20 Saddest Moments In Marvel's Cinematic Universe (So Far)
9. Romanoffs Revelation
The evolution if it can be called that of Natasha Romanoffs character in Age Of Ultron has been the source of much consternation on the interwebs since the Avengers sequel landed in cinemas a couple of months ago. The disgruntled were up in arms over Black Widows treatment in Ultron, complaining that Marvel so frequently questioned regarding its perceived gender inequality had reduced their flagship female character to a love interest and, God forbid, damsel in distress. Whatever your take on the burgeoning romance between Romanoff and Banner, their romantic subplot supplied some of the movies more tender moments, as amply demonstrated when the team took a breather at Hawkeyes safe house. When Banner spurned Romanoffs advances, citing the impracticality of his siring children among other reasons, she revealed that the Red Room of her childhood included a graduation ceremony in which candidates were sterilised to make them that much more efficient as killers. It was an insight into Black Widows horrific upbringing that only increased demand for a solo outing at some point in the future.
