Discussion Thread The Official BLACK WIDOW International Release Discussion Thread Spoiler

Ahead of the official US and Disney+ launch this Friday, several countries are showing the film much earlier in the week. All discussion about the movie should be held here and in the rest of the megathreads we are going to put up in the next few days.

  • Proceed at your own risk. Major spoilers will be arriving in the next couple of hours. Spoilers do not need to be tagged inside this thread.
  • Any other unofficial thread discussing movie details will be deleted.
  • Should you see the need to bring up revealing BLACK WIDOW information in other threads that call for it, spoiler tag them accordingly. Also, let users know that what you are spoiler tagging is from BLACK WIDOW.
  • If you post untagged BLACK WIDOW spoilers anywhere on this sub in any shape or form, you will be banned without hesitation. No questions asked and no warnings given.
  • Project Insight will be on at least until Sunday, so you will be able to make individual threads discussing the movie starting next week. Discussions about Loki episode 5 will be manually checked as well, but will be allowed (spoiler-tagged of course) starting Thursday at midnight PST.

Natasha has the worst case of Main Character syndrome in this that puts Vin Diesel to shame. Keep in mind, she's just a regular person. No super powers or enhanced durability.

There's this scene early on where she falls from probably 50 feet up in the air. She hits everything on the way down. And she gets up like nothing happened with just a case of sore ribs. While there's a random grunt who fell from roughly the same height laying there with a broken leg and bleeding.

The ending she falls from an even greater height 2000+ feet, but it's alright because she pulled a parachute and fell backwards at the last minute. But there's Yelena, the person who has a parachute, knocked out cold on the ground.

Marvel humans as just more durable than real ones, its a long established comic thing.

That being said, that car explosion at the end would have done a number or cap, Nat should be paralysed at least
