Black Widow (Possible Spoilers)
Jump to: Newest in thread
Anyone seen the new MCU movie Black Widow?
If so what did you think of the movie?
I enjoyed it, I think Florence Pugh was great in it. I hope to see more of Yelena (which I hear we will do in the Hawkeye series, don't know if anyone here watches the Disney+ shows.) |

We watched it last night on Disney+.
Decided it was better to pay £20 and see it as often as we wanted, than £80 to see it once at the cinema. We’d have been going as a family, hence the cost.
It does make me wonder what the future of cinemas will be, given the Disney+ business model.

Saw it on Wednesday, gotta love those Meerkats.
Florence Pugh stole the show, and I hear is up for an Oscar nomination for her role. Fair play she did most of the 'acting'.
Standard Marvel affair in terms of the plot and sequences, a good watch but I found it refreshing that it poked fun at it's characters. |

"What is their model?"
Releasing the movie on their streaming platform before or at the same time as the cinematic release. Previously we had to wait between 3 months & 3 years to see it.
It made sense for us to pay £20 to watch at home instead of going to the cinema and paying 80-100. In this particular case, I don’t think it made much difference where it was watched. The same would not be true for Infinity Wars & Endgame where the massive battle scenes need a massive screen to do them justice.
I’ve loved going to the cinema since I was a child because of the ‘treat’ factor but I’m worrying/concerned that this form of streaming is going to hurt the cinemas.

2 thoughts, did they do this before covid? I'm not a cinema fan but I can imagine having the option to pay 20 especially if you have a family/ low income is a better option. Their still making money.
The other I wonder if cinemas will become places of expereinces, maybe disney buying up the failing cinemas and then only releasing in them.
I also feel that there model is predomently merch, you have the disney side and then the marvel side,disney side could work on child pester power and marvel the adults, parents buying for thier kids as well as them selves.
I've never been a cinema person and what with covid i suspect there are many that just wouldnt want to be in a perceived Petre dish |

We loved it.
I did feel that it lacked depth in places, that certain themes could have been explored more but as standard Marvel fare it was exactly as expected and definitely delivered on the action.
I really enjoyed David Harbour and the dynamic between the ‘family’, how they wove the origin story into the narrative and the central relationship between the two leads was beautifully played.
I think that it’s great that Marvel are (finally) catering to other groups, Black Panther, Captain Marvel and this have all been celebrated.
Looking forward to Shan Chi now! |

It will be interesting to see, especially after the recent legal action that Scarlett Johansson has taken, and Emma Stone is considering. |

I think Agree if Ultron is a different film. |

Well, that's thanks to Disney pushing Perlmutter out that they can now reach other audiences. |
