physical or emotional protection
Any of the Sailormoon movies possibly?
Tuxedo Mask usually gets more into trouble than the heroine herself.Although I wouldn’t actually count him as weak, just weaker.
And it’s an old anime series, like starting in the 1990s, with later reboots.The Long Kiss Goodnight
Lego Movie
A sadly underappreciated show:
Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles
Easily the best terminator property after the first two. I mean that’s not a high bar, but i mean it should be held in the same esteem as they are.
- Star wars force awakens.
- Tangled
- Mulan
- Transformers
- Avatar (Blue people)
Could probably come up with more.
Alita: Battle Angel i think was like this a bit, but it is maybe not straightforward enough
maybe the no game no life movie , but i dont think that is really what you are looking for
Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets
Hunger games
Not movie, but Powerpuf Girls, Kim Possible, and Totally Spies
Inspector Gadget, too.
Relic hunter
Mary Poppins Alien (if you count the cat) 28 Days Later Run Lola Run (sorta)
Alien (if you count the cat)
I count Ripley following protocol and refusing to open the airlock for a contaminated crewmate. If Ash hadn’t stepped in, the movie would have ended very differently.
I don’t remember much of that movie, but an Aliens / Evil Dead crossover sounds like a lot of fun.
Also she defended Burke when the Marines were going to kill him for what he did. I mean she wanted him punished but… Letter of the law here. He was weak, she defended him.
That’s in the sequel tho innit?
Yeah, but that’s ok isn’t it?
Yeah I just thought you lot were talking about Alien 🤷♂️
I meant that Jonesy is the weak male that Ripley physically and emotionally protects.
Jonesy is a good cat
The first Underworld from 2003 is like this, but it’s painfully early 2000s. It’s from that era when every action movie was ripping of The Matrix as hard as possible.
Pain? No that feeling is wonder.
It is wonderfully early 2000s.
Kate Beckinsale younger and in leather. Nice.
In the universe I’m originally from she’s clad in shiny vinyl (yes, please) and her name was Beckinsdale.
Terminator 2 is probably the easiest answer.
3000 Years of Longing maybe? Tilda is very caring and acknowledging of her Djinn’s needs.
Strange Days (1995)
Wanted (2008 film) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wanted_(2008_film)
Angelina Jolie carries the protagonist until he can learn to fight on two feet
