Perhaps people are tired of the usual WW2 movies? Or perhaps Hollywood is about to launch its usual “WW2 movie-every-two-years” and they don’t want to overdo it?
I always wonder: what’s the difference between the two wars, movie-wise? The “good guys” are the same…the Germans are the villains…there’s a lot of cool tech & weapons around…what’s the difference? Perhaps since Germany was still divided (Prussia Weimar and whatnot), the enemies can be rendered more anonimously (PC forever!). Or perhaps Russia was still Russia and not Evil Commie Land?

On a second note, WW looks like her cuirass is 2 sizes too big :laugh:

A photo from the WW movie set. Wow. She overdid it…those immense biceps have grown to the point of making her look like a man! 😆 :woohoo: 👿 😛 :laugh:

She broke five of those armbands with those pipes; that’s why she doesn’t have any on the right arm.

Flex those paddings, Lovely Legs! 😛

And here’s Oksana Grishina, a current Fitness champion:

I still don’t know why this lady isn’t in Physique bursting out of that posing suit.

[quote=”oriander2000″ post=125961]Probably because she understood she doesn’t stand a chance in Physique. I think she has that “girl-next-door” beauty (in my opinion, it counts), plus a (very) strong musculature, but she doesn’t have a winning Physique body. If you look at the winners from that division, you’ll see huge backs and enormous delts, and very buff bodies. She has a more overall “strong” body look rather than a massive one. so let’s hope that’ll favor her in Figure.

The sport of FBB/physique have evolved so much. I started paying attention around 80s. The 80s FBB probably could not compete in women’s physique today.[/quote]

Personally, I think they couldn’t even compete in Figure…and some of them would be too small for Fitness!

This girl is a particular case. She competes and wins in Physique, but she never stops growing. She’s still gaining mass and looking bigger and bigger without apparent intention of moving to fbb.

Wow. We are actually setting a conspiracy! 😛

“Hollywood is a mirror of society.”

Half of it, yes. The other half consists of imposing trends, ideals, actions, and “history”. Hollywood is a prime source of propaganda, no matter how much we like to think otherwise.

Regarding women and muscles…first, we should aim for equality between genders. And I mean, actual equality. In movies, muscles = violence. No one is “casually” buff. If they sport a ripped body, they’re gonna use it, and almost always for violence (okay, pr0n doesn’t count 😉 ) . If it is for visual appeal, well, here Hollywood is a mirror of society: muscular women don’t sell romance. They sell strenght, violence, action.

Continuing with equality: whenever a woman is put in a similar violent situation as any male character…bam, the “X-Men: Apocalypse” issue brought to you by false feminists.They want similar roles, both in fiction and reality, but they don’t want any consequences. They want action, violence, heroism, but they forget that part of being a hero(ine) is receiving punches. Basically, they want perfect, beautiful, capable, untouchable heroines who never get hit and never fail. They want Tomb Raider I and II.

I digress, sorry. So, the only niche we can find for buff ladies is, for now, the violent one. Sadly, muscular ladies are still a small part of sexy body types, so it’s not a matter of acting, it’s a matter of patience. Perhaps one day they’ll realize Scarlett Johansson looks like a supermodel in a bodysuit and not a superspy, or that no matter how much Jennifer Garner or Olivia Munn work out, they don’t look tough. They made every guy bulk up dementially for every single action role, but for every action heroine is just 2 months of lifting plastic weights ans showing how “buff” they look on IG.

How to gain muscles without exercise!

I think this video is kinda making fun of the thing…especially when she mentions “fat like this…ew!”. They did something similar in the documentary for the “Chemical Pink” movie, called “Prepping Pink” (not on YT anymore). In the first stage of the protagonist muscling up, they airbrushed the actress with similar muscles. Sadly, this only works well on very brief and poorly illuminated shots…I recall Tim Roth’s silly painted on muscles in the second “Hulk” movie. 😆

Kinda like this, but with less red.

This guy used the wrong approach. Held his girlfriend semi-hostage for a year, forcing her on a strict diet and exercises to turn her into a mix between Gracyanne Barbosa and Kim Kardashian. Man, this sounds like bad fanfiction.
