Eh, kinda wish that Mary Jane Watson was in the Spider-Man movies (although they have been doing fine as is). Also, most of the romantic relationships in the MCU movies seem really underdone, esp. in comparison to the non-romantic ones ones (e.g. Captain America and Black Widow, Scott Lang and Cassie Lang, the Guardians, Phil Coulson with Melinda May and Quake, Captan Marvel and Maria Rambeau). (Only ones that stick out in my mind as working pretty dang well as is are Ant-Man (Scott Lang)/Wasp (Hope van Dyne), Fitz/Simmons, and Peter Quill/Gamorra.

I don't know.

I don't hate it, but I don't think Hulk/Black Widow does much.

And who is your favorite POST SNAP COUPLE/TEAMUP

Probably Captain America and Black Widow, although Thor and Rocket had a good double act; all the other ones were broken in the snap or are MIA as of right now.

I wish the movies would've done better by Betty Ross/Sharon Carter/Sif as love interests then they ended up doing.

HulkWidow was definitely a misfire, especially given that Hulk lacked any significant appearances outside of the Avengers movies until Thor Ragnarock.

I like Hulk/Widow, and honestly was surprised no one picked up on it in the first Avengers movie, where yes they were already hinting at it, though it was prolly so miniscule that a minimum of a ship tease. The progress of their relationship in Avengers 2 was too fast considering both of them don't have solo movies where they could actually develop it. Better IMO to have dialed it back in 2, and have Banner or Widow realize they have more feelings for each other in their respective individual appearances in either Winter Soldier and Ragnarok, and finally post-IW/Endgame, they can have their moment of defining their relationship in a reduced roster that allows the movie to have time to actually focus on them organically.

But you know, now it's too late for that so whatever.

Wanda/Vision hinges too much on their long established canon relationship to be honest? Like it's automatically accepted in the MCU because it's just the legacy status quo and no one questions it. I liked how it's portrayed further in Civil War, I think that was a good way to showcase the development of their relationship + boundaries and what not. But timejumping 3 years into IW, and they have progressed further, but because IW was packed there was no one actually commenting on the ethics of their relationship, or anything? I was still wondering if Vision counted as an actual person or property of Tony in CW, and I'm still wondering about that by IW. It's been given significant screentime to be developed properly, but I have always wondered why absolute zero other people even comment on it. Like it's not even that they find it awkward, they just flat-out don't acknowledge it's the least bit weird, and that's weird in itself (he's AI, also technically 6 years old, both of them derive powers from the Mind Gem which may or may not have affected their attraction to each, nobody comments on any of this?)

Also I wish having Wanda around didn't make Vision the absolute worse MCU Avenger because he refuses to do useful **** or is utterly useless cos emotions or something.

For the last time, Michelle is obviously meant to be MJ. And before anyone says anything, none of the characters in Homecoming were like their originals. None of them!

that's kind of a shame. i don't mind Michelle as MJ. but these latest spider-man movies are definitely for a different audience. and i love the updated Aunt May. but there was no nostalgia factor in it, for me. his sidekick definitely didn't need to be named "Ned." and Flash is just not very satisfying as a bully. it does not feel like the spider-verse.

p.s. they should ask Stephen Colbert to be J Jonah Jameson. i think he might have something special to add.

[EmperorDoom]

Bucky and Natasha. It’s slightly been hinted at, but they need to make this happen.

if they ever do anything with the Defenders characters again, Danny and Misty would be my choice. Disliked that they had Luke/Misty and Danny/Colleen.

[gurkle]

I'm hoping the implications of the Wanda/Vision relationship will be part of their series and that there will be characters who are prejudiced against them. It was weird to me that no one in the movies ever seems to think it's strange that a human and an AI are in love. Maybe they didn't have time in these overstuffed movies and maybe it's just that there was no character around who could be such a jerk as to question their relationship. That's why it would have helped to have Quicksilver alive.

In general the MCU has a poor record with love interests for its leads. It's a shame because romance is such an important part of Marvel comics, but the movies move so fast that they never have the patience to develop a romance in any way, so we have to take it on faith that most of these characters are attracted to each other.
