James Cameron likes strong women

James Cameron likes making films which feature strong women

James Cameron has revealed that he enjoys the challenge of writing films with strong women.

The Canadian filmmaker has directed Titanic, Avatar, Terminator and Aliens, which all feature feisty ladies.

"To me, it's just another challenge. For a man to write a woman and make her interesting to women as well as men, it's a challenge. Maybe it's just a quest to understand women who are sometimes inscrutable," he told The Guardian.

James admitted that Hollywood often gets it wrong.

"I didn't even think it was that remarkable when I did it with Terminator - it's remarkable by its absence in other Hollywood movies," he explained.

"I do think Hollywood movies get it wrong when they show women in action roles - they basically make them men. Or else they make them into superheroes in shiny black suits, which is just not as interesting."

Gemini:

This is a good time to establish a routine. Create a schedule that strikes a nice balance between your personal and professional lives. You're the type of person who needs plenty of intellectual stimulation outside of work. If you've been spending too much time at the office, reduce your hours. This may mean less money, but you can't put a price on happiness. You might even decide to take a job with unconventional hours so you can play sports or spend more time outdoors.More
