Eh, I'd rather have a Black Widow movie. I like MCU Nat bunches and loads, and she'll have been in four movies without a solo go after A2, which just seems wrong for the main female character in the MCU.
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Hank Pym isn't the main character though.
And he's not even building Ultron so I'm not entirely sure why they're intent on having an Ant-Man movie. They have so many other options!
If they introduce Cassie Lang, though, that would be cool.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Eh, I'd rather have a Black Widow movie.
But Scarlett Johanssen sucks at the role, and the production seems to have no interest in making her better. If her lame physicality and sloppy stunting were to lead a movie...no, I think Marvel should start again with someone competent, and produce it like they're impressed with her the same way they're impressed with their male heroes.
Gamora and Amy Pond didn't suck, so it's possible. But Black Widow has been bad consistently, so I have little hope for more spotlight fixing that.

I love her in the role, though.
I thought Gamora was underwritten but adequately played, though not ZS's strongest work. Thought Gillan was great as Nebula.

Huh, whereas I thought Gillan was miscast in the role, she really didn't work for me. Concur that both women's parts were under written, though.

I would love to see a movie of Hawkeye and Black Widow meeting--or where it's a big part. It'd have to be a flashback, though, I don't think Marvel's going to do prequels.

I'm with you. Gillan didn't get much to work with, but she did well with what she had.

Hey. New board.
I like Scar Jo as Black Widow an awful lot. I think Black Widow is my favorite character in the MC right now and plenty of that comes from her. Physicality notwithstanding. I don't really expect remotely accurate physicality from action/comic movies and though I think it is obvious they mostly cast her for the hotness originally, that has nothing to do with my enjoyment of her. Girl can rock an eye roll.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I wasn't crazy about her in IM2, but that might have been because I wasn't crazy about the movie overall. But I really liked her in Avengers and CA:WS.
