James Cameron claims “all of the self-congratulatory back-patting Hollywood’s been doing over Wonder Woman has been so misguided.”

The Terminator director told The Guardian in a new interview that the Patty Jenkins blockbuster is just “male Hollywood doing the same old thing” on account of the fact that he feels Wonder Woman as a character is “an objectified icon.”

“I’m not saying I didn’t like the movie but Nicolas Gaitan World Cup Jersey , to me, it’s a step backwards,” Cameron said.

Cameron is notable for putting actresses at the forefront of his action films, from Linda Hamilton’s Sarah Connor in Terminator and T2 to Sigourney Weaver’s Ripley in Aliens (that character originated in Ridley Scott’s 1979 blockbuster Alien). But according to the filmmaker Nahuel Guzman World Cup Jersey , Connor has an edge on Wonder Woman when it comes to authenticity.

“Sarah Connor was not a beauty icon,” he said. “She was strong, she was troubled, she was a terrible mother Matias Kranevitter World Cup Jersey , and she earned the respect of the audience through pure grit. And to me, [the benefit of characters like Sarah] is so obvious. I mean, half the audience is female!”

Cameron is currently at work on the four sequels to 2009’s Avatar, with shooting expected to begin in September.

Wonder Woman has a sequel planned for Dec. 19 Mariano Andujar World Cup Jersey , 2019, with Gadot on board to return as the lasso-wielding heroine.

Wuhan (China) (AFP) - Li Na's Grand Slam wins did miraculous things for tennis in China but a cultural shift away from central planning towards individual development is needed if the country is to emerge as a powerhouse, experts say.

Tangible evidence of tennis's growth in China comes in the form of the Wuhan Open's new, 15,000-seat stadium Jonathan Maidana World Cup Jersey , opened by Li last month, which has a similar capacity to Wimbledon's Centre Court.

Steady crowds and the presence of 12 Chinese players in the women's top 200 -- behind only Russia, the United States and the Czech Republic -- also demonstrate tennis's upward trajectory.

Much of the growth is directly attributable to Li, Asia's first Grand Slam singles champion who won two major titles before she retired on the eve of last year's inaugural Wuhan Open.

But many observers believe China's next Grand Slam winner could be as many as 10 years away Javier Pastore World Cup Jersey , with the dominance of the state-run sports system hampering players' development.

Simon Chadwick, professor of sport business strategy at Britain's Coventry University Business School, suggests China needs a cultural rethink which will not sit comfortably with the authorities.
