Her son John would be the one to lead the humans in the war against the machines, the Terminators. In the first two Terminator movies Sarah Connor plays a huge role. She is the perfect example of a feminine hero due to her trying to stop Judgement Day while fighting for survival against the T-800 in the first movie and the T-1000 in the second movie. In The Terminator, “Sarah Connor is a hapless teenage waitress with a dull life and lives with her best friend and roommate Ginger Ventura” (Terminator Wiki) Unknowningly to Sarah, a Terminator, a model T-800, is sent to her time from the future to kill her.

His name is Kyle Reese and is one of John Connor's top generals in the Resistance. He heads out to the nightclub, where he saves Sarah from the T-800, telling her “Come with me if you want to live.” (The Terminator) When Kyle tells Sarah about the future and how the T-800 is not human and trying to kill her she does not believe one word of what he is saying. “Oh, come on. Do I look like the mother of the future? I mean am I tough, organized? I can't even balance my checkbook.” (The Terminator) It is not until Kyle saves Sarah from the The Terminator at the police station that she finally believes everything he is saying. At a motel, Kyle explains to

Joel pleads for help, making sure to tell the soldier that he thinks Sarah’s leg is broken. After the soldier radios in, asking for advice, it is heavily implied that the soldier is ordered by ear to shoot them. After slight hesitation, the soldier lifts his rifle and fires at the two. Joel practically flies in the opposite direction of the soldier for cover, only causing him and Sarah to stumble and fall down a small hill. The soldier hastily follows them and aims his gun directly at Joel’s head. Joel begs for his life and is saved when the soldier is shot and falls over. Just as Joel picks his head up and looks, the camera also pans left to reveal Tommy, with Joel’s revolver in hand. Immediately after, Joel hears crying and jumps to Sarah’s side who he notices was shot and is excessively bleeding from her abdomen. Joel tries to comfort her and applies pressure to her wound in an attempt to save her life, but in response are only heart-breaking shrieks and cries from Sarah, who is clasping onto her dad, until the cries finally stop and she dies in his arms. Joel breaks down hysterically crying, shaking, and tightly hugging his daughter as beautiful yet dark instrumental music begins to chime in in the background up until the screen cuts to the title of the game, The Last of Us, followed by the opening
Taya, at the time, was a pharmaceutical drug representative that had recently moved to California from her home in Oregon. She met Chris through one of his fellow SEAL team members. As they got better acquainted, Taya asked Kyle what he did for a living. Kyle told her he drove an ice cream truck. Taya wasn’t fooled. Of course this wasn’t outside of the normal for Chris to keep what he did in the navy a secret. On multiple occasions Kyle told people ridiculous answers when they would ask him what he did for a job. Sometimes he would tell people that he sits inside ATM machines and divvy out money to people that would use them. Other times he would say that he polishes dolphins for the navy. Taya and Chris dated for some time before getting married in 2002 and having two
Female superheroes should be recognized as independent, powerful, and not sexualized by men or controlled in fact. Salander demonstrated what a true female protagonist is. Someone brave, intelligent, especially everything she went through when she was abused as a child or raped in later on. That did not affect her in a negative way because it just empowered her to keep moving forward even more. She was able to solve the dangerous mission of the disappearance of a young girl from the 1940’s. Larsson’s character in his book emphasized what O’Reilly was conveying, a female should be recognized, appreciated, and not go through trials to prove herself to anyone. Salander is “heroine in her own right” indeed.

Wonder Woman herself, although portrayed as the epitome of strength and power, is an example of why the heroic archetype is still largely biased in favour of the male. Although the comic book heroine bravely rescues men from danger and defeats villainous evildoers, she is still created in the image of a perfect woman and it is clear that the male gaze came into play during the creation of her hourglass figure and her impossibly tight costume. She is a creature of the male fantasy, and supports the dominant order of things rather than threatens it. She is more of a sexual fantasy than a role model for women and girls, and therefore does not truly embody the true heroic archetype. This idea is echoed in The Tomb Raider video game series. Lara
