Well from Aeon Flux I like SIthandra (portrayed by Sophie Okonedo) :D Not really a heroine but she helped Aeon in the film so... [IMG=200x200]http://i331.photobucket.com/albums/l458/glvalentine/questionabletaste/aeonflux/18.jpg[/IMG] and Joan Chorot portrayed by Simona Maicanescu from Splice gives a very good example how to run world class business with her spiky attitude [img=200x200]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uexrWjEWiKI/UBAKYPaM6bI/AAAAAAAAAX4/tNOlqgKdHX0/s1600/Splice+Simona_Maicanescu.jpg[/img] and from Terminator:Sarah Connor Chronicles Catherine Weaver portrayed by our lovely Shirley Manson [img=100x100]http://spoilertv.co.uk/images/cache/archived-old-shows/terminator-tscc/season_2/scc_09-shirley-silver_0560_djv1b_FULL.jpg[/img]

I wanted to comment on Barbarella. It was a campy movie but filled with astors that we could recognze, The world centered around Barbarella but sometimes she didn't realize it. My memory is a little faded through the years but I would watch it again. I do recall the opening credirs! Good thread,,

Aye, Ripley and Scully will always hold a special place for me. Has anyone watched Farscape? Aerin Sun is fairly kick-ass. (Though, the character I love most from that show is Rygel, lol!)
