#it also occurred to me that she is one of the few female protagonists in the action movies i’ve seen that has actually been useful #AND witty #after watching indiana jones and seeing all those swooning damsels evy is pretty fucking refreshing #she’s girly but she’s allowed #because she’s evy motherfucking carnahan #AND SHE… IS A LIBRARIAN.
^ THIS#Evie is an action herione who gets to be funny and dorky and goofy and beautiful and smart and EFFECTIVE
YES! To all those things. Her history is explained while everyone else has a blank slate of a past. The film starts with her. The film’s plot is moved forward by HER actions (sparing Rick’s life/reading from the book)
She also gets scared and that’s totally okay. EVERYONE is scared. EVERYONE screams and I never get the sense that she is the victim in a horror film despite the similarities with slasher flicks (the villian’s obsession with her). She doesn’t fight physically (but there’s no wrong way to be a girl and not being a fighter doesn’t mean yuo are not strong) instead she uses her mind/translating skills to tell Jonathan that it’s a STORK, goddammit!
