This is their new Mephisto theory, except it's safer to guess on because they're talking about cut scenes so they don't have to worry about being proven wrong like last time.

Nah, I might be bugging but I could've swore I remember reading the original synopsis for this series had something to do with a virus. Like the Flag Smashers wanted to wipe out half the planet with a virus or something, to make it how it was during the snap.

Which is :yeshrug: to me, their motivation isn't really an issue for me either way.

did you listen to the ADR edits? (we already know that the answer is: no)

it was reported 1 year ago 'Falcon and The Winter Soldier' May Undergo Rewrites Due to Coronavirus Pandemic - MCUExchange .
Every show goes through rewrites. and scenes get cut and changed in post production. Theorizing on the whys and what fors is just random guess work like they did on Wandavision. If they can draw parallels to police mistreatment of black people and racism why would they have a problem with drawing parallels to the pandemic, that isn't even as triggering or controversial to people as racism. They probably just removed a subplot for pacing since they only have six episodes thats all. not because rona made it hit too close to home

No way in hell he's gonna give up the shield. If nothing else this might've put a battery in his back.

As far as Zemo....no idea. Not feeling what they did with the character at all, this entire series so far.

If Marvel is smart they'll do an Isaiah series or something where he's younger. As an added bonus we'd get to see TWS which was a complaint I see often in this series. Bucky hasn't really been allowed to spaz out.

As far as the Power Broker....they don't have to wrap that up here. There is only 2 eps left but most of these story lines will continue in some capacity in future MCU movies or series.

Speaking of which, I honestly don't care if Marvel never releases another movie. They should just do series form here on out. Imagine "Infinity War", but if it was a 6-8 episode series instead of a movie. :wow:

Fred.
I like Zemo showing more personality honestly :yeshrug:I'm all in for more OG Cap stories:wow:

Kind of felt like I was watching Homelander at that last scene

I like them showing more personality but I'm not feeling them trying to turn him into another Loki.

Fred.
That's done because besides Thanos and possibly Vulture no one has really cared for villains plus they always killed them off lol. From how he tried to empty the clip on Kari that ruthlessness is definitely still there though and they show glimpses to remind you he is a cold blooded killer. Loki is damn near comic relief:mjlol::mjlol:

I mean.....Marvel released an hour long video of Zemo dancing. I wouldn't say that's too far off from what they did to Loki.

Honestly Loki hasn't been a threat since the first Avengers movie. But that was 9 years ago. They had time to make him a side kick/anti-hero/comic relief.

The last time we seen Zemo was "Civil War", where he blew up the UN and killed King T'Chaka. I'm not really trying to see dude be funny or dance or be an ally in his very first appearance since that. It's way too soon.

Yeah I don't buy it, Zemo's clearly up to something. I think he's just playing it cute....however the more I see of this fleshed out Zemo, the more his white boy vibes come out and he's less of a threat :mjlol::mjlol:
