#bechdeltest — Public Fediverse posts

Diese Serie wurde wirklich nicht für Leute wie mich gemacht. In den Nullerjahren war ich längst raus aus dem Alter, in dem auf Klassenfahrten Jamba-Klingeltöne ausgetauscht wurden oder „Männer“, die noch längst keine waren, sich im Aldi-Parkhaus gegenseitig die Fresse poliert haben. Ich hatte damals zwar auch schon ein Handy, ja sicher. Mein Klingelton war aber ein MP3 von Bruce Springsteens „Born to Run“ – und der war selbstverständlich nie peinlich. Jedenfalls nicht für mich. Niemals! (ZDF, Neu!)

I am glad to see that the bechdel test website still exists and still looks like a simple website. I thought to look it up as we saw toy story 5 tonight and it does pass.

Also, the "name the countries" game still exists.

Sometimes it feels like the old internet is all gone but some is still there.

Does it count as failing the Bechdel test if three women are talking about a man who attacked them and then they fought him off, stole his car, ran into him, backed over him twice, put his corpse in his car, and drove off to hide him and the car out "on the moors"?

TIL that there's at least correlation between:

- When sawing women in half was all the rage amongst magicians 🪄
- Women's Suffrage in the US 😬

The always excellent Bechdel Cast with guest Kayla, a magic performer, about the film "The Prestige"

I believe The Lord of the Rings film trilogy technically passes the Bechdel test.

The only conversation between 2 female characters is when the little girl asks Éowyn, "where is momma?" and Éowyn calms her.

That's it. The only conversation between 2 female characters in just under 12 hours of film.

1/2 Very much enjoying the Bechdel Cast LIVE on the topic of the Star Wars prequels.

Here is EVERY TIME WOMEN INTERACT in the Star Wars prequels (it’s 2.5 minutes long)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xi-O0_OPQQ4



Live podcast recording, CW, includes Obi Wan + Darth Maul erotic fan fiction 😆

And here, dear reader, is Marcia Lucas, George Lucas’s ex-wife, describing her reaction to The Phantom Menace (I learned of this from the podcast):


❝George is, in his heart and soul, a good guy and a talented filmmaker. I wish he would’ve kept directing [other kinds of] movies. But when I went to see Episode I — I had a friend who worked at ILM, who took me as a guest to a preview — I cried. I cried because I didn’t think it was very good. And I thought he had such a rich vein to mine, a rich palette to tell stories with. He had all those characters. I thought it was weird that the story was about this little boy who looked like he was six years old, but then later on he’s supposed to get with this princess who looked like she was twenty years old. There were things I didn’t like about the casting, and things I didn’t like about the story…it was a lot of eye candy.

Hey our feature tonight passed the #BechdelTest too - The scene at the airport check in counter was two women talking and it wasn't about a man.

All in all a pretty good feature tonight.

@thorne
There's also a brief exchange between Jinu and Gwi-Ma, if you count him a man, about Jinu's voice, although it's part of a larger conversation about women

#KPopDemonHunters passes the reverse #BechdelTest because at one point the TV show host commentates at length about hot sauce and Baby Saja replies "goo goo gaa gaa"

We need something like an inverse #bechdeltest for mobile phones being invovled in the plot of a #film or #tvseries

Stop it! It’s just lazy screenwriting.

While we’re are it, stop trying to do #computers - you clearly don’t understand them.

Just watched Grease (for the first time, somehow)

Incredibly, this #movie passes the #BechdelTest. Multiple times!

However, I feel like it's mainly because it has a cast of thousands, is about 9 hours long and is alllll over the map, plot-wise

Just by the laws of probabilities two named women would have to end up talking to each other about *something*

Arte Doku : Brainwashed , Sexismus im Kino
gute #Doku über den männlichen Blick und wie er #Patriachat und #RapeCulture immer neu reproduziert. Den Blick auf weibliche Körper zum Objekt vollzieht - immer und immer wieder : und wie schwierig es ist den Kreislauf in der #Medien Welt und #Hollywood zu brechen.

I have an idea for a project in R. I could track my read books and use the data to create a map of the countries the authors are from or where the book is set. And an idea I have for quite a while now, since I was introduced to it at a course during my master’s degree: Bechdel test for the novels I’ve read. But i never take notes so I have to rely on memory or others and of course start taking notes now. #BechdelTest #RStats #books

‘Would the film Hidden Figures pass the Bechdel Test?’

They are 9…so I asked: ‘how do you know what the #BechdelTest is?’

Response: ‘Oh it’s mentioned in the Simpsons’

Me: Oh, right…

We deliberated - clearly lots of scenes with women talking to each other, but a lot of the substance of what they say also relates to men.

But ultimately they do also talk a lot about maths, engineering and racial and gender segregation …so we decided in the end it does pass!

One of the many great things about John Allison's comics is how they consistently pass the Bechdel test, as a matter of course.

Just realized that Captain America: Brave New World (2025) fails the Bechdel test, like, _hard_.

There are basically only two women in the entire movie, and they're not talking to each other, even though they're working at the same place. And one of them doesn't get introduced until half an hour into the movie.

In the final 10 minutes of this 3.5 hour film we finally see two women line together where each speaks and their actions in that moment revolve around the two main men.

it's so lol.... I had started seeing this movie because I generally thought it could be interesting but soon I felt like won't pass this test

#paradise : nouvelle série sur Disney +. 3 épisodes disponibles pour le moment, un par semaine.
Ne vous fiez pas à son pitch ultra classique (le Président des États-Unis est assassiné, son responsable de la sécurité mène l'enquête) car le premier épisode se termine en dévoilant un univers original qui promet d'être riche en rebondissements.
Bon casting et bon compromis intrigues révélations.
A noter que Paradise propose de nombreux personnages féminins de pouvoir ou scientifiques, sans connotation sexuelle, sans caricature et ce n'est même pas un sujet dans la série.
Go Bechdel !

Oh sadly the two ladies have set the #bechdelTest back a generation

PSA: technically Alien passes the #BechdelTest. Because two women get together and communicate about something other than a man.

Quite enjoyed watching #Wingwomen on #Netflix https://www.imdb.com/title/tt21638298/

Pretty unusual action movie. Quite entertaining. Definitely passes the #BechdelTest

Kept hoping Dr. Langer would talk to one of the other women for a brief moment, but no #monsterdon #bechdeltest

family movie nite: watched GOOD WILL HUNTING for the first time since, what, 1997? 98? the first 15 minutes had me cringing at the close-but-still-no-cigar hollywood depiction of Wicked Smaht people, and the rest was riveting. pity about the #BechdelTest but let’s not ask the impossible; minnie driver’s effortlessly natural performance as The Girl is manic, pixie-ish, and dreamy, but she lifts every scene she’s in. and the older men are wonderful.

dead solid movie, glad we watched.

You know, Alexia and Daimoina, if the dude out there drowning had only been a dame, we'd have passed the Bechdel test right about now.

Did someone catch whether Mrs. Wilson and Kathy exchanged dialogue in their scene? #monsterdon #bechdeltest
