Well, of course I would prefer two/three/more awesome female characters to one awesome female character (I hope that goes without saying), but one awesome one is better than more tacked-on ones and really, in Hollywood having more than one awesome female main character in action movies is so rare that it's pretty much a non-issue -- it seems our choices are between one awesome female character or one tacked-on one. >:( Still, that doesn't diminish the awesomeness you can get even within restrictions if you have a writer who cares.

I get why there was only one female Avenger in this movie -- I don't think any of the other female Avengers from the comics would have felt right being in this story given their superpowers, backstories or situations, which is the comics' problem, not really the movie's -- but yeah the "okay we have a woman, now let's pay attention to developing good scenes and characterizations for all the male characters and just remember to give her some screentime" attitude bugs me so much, and I was so glad it didn't happen here.
