Live Poll: Favorite Movie Heroine of 2018
Although women fill less than one third of speaking roles and represent less than one third of named characters in movies, several strong and memorable female protagonists have come to life throughout cinematic history. To celebrate the emergence of more bold, brave, and colorful women and girls, which of these heroines from 2018 is your favorite?
*Suggestions very welcome* (Inclusion criteria: feature film, released in 2018 and not on last year's poll, with an IMDb rating of at least 6.0 or a Metacritic rating of at least 60; women must not be portrayed in a stereotypical, objectifying, or misogynist way) Thank you.
List: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls047359101/

You can make a poll about female heroines, about female villains, about strong female characters, but think about that: can you make a poll about female losers? I mean "losers" in the likable and cinematically appealing meaning of the word, losers like the Dude Lebowski, like Dumb and Dumber, like Travis Bickle... I'll try to make a list right now but all I can think of are Gena Rowlands in A Woman Under the Influence, Ellen Burstyn in Requiem for a Dream, Margot Robbie in I, Tonya... well maybe we can work it out...

FYC (from India):
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5935704/mediaviewer/rm2691256576
Deepika Padukone as Queen Padmavati in Padmaavat (2018) [Biopic]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alia Bhatt as Sehmat in Raazi (2018)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7465992/mediaviewer/rm1989758208
Keerthi Suresh as Savitri in Mahanati (2018) [Biopic]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6588966/mediaviewer/rm11555328
Rani Mukerji as Naina Mathur in Hichki (2018)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please Note: Very few movies from India or subcontinents get Metascore rating. Among these 4 FYCs, only #1 has got a 60+ Metascore. But, it'll be great if you add these. These are the most notable female performances from India in 2018.

The girl from "Rampage." (Can't remember her name!) If it wasn't for her, there would've been no anecdote for the animals.

I do think you could easily fill the answer pool though with both popular and well-regarded heroines. I listed some additional options that should be at least in the discussion. I might limit Black Panther to one or two options and Avengers: Infinity War to one or none, as there are too many strong leading options.

1.) The movie must have been been released in the United States by 15 December, 2018. (For example: 'On the Basis of Sex' (released 11 January, 2019) and 'If Beale Street Could Talk' (released in some U.S. cities 25 December, 2018) are, therefore, not included but will be in next year's poll.
2.) If a character was included in the 2017 poll, it will not be included in this year's poll, regardless of release date.
3.) No animated characters.

Also, if anyone has seen any of 2018's superhero movies or blockbusters, more feedback would be helpful: I rarely see either and although I've gotten some great feedback, 'the more perspectives the better.
Thank you!

Would this poll be less interesting without the preconceived notion in the head-strings:
?
No matter whether the above is a pro-male assert, or a hidden suffragistic slogan to act against such a situation... Cinematography is mostly beloved for its close-to-real perfomances, so I feel as if a half of all women all over the world become dead in a moment after that statement.
