    Even then it’s not easy. They went through all the trouble of conceiving of a joke, drawing the and coloring the characters, and then they completely throw it all away by having the most difficult to read handwriting I’ve seen outside of a doctor’s office.

    I’m not saying my handwriting is any better, but my work doesn’t hinge on legibility.

    This isn’t your “I’m going to chop down a tree” tool. The head of this thing was either for messing fools up, or for busting brush, not heavy use.

    Given that, the structural weakness is worth it in this case. Pushing the axe head a little farther out lengthens the “handle” (gun) and provides more leverage. That leverage comes in handy when hacking through both bushes and fools.

    Not really.

    If you have a male antagonist, your movie fails the test unless you have a specific scene where you sideline two of your female characters to talk about something other than the plot.

    Similarly, if the story has an ensemble that features any male characters you need to contrive a way to get rid of them for one scene just to check an arbitrary box.

    Using this as anything other than a thought experiment ensures that once per story female characters will be demoted to side characters featuring in a meaningless dialogue scene.
