Current Events > Watching Black Widow and its weird that they (spoilers)

(+) Yeah! (+)

Totally murdered like 600 Russian dudes and didnt give a fuck, they didn't even mention it

Yeah i know some were Criminals but still, murder is fucked

And a bunch were innocent guards or political prisoners

How many did Loki kill in Avengers 1? like 67?

I mean, they're not dead YET, right? Could still be saved

Suicide Squad: "Hold my beer"

Suicide Squad are a bunch of villains

BW is meant to be hero

theres that whole bit about her trying to show mercy to the Assassin who tried to eat her ass

then 30 minutes later, not even empathy

The normal human spy girl?

I think it was implied they all got inside and probably survived.

Yeah they really moved on from that whole thing pretty quick. Only real acknowledgement is Yelena joking about it being a cool way to die. I know it's not a one-to-one comparison but put that next to like Falcon and the Winter Soldier's John Walker killing that one terrorist guy who had moments earlier killed Walker's best friend and partner and how the show portrayed that. It's not the same thing and they're different heroes with different values and everything I know, but Black Widow's still stood out as a little egregious.

Yeah

blond chick flat out fired a rocket at a guys face and it was played as a joke

What's fucked up is how they let her off the hook for disfiguring a young girl whom she thought she had murdered.

"Oh, that child I murdered isn't dead? Water under the bridge, am I right?"

With a plot involving mind control, they could have easily said that she was still under the effects of the drug. But, no, they made a point to make it a conscious decision on her part and then they let her off -- for condemning her victim to a fate worse than death.

With all the super hero stuff aside.

What about all the friends, girls, civilians and soldiers Bond kills or gets killed in his movies?

Like the hangar of soldiers he kills in Octopussy who had no real idea of whats going on.

Or in Casino Royale where his actions help kill some construction workers and probably a few guys at the Embassy he blew up.

Or the random woman who he causes to get shot in the Quantum chase.

Or the building and street he blows up in Skyfall.

Fuck it if there is other people in there.

Bond is always tearing shit up and killing without care.

He's no Batman.

To be fair, he literally has a movie called license to kill.

---

Yeah Bond isn't a hero

He's literally a tool of the UK government to promote their interests

He'd kill all of Canada if he was ordered too

And then fuck the one remaining Canadian woman on their corpses

",Da one natural resource da world has too much off.... GURLS!!!!"

.... Stellar script writing there

I kinda wanna see the film about 15 Russian baddass chicks and fat superguy fucking about on a plane

Sounds better than this

I didnt like Black Widow all that much. Easily one of the weaker and more embarrassing recent marvel movies.

Black Widow was alright but yeah, it ranks low in my MCU movie rankings. Still enjoyable, but a lot of questionable storytelling decisions made here.

I liked it fine

better than Loki

Same thing with Hawkeye.

I get that he was sad after his family got snapped but he literally went around murdering people with his justification being "You lived when they died".

People actually tried to justify that by saying everyone grieves differently.

That didn't bother me , it was to sell how fucked the snap was

And Hawkeye's murdering was portrayed as a bad thing, he was broken

He only went after criminal gangs that the law wasn't touching anyways, so not just regular people. Still bad for him, but not as bad as you are implying.
