I agree that it's perfectly acceptable for women protagonists to be a thing. In fact, The Hunger Games franchise is a perfect example of what directors should aim to do with their female characters.

My beef (In terms of female protagonists) is mostly with the new Star Wars film. Rey was completely perfect at everything she did, and was practically all-knowing. Disney was so desperate to add a new female character to the franchise that they never stopped and took time to build on her character. They just made her perfect and called her a symbol of "girl power" (lol). Meanwhile the men in the film were all flawed and either really arrogant or too foolish/comedic. The whole thing was pretty much slapped together, and really just a remake a A New Hope, too..

I know the media and Hollywood are filled with equally politically correct, social justice characters. Because of this, I fear for the future of Jurassic Park. Seeing a strong, powerful male character in modern fandom is reassuring to me, seeing as how they are practically frowned upon now.

Just look at the  Ghostbusters  remake. Or look at  The Hobbit  films. Those films were awful because of political correctness.
