So the queen is not a human, but evil personnified. No one uses intelligence or compassion to her (after all, she is EVILLE) so no need to use rational thinking. Just murder off the enemy and then take all their resources. Not sure if this is more propaganda for Christianity or for war. And to disguise it as entertainment for youth is child abuse. And using female empowerment to say that females can be as idiotic and/or as violent as males - I think people are bastardazing how women fought for equal rights in the late 60's/early 70s. A very messed up movie.

So, you're saying that women CAN'T be as idiotic and/or violent as males? That's like saying an African American can't be as idiot and/or violent as any other race because of how hard they fought. People are people.

What about female murderers, serial killers, etc? I know females who have beaten the living daylights out of others. When I was younger, in High School, there were plenty of fights among girls. When the boys fought there, punches were thrown, people kicked, some injuries, but when the girls fought, hair was ripped out, faces clawed, and one girl even broke her nose. We have a handful of stories of women leading battles, such Judith in the Bible. In more recent history, Deborah Sampson joined the American Revolution on the side of the patriots, alongside men. Charlize Theron was in the movie Monster, based on a true story of a female serial killer. Delphine LaLaurie, slave owner in the 1820s, treated her slaves so badly that authorities investigated, even when African Americans weren't even seen as people.
Last, but certainly not least, Queen Mary of England. There was a reason she was called Bloody Mary. I'm not sure how many people were burned at the stake during her reign, but mainly they were Protestants, including children and disabled people.
I think there are enough examples to show that women can be as violent as men.
