not getting it. He is not qualified to be Santa as he does not feel that is his calling. Noelle tells him to take the weekend off. He heard what he wanted to hear and decided to go to Phoenix, AZ to teach Yoga. Noelle will realize that she must make this right. She goes to find him like the parable of the Lost sheep. Noelle will realize that he is not cut out to be Santa. Nick tells her you need to be the new Santa. Noelle grew up in this movie, and she realizes that this is her calling.

A series that I like to watch is the Hawkeye series that has Kate Bishop in her debut series, and she is fun to watch. She comes from a well to do family. The Bishops are not just rich, they have a lot of money. Despite her wealthy background, she realizes that her family got involved with a man that is extremely dangerous. His name is Wilson Fisk, and he is the Kingpin. Kate Bishop with the help Clint Barton will defeat Kingpin and his thugs of the Track Suit Mafia. Kate Bishop will get Clint Barton to trust her and realize that she is right for this life of a superhero. She is talented in fencing, martial arts, and archery. She has a lot of talents. With the help of Clint Barton, she can flip a coin to hit objects. That is very cool.

A movie that I enjoying watching is Wonder Woman that came out in 2017. The character of Diana Prince is gracious and strong. She and the character of Steve have a deep connection. She gets to know him and decides to help him. She realizes Ares is stirring the pot to say the least. He is causing humans to want to kill each other. He is the god of war, and this makes this necessary for her to stop him. She realizes that humans are not perfect, but love is the answer, not to hate. This will defeat Ares because she chooses love over hate. Steve will die in this movie, but Diana Prince decides what she must do.

A series that I like is Parallels. Yes, the three main characters are male, but there is a female character. Her name is Roman. Roman and Victor get transported to another universe while Bilal and Sam get transported to another universe. It is no different in the Multiverse in Marvel and DC where there are different parallel universes where characters have similar characteristics but different outcomes. This is what happens here. Victor will believe that he is a monster, and this will cause him to self-destruct. He is about to go into complete despair but Roman stops him and she hugs him, and this causes him to realize he is not alone. This is why Roman is critical. Victor needs her and she makes sure he does not do anything that he regrets. This series only has one season but hopefully it will get a second season.

A series that I like is the first season of Ms. Marvel. She is a character that does not take herself too seriously. Kamala Khan will go to the Avengers convention, and she dresses like Captain Marvel. She will get her powers. She saves Zoe who dresses like Ms. Marvel which is what Carol Danvers dressed like in the earlier versions of the character. Ms. Marvel was her old name. This was not done in the MCU but that is fine. Kamala Khan must go against Kamran’s mother and must stop her and the people who support her before they let something bad happen. Kamran’s mother believes that she and her family can go back home but find out she is wrong. She must stop Kamran’s mother. If they open the portal and release negative energy which can destroy our reality. Kamala Khan must close the portal. She must help Kamran and his powers need to be controlled. This series will have a clip at the end of Season 1 which will lead into the Marvels.

A series that I enjoyed watching is Echo. Echo is a deaf character who is an amputee and of Native American heritage. She had her first appearance on the Hawkeye series. Echo’s real name is Maya Lopez. The actress that plays her is deaf, an amputee and of Native American heritage. Maya Lopez will learn that her pain is not what defines her, it is her heart. She was raised by Wilson Fisk who is Kingpin. She will grow in this series and realize that to defeat Wilson Fisk is not by anger and fear it is with love. She will force Kingpin to face his pain, but he runs from it.

A series that I like to watch is Ashoka where Ashoka Tano is looking for Grand Admiral Thrawn. She believes that there are remnants of the Empire looking for Grand Admiral Thrawn. The reason for the republic to be concerned is that Grand Admiral Thrawn is very smart and if he comes back, he can resurrect the Empire and bring those that are loyal to the Empire. She will go to Sabine Wren to help her find out what the device does. If the device needs to be destroyed to stop Grand Admiral Thrawn from returning, it must be destroyed. Ezra was on the Imperial star destroyer in Rebels and was sent with him to another galaxy. Sabine Wren will be concerned with finding Ezra, and this will cloud her judgement. It is understandable that she would want to find Ezra. Ezra helped to save Ashoka, but Ashoka sees the bigger picture.

A series that I like watching is Secrets of Sulphur Springs. In that series Griffin Campbell moves to Sulphur Springs and he meets Harper. Harper is a strong female character. She kicks the locker, and it opens. They later will find a radio that can take people back in time. When they walk in the bunker that reminds the viewer of a fallout shelter. Fallout shelter is where people go to protect themselves from nuclear fallout.  This is important for people to do this. Griffin and Harper get transported to 1990 and when people thought Savannah to be dead, they find out what happened to her. Savannah ends up in 1960 and this is why people thought that she just vanished. It will make sense. This series has 3 seasons, and it explains what happened to the Tremont property.

A movie that I like watching is the Marvels. I know there are those that may like it or not. This movie shows how women can save the day but also be the main villain. The Marvels have Captain Marvel, Monica Rambeau, and Ms. Marvel goes up against Dar-Ben. Dar-Ben is looking to restore the Cree world of Hala. She wants to make Captain Marvel pay for destroying the Supreme Intelligence. She is stealing resources, and it will take Carol Danvers, Monica Rambeau, and Kamala Khan to defeat her.  There will be a short appearance of Kate Bishop in the movie. That was cool to see.

A series that I like watching is iCarly that came out in 2007. I have seen all the first season expect the last two episodes. I like the combination of Carly and Sam in this series. They are fun to watch, and they use comedy when they do their web series. Yes, this is a fictional series. Freddie is the camera man and the tech guy. He makes sure the feed goes through the computer, so they can broadcast online. Carly lives with her brother Spencer, and he is a struggling artist. Carly shows strength when Spencer doubts, he should be an artist, but she helps him to realize that he cannot give up on his dream.

The sequel trilogy in Star Wars that starred Rey is a character I like. Rey has a complicated past, but she shows strength, and she knows what she must do. It is the character growth that you want to see in any character. She is one that I like cheering for as she shows the female strength that I like in females. She is gracious but knows the difference between right and wrong. She finds out she is part of a family that is not very well liked. She ends up being the black sheep of that family.

A movie that I recently reviewed which is Double Teamed that came out in 2002 on Disney channel which you can watch on Disney+. I enjoy this movie because it shows Heather and Heidi Burge. They must learn to realize that they are meant to be basketball players. They played at a time when women’s basketball was not a phenomenon. It is not until now that people are more likely to watch women’s basketball. They will later play at Virginia and go to play at WNBA. The movie does an excellent job showing that females can play basketball and that they struggle like any person can.
