Re: Do cgi movies hate female leads?

kind of true... yet princesses-fairies-bratz movies are intended just for

Reckon Shrek has one of the most power female leads.

Anime has a real assortment of genres on the matter :)... btw, which 
animation movie were just for boys ? it isn't just on the leads.
