Mmm, I think you can find as many women in command in movies from the last 10 years than all the years since the invention of cinema. It became a Hollywood trope after being the exception that made the rule.
Now, there have been so many polls about women in command, girl-power and all that, maybe it would be interesting to find something to focus on: do you mean women who command men? or women as rulers or leaders?
Ever since the Oscars started, actresses were nominated for playing queens and political leaders so just checking the Wikipedia Page of Best Actress category you might find enough material to make two polls about the subject :)
Or you can check AFI's lists of villains and heroes, and it's interesting to have heroines and female villains in the same lists, but I'm not sure I'd like to be friend with someone who enjoys Annie Wilkes because she's in command lol.
Anyway, this is not exactly a niche poll, so I'm only encouraging you to find new parameters to decrease the number of entries (oscar nomination, Top 250 movies, AFI characters), believe me, the simpler, the better!
