My "Female Expendables" List

Sigourney Weaver -> Sylvester Stallone
Milla Jovovich/Uma Thurman -> Jason Statham
Michelle Yeoh -> Jet Li
Pam Grier -> Terry Crews
Cynthia Rothrock ->Dolph Lundgren
Zoe Bell/Sarah Michelle Gellar -> Randy Couture
Jamie Lee Curtis-> Mickey Rourke
Michelle Pfeiffer/Madonna -> Bruce Willis
Linda Hamilton -> Arnold Schwarzenegger
Angelina Jolie/Lori Petty -> Eric Roberts
Lucy Lawless/Daryl Hannah-> Steve Austin
Tia Carrere/Salma Hayek -> David Zayas

As directed by Katheryn Bigelow, because a separate director is exactly what the male version needed.

Maybe not action stars, but honorable mentions for being badasses at life:
-Anjelica Huston, you can just be queen of the set. You don't have to do anything, just ooze your influence over everyone.
-Geena Davis (Between Beetlejuice and The Fly, I just cain't getchoo outta my mind, baybee.)
-Debbie Harry (You punk queen, you.)
-Judy Dench (She already gets to be 'M', people)
-Sharon Stone (Ugh, it's so hard to NOT choose some people... My heart is shaped like the alien hand in Total Recall for this woman.)
-Tina Turner (Her fabulousnessness prevents her from joining a miscellaneous cast.)
-Angela Basset (If Pam Grier weren't already your hero...)
-Juliette Lewis (If I were more convinced you could be action-oriented, instead of just crazy...)
-Hilary Swank (You were a Karate Kid, and for that, you must be respected.)
-Demi Moore
-Lucy Liu
-Karen Allen
-Margot Kidder

...this list is starting to lose its relevance. Good night.
