ParticipantSorry, what I tried to express is:
“Lucy Lawless *looks* like an amazonian warrior, GG doesn’t. It’s not about the costume, the muscles, the fencing, the fx, or being an alleged Israeli Sup…Hypersoldier.”
Damn me and my poor English.
Oh. Sorry for misunderstood you. To me, neither one is really an Amazon, and I am trying to be lenient. For example, I just watched a Japanese scifi, they cast women who are fit but not quite “muscular”. I don’t think they would be able to compete in a physique competition, but I praise them instead of criticizing them. They are trying.
See photo. Also, small fit women are charming in their own ways IMO.

[/quote]What’s the name of the movie?

ParticipantOff topic woops.
It’s a movie made by Giga called Muscle Heroine (筋肉戦隊マッスルファイブ). Some of Japanese AV actresses are supposed to be “muscular”, but none are very big. Although I found most of them pretty attractive. Her name is Yokoyama Shoko 横山翔子.

ParticipantAll hail Michiko NishiwakiB) ! Japanese are never afraid to put an athletic woman in a heroic role without making her look / behave like a guy (even their current bodybuilders and other disciplines practitioners look a lot more balanced and harmonic than their Western colleagues).Something Hollywood still has to…not “learn“, but rethink.
Yeah, yeah, Sue Price and all those “Nemesis” movies, but what I sense is not exactly fear of athleticism, but failing directly when picking the base: you can’t turn naturally slim, tiny actresses into believable fictional fighters, no matter how much abs you see. You know what happens when you shove a lot of training into skinny actresses all of a sudden? Jennifer Garner in “Elektra“: that poor woman didn’t look healthy at all. Compare that with Jessica Biel: she has/had a lot of training experience, so when she pumped up for “Blade“, her muscles happily swole.Linda Hamilton’s conditioning is different because her physique made her look more deranged than strong.

Yeah and I sense PED had something to do with it. Some FBB look big but something is just not right. Who can not like Nishiwaki?

I’m not so sure about that, keep in mind that Mishiko has made her whole career as an actress in Chinese/HK movies, not in Japan.
I’m not sure Japanese are less afraid to feature female bodybuilders in movies or in mangas (in that last case they are often making them look like men and look mostly unattractive).June 11, 2017 at 7:06 pm #135421Nick Furry
