• Fandom: Man it's time for a black widow movie. She has been in more movies at this point than Captian America. She needs her own.
  • Marvel: How about Captian Marvel? And Black Panther? A female lead and black lead!( but you have to wait for years)
  • Fandom: That's great but a black widow movie would also be great
  • Marvel: How about a slice of Red Room backstory in Age of Ultron? Because nothing builds up a women's background like terror and torture!
  • Fandom: But why can't she have her own movie? Spy movies are successful genere, look at James Bond, the Bourne series? If you don't want to do her background, give her her own side story, like the other avengers have? Make a movie about her and Hawkeye saving the world or something?
  • Marvel: Well you see there is a very specific formula to these phases, we can just slap her movie in willy nilly.
  • Fandom: *makes tons of black widow fanart and meta, creates #opentheledger, continues to vocally pursue a Black Widow movie *
  • Marvel: *buys spiderman to reboot a THIRD TIME* HEY GUYS LOOK YOU WANTED A MOVIE ABOUT A SPIDER WE GOT YOU A MOVIE ABOUT A SPIDER.
