Most of them aren't happy because they're angsty teenage urban fantasy protagonists. There are other genres of stories out there.
SerialKitten666
Katniss is a god awfully written, annoying character who just whines incessantly. Poster child to bring back emo.

Grooseland
Percy and Harry are at least AIMED at teens and kids, so I'd give them a pass. The females are from "Young Adult" novels (HAHA).
TimTheScifiGuy
I did. I said 'most' for that reason. Only have 140 characters to work with, I can't be naming everyone :P
Grooseland
That's true. =P Though it's sad most of the female "heroines" are badly-written YA!tropes. )=
javaMakesMeAnxious
I would like to know why. Are there really not a lot of well written female protagonists, or stories about them just don't get popular?
Grooseland
I WANT to believe that the stories just aren't popular. Otherwise, it's just sad to think no female YA!protagonist is well-written.
Zalophus
I'd just chalk it up to the general population just preferring the tropes.
TimTheScifiGuy
It's that a lot of times writers write -female- characters and not female -characters-. They never do that with men, hence the difference.

ScarletCrawford
Not-Ginny-Weasley from City of Bones and the main character from the Stephenie Meyer movie that wasn't Twilight related.
thehammerismypenis
That helps me exactly not at all.
AgentSuperball
Ah, okay. I vaguely know about the two.
Grooseland
To be honest, I saw none of those things in Tris, either. And Katniss wasn't exactly noble, either, though she did do outstanding things.
Zalophus
The word "or" in there means they don't need to fill all quotas. Katniss was automatically deemed a hero when she volunteered for Prim.
Grooseland
Then turned into a sociopath when she showed empathy for no one other than her or Peeta, nor did she ever reflect on her bad acts.
thehammerismypenis
What a lame definition of a hero. I feel like one heroic act does not a hero make.
Taxicab0428
I'm ok with Katniss because in the context of her story, she isn't special. Just a normal kid who's really good with a bow (1/?)
Taxicab0428
because of practice, and she still is able to "be heroic". Most other teen heroes are special snowflakes, but she isn't (yet, I'll (2/?)

I feel like there are a lot of heroic people in the HP world. Neville, McGonagall, Hermione, Lupin, Sirius, the Weasleys (to name a few).

I meant from the people on this list, and Harry died so they could kill Voldemort, without knowing he'd come back.
doctorbees
Ah yeah, for sure. I thought you meant out of the whole story and I was like wat no.

No, but unlike Katniss, Harry is both advertised as the hero, and IS the hero, where someone like Katniss is goddamned useless.

Deadpool has one of the saddest backstories, and although chipper on the outside he's constantly dealing with extreme depression.

To be fair, I think ANYONE trapped in a dystopian reality has plenty to be unhappy about until the resolution. Even then...
Gatt5u
This makes me feel like you dont read comics. Green lantern literally killed millions of people because he was sad. And The Flash is happy?
wangchangbackup
The point is, plenty of heroes' default emotional state isn't "Superficially dirty gloom."
Gatt5u
The "default" emotions state of everyone in these pictures inst "superficially dirty gloom"... this is the point im trying poorly to make.

Ah, I see what you're saying. I just feel like the heroes I named (and others) are happy unless otherwise provoked, instead of the opposite.

I didn't say "Has never been sad." By and large, Hal has a sunny, never-say-die disposition. And CURRENT Flash is happy enough.

Movie left out a lot of backstory and some events. It was way worse than the book

IMO, no. The movie missed a lot of things in the book, but the book wasn't great either so, yeah.

I think it was alright, slightly predictable, though, but i guess thats okay for a part one.

If you come across it, watch ahead. Little long, somewhat pretty, in general ok. Nothing new or surprising there.

Gotta agree with you on that one. Hate the twilight series, but the Host was a pretty great book.

definitely Stephanie Meyers' best writing to date - twilight kinda backfired; no one will ever take her writing seriously again

Not true, I'm sure if she really wrote something good people would read it. Twilight wasn't that bad though. She just rushed it.

Cassie Claire used to write Draco/Ginny fic and rewrote some of it into her Mortal Instruments book. She also pulled a lot of other crap.

So they are just very very loosely related?

In very loosely related you mean based on the fanfic version of that character, then yes.

well that's how 50 shades of gray started, too, as twilight fanfiction. apparently fanfiction is a good jumping point for making money.

Yooo. Draco/Ginny Sebastian/Cary. I don't suppose her fic is for public viewing??

I'm sure the Draco trilogy is still floating around on the internet. That was Dramione though iirc.
