Inspired by James Cameron's recent arguments against Wonder Woman, and in favour of his own creation, Sarah Connor; I have decided to do a little analysis of my own. Here I will be performing something of a comparison between the two, and trying to present my arguments about their merits in their roles as both women, and action heroes.
This post will be a bit more formal, than my usual posts, as I will be attempting to put forward an actual argument, rather than just giving my impression of something. For each of these characters I will be examining their differing goals and motivations, how sympathetically the narrative treats these goals, and the general attitudes of the characters themselves.
Since this is an analysis rather than a review, there will probably be spoilers for both films ahead.
