Thanks for watching guys! Let's get this video to 1,000 LIKES as that will REALLY HELP this video get recommended by KZfaq!

Taskmaster was wasted. They didn’t even give him his most iconic ability, which was accurately predicting people’s moves. But no they just made him a terminator with a female twist.

Winter Soldier wins, better villain, better story, better overall.

The Suicide Squad just proves that the MCU has no excuse to shoot all of their movies in CGI. The Suicide Squad had quite a bit of CGI but it was primarily shot on location and looked amazing because of it.

Black Widow doesn’t even hold a candle to The Winter Soldier, but this should be an interesting comparison

Black Widow arguably should have been released prior to Endgame, since it didn't really feel like a send off for Natasha. However, Florence was amazing as Yelena, and I can't wait to see her next project in the MCU!

Black Widow should've got her solo movie first instead we ended up with Captain Marvel 😞

easily the most underrated chanel ever

Winter Soldier winning. Better off doing Black Widow vs Captain Marvel.

Even though the First Avenger is my friend,indeed Captain America movie, I have to agree with you that Winter Soldier is 100 times better than Black Widow because for the love of God what has Disney and the rest have done,Black Widow was a comic disaster than it reminded me about Captain Marvel,AND THOSE 2 MOVIES ARE EQUALLY BAD,the characters were horribly written,the jokes were bad,the story was awful,the risks and consequence don't exist,and the biggest sin of all was what the movie did to Taskmaster,as a comic book and well written story fan I feel disgusted by this abomination of a chance,overall Winter Soldier deserves a 9 out of 10 and Black Widow deserves a 2 out of 10,the movie could have been better,but it suffers from the occasion of it's just too little too late,great video as always Eric Carter.

We never got a proper Black Widow standalone film. What we got was an excuse to justify Capt. Marvel being seen as an “acceptable” film at the expense of Natasha Romanov’s character.

One of my biggest problems with Endgame was how little anyone seemed to care about her. They mourn her for about three minutes sincerely, before ruining the moment with another Thorbowski joke. A few minutes later, they’re all cracking jokes again. Sure, she got a little lip service, but implicating Hawkeye in her death is going too far. And she wasn’t done justice in the 2 1/2 hour movie named after her. So I feel the same. Didn’t hate the movie, but it’s Winter Soldier/Mission Impossible lite.

That black panther example made me laugh too much

What I think the first problem of Black Widow is the same problem that ruined Han Solo spinoff

Aside from the obvious money reason, I don't get why a Black Widow film happened AFTER her in series death. Not only have people been wanting this film for a decade before the film was announced, it takes alot away from the character's death in the series even if this movie does take place way before Endgame

I hope it was just me but when he show clips of every time the MCU has used that interruption joke I laughed like crazy 😂😂😂🖐

I’m gonna go on record and say that the “pose” joke in Black Widow actually worked, but most of them were hit-and-miss, and the sterilization joke was especially in bad taste. But Black Widow takes way too long getting started (with a great opening scene), and yes it needed to come out after Civil War. Black Widow should’ve been named “Yelena”, because she feels like a side character who does nothing for the first forty minutes. I also would’ve preferred that we see a Hawkeye/Black Widow mission. The pheromone thing is so stupid, and the main forgettable villain does feel like a misogynist. Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t hate Black Widow, but it wasn’t a worthy tribute to the character, and deserved a better story.

Not even a contest Winter Soldier.

Hi, Eric it's good to see your versus videos back!

Star Trek Abrams Trilogy. VS Star Wars Disney Sequel Trilogy. Think you can cover multiple movies teamed up against the other team? Or is cinematic tag team too much work (From my perspective Trek is the somewhat superior series.)

Comparing black widow to a Russo brother movie is basically like comparing Josstice league to infinity war. It’s an embarrassing defeat

Can you imagine if Scott Adkins played Taskmaster in Black Widow? His charismatic yet menacing presence would emphasize Taskmaster's dominance and personality, especially enhancing the intense combat scenes with Black Widow. Now, picture the Russo Brothers directing the film after Civil war, resulting in a darker tone, more deeper character development, and a focus on the Red Room with Pre-Taskmaster (Tony Masters) as their brutal handler/trainer for the Red Room, strengthening the relationships between Black Widow, Yelena, Red Guardian, Melina and Hawkeye in this movie. Under the brothers direction, Red Guardian would become a nostalgic Soviet-era fatherly hero, offering humor and a quest for redemption especially after being in confinement for years, setting him apart from Captain America who also felt lost after time has past (Ice and Prison comparison). I mean, the film could open with a flashback to the Budapest mission, showing Black Widow and Hawkeye attempting to eliminate Taskmaster, who was believed to be a deadly threat for SHIELD. This mission would establish Taskmaster's reputation as a formidable adversary and reveal the history between these characters. After the Budapest mission, Taskmaster was believed to be dead, and both Natasha and Clint carried the weight of their past decisions. This belief would haunt them, as they were never sure if they had truly eliminated the threat. This uncertainty would have left them emotionally scarred. This would make Taskmaster reappearance send shockwaves through Natasha and Clint's lives. Taskmaster's quest for revenge, driven by the belief that Black Widow betrayed him, would become the central conflict of the film. His mission to hunt them down would add an element of personal stakes and danger. Black Widow and Hawkeye would have to work together with Natasha's "family" to combat Taskmaster. (This would be interesting because Clint probably never met Natasha's family before Natasha joined with Shield, and would be interesting to explore. Taskmaster's supersoldier serum would be unique, more centered around mimicry and photographic reflexes, making him a terrifying and psychologically ruthless antagonist against Black Widow who would be outmatched in a fight against a supersoldier. Taskmaster wouldn’t be a mute either but an arrogant, terrifying, sadistic supersoldier with a need to prove his superiority to Black Widow. Imagine Taskmaster was more scarier in a Terminator-like role, relentlessly hunting our heroes. The film would then be filled with high-stakes chases, psychological warfare, and testing team dynamics between Black Widow, Hawkeye and her family especially if given something to do to ward off Taskmaster for a time. Finally, consider how Black Widow would win through strategy and emotional resonance, exploiting Taskmaster's limitations for a satisfying and intense final confrontation. I mean, imagine if the action scenes were any similar to John Wick and Captain America: Winter Soldier? All of these changes would collectively reshape 'Black Widow' into a darker, character-driven, and action-packed film, with unique character dynamics, an intimidating but memorable antagonist, and emotionally resonant victories for the heroes.

Great to see you put Winter Soldier in one of your versus videos. And yeah, this match isn’t very close.

The more I thought about what they did to taskmaster, the more pissed I become.

Fantastic video as per usual, Eric! Would love to see a Venom VS Venom: Let There Be Carnage video from you.

I felt more for the pig that couldn't breath than any of the other characters in Black Widow

My gosh Eric I can't say how much I love your work keep it up!

About taskmasters gender, they actually used male stunt doubles which makes the gender just a total mind f*ck Yes I do realize he went over that, that happened about 30 seconds after I wrote this

Great Video Once Again, Keep Up The Great Content My Dude! 👑

Ok, but the interruption joke from Guardians of the Galaxy was actually pretty funny.

They were both good movies , but Winter Soldier was better. The Black Widow just was too overwhelming,with what she was facing. Facing all those villains on her own not realistic. Plus I wanted to see a original story, not a follow up to Civil War. Instead it would have been much more interesting to see how she went from a assassin to a agent of Shield.

Hello Eric, amazing video as always. Would love to hear you talk about loki and what if too. Could you please do that ?

I HAVE BEEN WAITING EVER SINCE I SAW THE POLL

You and your opinion is and will be the best forever you really say things that we cant say you should get 1 million subscribers because are and will be the best

great job man. last week you had 56.1k sub now you have 58.7k keep up the great work

It’s gonna be The Winter Soldier, isn’t it?

17:04 “…even the most built woman.” Have you seen Gina Carano?

Great analysis and review mate, I completely agree with you! And then some people thought Capitan Marvel was bad

Great review! And I already knew that The Winter Soldier would win, But these movies(mostly winter soldier) are what the MCU movies should be not just a another childish movie it needs dark themes dark moments, Marvel really needs freedom it's honestly Disney ruining the MCU I mean sure Deadpool and Blade are gonna be Rated R but their not gonna have extreme Adult themes I feel like Disney is really gonna try to make it so parents can let their 13 year old watch it. And also instead we got Captain Femenist Movie Marvel before Black widow

Wow. Finally. This is amazing because you're opinions are the exact same as mine and you gave of strong points. Keep up the good work! 👍

25:52 Wanna add 1 thing Eric: Don't forget that Winter Soldier is also *Falcon* movie (his arc/development in Winter Soldier was *far superior* than his newer, 6 long episodes of his miniseries...)

About the toppling cars, I remember how well Christopher Nolan did it in Inceptoon

Hello Eric, nice video btw. Are you planning on doing a Venom VS video when the sequel is released in a couple weeks I believe?

Great video, Eric. Although I did quite enjoyed Black Widow. Have you ever thought of reviewing What If...? after all of it's episodes are released? Anyway keep up the great work with your channel.

I was looking forward to this.

I want to say, I was worried this was going to be a one sided review, seeing as how you mentioned Winter Soldier is your favorite MCU movie. You did give a fair assessment on both films. While I did enjoy BW, particularly because of David Harbour and Florence pew-pew, Natasha felt more or less a guest in her supposed origin film that as you stated felt like set ups for other characters. The Winter Soldier is a nearly flawless film, even if it was removed from the MCU timeline, it could be watched and enjoyed on its own. Black Widow, I agree should have came out after Civil War, coming out in 2020/2021 felt too little, too late and I really have no interest in owning it because Natasha already had so many great character arcs in previous films that her presence in this one feels underwhelming and wasted.

The mcu is just going downhill, if they dont come with a good movie then im done with marvel, awesome video dude, keep up the good work

Black widow's story isn't an espionage flick, it is a redemption flick sprinkled with a family sitcom. Natasha doesn't have an arc, she has a goal because that goal is fueled by her first arc of defecting to shield and severing ties with people she treated as family. Dreykov's daughter was mentioned by Loki in the first Avengers movie as one of the bits of red in her ledger she wants to wipe out. Dreykov chooses girls because girls are the easiest to kidnap and traffic. finally, a clothespin falls off the nose while severing the nerve is more potent in allowing Natasha to fight, she also tried to bait Dreykov into hitting her face so he could sever the nerve, but he wasn't strong enough to. I'm sorry you didn't like this film

What did you think of the opening scene with the Nirvana song? I thought that was pretty grim and wish there were more scenes like it in the movie as well as the MCU.

Damn, I expected a 10/10 for TWS, as it was your FAVORITE MCU movie, and even factually, it was even one of the best. For me, it ranked 2nd for the MCU films, behind Infinity War.

Black Widow sounds like the MCU equivalent of Birds of Prey.

Aight commenting on my new channel, TWS wins hands down. It's a 10/10 thriller fest, while BW at best was a 5/10 flick. Also, writing finished for Game of the Dead, and so I need to set up the server and we'll start filming.

YES! This is what I have been waiting for!

Me here still waiting for the Loki review. Though still, good video man

Honestly low key expecting Black Widow to get a lower score from you… Curious to know if there were any ‘redeeming’ qualities you found with it?

dang bro,your video of spiderman edge of time for 3ds news poped in my recommended and i watched it,and i clicked on your channel to see the rest of your videos and see that you have hitten puberty from the last 9 years lol

Will you do Suicide Squad vs The Suicide Squad or Venom vs Venom Let There Be Carnage?

Hey eric completley irelevant question but if i may ask what did you think of the punisher netflix series

lol it’s not even a contest, obviously The Winter Soldier is superior.

When a movie with Black Widow as a side character is a better Black Widow movie than Black Widow.

Do you think you will ever do a James Bond versus video? Those movies seem right up your alley.

That Yondu gibberish interruption scene, to me, is extremely hilarious. It's childish but always cracks me up.

I was actually so disappointed in the black widow movie. The trailers seemed pretty cool but the whole time I'm watching to movie, I was expecting more to happen and it never did.and I was Super excited for taskmaster and then we got that.

Could you please do a comparison video between the Jungle Book 2016 and Mowgli legend of the Jungle 2018?

Hey Eric, was wondering if you have seen the what if series yet. If you have, what did you think of it?

Both films made me fall asleep, but I would definitely watch the Winter Soldier over Black Widow.

Nice video btw have you watched what if and if you have will you make a video on it?

Winter Solider is definitely a stronger film.

When is sucide squad (2016) vs the suicide squad (2021) coming out? Just wondering I can wait all time.

So kids what did we learn:- Spider man no way home and Hawkeye are the only two mcu projects that Eric was able to enjoy himself with

I can't wait to hear your thoughts about shang-chi and the legend of the ten rings.

Hey, Eric! What was the music in 27:43 Sorry! The tone of the music just sounds soo good! 😄😄😄

Are you going to post your reactions to the trailers for Flash, Black Adam, Pacemaker and Batman on Patreon?

The post credit scene in black widow made no sense to me

Lets goooo. I'm so excited now

Eric have you seen the scream trailer if you have what's your thoughts and will you be doing a versus video on it please answer I broke my arm today 😔

Eric what was your thoughts on the soundtrack for winter soldier? I thought it’s easily one of the best soundtrack in the mcu.

And people says that Kevin Feige never makes mistakes lmao

I hope that when Yelena shows up in Hawkeye she'll tell Barton that she didn't buy the government lady's bullshit and was only looking for him to find closure for Natasha's death.

SPOILER FOR HAWKEYE 8 months later, the post credit scene is particularly irritating since they just resolved it by being like “you killed my sister”. “No I didn’t”. “Ok. Let’s be friends”

I thought I was the only one that noticed that Black Widow was exactly like Captain America the winter soldier. I didn't like The Black Widow movie and I think that both Scarlett Johansson and her character Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow were done a massive injustice by this solo movie. Thank You 👍😇

The scenes with Yandu making blabablidu noise and MBaku saying "Are you done?" are actually funny scenes. In fact I pretty much imitate Yandu a lot in real life when ppl keep telling me things I already know. However, I do agree with the rest. MCU tries too hard to be funny! MCU take notes from LOTR.

Are you looking forward to the Peacemaker show on HBO Max?

The only problem with the action in both films is the shaky cam and fast editing... you can make a violent PG13 fight scene without doing those 2 things that Jackie Chan hates...

I love this why don’t you have a 1 mil i am subbing

Have u seen Loki? It’s the best MCU show IMO. It seems very important to the future of the MCU as well.

Hey, I think this important. The scene with Pugh talking about the widow mutilation. I think that joke is definitely okay. Near perfect. As a victim of sexual Trauma, like myself. I use humor and kind of have a desensitized way I talk about it. And she’s a soldier essentially and has come to terms with it so even the way she was saying it was soooo similar to how I would talk about my trauma. It’s essentially a defensive mechanism to lessen the severity in our own minds. Idk. I’ve heard people complain about that and I love it. I think a lot of people that haven’t experienced major trauma want to be all precious and empathetic and say sorry. But a lot of us don’t want your pity. We’ve handled it. We just want to joke about it without making things awkward. So if you can joke back. It’s the best.

I didn’t watch your video yet but ima watch it when I get home :) cya later

What I would do to add stakes for Black Widow is that I would put her family in danger instead of Black Widow, that way she has something to lose, but before I do that, I would introduce the characters and bring out their emotional side so you can route for them to survive

I think this movie should've had a similar feel to Jason Bourne in the sense that it's an intense spy thriller with maybe a hint of horror. Obviously this movie should've come out after Civil War and before Infinity War. The jokes in the movie should be limited down to a few scenes between the family or Natasha and Yelena trying to rekindle their sisterhood. The idea I had for this film would is that the first act should've taken place over the course between the Avengers and Winter Soldier, showing how Natasha uses her connections at Sheild to try and track down where the Red Room is, and could maybe learn that Drakov was still alive. Then the events of Winter Soldier and AoU could hinder her ways of tracking it down. The second act could take place during the events of Civil War, she could be trying to take down the Red Room while also trying to stay undercover from the government. (We could even see some tech she kept ahold of like the face mask she uses in Winter Soldier and even in this very movie). Over the course of this Natasha and Yelena meet up after a while. It could be mentioned that Natasha thought Yelena was dead. Yelena's subplot prior to meeting Natasha could also show the ins and outs of the Red Room. We could get a better idea of how horrifying this place is. Also I thought the 3rd act would take place entirely inside of the Red Room facility. Natasha and Yelena are trying to get to Drakov and have to maneuver around the other Black Widows. It could have a claustrophobic horror movie feel. Even if this movie came out after Endgame with this idea, it could play with the fact that Black Widow herself doesn't change by keeping it as a spy thriller and letting the story unfold and keep us interested in the rest of backstory. Also I think the opening could've transitioned from Natasha and Yelena being taken as children to them being trained and before the title card we see Clint (Hawkeye) deciding not to kill her in Budapest.

It’s not even a contest, Winter Soldier is superior. BW 3/10 WS 9.5/10

Hey Eric, have you watch venom 2, because the end credits scene was pretty cool.

Seeing Marvel using Black Widow's solo film as nothing but a set up for future films makes me not trust them going forward and I'm really worried Spider-Man: No Way Home is gonna be a glorified advertisement for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Can you compare season 1 of the 2021 reboot of Kung Fu and the original series from 1972 starring David Carradine?

Hey Eric, have you seen the Injustice animated movie. In my opinion it was really good. It managed to get a 15 rating so it is bloody.

While I really like black widow it still got nothing on the winter soldier

Hey Eric did you see the new Batman and flash trailers? If so what did you think? :)

Winter soldier is way better

Black Widow Should have Been Like Captain America 2. Just Disappointed ☹️

Eric you should compare Dune 1984 vs 2021 when the new one comes out.
