‘PROJECT GREENLIGHT’ SHORT FILM ILLUSTRATES THE ARGUMENT AGAINST SEXIST SUPERHEROINE COSTUMES
Over the past few years, comics fans have been embroiled in a debate over the double standard that applies to superhero costumes. While men’s costumes are increasingly depicted as totally functional and conveying strength, women’s costumes remain what they’ve been for decades: skimpy, overtly sexualized, and all too often, anything but what would be practical for the purposes of patrolling the streets and fighting crime.
Filmmaker Luke Patton’s short film “Sexy Superhero” faces that debate head-on and makes something really funny out of it.
