MARVEL's The Falcon and The Winter Soldier Official Thread

leaving it off with a phone call opens up unlimited possibilities. everything is planned, but they can basically pull anything out of their ass now. "Oh she works for Doom. Nope, Norman Osbourn. Nope! Wilson Fisk! Nope, Nick Fury, the fukk?!" doesn't matter, we get absolutely nothing from that storyline, so it's a blank canvas.

was kinda hoping it was gonna be

Spoiler

Mandarin and that's why they gave us the Shang-Chi trailer this week, to start that hypetrain

Would've been cool if she had a Ten Rings tat peeking out from one of her sleeves.

I agree on the Walker stuff. It's like they were sent a memo that he had to be redeemed fully by the end of the show so they just hand waved away all of his psychotic tendencies and made him a stand up guy.
It felt really odd.

Yeah because that ending with him getting his suit and new name is supposed to read as triumphant. Yea, he had a dope moment during the climatic fight and he looked like he finally “got it” but it all happened so damn quick that it feels like you’re right. Someone got a memo lol

Yeah I think some of that was due to covid. I don't think they had the ending that they wanted.

Way Sam uses the shield with the wings to get leverage
Maybe now he can stop getting his ass beat so much

Isiah gave the old man “ this nikka here” look when seeing him on tv. Lol

 

[Czerka]

They didn't earn walkers redemption because they didn't bother to make him sympathetic earlier in the show. He was supposed to be a war hero with ptsd so they should have shown us him saving livss in afghanistan or whatever

Sharon carter and karli are trash

The whole theme with Sam being captain america and isiah bradley was cool but anthony mackie sucks

Also don't care about buckys redemption, why are we supposed to care about this?

The rewrites really ruined this. The isiah bradley scenes and the action were the only good part for me

 

[Grifter]

Walker sill got them twitches.

 

[Marks]

Enjoyed it, all the action and super hero shyt was on point but the messaging was a mess, particularly with carli/flag smashers. Feels like they must have cut majority of the stuff that would make us sympthize more

He had to be somewhat redeemed. The video still exist but whatever team Contessa is starting can’t be fronted by a killer “Captain America” (and I’m assuming Black Widow) and be trusted.

I initially thought that it would be revealed that Sharon Carter is working some deep cover gig with Valentina but that doesn't look to be the case.

So I'm going to now assume that Sharon is a Skrull and her story will continue in the Secret Invasion show that's coming up. Because her behavior makes no sense otherwise.

That makes sense. Metaphor for the art forgery stuff in the Power Broker episode.

The real stuff is hidden and the fakes are running around in museums

i don't think it was ultimately the case, but this shyt felt like an 8 episode planned show that the pandemic sliced down to 6. i think it was always 6, but they definitely had to restructure a ton of the show once covid hit.

 

[Neuromancer]

I thought it was dope. Lol it’s basically what I wish I could say to every politician for the last 30 years

He was a different Cap for a different age. He knows what's going on and what needs to be done.

Yeah just like cap became a different cap from winter soldier on with those problems of the world, this cap has to evolve for these problems.

Notice he got most of the "hero" scenes. Saving hostages. There were Spider-Man x Superman scenes pushing the police truck.

He definitely could have had better fights, but seemed like he really didn't want to fight anyone including Batrock.
