    But are there actually folks in the movie crowd, who very seriously say that a movie has got to be bad, because it fails the Bechdel test?

    I heard about it for the first time with this post and immediately interpreted it to be highly tongue-in-cheek. Like it might be an additional metric to know what kind of movie to expect, but you should still look at actual quality ratings to learn of the quality…

      It’s probably more for outside of movie crowd people to explain to them that movie crowd types don’t just think something is bad because it fails it
