Probably Bruce banner or a wong from Dr strange.


:mjlol: no........

If dr.strange didnt come out for Wanda's antics then wong definitely isnt getting involved in this.

Banner..nope, there saving him for the she-hulk show so you wont see hear.

You might get Hawkeye, micro possibility ant-man but that's it

He is and they definitely white
romania - Google otsing

No argument from me. Dude who posted that Romanians aren't white is definitely looking to argue or have pointless keyboard battle with people. Not my style so Imma let him keep thinking that Bucky, the fictional American born character from a comic book is Romanian and somehow not white :dead:

Wong isn't huge character but he is notable enough. Dr strange ain't showing up, but I can see wong doing so or one of the characters from the black widow movie like red guardian or general Ross.

I agree with you on Hawkeye tho. He didn't get many opportunities to stand out in the movies so he might really put in work on the show.

Wong's job is protecting reality, there is nothing in this storyline that engages in this therefore no wong.

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.

The only thing we know about Zemo is that he was obsessed with getting revenge against the avengers, right? I'm pretty sure he even has a hatred for super soldiers which is why he killed the dude who made them in the first place. In fact him using Sam and Bucky to lead him to kill the other super soldiers is the most in character thing from Zemo isn't it? And how did you like the 1st two episode better? I'm really curious because if this show had ended on the first two eps I would have called this show trash. Beyond the first scene of course. Slow, no decent action, no discernable plot, over the top emotional stuff, over the top comedy, iffy cinematography. This episode had movie level cinematography, better action, a concise plot, reasonable internal struggle, ,better character development, better story progression, decent amount of comedy, and a much better cliffhanger. If we get 3 more episodes of this it would be fire to me. It's like a mini mission impossible with MCU characters. What was good about the first 2 episodes? What was actually going on was barely established. I didn't even know who the villain was.

I mentioned GOT earlier and how toward the end, they took really dumb routes to pretty natural conclusions. I can see how Ep 3 might have felt a little like that.

I wouldn't say it's exactly out of character for Zemo to be doing what he do. But they did gloss over the break out in several ways. The ONLY way I will back track on knocking it is if there was some additional support players who wanted him out besides Bucky and Sam.

Show is 1-2 for me now.

I loved the second episode, was meh on the first and really disliked episode 3. That corny ass exposition for the villain who's becoming less impressive each episode. Everything Zemo was goofy as fukk, which is a shame because he was my favorite part of Civil War. That Agent Carter stuff was weird. Lmao at them hiding but as soon as there's a party they're just walking around and Zemo hitting the :stylin:.

Agree with @hex this Zemo shyt went way too fast. Like I of course fully expect him to betray them but the fact that they were so quick to help him bust out and chop it up with him is a major misfire.

2 things.

:whoa:

i. there were refilms and narrative changes - due to pandemic

ii. ep. 3 was a different writer to ep's. 1 and 2

so given the above and the fact that John Wick director hreh is new to the TV genre and its constraints, it's no wonder it felt different and not as technically and narrative set within the established context and genre limitations.

also Spellman did a good job of keeping "heart" and "people" at the centre of the narrative and that is another thing that ep. 3 was lacking.
