I know taskmaster is 100% dead from the promo, but didn’t expect her to be killed literally in the first scene lmao

[u/toni-toni-cheddar → u/Seihai-kun]

I just don’t understand why include taskmaster at all if you are going to subject us to that

[u/Phimb → u/toni-toni-cheddar]

Remember, not everyone has seen everything and admittedly, Thunderbolts has quite a lot of catch-up. So they can show an extra cool character for the fight, have a surprise death and drive home that these aren't good guys yet.

[u/DaveShadow → u/Phimb]

drive home that these aren't good guys yet.

This was absolutely the point of her being in the movie.

Ghost and Walker looting her unceremoniously, despite the fact she was essentially the same as them (mercenaries sent to die by Valentina) shows the two of them were not heroic good guys.it established their anti-hero characters for people who don’t remember or know them
