Ninja assassins? Nuclear explosives? Blackmail photos of them with whipped cream, a snake, handcuffs, and a hot pink tutu? Alright, I've got nothing. /attempt at humor. :\ Hmmm, let’s see; what can be used to get the Old White Boys’ Network to change?

Ninja assassins?

Nuclear explosives?

Blackmail photos of them with whipped cream, a snake, handcuffs, and a hot pink tutu?

Alright, I’ve got nothing.

Which is sad in itself, but also? This 'exciting' list includes good roles in bad movies, like Iron Lady and The Help. If we limited it to good rolls in good movies... would there be anyone on the list?

I was wondering where my strong female heroes were. Turns out some ole white dudes had them crammed in the back of a closet somewhere. D: No wonder all of Hollywood's movies all have the same old white-guy-saves-the-world-gets-a-hot-chick-who-can't-do-crap-on-her-own plot. It all makes so much sense now!
