theCapraAegagrus Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Easily the least interesting movie ever announced for the MCU. Until any details emerge I will have literally no interest. Black Widow, despite being a good human character, is entirely useless to me in the MCU. The fact that The Avengers have "weak ones" is so laughable. I hate it.

Black Widow is in that Ant-Man category in that it will definately make money, but are any of us really going to get that excited? I would have the same feeling if they announced a Hawkeye movie. Give me a Silver Surfer or Adam Warlock movie instead. Lucky Baru 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a Silver Surfer or Adam Warlock movie instead. Ant-Man at least has power. Black Widow is just an attractive "spy". The Ant-Man movies weren't "highly" anticipated by me, but that 1st Ant-Man trailer was so f^&*ing good. AM&TW was too close to Infinity War for me to get hyped. With everything that the Russo Bros did in The Winter Solider, I fail to see how another spy thriller in the MCU can draw interest. It's already been done, and with better supporting characters (Rogers and Barnes). The further that the MCU delves into the cosmic elements, the less interesting normal human characters become. Black Widow and Hawkeye are so boring and useless. Just kill them off already. The fact that Thanos didn't murder Romanoff in Wakanda is puzzling. Even Falcon is borderline boring. And I don't want to keep seeing "flashback" movies. We're getting some 90's SHIELD in Captain Marvel. That's fine. I don't want to see more past timelines because it doesn't affect the future of the MCU. I'm interested in what's happening now. Edit: Elizabeth Olsen is hotter than Scarlett Johansson. Scarlet Witch movie would be better. Edited October 12, 2018 by TwoPiece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Seeing that I just landed a couple of copies of TOS #52 in a collection, I think this will be an amazing movie and everyone needs copies of BW's first appearance.

Artboy99 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) I am looking forward to this if they do in fact make it. I enjoyed Red Sparrow, and that was a film about a female Russian spy. It has potential if they focus on the spy/ espionage side and perhaps have no other superheros in the film. Or maybe one who is hunting/ tracking her and that could be Hawkeye, or Bucky or someone like that.

To who though? i would agree, BP is far more interesting to me, but quite a lot of people will be salivating at this, esp if it's as good as Marvel is always capable of.

Everyone I've ever talked to lol. Black Widow is your run-of-the-mill human spy with touches of good (and bad) luck. Black Panther is a king, and an enhanced warrior, something truly imaginative. Even my friend, who's favorite comic character of all-time is Black Widow, admits that BP is a more interesting character to see on the big screen.

thunsicker Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Considering Winter Soldier was my favorite MCU movie to date I could see this working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this is the problem. A character shouldn't generate hype for their gender. A character should generate hype for being relative, inspiring, or something meaningful, etc. Wonder Woman was mostly a good movie because of its titular character, story, and direction. Not because Diana Prince and Gal Gadot are females. Black Widow and Hawkeye are equally crappy characters within the MCU. I don't discriminate.

For a lot of women, this is that. There is a lack in representation. This movie could help to fill that void a little.

She's a triple-crossing spy, who falls over herself in servitude of organizations that she thinks will help "wipe her ledger", while doing nothing special in the stories she's represented in. Again, a character should generate hype for everything outside of their gender. Lack of representation for women, really? Scarlet Witch, Gamora, Nebula, Mantis, Okoye, Shuri, The Ancient One, Pepper (from Day 1), upcoming Captain Marvel? Black Widow does not need a solo film. The MCU doesn't need an origin story for a character introduced a decade ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't a valid response to any of my questions or statements... Aside from Captain Marvel, none of the above characters are interesting enough for a solo movie. That's the point. I love how you gloss over the entirety of my post, to introduce new dialogue, without first addressing what we were already discussing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
