Why where those characters written that way whereas the female characters are consistently presented as wise and heroic? Because Joseph Campbell has been jettisoned in favor of promoting what I don't hesitate to call toxic identity politics.
It's… not an assault on men dude. You are forgetting that the status quo in films has always been to exclusively present the men as wise and heroic, and women as emotional or manipulative. By your logic wouldn't THAT be toxic identity politics in the other direction?
That wasn't the status quo for good movies. Good movies portray women and men as they are, and sometimes they're wise and heroic and sometimes they're emotional and manipulative.
