I don’t understand how there’s no Black Widow movie. A little girl being taught to be a spy from childhood. Destroying her youth and innocence and learning to kill. Competing against 27 other girls to stay alive. Being pushed to the breaking point morally, physically, and emotionally. Seeing The Red Room forge her into a weapon. The beginning of her career – assassinating diplomats, manipulating prisoners of Russia, outsmarting SHIELD. Backstory to Drakov, Sal Paulo, the hospital fire, and Budapest. And then a rookie SHIELD agent has her in sight on his scopes. His finger is in the trigger, but he hesitates. She looks scared. She looks tired. She looks like a fighter. So, he brings her in, and takes her under his wing.
From a child assassin to a Russian defector. And they could throw Bucky and Yelena in there, along with Clint and Fury, and maybe even a Peggy Carter/Dottie Underwood Red Room origin story.
Like, who heard that and went – ‘no, I’m gonna go with Spiderman for the third time, and this guy who can talk to ants’?!
“And as the lone superheroine, she becomes, narratively, inevitably,
sexualized and available. Fans can write barrels of bytes of fanfic in
which Tony Stark and Captain America have torrid sex and more torrid sex
with each other, but in the canon, homosexuality is rarely considered a
real option. And that leaves Black Widow as the one object of desire
for — well, for everyone.
She’s been paired with many other heroes because she’s the one person
there to be paired with. In a male world a woman automatically becomes,
potentially, everyone’s property. And then, the fact that she’s
structurally positioned as property to be passed around is blamed on
her. She’s the weird, aberrant, object of desire.”
Have I fallen into some strange alternate dimension?
Holy shit Respect, Playboy.
Well, not so surprising, if you know a little bit about this magazine and its history.
“Black Widow” movie summary: When S.H.I.E.L.D Agent Clint Barton was ordered to terminate the infamous Black Widow, Natalia Romanova, he made a unexpected choice, and that choice had its consequences…
SOMEONE BEAT ME TO MAKING THIS BUT IT’S SO GOOD I DON’T EVEN CARE
yes, please, i will take ten
TAKE MY MONEY
STAY FOR THE CREDITS STAY FOR THE CREDITS STAY FOR THE CREDITS.
I keep throwing money at the laptop screen but that’s not working. Why?
that “Tili Tili Bom” shit always gives me goosebumps [credits = actual guffawing]
and when i first saw it i was like “aww Nat jumping into steve’s lap that’s so cute she’s like AHH STEVE SAVE ME” and then i was thinking ‘well she probably realized he’s way stronger than she is and could help shield her if they crashed’
but then i kept watching it and i noticed how she immediately pulls him forward
and first i thought it was the momentum of her jump but you can clearly see in the gif how she gets settled (quickly) THEN pulls him close to her
and then i realized
that is a bullet hole.
Nat somehow knew EXACTLY where Steve was gonna get shot at, jumped up into his seat, and saved him
Natasha Fucking Romanoff
!!!!!!!!!!!!
she didn’t just jump in the front to save steve, tws shot at her first
she also pushed sam away from the bullet bc she knew he’s next
all of this in the span of 3 seconds how fast do u think her brain works i mean DAMN
