Infinity War The Black Widow Thread

[Voltron]

It's really not that big a deal...she's in hiding so truthfully any hair color change would do. I certainly don't think it's something to rant & rave over and to take jabs at Johansson over it. She's done just fine as Black Widow & I highly doubt that's going to change simply because the character is blonde now.

But the role could've been much more with another actress like Emily Blunt who excelled in Edge of Tomorrow. Scarjo is a poor action actress. And I don't like her BW portrayal, it's pedestrian.

Oh, boy.
So you are definitely one of those crazy Sharon's fans which hate on Nat for her blonde hair. And I thought only thirteen-year-old girls on twitter practice that.

Emily didn't look much more convincing than Scar in her action scenes. When she took on Bucky it looked more like she was doing ballet moves than actual punches.

I've disliked Scarjo as BW since IM2 and that's before Sharon on MCU. Those EVC action movies are because of the directors - they didn't care to give her a good fight choreography.

How do heroes run, exactly?

Not flat footed like she's trying hard to look like an action star!

 

[Voltron]

Looks like a nod to Yelena Belova to me.

Another character from the comics they took something off from and gave to MCU NR!

So, you have been wishing death upon BW since IM2?

Those EVC action movies are because of the directors - they didn't care to give her a good fight choreography.

It almost sounds like when it comes to EVC, the Russos suddenly stop trying to make the best movie they can and begin to let things slide.
I've seen some snippets from her action scenes in Revenge. Nothing extraordinary convincing. At least Scarlett's punches look confident enough.

I'll admit bias as I don't care whatsoever for Emily van Camp and/or Sharon Carter in the MCU. But if I were to comment on her, I'd do it in her thread.

I'm not a massive fan of Johannson but I think she's been good and fun to watch as Black Widow and looks cool with blonde hair.

Apparently, Sharon's stans like to pit Natasha against Sharon and claim Sharon was treated dirty in the MCU because of Black Widow/Scarlett, all while conveniently ignoring the fact that Scarlett's high status didn't prevent Olsen from getting decent roles in both movies as well.
And now even Natasha's blonde hair is a personal insult to SC.

Guys, it's a troll who goes into multiple threads wishing death on Black Widow and spouting conspiracy theories about how Black Widow is to blame for Sharon Carter not getting a big role in these movies.

It's nothing more than bitterness.

 

[Capsfan]

^Thanks for the heads up))

Found this. Ruffalo compared them with Romeo and Juliet. Judging by his words, they aren't gonna cancel BruceNat after all.

After AOU and Ragnarok, obviously they'd have to address the reunion. Doesn't mean that they'll continue down the path of the two becoming lovers.

The next two Avengers films will probably be about whether the two can find happiness in their lives, when the universe needs them to embrace what they hate most.

But you're still a fan.. And I'm in this thread commenting on scarjo's bw.

Wishing Emily Blunt was Black Widow. And again you're putting words in my mouth, I was talking about EVC's fight choreography and not the movie . Also you're comparing a TV fight budget with a movie fight budget?!

Oh please. I've been talking about scarjo's Black Widow and wishing Emily Blunt played the role instead. And it's not a conspiracy theory when there's plenty of evidence prior to TWS from the writers own mouths. Yes, of course it's bitterness since I'm bummed Emily Blunt isn't BW .

There were plenty of trolls and haters on the Sharon TWS and CW threads that you frequented and yet you never called them trolls. Talk about double standards.

 

[MbJ]

Oh please. I've been talking about scarjo's Black Widow and wishing Emily Blunt played the role instead.

And going into threads saying you hope she dies.

That's because none of them are nearly as obsessive about it.

 

[Voltron]

And going into threads saying you hope she dies.

You mean just the ONE thread titled Who will die in Infinity war Part 1 and 2?

That's because none of them are nearly as obsessive about it.

Oh you mean like Rote? Again double standards. I am bitter that Emily Blunt isn't BW, because I know she'd make a better portrayal with better physicality. BTW seeing Tessa Thompson's own fight moves in Ragnarok was impressive and looks convincing, and if only scarjo's bw fight moves that naturally too.

 

[MbJ]

Oh you mean like Rote?

I don't remember who that is, but they aren't in here acting like this right now.

 

[Enriquespy]

I'm glad we got Scarlet.

 

[Bren]

Feeling bitter about a movie character's casting for 7+ years just sounds like too much work hahaha

 

[StarLord]

You know it's make believe right?

The movies provide a team of stunt performers and coordinators to help her, but Scarlett does perform a lot of the psychical scenes herself.

[Voltron]

You call those physical scenes? And the woman who jumps over the cement barrier is the stunt woman.

I'm talking about her doing some of the actual physical and combat fight moves like what Chris Evans, Seb Stan, Tessa Thompson, Gal Gadot, Zoe Saldana, Elodie Yung etc have performed themselves.

 

[StarLord]

For an ACTOR. Yeah, they are psychical.

 

[Voltron]

Again, " I'm talking about her doing some of the actual physical and combat fight moves like what Chris Evans, Seb Stan, Tessa Thompson, Gal Gadot, Zoe Saldana, Elodie Yung etc have performed themselves." And she runs funny.

 

[Loki882]

I don't care. Stunt doubles exist for a reason, and they've been around for a long time in Hollywood (and some big name actors use them). Whining about them at this point just feels like complaining for the sake of complaining imo.

This is what "running funny" looks like. Scarjo is great as Black Widow.

I liked Widow's action in that early scene in CW.

 

[ArmsHeldOut]

I liked Widow's action in that early scene in CW.

Same. It's one of my many favorite fight sequences in the film.

 

[Voltron]

This is what "running funny" looks like. Scarjo is great as Black Widow.

But could've been much better with Emily Blunt in the role. Scarjo running funny in this scene is funny too https://youtu.be/4MnYudkTHBo?t=57s

You missed the point, of course stunt doubles are needed, but scarjo's stunt doubles aren't seamless unlike say Chris Evans' and Seb Stans' and Daisy Ridley in TFA, btw Daisy runs like a real action star here.

Not really, it's just I know that Emily Blunt could've done much better as BW. But yeah, I'll get over it and move on.

I don't remember who that is, but they aren't in here acting like this right now.

Well it's a discussion about BW and I'm discussing BW .

 

[Voltron]

I liked Widow's action in that early scene in CW.

Yeah the fight choreography and stunt work is good, kudos to stunt woman Miss Moneymaker.

 

[MbJ]

I think you overestimate how much anyone who isn't named Voltron cares about actors running.
