Movie Name : Relic Hunter Transformation
Actress Name : Roberta Angelica
Character Name : Turley
Year : 1999

In tv show Relic Hunter season 1 episode titled Transformation aired 1999. actress Roberta Angelica plays as villainess Turley.

Here's the funny thing, I never watched Indiana Jones, actually, I never watched anything related to George Lucas, I don't know why, and I watched tons of movies, but never anything to George Lucas, it's just me, but there's something about his movies that make me don't want to even give them a chance, and seeing how Disney basically deconstructed both Indiana Jones and Star Wars, and how George Lucas saying "Rejecting AI is like riding horses" I don't plan to watch them, even tho I know there's a female villain in one of Indiana Jones' movies, I think I will never watch them till the end of my life, which is kind of a dumb phrase, like, when you talk about art, you are talking about something like sport, the existence of cars didn't make riding horses as a sport disappear, people still ride horses for sport either officially like in horse races or personally, what applies to riding horses as sport applies to movies as art, not everyone have to make a movie like how everyone have to ride a car, which actually tells me more about him than it tells me about AI, and I don't like it, I mean think about it, like you having a horse should mean you have emotional connection with such creature, which would probably you wouldn't just replace with a piece of metal, the way George Lucas is describing the situation with cold analogy make me wonder how people working with him in his movies were like!

Anyway, Relic Hunter was Indiana Jones for me, watching this show as a kid was awesome, like waiting it to air, then hearing the intro music, then watching another adventure was awesome, I was excised to see what new adventure I will watch, what mystery she will need to solve, it could be the nostalgia, but this show was awesome, just the intro music bring back this great nostalgia feeling..

Here's an interesting scene around 28 minutes, the heroes basically solved a puzzle that opened a secret door, you may notice, the sound start, the door is pushed outward, the camera shows the heroes reaction, as the sound keep playing, then the door open to the side, that's the magic, the sound with the heroes reaction, give the illusion that it's one process, while it can be easily as two separate process, the first one is pushing the door outward, then two the side, with good craftsman, you don't need CGI, you can do it with simple tricks..

Finally we see our villainess around 29 minutes..

I have no idea why I liked Nigel as a kid, it's probably his hair,

This episode is very weird it feels as if it just started towards the end, like so many plot holes that it feels that the episode was altered a lot, for example, they found out that Agent Derek Lioyd isn't what he claim to be, and that he stole the identity of an actual agent, and the episode just forget it happened, like was he a criminal going after the scroll the same way Turley did, was he supposed to betray them, were there more to the story? There are also many scenes that take too much of the episode time and aren't very essential to the story, like, they take their time being in a restaurant, it just feel that the episode needed more that's all..

Lindy Booth is playing Claudia Mardell in the upcoming Halloween Store movie, and she was playing Claudia in this show too which is kind of interesting..

Anyway, here's the final famous mud fight scene, which the best scene in the entire episode, I wish Turley was more active, she basically got two scenes, when we first see her and the fight scene..

Movie Name : 009-1: The End of the Beginning

Actress Name : Nao Nagasawa, Mami Abe and Aya Sugimoto

Character Name : Milliam, 020's Secretary and Clyne

Year : 2013

In 2013 movie 009-1: The End of the Beginning. Actresses Nao Nagasawa, Mami Abe and Aya Sugimoto play as villains Milliam, 020's Secretary and Clyne.

This one is going to be fun..

We see a secondary villainess at the start of the movie..

The protognist basically killed the boyfriend of the secondary villainess and his men, but the villainess survived and we see her again around 9 minutes mark, she fight the protognist, 009-1, then ran away..

009-1 in this movie really reminds me of Kyle XY, it's possible that the show inspired the movie, Kyle XY was a great show, too bad it was cancelled, but at least it wasn't deconstructed by Hollywood, which would be way worse, at least you get to have a good memory of a show that you wished it continued not to see your favorate show being purposly destroyed by the followers of the moralistic realistic failed artist..

009-1 went to save Doctor Clyne after she was kidnapped in a warehouse, 009-1 a nice fight with the female kidnappers, not sure if they are villains tho, they may end up being the good guys, since Doctor Clyne is a villainess after all..

Around 22 minutes Doctor Clyne mercilessly shoots her kidnappers after they were defeated, I'm so in love with Doctor Clyne, a woman of science, gorgous and evil, she's so perfect 😍😍😍😍..

The main villainess appear around 26 minutes, and had a great fight scene with the solders who went to free Doctor Clyne then with 009..

I can't belive 30 minutes already passed, this is good, I don't care about the budget, if I'm watching a movie and half an hour passed without me noticing it, that's a good movie, and for me, it's better than a movie with 1 billion dollar budget that feels tedious and boring to watch..

Ok, here's a scene I find really intersting, basically our villainess went after the heroine with her helicopter, and fired at her, as the heroine was running, a child was in danger, basically she saved her, and the mother of the child saw that the heroine was basically a machine, she called her a monster and grapped her daughter and walked away, and out of anger the heroine used her fist to hit the ground.. Here's why this scene is extremly intersting, You can check the original artilce of How to use the evil values to make moralistic story here, Imagine if the protognist really looks unattractive, like how Al Simmons ended up to be in Spawn, or Creature in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, the emotional impact in this case would extremly powerful, the mother sees her daughter, and instead of the heroine being rewarded for her bravery and for saving a child, she is met with hate, and you seeing how heartbreaking the moment is, you get to feel the emotion the protognist is having, it would be extremly impactful, especially with a good performance.

So the protognist called Mirine Hoffman, or at least that what she decided to call herself in front of Chris..

WTF, we see 020's Secretary and Stinger's girlfrind meeting together with 020's Secretary losing her eye, like, when did that happen? Mirine barely knocked her out!!

The final fight between Mirine and Stinger's girlfrind starts around 46 minutes..

I could be wrong, but one of the things I've noticed from watching Asian movies that they often fail to mention the actual name of the charcters and focus more on their function in society, for example, you have 020's Secretary, you have other charcter that can be described as the mob boss or something, it's like "He/She the one who do such function" not "Their name is such and their function is this", even when the charcter is essential to the story and active in it, could be wrong, maybe it's artistic choice to focus more on the charcters that are center of the story and for the sake of simplicity instead of overcmplicating things for the audiance and giving them too much information that it makes it too hard for them to absorb especially if the work is targetting foreign audiances who already focus on the subtitle as the watch the movie..

Around 53 minutes, Mirine went to the warehouse where she think Clyne went to after she was taken, probably because Mirine think that Clyne could be her mother, and it's possible that her mother in the meaning she's the one created her, similar to Creature in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, who I remember in the movie kept calling Frankenstein his father..

Ok, Mirine went into a trap in the warehouse and was taken by the main villainess..

WTF, I'm crying, Chris is the one behind this all, and he did it in a very smart way..

This movie has a lot of female villains, and all of them are unique, I love it..

And once Mirine went to the warehouse, you get plot twist after another that it feels like this sketch from Key & Peele..

Around 1 hour 7 minutes Doctor Clyne make an evil laugh 😍😍😍Then Chris sent the zombies after our beloved evil doctor..

Fuck you, Chris, really, after all Doctor Clyne did for the sake of evil, you send the zombies after her, you bring shame to all evil people!

The zombie fight scene with Mirine is so bloody.

The final fight between Mirine and Milliam starts around 1 hour 13 minutes.

Chris was killed by mistake by Milliam, he was a useless villain anyway, I like the plot twist he did, but he kept doing dumb decisions..

That was a unique, all I can say about the movie is this, it's dumb, genius and super fun.

Movie Name : Hercules: The Legendary Journeys War Bride
Actress Name : Josephine Davison
Character Name : Princess Alexa
Year : 1997

In tv show Hercules: The Legendary Journeys season 3 episode titled War Bride aired 1997. Actress Josephine Davison plays as villainess Alexa.

Hercules will always be one of the greatest shows ever made, and I'm talking about one aspect that even Game Of Thrones can't compete with, and it's the aesthetic of the show, the costumes, the makeup, the accessories, the scenery, the design of the set, I wish if there was a HD version of the show, it's so fun to watch just by looking at it, even if there are other shows that came after it with better story and choreography and way more advanced CGI, the aesthetics of Hercules are unmatched..

When it comes to the aesthetics of Hercules, it plays a huge role to help the immersion in the story, it's very unique and gives the show its unique character, everything in the show is made to make you feel, the episode started now you are entering a different world, and the way they use nature and the idea of filming in New Zealand, give you the unique feeling that this isn't the world of this time, but it's a story from another time before the industrial revolution, this is so different from how most shows were made afterwards and how many of them are heavily dependent on the CGI..

Anyway, Princess Melissa was taken as she was asleep, and it's not clear who is behind it, but Hercules saved her not knowing who she was..

The action fight scenes are very basic, but with a professional camera work they look really nice, the camera is part of the action, it's not common to see camera work as good in fight scenes, it's also not easy..

Around 35 minutes, Alexa successfully tracked Melissa into a temple, and she intends that Melissa doesn't leave the temple alive to try to claim the throne, and we get Alexa's final confrontation..

Movie Name : The Spy Next Door

Actress Name : Katherine Boecher

Character Name : Tatiana

Year : 2010

In 2010 movie The Spy Next Door. Actress Katherine Boecher plays as villainess Tatiana.

The movie starts with nostalgia moments from Jackie's movies, only Jackie Chan can do that in his movies, the guy is a legend and basically a global phenomena..

We see our villainess for the first time around 15 minutes mark, as the main villain manged to escape and she was greeting him..

Around 18 minutes there is an emotional moment when Bob Ho accidentally heard Farren talking about why she really doesn't want her mom to marry him..

We see Tatiana again around 23 minutes, and her East European accent sound really beautiful..

This a very weird movie for Jackie, I'm used watching him as adventurer, cop, fighter, or whatever, not usually see him like in a romcom family movie like this one..

Nice, Jackie is singing in Chinese, I'm not sure which Chinese dialect, I can't tell.

Around 47 minutes, Tatiana manged to track Jackie, and around 50 minutes mark she found Jackie, and they had a very short fight..

Jackie Chan movies is what it mean to make an action comedy, you basically laugh watching the fight scenes.

The villains caught the hero around 1 hour 11 minutes, and Tatiana found out that he was making a trap for them, whenever Tatiana talks it sounds as if she's singing, like her voice sound like music..

Around 1 hour 18 minutes, The hero manged to escape using CIA advanced tech and cut himself loose, but Tatiana went to the hero's girlfriend's home to get some formula they downloaded by mistake, and from there the final confrontation of the movie..

The different between Jackie and any other action star, that his action is often comedic and have comedic effect, something is really hard to do comparing to do only action or only comedy movie, a really fun movie to watch.

Movie Name : Wings of Dread

Actress Name : Hong Shuang

Character Name : Yu Qi

Year : 2026

In 2026 movie Wings of Dread. Actress Hong Shuang plays as villainess Yu Qi.

I'm excited to watch this movie..

We get a fight just at the start of the movie, one of the villains was holding a plastic bottle, which shows that the director is paying attention to details, as for what the plastic bottle means, if you know you know, if you don't, god bless you LOL..

We see Yu Qi for the first time around 9 minutes, I think Yu Qi is the third villainous character played by the gorgeous Hong Shuang..

Watching Iko Uwais playing such different character than what I used to see him in is awesome..

Paquet is a really good character, we don't see that anymore, like charismatic character, he kind of reminds me of Clyde Shelton from Law Abiding Citizen..

Ok, this is really good, basically Paquet gave Gu, the hero, a clue, in his tattoo, I love this.. I can't believe this, like he looked back at him, the look itself isn't just aesthetic look but it also work on another metaphorical level, like a teacher looking at his student to see if he will notice the clue or not, these small details are just awesome..

Now we are talking, the real action starts around 40 minutes, especially when it comes to Paquet..

Somehow Yu Qi freed herself, don't know when or how..

One of the heroes hit a poor passenger by mistake LOL.

Hollyshit, Iko Uwais is awesome, he really deserves more recognition as an actor, I don't even remember when an actor played a villain in action movie this good, like both the charisma and the fight scenes..

Somehow the movie manged to make fighting in close-spaces work, which is kind of surprising in a good way, such scenes is way more restrictive than having a fight in a room for example..

From 40 minutes on, the movie changes radically, from some situation that seems inconvenient and being taking care off, to something entirely different.

WTF, the movie went from 1 to dial things up to 11 by 1 hour mark, like everything is chaotic and out of control.

I think The final fight starts around 1 hour 3 minutes..

The fight scenes in this movie are brutal..

The movie also did a good job with the hero.

Watching 2026 movie that not only as good as expected but exceeding my expectations is extremely rare, great job.

The movie also isn't bloated, and I hate how many movies got bloated recently, the movie needed hour and a half and it got hour and a half, the thing about bloated movies that it sometimes bore me that I stop watching them till the end, if the movie need 2 hours make 2 hours if it needs hour and a half don't bloat it to be 2 hours..

You can watch the whole movie on here, and there is a compilation of Yu Qi's scenes in the movie here..

Movie Name : Special Female Force

Actress Name : Hidy Yu

Character Name : Tung Zi

Year : 2016

In 2016 movie Special Female Force. Actress Hidy Yu plays as villainess Tung Zi. Another Chinese movie, with the incredible Hidy Yu..

I just found out that Hidy Yu is a Youtuber, most videos aren't in English, so I don't even what is it about, I guess it's about nature.

You know, in a sane world China and USA, would be the closest friends, not only you have approximately 1.5 billion people sharing one country, but also their standards of living getting better, what country wouldn't want to be attractive tourist destination to such huge country, not only they would spend money in the market, but also resurrect businesses that wouldn't function otherwise, including restaurants, theaters, and anything that can be apart of tourism tour, can you imagine if your country became the destination for that? Or a cultural exchange that make your culture appeal to them even if you have totally different culture. That's the different between the villain's immorality and the hero's morality, being immoral means that you understand and respect the morality of the hero even if you don't share it, every villain always understand the hero's morality, but the moral hero can never understand others morality, as the hero is fighting immorality, so, any moral code that contradict the hero's morality is evil they reject, that's on a level villains are about tolerance while heroes are about intolerance. That's why villains share the heroes' morality, but the heroes can never share the the villains immorality, as they lack free will, and enslaved by their intolerance, and in case of action movies, this immoral exchange happened with Jackie Chan, with the cultural exchange, Jackie gave Hollywood the action style, he respected their culture, and shared their morality by adding to the art they enjoy, the fight scenes and the action, and by doing so, Chinese culture also became part of the American culture, by seeing the influence Jackie's left on how fight scenes are being made, the impact even influenced movies like The Matrix..

Anyway let's watch the movie..

Damn, the first 5 minutes would never be made in the west today, not any part of them due to art censorship, it's kind of crazy TBH.

Damn, Macy's final moments are extremely painful, WTF, it's insane that they made this scene at the start, like you don't know any of the characters, and shouldn't care about them, you were basically introduced to them, god, I hope they don't build up to this scene later, they used to always do that in Chinese movies..

The first 50 minutes are basically training of the Special Female Force, but surprisingly not boring, it's too long tho, yet I laughed watching this movie more than I expected.

What just happened? So, around 50 minutes the heroes went to make a fake raid then discovered that it's a real ones with bad people with real guns going after them! LOL!

The first hour of the movie gives so little to the whole story, it would be ok if it's a TV show with them being trained and by graduating the episode ends with a conclusion, so it would make sense for taking so much time in the training.. Also the movie starts extremely serious then goes extremely ridiculous, like with Macy's scene, it was slow and painful, like how her nails was being torn, it's so serious, then the movie jump towards a very comedic theme, and the first scene of the defeat of the former Special Female Force, like many heroic characters died, we don't know who they are, which make it feel like nothing, and make it hard to care about them, then with their raid that was made by mistake, I think one of the hostages died, also no one cares, as it wasn't even their target to begin with, so why would it matter if they failed at it, or for a character that appear for half a minute to die, and if the scene was meant to be a comedic, it would be more funny if they went to raid a movie set thinking it's real and kind of beat the people thinking they are real to then face their leader to scold them for it, that would make more sense, but scolding them to do something that they didn't expect and facing a danger that wasn't supposed to be there doesn't make sense.

We finally see our gorgeous villainess for the first time around 1 hour 7 minutes, when she asks Ling Ling to meet her boss.

We could've had Tung Zi since the start of the movie, but we only get her for the last half hour, she's absolutely breathtaking..

Ling Ling was taking to a crime boss using the code name "The President", but with the help of her friends, she manged to escape, The President's men went after her and started a shooting at them, with our gorgeous villainess leading the team.

Around 1 hour 13 minutes is why Tung Zi will always be one of the greatest villains of all time, she made a very rewarding kill, as The President's men failing to take down the heroes, she got her rifle, and shot one of them.. Here's why this is a very rewarding kill, first the one Tung Zi took down didn't just appear, she's a main character, so it's emotionally rewarding within the experience of the movie, unlike the first team that was taking down at the start of the movie, this one actually had multiple comedic scenes, which also amplify it emotionally, secondly, with The President's men failing to take any one of the heroes, not only Tung Zi manged to do it, but also manged to do it easily, with the first shot, she's very smart and calculate her moves, she's a villainess you don't mess with, an actual danger, I'm so in love with Tung Zi 😍😍😍😍.

We see our evil goddess once again around 1 hour 21 minutes making a delivery at the airport.

I think the final confrontation starts there, see.. That's why I wish Tung Zi played more active role since the start of the movie, there's only 20 minutes left in the movie and it feels like the movie is in the first half, you want more, but you know there's no much time to expand on it.

Any way, the stunning Tung Zi manged to take one of the hero's, I wish if she kidnapped me, I would die for her..

There are many female villains towards the end, yet, most of them appear for couple of seconds then defeated, the most notable among them appear around 1 hour 25 minutes, you can watch their final fight here.

The final fight between Tung Zi and the heroine starts around 1 hour 30 minutes, you can watch it here.

This is one of the greatest female-led action movies I've seen in my life, it wish it lasted more and the villains played more active role, but that how good movies used to be, really fun, couple of hours well-spent..

Sadly the director of the movie Wilson Chin left our world four years after the movie was released, we will be forever grateful for you, Wilson Chin 💔💔💔.
