Live Poll: Pretty Dress, Bloody Mess, Kill the Stress!

Intro: 

Elegance meets survival. They look flawless, but fight ruthless. Whether in silk, lace, or sleek designer jeans, they face fear head on, no armor, no mercy, no second chances. What starts as beauty turns into brutality as they outthink, outfight, and outlast everything thrown at them. These are not victims. These are battle angels in disguise. Who owned the bloodbath with the strongest will, the sharpest instincts, and the coldest nerve? For joining the discussion, please click here. Please note: All movies in the list stand for the eventually whole franchises.

Suggestions: 

As in the list. Young, beautiful fighting women. Casual clothing or best dinner dress, wedding dress. Fight like the devil. No movies below 5/10, better 6+/10. The idea is really about putting naive or inexperienced characters into situations where they suddenly have to defend themselves. That’s why it’s “Velvet and Silk and Casual”-like- I’m excluding military personnel and secret agents.

@Scholle2008​ 

Thank you for pointing out, Scholle. I don't know how I could miss They Will Kill You. ;)For Nikita and Point of no Return, that's not exactly what I had in mind. These women are professional hit(wo)men. Since there is also Atomic Blonde on the list, I'll put them on the list. But I'm not really happy with these. Maybe you'll have still have some other? Anyway thank you for the help. :D

I’ve thought about it for a while and have changed my mind. The idea is really about putting naive or inexperienced characters into situations where they suddenly have to defend themselves. That’s why it’s “Velvet and Silk and Casual”-like- I’m excluding military personnel and secret agents for now - they might get their own polls later. Anyway, thanks for They Will Kill You, excellent example! :D

Yay, you're so right! I remember when Tony Stark first met The Widow in Iron Man 2. I can  remember Tony Stark when he first met the Widow going into the ring with his buddy Happy. That's the feeling I have when I see strong women. I like it when they do not submit into their "fate", like the dumb chicks. They should punch and kick and hit and scratch and bite and shoot when they are threatened. I want to see them protect themselves well.  So like these movies, too. I always laugh when they beat out the crap of the bad guys. And Romanova looked so well when she did! I love strong women, I want to feel their presence. Samantha Weaving looked so nice in her bloody Wedding dress in Ready or no. Winstead was the hell of a beauty in Kate. Even though she smoked cigarette in that movie, which I find disgusting on all people - no matter who.

Rothrock is great, although her voice is a little too sweet, somehow. But maybe she's just a sweet person ... that could beat the crap out of us both - together. She really is an icon for women to not give up and reach the crown status. 8th Dan grandmaster. That's much!

Sissy Spacek as Carrie White in Carrie?  Niave and innocent girl in a prom dress ends up killing hundreds and being covered in blood at the high school prom.  That would get my vote if it were there.

How did I miss her? Of course! You're totally right! A little bad that you're late. I'll add her and ask for a re-push. I guess she would have grabbed more voices than she does now. ;)
