1. Legally Blonde.

   Please don’t judge me.

2. Ermm, Basic instinct, barbwire are ones spring to mind. Will add more later!!

3. I, Tonya. Margot Robbie was amazing in this film

4. [Aliens (1986)](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090605)

5. Alien franchise with Sigourney Weaver as Ripley.

6. Tomb Raider

7. Smiley Face

8. A League of their Own

9. Animation: Spirited Away, Chihiro was an amazing lead

   Recent films: Everything, Everywhere, All At Once. Michelle Yeoh is such a good actress and did her character justice

   Older films: Pan’s Labrynth, Ofelia’s journey was something else

10. Mad Max: Fury Road

11. Jackie Brown.

12. [Alita: Battle Angel (2019).](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puKWa8hrvA8) That movie character is sacred to me. 🙂

13. Ripley in Alien series.

    Sarah Connor in Terminator 2

    Nancy in Nightmare on Elm Street

    Emily Blunt in Edge of Tomorrow

    Honestly if youd go threw 80s and 90s good horror movies you will find plenty of quality female protagonists.

14. The Descent, 28 Weeks Later, Alien

15. Coraline

16. The Hunt (2020). Betty Gilpin is awesome in that movie.

    Ready or Not (2019). Samara Weaving.

17. Debbie does Dallas

18. Aliens, clueless, everything everywhere all at once, Debbie does Dallas

19. Alien Franchise

    Alita: Battle Angel

    Miss Congeniality

    Legally Blonde

    Twilight Saga

    Mary Poppins (old and new)

    300: Rise of an Empire

    Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

    Off the top of my head anyways.

20. Mean Girls

21. August Ames, anything with August Ames in it. 😂

22. Kill bill comes to mind

23. oceans eight

24. Lucy Liu is hot af.

25. Mostly pornos are what I think of when I think female led.

26. The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie.

27. The first two films in both the Alien and Terminator series of films.

    Mary Poppins (original).

    Hmm… I’ll have to get back to you on this one…

28. Nomadland

29. Heathers

30. Thirteen, great coming of age drama.
    The Descent. We Summon The Darkness. Others I can’t remember. Hollywood should realize female led movies can work. It just has to be written well. Not “Oh look strong woman don’t need no man CLAP AND CHEER.” Just write good characters and story, make it believable and Idc what gender they are.

31. Black Lagoon

32. Terminator, Alien, Underworld. All I can think of at the moment. I don’t usually care who the lead is, just that the story is good. But if they shoehorn in someone because if race or gender it ruins the movie for me.

33. Powerpuff girls. I watched that show, when i was kid 🙂

34. Mean girls

35. I agree with a lot of the ones I’ve seen here already, but I’ll add Erin Brockovich to the list. It’s a great movie and Julia Roberts is absolutely hilarious in it.

36. In no particular order:

    – Princess Mononoke
    – Amelie
    – Frances Ha
    – Little Women
    – Arrival

37. All about my mother
    Girl interrupted

38. Resident Evil without a doubt.

39. Furie. Veronica Ngo kicks arse literally for almost the entire run time.

    If animated counts then Ghost in the Shell. Motoko is hard as nails and has that ‘get shit done’ attitude that makes Ripley and Sarah Connor great.

40. Silence of the Lambs

41. Pitch Perfect

    Bridesmaids

    Kill Bill

    Clueless

42. Big Booty Hoes
