A faction of regressive MCU followers are trying to argue {that a} cropped haircut is liable for the dismal field workplace efficiency of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.
A spicy tweet sparked the absurd dialogue when a fan posted a photograph of Hope van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) sporting a pixie minimize with a caption difficult others to do their pondering for them, “This haircut singlehandedly tanked this movie. Change my thoughts.”
Simply in case there was any doubt in regards to the sexist undertone of OP’s tweet, they doubled down on their policing of Lilly’s look with an ageist follow-up tweet.
Extremely, OP was not the one disgruntled fan to lament the size of Lilly’s hair and moan about their horror of mature ladies.
And not using a scintilla of irony, OP echoed the shallow views of insufferable ignoramus Carolyn Burnham (Annette Bening) when she cruelly slammed her daughter’s failure to uphold the weaponized magnificence requirements of patriarchy in American Magnificence.
It wasn’t lengthy earlier than actuality burst the bubble of nonsense as one other person posted a GIF of Jamie Lee Curtis to level out that the size of a girl’s hair doesn’t decide her attractiveness or the success of the films she seems in.
Who can neglect Halle Berry’s iconic pixie haircut or how her look influenced stars like Rihanna and Miley Cyrus to crop their lengthy tresses? Furthermore, Zoë Kravitz sported the identical stylish look when she performed Selina Kyle/Catwoman in The Batman, a movie that grossed an eye-popping $770 million on the field workplace.
Regardless of the disappointing field workplace figures for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Evangeline Lilly nonetheless walked away with a juicy $2 million paycheck. This makes it possible that, whereas her critics amuse themselves by poking enjoyable at her haircut, she’s most likely laughing all the way in which to the financial institution (or possibly her subsequent anti-vaccine rally).
