The Bechdel Test

I'm not a feminist by any stretch of the imagination (although apparently I should be) but saw this video and had to share.



Kinda ridiculous that so few movies pass the test. And when I think of ones that do, they're mainly HORRIBLE chick flicks. I wonder why it is that so few movies have women as the kickass leads. You know, Transformers would have been just as cool if Shia Lebeouf would have been played by a girl - no arguments about whether he IS a girl.

Bechdel Test for Movies
1) Two or more women (with a name)
2) They talk to each other
3) About something other than men
