Scarlett Johansson remains adamant that Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow’s death in the Marvel Cinematic Universe should not be undone.
You must log in or # to comment.
MCU doesn’t need to bring her back, they have fantastic 4, x-men, and all their villains to handle now. Enough to make another 20 years of movies.
Even the actors are exhausted with the MCU.
I mean, that’s the negative POV. It may simply be that she said goodbye to the character and has no interest in revisiting it again
It’s the same effing thing over and over. Same with dinsey beating the dead corpse of Star Wars. Don’t they have any new, different ideas? Or are they gonna make 5000000000000 movies about the same shit?
Disney paid $4.05 billion for star wars. you bet your bottom dollar they’re going to beat that dead horse until there’s nothing left
Have you ever read comic books?
I read them both.
I, too, have read all two Marvel comic books.
Ooh, they have another one?
Nope
I mean, I feel the same way about character deaths. It’s an overused trope. Let’s have them quietly working in the background, like a capable spy would, eh? I think comics should have long ago embraced having their superheroes ‘retire’ by simply being background mentions from time to time, rather than have big dramatic deaths and torch passing.
The second option
But… but we’re still waiting for the Black Widow and Deadpool crossover…
I would watch a whole sitcom in the style of “Married With Children” with Natashas sleeper agent family.
If they really want her back, they’ll do it. “Whoa, I can’t believe the Russians cloned her, then turned her into a man, then the obvious dysphoria stemming from it caused her to turn traitor and join shield. I can’t believe she looks completely different now!” Far from the weirdest comic plot line
RDJ being Dr. Doom makes me think it’s just going to be Tony Stark “but what if he was evil” since Iron Man and Dr. Doom have relatively similar schticks. (Keyword: relatively. Nobody should read this and feel the need to tell me why they’re different. I only mean they’re both egotistical geniuses in metal armor.)
There actually was a storyline where Viktor stole Tony’s body and life. Leaving Tony with amnesia in his body and deported back to latveria. Except Viktor Tony became a good version of doom and Tony Viktor became an evil iron man.
This is just me, but I always felt her acting talents were wasted in the MCU. Same with Brie Larson.
They got her early. She had a few solid credits to her name when she did Iron Man 2, but the smart MCU move at that point was to recruit young-ish talent and get them signed on for multi-movie contracts relatively cheap. Hopefully what we all get out of that sort of arrangement is that talented actors make enough MCU money to go off and do whatever out-there artsy stuff that creatively appeals to them and fosters their talents, rather than having to plug away in garbage movies just to pay the bills.
She was definitely a name before Ironman 2 with movies like “Lost in Translation”, “The Island”, “Girl with a pearl earring”, “Black Dahlia” to name a few.
I remember people being excited about seeing her in Ironman 2.
You are right that they grabbed cheaper people originally, but they werent unknown names.
They brought her back over and over in the What If? series.
Maybe the real issue is that the whole MCU just needs to die.
Every Marvel hero I like has died and come back multiple times. Why should Black Widow be any different? It doesn’t make them less of a hero. It doesn’t diminish their sacrifice. It just allows the character to continue being loved in new stories.
Maybe they shouldn’t bring people back, so a death actually means something.
As director she gave us several glorious ass shots to remember her by. Her work here is done.
She’s just so goddamn hot. Love a strong, capable redhead.
I usually don’t say these things out loud
It’s time you started! We should be more open about positivity in the world today
Gross and weird
It’s weird to think Scarlett Johansson is strong and capable? Lol
Complimenting people is gross, you’re supposed to just quietly shit on them while praising their accomplishments as long as they themselves are flaw free humans.
It’s really sad how afraid people are to give compliments. It’s not creepy, and it often makes people’s day better. We should all be uplifting one another, not tearing each other apart.
It’s weird to say you think celebrities are super hot in public
It’s an open forum
Yeah which is why I can express my opinion that saying that is weird and gross. Open forums go both ways.
Could’ve phrases that better if that’s what you meant, which might explain people down voting.
But yeah perfectly fine, but if berating slightly pervy people on the internet is your thing then there’s plenty of work cut out for you.
When did black widow die? Either i didn’t bother to see the movie or i forgot
Lol nobody clamoring for you to come back lady, you’re the forgettable avenger
People downvote this a lot, but the “writers” have to bend over backwards to find a way to make her useful. Imagine she was a guy and didn’t bring the sex appeal and the ass shots. Disney adults would boo him in the cinema.
Then explain Hawkeye
