Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I've seen Scarlett do comedy before so I knew she's good at it even though it's not her main thing, but I never knew she could be THIS good! Absolute masterclass 😂❤️
She's a damn good actress who was wasted by Marvel.
I'm a big MCU fan and I totally agree.
I mean, she may have deserved more focus, but she did absolutely help elevate the story when given the chance. Hell, even that one line in Infinity War, "She's not alone." I remember getting the chills from it.
My one complaint about her death was that she didn't even mention or think of Bruce. I would have loved to have had that closure on their relationship, like her telling Clint "tell Bruce I love him" or something. I found their love story so heartbreaking and I wish I had gotten closure on it
Yes, totally agree, and I had the same thought.
Marvel movies are a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine, so I wouldn't necessarily say wasted, but I agree 100% on her acting chops!
People like to shit on what's popular so they shit on Marvel. If you had told me as a child that we'd get like 20 super hero movies that were all decent, that leads into a giant Avengers/marvel teamup against Thanos, I would have shit myself. And the whole thing turned out great. Better than star wars did originally and with the sequels. But since it's popular and run by Disney, people will shit all over it
No one will ever convince me that the universe and super-budget tv season they put together isn't a work of art.
Hard agree. Star wars ended up being total trash. Somehow avengers movies (while steadily decreasing in quality over time) are generally decent.
Ever see the marble columns sketch? She kills it.

Acting like you can't act is difficult. This is spot on.
I hadn't, thanks! 😄
I watched the whole thing earlier not realizing it was even her. The voice is completely different.
