Black Widow Movie : Yea or Nay?
[QUOTE=QuinnFillory;3371462]As of yesterday, we may finally be getting a Black Widow movie. After hearing the news, I went everywhere online to see just how hyped everyone was about it. I mean, she is technically the main female of the MCU. However, it seems to me that the reaction so far has been kind of lukewarm. Is it just me? Is anyone actually excited for this film? And if not, why? As for me, I'll watch the movie, even though I wasn't one of those screaming for her get? one.[/QUOTE].
I thought I left a comment here yesterday but I see it not. I feel despite the character being in Iron Man and Avengers it and SJ's performance didn't stand out to fans or the general audience. Basically the character was shoehorned in to Avengers because I can only guess the Pym's in any version were held hostage for the ridiculously long time it took Ant Man to launch. Because this character was a Soviet Era assassin first and foremost and not a true spy any reference to her villainess role would have to be explained to the general audience. Fans already know the history. As a film it would have to stand up against the film and TV versions of 3 Nikita's, the Amerikans, Fringe, and Homeland at the very least. Add Superheroes into the mix and all I can say is lots of Luck.Not impossible to do well but not easy.
