> Star Wars is suddenly not about defeating totalitarianism and tyranny,

It's a massive universe and there's been six movies about this theme already. Why retread old themes instead of trying something new? By the way, I am NOT defending the new trilogy - it is absolutely awful, but it's not awful BECAUSE it's about feminism and animal rights (also, it isn't, it's still about totalitarianism and tyranny).

> Batman become a medic rather than do what Batmam does: beat up bad guys.

Again, there have been anywhere between 9-10 batman movies depending on how you count of him beating up bad guys. Why do you need more? Why not try something new and really interrogate the psychopathy of the character, and the realization he might go through which is that beating up bad guys isn't the best use of time for a billionaire.

> Catwoman must be with the times and complain about the attention paid to "rich white men"

Did you miss the part where her mother and her best friend were both essentially sex slaves that got choked to death by the italian mafia? If anyone has a case and a grudge against "rich white men", it's probably her.

Also, the whole movie, is about how rich corrupt people let the whole city down.

I haven't seen the new Bond movie, but if they actually had the balls to kill him, that's tremendous progress.

Why are you so resistant to any change?
