10 Mistakes Marvel Need To Avoid With Black Widow
4. The Action
The Mistake: Marvel does enjoy there big set-pieces and audiences tend to eat them up as well. They have an great talent for delivering energetic and fun action sequences, perhaps most successfully done with the airport brawl in Captain America: Civil War.
However, the studio has also added to the problematic trend of mass destruction in modern superhero films. It's hard to enjoy these light popcorn films when you consider how many innocent bystanders are killed in these massive battles.
Aside from that, watching heroes face-off against hordes of faceless of enemies is getting tiresome.
The Solution: Despite the fact that she doesn't fly or shoot laser-beams, Black Widow as a character offers the opportunity for some great action scenes. Her style of fighting is so kinetic and thrilling to watch it that you don't need to see skyscraper getting demolished.
Stick to what makes sense for the character. You can still have action set-pieces, but keep them grounded like shootouts and car chases. And above all, give us some great hand-to-hand combat.
Instead of having the climax involve a beam of energy shooting up in the sky, have Black Widow and Crimson Dynamo throw down with a brutal fight scene.
