Wow! Surprised to see this here. I have a still active conversation about this exact topic with a couple of female friends concerning who I'd love to see in a female Expendables movie (including the roster I picked for main roster, backups (if main isn't available) and Alert 5 (as they say in the military). Let me go to my e-mail for my list...a-ha! Found it. Here's my full roster:

Definitely should be in:
- Milla Jovovich

- Michelle Rodriguez

- Linda Hamilton

- Michelle Yeoh

- Eliza Dushku

- Summer Glau

- Rachel Nichols

- Gina Torres

- Gina Carano


Backups:

- Kate Beckinsale

- Emilia Clarke

- Zoe Bell

- Lena Headey

- Rose Leslie

- Rene Russo

- Sarah Michelle Gellar

- Magda Aponowicz

- Sigourney Weaver


Alert 5:

- Scarlett Johansson

- Gal Gadot

- Morena Baccarin

- Lucy Liu

- Pam Grier

- Luvia Peterson

- Ronda Rousey

How's that for a list? Thanks. Out!

For what role? Not Rage, P2, Star Trek? What film?

Which Morena role was iconic butt-kicking?

Who are the others listed above? What roles were they iconically butt-kicking?

Hi JewelStaiteFan, for Rachel Nichols here's what makes her qualify for this film wise:

- G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (she played Scarlett)
- Alex Cross
- Raze
- TV Series Continuum

For Ms. Zoe Bell...she's a legendary ass-kicker and stunt woman famous for Angel of Death and Raze

For Magda and Luvia it goes back to the TV series Continuum

For Morena we remember her using a crossbow a little for Serenity but she's also about to have a little film called Spy come out.

Gal Gadot qualifies with her Fast and the Furious films (Fast 4-6) and is about to play Wonder Woman

And Rose Leslie for Ygritte in Game of Thrones where she kicked a ton of ass (especially with a bow and arrow). There you have it. Out!

I may have slept through GI Joe.
Women buttkickers in Alex Cross? Whodathunk?
Continuum - does anybody else think this was good? Clearly one fan thinks so, but if it was so good, how did I not hear about it so far? Do I need to check it out?
Never heard of Raze until now.
But Zoe Bell is the lead babe in Hateful Eight, looks like - so will she be whoring around, or killin' dudes? (the standard Quentin choices)

Why you haven't heard about it or whether you should check it out is hard to say. I say it is very good. All three seasons are on Netflix, now we're just waiting to hear if there will be a fourth.

Another vote for Rachel Nichols.
And yes, I do think Continuum is a pretty good show.

Certainly looks like 3 votes FOR, so I gotta put it on my list. Similar to any other shows?

None that I can think of right away. It's about a cop from the future accidentally transported back in time, along with a terrorist group that were supposed to have been executed in her future. The terrorist group has a just cause, but their methods are suspect, and yet over time she begins to believe they might have a valid point about the government of the future.

I know there have been other time travel shows, but I haven't seen several of them, like Time Trax or 7 Days, and I'm sure there are others I'm not aware of. I can only suggest you watch a few episodes and see what you think. At the current time, there are no showings scheduled on Syfy, but all three seasons are on Netflix.

Apparently Continuum is hard to find. Not one single video store in the chain I got an account at reportedly has it.
