Didn't stop Henry Cavills Superman getting a movie, and it might not stop Ben Afflecks Batman getting one. That is an issue with the actor only. Black Widow is also boring as a character. People seem to view the character as a highpoint of the films to maybe, maybe not |

Presumably because they themselves are concerned she may be too boring to carry a movie. |

So you're saying it would be risk to give her a film because she doesn't have powers. Certainly doesn't sound boring. |

I mean the boring thing is an opinion, I don't find her any more boring than Cap, but what's wrong with her not having powers? |

She is supposed to be fairly normal in ability--gymnastics etc. Nick Fury being attacked in a car works, but that is one scene, not a whole movie. If it was a whole movie of espionage why bother calling it a super hero movie. Unless she is carrying lasers or wearing super armor....but then, that would alter the character from the comic norm. I think Hawkeye is boring too though. |

It wouldn't be a superhero movie if it's about Black Widow.

I don't see why it couldn't be like James Bond but only with her fighting some supervillain instead of a Bond villain. |

I don't know IF I'll watch it (certainly NOT at the theatre), BUT I'm GLAD that it's going to be "Rated-R".
