A lot of woman are just bitchy I find.

She might as well have called it 700 it’s a direct rip off really

Depends. Not all can be pull off bad ass. This doesn’t really look good.

I also hope the industry realizes Penelope Cruz is not latina and stops giving her latinx roles.

Make watchable movies then

Miss Theron already knows it

And hopefully hire more women and of color that aren’t light skin only or small.

...we’re really still out here censoring the word ass in 2020? Ok.

Damn right they are.

It’s being released in January. Case closed.
