"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Avengers cast talks about female-lead action movies.
EW: So you think the problem is just too much focus on the sexuality of female superheroes?
Johansson: Yeah, I think they’re always fighting in a bra, so while it might be exciting for a still photo, it’s ridiculous. One of the most exciting thing about [The Avengers,] is that in my opening scene the first thing you see is my character getting punched in the face. Everybody’s like, ‘Damn, it’s nice to see a girl get the sh-t kicked out of her–
Jackson: [Interupting] They also want to know where you get that no-bruise make-up.
Whedon: Wait, you need to let her finish this thought, or this is going to transcribe really badly.
Johansson: [Throws arms up] And then Sam Jackson talks more about the g-string!
Jackson: No! F–k no! I’m in one of the best woman-action-movies ever f–king made — The Long Kiss Goodnight.
Downey: Damn right.
Jackson: Geena Davis f–king kicks ass in that. She is totally dope in that one.
Johansson: There are good ones. And Geena Davis is the perfect woman to be that.
Jackson: They just had no idea how to market that f–king movie — at that time. [The 1996 movie -- written by Iron Man 3 filmmaker Shane Black -- underperformed at the box office, but has since become a cult favorite.]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My coworker just told me some comic book shit about a possible female villain -- something about Thanos and Lady Death? So that could be interesting, I guess.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Jesse, that was definitely Thanos in the first after-credits scene. And he "courts death" literally in the comics.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's exactly what my coworker said, and now is literally all I know about that. But, you know, I'm all for female bad guys. In general.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Oh what a morning. Traffic conspired to make me miss my original flight and now I get to fly to Detroit and Salt Lake City to get to Tucson. Thank god for in-flight Internet.
And ita !, it's nice to see you around.

"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
Thing is, Death isn't really a villain in Marvel Comics. Its role is more the Jodie Foster to Thanos' John Hinckley Jr.
