slikmar Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 They showed a preview for a movie that is in the writing stage? I mean, there are movies I feel like they go straight to the filming the action/splosions before doing the writing, but I would hope a BW movie didn't do that.

Greywind Posted January 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 Scooped! I believe all movies should have their own thread instead of being dumped into the Phase Three thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattern Ghost Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 I believe all movies should have their own thread instead of being dumped into the Phase Three thread. Fair enough, though this movie isn't even close to existing, so I think the Phase Three thread is good enough at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a chickflick parody of Black Widow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wcw43921 Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 A couple of scenes I would like to see in the Black Widow movie-- We begin with an ending--specifically the ending of The Avengers at the shawarma scene-- An adorable little red-haired girl comes up to Natasha-- "You're one of the heroes, aren't you?" Natasha smiles wearily. "I don't know as I'd say I was a hero--" "Can I have your autograph?" Natasha sighs. "Honey, I really don't think that's a--" Then she trails off when she catches sight of Tony Stark across the table nodding his head and mouthing the words "Yes! Sign It! Come On!" She looks back at the little girl and sees the beginnings of disappointment in her eyes. "Okay, sure," says Natasha, and takes the piece of paper the girl offers her. "What's your name?" "Tasha." Natasha looks at her incredulously for a moment, then thinks for a moment and writes on the paper. She hands it back to Tasha, and she reads what's written out loud. "To Tasha--Keep Fighting The Good Fight--Best Always--The BLACK WIDOW!" Tasha's eyes light up like Times Square. "That is so cool! I'm gonna tell all my friends I got an autograph from the Black Widow!" She launches herself at Natasha and gives her a big hug. "Thank You, Black Widow!" As she runs off, Natasha looks after her until Stark speaks again. "You see? It feels good to get recognized for a good job." "Especially when you've earned it," says Steve Rogers, who offers Tony his hand. "I owe you an apology. I was wrong about you." "You don't owe me anything," replies Tony. "But you could pick up the tab." "Sorry," smiles Steve, "I left my wallet in my other suit." "You have another suit?" jokes Tony, and they laugh at each other while Natasha looks off thoughtfully, trying to deal with what just happened. Scant hours before she was Natasha Romanoff, agent of SHIELD and spy without a country. Now--she's the Black Widow, defender of New York and one of Earth's Mightiest Heroes. I'd also like a scene with Melinda May. Something in a dive bar, I think-- "If it isn't the Black Widow." "If it isn't the Cavalry." "You know I don't like that name." "Don't know why. As far as code names go, it's pretty solid. Besides--isn't Chun Li taken?" "Oh, you're funny." "Thanks. I'm thinking of a career in stand-up comedy." The bartender--who bears a remarkable resemblance to Stan Lee--steps up. "Ladies--whattya drinkin'?" "Whiskey," they say in unison. "Straight up." "What, no vodka?" says May. "What am I, a cliche? (Switches to Russian accent) You vant I should be chasing after Moose and Squirrel, dahlink?" May laughs. "Now that's funny." "I got a million of 'em." Or something like that.

Doc Shadow Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 The only problem is that no one under 40 would recognize Moose and Squirrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher R Taylor Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 I could see this being done as a really tight spy thriller. In my opinion the Captain America movies have all been better suited for Black Widow. Having Cap play James Bond doesn't really fit the character at all, but it does fit her. I'd also like to see her use her gadgets more. More Batmanny than a martial artist with a pistol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Agreed. I'd especially like to see her not need guns at all. I'd still like to see some other supers involved, though; one of her claims to fame is that she's a normal who can still hang with supersoldiers, radioactive mutants, armored billionaires, and Norse gods.

slikmar Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 what are you talking about. The 2000 movie with Jason Alexander and Rene Russo as Boris and Natasha was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Shadow Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Question for all of you. What does this tell us? What does Marvel commissioning a script for a solo Black Widow film tell us? And this should be jumping right out at you all. I'll check in the morning and see if anyone saw what I did. Night all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoloOfEarth Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Question for all of you. What does this tell us? What does Marvel commissioning a script for a solo Black Widow film tell us? That over the past five years they haven't made even minimal effort toward a Black Widow movie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazza Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Marvel commisioning a screenplay or treatment means absolutely nothing. Nicole Pearlman wrote a screenplay for Guardians. Gunn then rewrote a new screenplay (so I've read) which was filmed. Nicole Pearlman & a Pixar alum was writing the Captain Marvel screenplay...and now they aren't. Marvel has (or had) a program where incoming writers would write screenplays. Basically Marvel collects them...screenplays. Marvel hiring a writer to write a screenplay, means that they are interested in exploring the potential of a Black Widow film. If anything, this is a first draft. No doubt it will be rewritten by someone else or a new one written from scratch. The rumours also suggest that Scarlett being involved with the development of the script, which suggests that Marvel is fairly serious about pursuing this. However, Feige has stated Marvel's intention to make a Widow movie at some stage, which could also be a series. In the end, it is still unconfirmed rumours.

Starlord Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 If true, it means she survives Infinity War. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Shadow Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 If true, it means she survives Infinity War. And we have a winner! That's exactly what it means. At a time when everybody is speculating on who lives and who dies in Infinity War and its sequel, this tells us that Tasha survives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlord Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Cool, this is the first time I've ever won anything! The Chris Hemsworth talk about making another Thor might also indicate he survives as well, but that could just be a swerve I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chris Hemsworth talk about making another Thor might also indicate he survives as well, but that could just be a swerve I guess. In what I read Chris is unsure exactly what the shake-up is, how the storylines are put together, how it is edited etc. Hemsworth & Takiti's talk of Thor 4 is mere spit-balling for now. If it gets serious it will be after Avengers 4 is finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
