You'd think people would know better by now than to mess with Wonder Woman. Apparently,Neglected wife movie - Jumpin at the Bedside (1976) though, James Cameron didn't get the memo – he's been running around town criticizing the recent movie at every opportunity.
And now Wonder Woman herself is coming for him.

Cameron first spoke out against Wonder Womanin August, blasting Gal Gadot's representation of the character as an "objectified icon" who marked a "step backwards" for female representation in Hollywood.
He went on to decry the "self-congratulatory back-patting" surrounding the movie ... right before he patted himself on the back, in what some might call a self-congratulatory manner, for creating a realfeminist icon in the form of Terminator's Sarah Connor.
Yeah, take a minute. 🙄
Cameron's comments inspired Jenkins to issue a response on Twitter, in which she pointed out that women don't always "have to be hard, tough, and troubled to be strong."

Cameron, however, hasn't changed his mind. In fact, he doubled down on his Wonder Womanremarks earlier this week while speaking to The Hollywood Reporter.
"I'll stand by that," he said. "I mean, she was Miss Israel, and she was wearing a kind of bustier costume that was very form-fitting. She's absolutely drop-dead gorgeous. To me, that's not breaking ground. They had Raquel Welch doing stuff like that in the '60s."
He also took a minute to talk again about how much better Linda Hamilton's Sarah Connor was than Gadot's Wonder Woman. Because we can't like both characters for different reasons, I guess? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
