Very true. That said there isn't a single Wonder Woman rogue that I'd say I love whereas with most heroes I can find at least one or two. I feel the same with Iron Man. He's got some cool villains, but none of them are great IMHO.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

I was totally thinking about IM as a good example of this as well.

I'd be up for Cheetah or Circe. Dr. Psycho maybe was never really into him.

Medusa would probably be my personal pick. A fight with the Gorgan could be amazing ala the Rucka Run.

Cameron is an idiot. Stick to making the women in your own movies how you'd like and quit preaching from your moral high ground about other people's work. So tired of these self-aggrandizing Hollywood types that think they're smarter than everyone else.

James Cameron critique was doomed from the start. It didn't help that it really made no sense and Patty Jenkins comeback was good. I do have this issue with the "no one from any other tribe can ever understand or critique me" I think this is just a shield from justified criticism which was part of Patty Jenkins response. However I do agree totally that James Camerons idea that a strong women can only be shown in one way, which is ridiculous. Maybe it wasn't his intention but thats how it came off. It also comes off as "raining on someones parade" frankly. Honestly he needs to concentrate on making all those Avatar movies nobody asked for until Disney decided to make a park. I remember no outcry for Avatar 2 let alone the other 3 I think they are going to make. Thats a whole topic in of itself.
