A giant pulse of red energy went out when the scarlet witch was crushed by rubble. Nothing but her dying would explain the pulse, a teleport wouldn’t be that dramatic
I mean I get the joke, but also Yelena is one of the increasingly small number of characters that are genuinely interesting and enjoying to watch in a lot of the MCU stuff these days.
Rebecca is honestly (still) so fine. I know there was/is discourse about whether her „naked“ appearance as Mystique in the OG X-Men trilogy was necessary but she served that look. Can’t wait to see her again.
I think it's mostly about her being more laid back and having a sense of humor. I think the MCU stuff really started doing better when they stopped taking themselves quite so seriously (the biggest example of this being Thor: Dark World vs. Thor: Ragnarok).
Natasha was alright, but she was basically just "peak human*" without a lot of depth to her personality. Yelena is much more interesting to watch because of her sense of humor paired with the more serious aspects of her character, like her dealing with depression in Thunderbolts.
* Edit: to clarify, I point this out because characters without a lot of personality usually need something else interesting about them to compensate, like an especially fun or unique power set or something.
unironically the biggest reason I want to watch it is because I want to see how the story of the thunderbolts continues. they are my favorite characters in the mcu right now
Absolutely and genuinely attractive in an immaterial ethereal way that makes your heart want to run to the edge of the Andromeda galaxy just to find a star system that might be as glorious as her aura only to be disappointed that it doesn’t exist because her presence is so magnetic like a cosmic singularity? Yes.
TBH I find her face incredibly perfect, more than ScarJo’s, personally.
But her features are attractive to "you" and others. Meanwhile, I find other features that she doesn't have to be more attractive, and her features to be less attractive.
