Sad to see Disney doing this if the allegations are true. I was really hoping that Black Widow would be a massive hit (tracking in early 2020 was predicting a massive box office near or at $1...

Thanks for the summary. It’s cool that Yelena’s profile has been raised by the movie. However, even as a Widow fan I’ve found Yelena’s history over the past decade and a half confusing as hell. It’s...

Same day streaming was announced a while ago so I doubt this is taking anyone by surprise. More likely, Disney doesn’t want to pay up and Scarlett’s lawyers were waiting for box office numbers to...

She has a right to enforce the terms of her contract. AFAIK, getting a cut of the box office isn’t a common stipulation and it is usually the big stars who can negotiate that. If Disney wanted to...

Hulk wasn’t used exceptionally well in Endgame. The main ongoing dilemma over Banner’s struggle to control and coexist with the Hulk was resolved offscreen in a way that basically dismissed it. He...

Hey, does anyone know what happened to the Black Widow: Widow’s Sting miniseries by Ralph Macchio? It was announced back in January for an original April start. Now I can’t even find it on ComiXology...

Real glad Nat is getting another mini so quickly after the last one apparently didn’t sell so well. I liked that one but it also dealt with some icky subject matter which might not have helped with...

Yeah, what they did to Natasha in Endgame was not just wasteful but very poorly timed. It took years to get around to a Black Widow solo movie. Endgame would’ve been a great way to showcase Natasha...

Yes, a point could be made that this was clearing her "ledger" or that she was repaying Clint for what he'd done for her. I can agree with that but I don't see how that's the only path forward for...

They made the narrative. Chucking someone off the cliff to get the Soul Stone is literally an arbitrary, made up rule. Complying with it without question is also taking the Red Skull, an actual Nazi...

Is the moment a bit forced? Maybe depending on opinion, but it shouldn't be derided in a movie full of other blatant fan service moments.

What felt wrong to me was them doing this triumphant...

So apparently an early draft or outline of the script had Clint dying instead. But after reading that draft, the visual effects producer spoke with Markus and McFeely to convince them not to "take...

I just don’t get it because these are the same writers and directors who did so well with her in The Winter Soldier.

It reminds me of Joss Whedon, who knocked it out of the park with her in the...

ENDGAME thoughts:

Really liked the movie overall, but also really disappointed that they basically fridged Nat in the same place they fridged Gamora. Both of them stayed dead at the end.

I was...

The “formula” is pretty broad:

-Balance action with humor. Make the movies fun and safe for a wide audience including families with kids. Create an optimistic world that people would want to be...

They made it plenty real. She had the third most screen time in both Avengers movies and Joss Whedon was open about how much effort he put into the character. The writers for The Winter Soldier and...

You are completely glossing over her character and focusing on appearances and surface details. Why does the red hair, the tight black suit, and the hotness get mention but not the fact that she's a...

It's selective, self-contradictory, BS diversity that falls very short. To this day, Marvel Studios, with its repeated claims of diversity, does not want East Asian characters. They all but admit...

There's a difference though:

Changing Mordo from white to black increases diversity in a franchise that is mostly white, partially because the comic book source material came during a time that...

There's being willing to acknowledge mistakes, and then there's going out of your way to trash the marketing of your comic books and blockbuster film to pander to disgruntled vocal fanboys.

I...

This series has definitely been art-driven so far, like the Edmondson/Noto run that came just before it. I can understand the comments about the sparseness of the dialogue, but I'm still enjoying the...

Yeah, I think they're definitely going to observe how Wonder Woman does, as well as Scarlett's Ghost in a Shell.

It still shows the undeserved scrutiny that female stars face in Hollywood. The...

Yeah, after so many noncommital answers, I think a definate confirmation is long overdue. I'm really glad though Feige finally took a step forward on this. He's putting a bit more heat on himself and...

Exactly. The Ancient One is hardly a political character from what I know about him. China accepts Captain America even with current tensions between out countries.

I also hate the reasoning that...

Marvel took a chance on Star Lord, and had to change a lot about him just to get him on film. He was far less of a sure thing.
