I haven't seen the Avengers, since, you know, it has been released in the states yet. Is this another instance of you reading the script online first?


Don't need to. All I have to do is see the preview with her futilely loading her Glock while that flying whatever-it-is heads in their direction.

Oh yes. She's going to be such a big help in that situation. I'm sure the writers came up with some angle to make her seem useful, but it doesn't really speak to the usefulness of her character if they have to scale down the difficulty of the scenario for the sake of making her look relevant.

Black Widow's use in IM2 was the same as Nick Fury's. It was prepping and building up the Avengers concept.


Fair enough. But how does that serve the Iron Man film?
