Even in Terminator 3 she's made preparations in her death. <br /><br />I was gutted Donna didn't do another series of Doctor Who :-( <br /><br />Annalisa, definitely good grounds there for a heroine, sticking to what she believes in. <br /><br />Thanks both for commenting!Teresa F Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04368928238008888457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7946131609680459085.post-27878203354357213472011-08-20T17:20:53.317+01:002011-08-20T17:20:53.317+01:00Sarah Connor is definitely a favourite of mine too...Sarah Connor is definitely a favourite of mine too. She's one of those teabag heroes I talk about. She starts out as an ordinary person who would have been dead for sure without Kyle's help. But she finds the strength in herself to fight back through the film. Then in the second one she's all kick-ass, but it's clearly been a long hard road for her. In protecting her son she's almost destroyed her relationship with him. She's branded a madwoman. She's lost so much and almost loses her humanity by the end of it. Her arc is fantastic. She pays such a heavy price for what she turns herself into.<br /><br />Juliet I agree with too. I didn't like her when they were trying to <i>make</i> us like her in season 3. Then as soon as they stopped that and let her loose to be bad, I loved her. Though I disagree about Jack and Sawyer mud wrestling - I wanted Sayid and Sawyer mud wrestling. :D Sayid and Eko, not quite the same.<br /><br />Good on you for choosing Donna! My favourite by far of the nuWho companions. I was so delightfully wrong about her! :DBeeCyclinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03112685054452735536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7946131609680459085.post-35316682431598547332011-08-20T12:22:19.953+01:002011-08-20T12:22:19.953+01:00I had to think about this, because some of my favo...I had to think about this, because some of my favourite films don't have any women in them at all!<br /><br />I agree with Elizabeth Bennett, but then I started to wonder.... And I came up with a really obscure suggestion.<br /><br />I grew up watching the film Fiddler on the Roof, and the three eldest daughters are very strong and passionate role models. At a time when they were expected to obey their father, obey their religion, have marriages arranged by a matchmaker and then obey their husbands, these girls fought back to marry the men they loved - which was unheard of.Annalisa Crawfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14943610814274794998noreply@blogger.com
