Here's one of my biggest pet peeves when it comes to television:
female leads becoming pregnant
as a means of
character development, having the baby, and then never seeing the baby ever
again.
Listen, there's simply nothing like watching Tom Cruise get cucked — nothing quite like seeing him get knocked down a peg, be it by his then - wife Nicole Kidman and her fantasies of sleeping with other men (Eyes Wide Shut), or by a
female interviewer scrutinizing his
character's misogynistic egomania up close (Magnolia), or by genre itself,
as in Edge of Tomorrow, where we get to see him die over and over
again, something that's distinctly fun because of the indomitable meta - prowess of its star.
If you're part of the world's non-male population who likes to play
as non-male
characters in video games, then you're out of luck (
again): Assassin's Creed Unity will not feature
female playable
characters in cooperative mode.
