I loved the first two eps, thought this one was pretty wack. :manny:
The writing was loose as hell. I don't expect this shyt to be "The Wire" but talking about how dangerous Zemo is then showing a literal 90 second montage of how he broke out was :francis: but I was willing to let it ride as long as the rest of the ep was cool.
But then they tried to pull a Loki with Zemo. :francis:

Loki went from being a straight up villain to a sort of anti-hero and one of the most well liked characters in the MCU. Cool. But it took years and several appearances across multiple movies.

Zemo is a whole ass terrorist. The last time we seen him was "Civil War", which he set into motion. So I don't get Bucky and Sam kicking it with him like it's all good. I know the trope, where it's desperate times and enemies are forced to work together....but it was a bit too much for me. Especially with him going out of his way to help them. Doesn't make sense with what we know about the character.

But whatever. Ep was entertaining, Agent Carter was dope, I enjoyed seeing fake Cap get sonned and Zemo's fit was fire. But they need to tighten the writing up man.

no spoilers but who you think is the cameo for ep 5
Probably Bruce banner or a wong from Dr strange.

Side note: these cats clearly been studying those John wick films. Those fight scenes were wild.

Also Baron Zemo probably got the best Drip in the MCU. That jacket. I need that :whew:
