What an unrealistic scene, her boots should flown off from falling at that height!!! Also there should have been wayyyyy more blood than that.

Spoiler

From that height? Her body would have exploded on impact. Less "Aaaawww" and more "Eeeeewww".

Haha yeah, I was just joking...but if we're gonna be super realistic, yeah, she should have been a giant red splatter mark.

Whatever happened to her romance with Hulk?

 

[generalszabo]

Looks like the best likeness so far to me, glad they finally got it right!

Whatever happened to her romance with Hulk?

He got angry once while they were having um relations,the rest is history.

Two years off planet without a phone call

Hulk smash?

Two years off planet without a phone call

I know, but there’s a potential to pick it up if they wanted too. Off planet and didn’t call is quite a reasonable excuse man. It’s not like they got phone over there lol

Hulk smash?

This figure looks great... I have two Black Widows already, but couldn't resist pre-ordering.

I was annoyed with that whole stone sacrifice thing. It felt pointless, and overly drawn out. It's the same reaction I had in Infinity War when Gamora went, ( and Black Panther, etc. were 'snapped'). A character death/sacrifice should be very moving, and this would have been... Except you know the character is going to be in an announced, upcoming movie, so there is ZERO drama. I also felt this resulted in her getting cheated out appearing in the final battle, 'girl power' moment. She was THE female character in Avengers, she should have got to participate in that moment.

I ordered this last night. I already have the Civil War and not sure this is better but I liked her in the movie. I also want to have this updated version go with Hawkeye and it should be interesting having a rooted and a sculpted Widow.

Well the BW movie is supposed to be set before the first Avengers, so that's not really an issue. But I can see how that might make it a bit harder to enjoy the prequel movie now, knowing the entire time what ultimately becomes of her.

And I agree, the sacrifice did feel a bit forced and unnecessary and is not at all how I would have liked to see her character go out.

I would have loved for her character to eventually retire from field ops and run S.H.I.E.L.D or something. But I'm guessing SJ was just done with the role.

I thought the scene with Hawkeye was terrific and couldn't be happier that it spared Widow from participating in that ridiculous scene toward the end of the movie.

So is HT going to make the end of her braid that much lighter blonde I wonder? To be honest I'm not sure if I'd really want them to, as it's the one part of her Endgame look I didn't really care for. And I think I might be fine with just the solid red.

Although I guess the Figuarts figure managed to make it look pretty decent.

After seeing the film, I was also wondering about this. It's meant to be a demonstration of her mental state, in part, that she stopped dyeing her hair and just let it grow in naturally. Seems like screen accuracy would warrant this change.

Spoiler

If anything it was ironic. From what I understand it was Scarjo that was campaigning for an all girl team up movie. They put them together in a scene and she isn't in it

 

[rocbolt]

... spared Widow from participating in that ridiculous scene toward the end of the movie.

Sure its fan service but so was everything else in the third act. It was a great little shot, probably never going to get a chance to see that lineup on the screen in the same scene ever again, so why not. Picking up and continuing on from what Widow started

Forced rubbish. It was as if they paused the rest of the film, scrolled "let's get this out of the way" in large text across the screen, did the obligatory scene, and then continued the actual film.

 

[davejames]

Eh, it may have been forced, but it was still cool seeing all the women together like that. And it just seems like a strange thing to have a beef with.
