    Having written, and directed "Aliens" means Cameron can do NO wrong in my eyes. Plus he designed the Queen!

    Still, why add the boobs if they wouldn't 'really' be there?? Oh well, as a heterosexual male I won't complain. Though the whole her being an alien thing throws it off a bit. #avatar

    @Stream Of Consciousness: Remember, this is the same guy who in "The Abyss" showed that the best way you can revive an unconscious woman is to slap her and scream at her.

    @SpyMagician: True, although I think there was a little more to it than him just wanting to smack a woman around.

    "The Abyss" is another one of my favorites. You must admit, the man can make a damn good movie. imo

    @Stream Of Consciousness: "You must admit..." and "IMO"?

    I admit nothing. He made Aliens and the first two Terminator films were good but outside of that, he’s quite hackish. Titanic is a good movie, but still not anything to make me think he’s some auteur that deserves endless praise.

    This film looks horrible. #avatar

    I'm confused as to why Cameron understands that depictions of superwomen can cause problems in perceptions of real women, yet he delights in perpetuating the problem. #avatar

    @VioletViolet: My thoughts exactly. He knows it makes no sense to give the females breasts, but does it anyway, cause, heh-heh, BOOBIES.

    Straight men just baffle me sometimes.

    Also, how is a Mayan wrap less sensible for a non-mammal boob-having cartoon alien than a Brazilian thong? #avatar

    [Where did my comment go? *scratches head*]

    I distinctly remember seeing Kate Winslet's full-on breast--nipple, areola and all--in "That Boat Movie That Begins With 'T.'" If her breast had been CGI 12 years ago, it would have been censored? REALLY?

    @PaisleyPajamas: I remember reading somewhere that they let it slide because it was done in a dignified way, Kate Winslet wasn't underage (though her character was) and Leonardo DiCaprio's character treated her body with respect, which set a good example. That may have just been an opinion, because why other movies that don't objectify women still aren't allowed nudity is beyond me. #avatar

    @VioletViolet: I see what you're saying, but that doesn't coincide with what has been true for the people who decide these ridiculous things. For them a boob, is a bewb, is a tit, is a knocker, is a...on into infinity. More of the same hypocrisy, I suppose. #avatar
