Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

In Thor when the guy grabbed the bow, I figured there was something more there, so I looked up the trivia on the movie and got to Hawkeye from there.

I know I'll never have a Marvel fan's knowledge of cannon, but I'd like to be able to get the movie to movie references and character movie-backstories, where available.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Doesn't he have a thing where he's unable to miss a shot?

No, that's Bullseye. Also Hawkeye and Black Widow have romantic history. Or did in comics canon.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

It's pretty clear they have some sort of history in the teaser where she puts Coulson on hold. (Did I vague that up enough?)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I don't know what they've retconned but originally Black Widow was a soviet agent and Hawkeye was a criminal (jewel thief type). I'm getting the sense that both of them were recruited then trained by Shield in this series.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

originally Black Widow was a soviet agent

Ooh. Maybe she knows Molotov Cocktease.

She's basically the model for Molotov Cocktease. Though BW does not withhold her affections. (She was also involved with Daredevil.)

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

And Bucky. Also, Hercules. (Though who hasn't been, really?)

Of course Clint was involved with Mockingbird, the Wasp, and sexed up a Wanda-shaped Doombot.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I read Marvel Comics back in the day and I have no memory of Hawkeye!

He rarely headlined his own title. He's mostly a character in The Avengers and periodically a guest on things like Daredevil.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Avengers is now open in Australia! And I'm in China. The hell?
