Black Widow will get solo movie

[BAZ]

Personally beyond her looks...I think she is the most boring and weakest character in the Avengers movies.

Wasp gets that honour for me.

Because of the age we are in everything has to now be femalecentric. Ghostbusters, Starwars, Bats v Supes, Preacher, and of course the Avengers would fall in line with a character that will have been in seven or more movies by then that nobody is really clamoring to watch.

I have a solution, a package deal with her big green f buddy and they go fight aliens with her bossing him around much like this

Everybody wins. Apart from DC.

Mult-layered? What exactly in her personality or performance is so called multi-layered? Her orange hair?

As for her on screen fighting, I laugh because even though she is in the midst of bullets and everything else flying and she isn't wearing any protective armor, she NEVER get's hit. Not her body, arm, leg, anything. So lame.

She's just that good. Surely you can appreciate someone that can dodges bullets like Remo Williams and looks so darn good doing it.

But can she catch bullets like Bruce Leroy or Superfuzz

Catching bullets is not any kind of special skill. I invite you to walk around the streets of downtown Chicago at night to find out just how easy it is.

Catching bullets with your teeth without injury like the characters I mentioned?

Also done by Austin Powers and Ace Ventura... and busted by Discovery Channel's Mythbusters.

Austin Powers and Ace Ventura were fake.

Bruce Leroy and Superfuzz were real in the movies.

Tough crowd.

Scarlett Johansson was good casting in my opinion. I can't think of a 'name' actress who would've been a good alternative outside of Kate Beckinsale (or Stana Katic?) who would've fit the profile of an athletic, multi-layered, young but mature, highly cunning, intelligent, and beautiful redheaded Russian super spy. Jessica Biel would've looked killer in Widow's S.H.I.E.L.D. uniform. So would Jessica Alba but she would've given off a more wholesome aura than the role demands I think. Milla Jovovich has the genes that fit the character almost perfectly but I think she has drained the action heroine niche portion of her career almost dry.

A super spy ex-assassin with stun weapons should never outshine Norse demi-gods, gamma enhanced beings or people wearing nearly impenetrable armor with embedded arsenals. I think Johannson has held her own. She's taken out a dozen armed men by herself (Happy didn't really help her all that much), fought alien infantry on the ground and air, came within a inch or two of blowing off the Winter Soldier's head by herself, and freed The Vision's birthing chamber being held in a flying 18-wheeler trailer, among others.

I like her more than some do. Hopefully, her movie will highlight her origin in depth. Avengers: Age of Ultron touches on it a bit but leaves a lot unsaid. Perhaps show how Clint and Natasha met and forged their lifelong friendship? Or how she became a super valuable asset for Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D.? There are a number of angles they could go at Romanoff in the movie. I've been a big proponent of action movies with female leads ever since Aliens. Hopefully this movie will deliver for Johansson and up her appreciation index among movie fans.

All the ones commenting and poopooing it... WILL SEE IT!

Just so they can poopoo some more in a new thread about her. Lol

I'm honestly not sure where such a movie could go on the big screen, so I will sit back in "wait and see mode". Could be anywhere from excellent to underwhelming depending on the content.

Quite honestly.
Iron Man was a big hit and launched marvel but those movies could have been better.
Part 3 teased great "they'll never..... See...... Me...... Coming"..... and then this fudgin guy comes out of the toilet, "don't go in there"

Capt America - better than I thought but nowhere near great.

Hulks just blew chunks


So... Bring the bad arse red headed vixen "I want one!".... NO!

Etc,... Etc....

Launched Marvel in what way? I ask because Iron Man wasn't Marvel Comics first huge box office hit.

Weren't they saying that the success of RDJ and HIS IRONMAN paved the way for the onslaught of movies?
Thought it was someone on here Actually...

Oh. I see what you're saying and you're right. Downey and Iron Man bolstered a string of current big screen successes for Marvel. However, neither Downey nor Iron Man illuminated Marvel Comics as a highly viable source for commercial success. That distinction was made by another film. It's one of your favorites by the way.

So... I was basically right... Or whoever said it was...

Your post was just noise lol

Nothing significant happened for Marvel on the big screen before Iron Man. Toby MaGuire and Spider-Man didn't help establish a huge motion picture presence for Marvel Comics years before the Crimson Avenger hit the big screen. All credit falls on Robert Downey Jr. and company.

Revisionist history. Sorry. My bad. "Noise."

The Blade trilogy did alright.

True. I wish the third movie had a better script. It had Jessica Biel though.

Apparently Snipes was just impossible to deal with on the third one.
