neutral · AI labelView post →Okay I don’t know the comic character of Taskmaster but I imagine she’s very similar to how Taskmaster was portrayed in the Black Widow movie, in which case I’m not sure how much there is to discover about her
neutral · AI labelView post →The best superhero movies are animated. Best Batman movie? "Under the Red Hood" (2010) Best Superman movie? "All-Star Superman" (2011) Best Hulk movie? "Hulk Vs. Wolverine" (2009) Best Black Widow movie? "Avengers Confidential: Black Widow & Punisher" (2014). Might also be best Punisher film.
neutral · AI labelView post →Just saw Spider-Man:Brand New Day. I liked it. The story was more emotional than I expected, dealing with loneliness, lost love and ultimately reconnecting with society. I loved the out-of-control Hulk design & enjoyed Peter's banters with Punisher and Black Widow. Overall, it was a solid film.
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't care what anyone says. Black Widow is an underrated MCU movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Whenever I talk about the Black Widow XXX movie I think of that one time where I was sitting on Twitch with @jaws-stone.bsky.social telling them about it, and then some dude came in and went „GIRLS WATCH PORN?!!?!!“ and he never recovered for the rest of stream. 💀

Famous for his many gangster roles in film such as SCARFACE, PICK-UP, STOLEN HARMONY, EACH DAWN I DIE, THEY DRIVE BY NIGHT, JOHNNY ANGEL, BLACK WIDOW, A BULLET FOR JOEY, SOME LIKE IT HOT, and more.
neutral · AI labelView post →I’m rewatching Black Widow because, y’know… Thunderbolts, and people were way too hard on this movie when it came out. The action scenes in this movie rock.
positive · AI labelView post →idk man- I think we got him in Fortnite by pure coincidence of them needing a Marvel filler and the Black Widow movie being announced. I wouldn’t hold my breath he gets added to it, someone also made the argument that he has a skull and this is also published in China, so- Udon look if any? At best?
neutral · AI labelView post →In retrospect I think the timing for the Black Widow movie really affected its reception being a lockdown movie, and coming after Endgame. Seeing how influential the characters have been in all the new shows and movies, I think this movie is a lot better than we gave it credit fo
positive · AI labelView post →Five reasons I am looking forward to Thunderbolts*. Okay, it's five different images of the same reason: David Harbour as Red Guardian, including his appearance at ComiCon. One of the pics (with the tattoos) is from the Black Widow movie instead, but... Alexei was and still is a hot daddy bear.
neutral · AI labelView post →A lot of women in the Marvel fandom were very vocal about the lack of equity in treatment of Natasha’s character. We know for a fact that studio execs were actively putting off a Black Widow film. The same ones who fought against other diverse projects like Black Panther being made.
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched Captain America: Civil War over the weekend. I really want to catch up with the MCU movies (yes, this is how far behind I am). Good movie, a bit longer than it needed to be, but it was fun! Black Widow is next chronologically, so I'll be watching it next!

neutral · AI labelView post →Black Widow cameos in X-Men 97 with her 90s look. I've always said it, but had they made a Black Widow or Avengers movie in the 90s, Cynthia Rothrock should have played her.

neutral · AI labelView post →An animated Punisher & Black Widow movie written by Marjorie Liu? Why thank you, Tubi, I think I will!
neutral · AI labelView post →Rewatched Black Widow. Still a mixed bag of a film, and Florence Pugh is easily the standout in the cast. You can tell it wants to be about autonomy and control, but Ray Winstone's villain is very weak, so that gets undermined. The action beats are too OTT for what should be a grounded outing.
neutral · AI labelView post →We people this mad when Captain America had Black Widow in his movie? Or when Thor had Dr. Strange in one of his movies? Or when Shield was in a Thor movie? Or when- You get the point.
neutral · AI labelView post →Great Performances: Birthday Edition Theresa Russell ×4 in Bob Rafelson's diabolical BLACK WIDOW (1987). Dons many wigs & accents on relentless pursuit of wealth thru murder! Debra Winger on her tail, even gets into some homoerotic subtext. Russell is stunning! Happy Birthday 3/20/57! #filmsky 📽

neutral · AI labelView post →Yes, as I say, the product of ONE guy’s obsession. It’s the UK equivalent of Ike Perlmutter’s belief that “women leads don’t sell”: not revealing about a wider truth of the country, just means that the Black Widow movie came out at an odd moment.

neutral · AI labelView post →I really enjoyed it. And it makes the underrated Black Widow a much better film.
positive · AI labelView post →Black Widow was always one of my fav Marvel chars & I loved the Black Widow movie & Thunderbolts. I’m still angry they didn’t kill Hawkeye (the most worthless avenger) instead.
positive · AI labelView post →Jake Schreier says ‘THUNDERBOLTS*’ preserves the legacy of ‘BLACK WIDOW’ but it’s not a sequel film: “I think we're pulling from all of their histories and then trying to tell something new… I think it feels like it's a sampling of people from different parts [of this universe].“ (via Gamesradar)
neutral · AI labelView post →Because Marvel was faffing about instead of giving her the movie just after Iron Man 2. So the moment passed and others did what should have been Black Widow.
neutral · AI labelView post →Btw I bought it in 2020. He was looking for it for THREE WHOLE YEARS and then when the Black Widow movie was announced some nerd somewhere was like WELL TIME TO RESELL THIS ONE.
neutral · AI labelView post →She's an Israeli Black Widow who is inexplicably 1 metre tall, and she will occasionally be a plot device for a plot that isn't in this film any more. No further questions.

neutral · AI labelView post →The Black Widow movie imo makes more sense if it's like, some Soul Stone wish fulfillment thing for Natasha in the afterlife or whatever
neutral · AI labelView post →It's extremely funny that they waited so long to make a Black Widow movie that she gets killed off in the canon and they have be like "whoops, guess it's a prequel now."
neutral · AI labelView post →I think the funniest irony behind film guys hating Feige is he is THE reason movie theatres basically still exist right now. He told Disney to release MCU films in cinemas first for long runs after the Black Widow release disaster, industry SAVED. Literally. Guy lives and breathes cinema.
neutral · AI labelView post →Sixty years ago (tonight) was the premiere of the Batman TV show, and I’m more convinced than ever that TCM could have a “before they were Batman Villains” month. 🧐 Examples: David Wayne (“The Mad Hatter”, film: The Three Faces of Eve) Tallulah Bankhead ("Black Widow", film: Lifeboat) #TCMParty
neutral · AI labelView post →I filed Black Widow under the same heading as Solo of "Disney movie trying to cash in on a beloved character by making a prequel film way too late because the character was killed off in their last movie"
negative · AI labelView post →Look, Black Widow showing a clip from Moonraker tells me the filmmakers on that movie appreciate fun spy movies.
positive · AI labelView post →This moment, in the first Avengers movie, was designed by shot creator Hunter Athey. I remember because I had the scene that follows this: where Black Widow boards the alien skiff and commandeers it. It’s a shame that two important Black Widow sequences were omitted due to time.

negative · AI labelView post →Finally got around to watching Black Widow and boy that sure is some overwrought orchestration for a fairly thin film. At least we got Yelena out of it.
neutral · AI labelView post →Still my favorite MCU film. Evan's work to humanize an idealized heroic figure like Steve Rogers is under-praised, and SJ is so good as Black Widow that it's still baffling that they couldn't manage a James Bond in a world of supers movie she deserved.

neutral · AI labelView post →We did get a real Black Widow movie with Scarlett. I watched it in the theaters three times. Bought the DVD too. It's on Disney+
positive · AI labelView post →Reminds me of how in the Black Widow movie in a flashback to the 90's, one of the girls has a Twilight Sparkle Beanie Baby, presumably because the prop department thought "It's a fucking My Little Pony, they had those back then" Also that anachronistic Ultra Magnus figure in Stranger Things S1 lol
neutral · AI labelView post →It's kinda crazy that Yelena is one of the biggest characters in the MCU even though she's only got not much over 100 appearances in the comics and honestly a lot of that after Flo first played her in the Black Widow movie.
