      I think because he uses the tools of Hydra to destroy them the less vigilant viewers get confused. Reactors fall victim to this more because their attention is split during viewing and many aren't like taking notes to keep track from film to film.

    Zemo isn't Hydra. He used hydra for Intel, but generally in mcu he is an Independent party.

    Bucky does not lack "Game" or social skills. If you recall, he was the ladies man in the First cap movie; he is the guy that hooked Steve up with dates.
    Bucky said he spent the last 90 years going from fight to fight; he also remembers every person he has killed; thus his List of people he needs to make amends to.
    There is a reason he stays distant from some people.

      Its actually 80 years. Well 79 if we're being technical. If it was 90 years he'd have started fighting when he was 16 but he was 25 when he got conscripted.
      Zemo is apparently on the list, which is stupid since he has no reason to make amends to that guy. Also that Senator: he helped her get into power presumably by eliminating her rivesl, so he's not making amends to her.

  • @TotallyTVNATION

    The moment when Bucky says "If he was wrong about you, he was wrong about me..." It's so brilliant in the way that it shows so much insecurity in Bucky's redemption thus far. Yes, he's trying to be a good dude and make up for what he did as The Winter Soldier, but it's not until he admits that he's terrified that Steve was wrong that he starts to heal. Sam, of course, is going to have an antagonistic brother-like relationship with Bucky. They were both Steve's best friends for a reason and are brothers in many ways.
    I loved this one. I thought it was so layered. Next episode you're going to get Sebastian Stan's maybe finest performance as Bucky Barnes. The brutality, the comedy, the raw emotion, it's a masterpiece. There's a decent amount of action that episode but if you can pay attention to the dialogue, it's hilarious and also poignant.

    Zemo was in Captain America Civil War, and if you remember, he was against superheroes (he got rid of all the sleeping Winter Soldiers) because his family died back in Sokovia (Age of Ultron), I believe. So that's why he killed Nagel. He's not a fan of superheroes, especially super-soldiers, so he got rid of the scientist who could create more of them

    In spite of what many say, this is actually my favorite Disney+ show to date. John Walker is such a complex character and I love it. This is gonna be a short journey but damn it’s gonna be a fun one
    The plane scene had a lot of CGI, but they did do a lot of wire work with Anthony and had a real plane for them to interact and do stuff with. If you wanna see the BTS I’d recommend watching their Assembled series (they’ve been doing it for every project since Wandavision)
    Yup, that was indeed Georges St-Pierre
    “Spend a little time in Wakanda you come out White Panther”
    “It’s actually White Wolf”
    “Huh?”
    That little back and forth was my favorite
    Something to notice, John always introduces himself as “John Walker, Captain America” or just “Captain America” whereas Steve always no matter what simply introduced himself as “Steve Rogers.” Already showing the contrast between the two
    “Cap’s wingmen” my dude they’re Steve’s friends
    In the comics, Isaiah Bradley was “Black” Captain America
    Refresher (just in case): Zemo was the guy from Civil War who wanted to “watch an empire fall.” He’s not part of HYDRA, remember he drowned that HYDRA guy in his sink to get the notebook with Bucky’s trigger words
    “I stole the wings for your ass to save his ass from his ass” iconic 🤣
    Zemo dancing was such an internet breaking moment. Daniel Brühl revealed in an interview there was more footage of him dancing and that lead to people demanding they #ReleaseTheZemoCut and Marvel embraced the meme and the day before Episode 4 aired they released a video of the extended dancing sequence being looped for over an hour 🤣
    Hey look at Alex catching the callbacks! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 but I will say it was Civil War and Bucky asked Sam to move his seat. So this is his petty revenge for that 😅
    The next episode is my absolute favorite and I can’t wait to see Alex’s reaction. I already know it’s gonna be good

      @loganbigmo except that it's explicitly not the SSS since no one was able to replicate Erskine's formula until the guy in Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and even then that version still made Walker all twitchy. At best it was a Hydra knock off of the SSS.

      No one managed to replicate Erskine's perfected serum until Nagel (the guy in this show), but people have made it before. Red Guardian from _Black Widow_ got the Soviet Super Soldier Serum in the 1980s. Bucky got one created by HYDRA in 1940s.
      Howard Stark made the Super Soldier Serum (mentioned in Civil War & in this show) but it was vastly imperfect, hence why HYDRA hired Nagel.
      Don't forget Emil Blonsky, the guy from _The Incredible Hulk_ who received the serum sometime after the events of _Iron Man 1_

    This one had to be shut down in the middle of filming, and the plot line with the Flagsmashers had to be re-worked due to the pandemic.
    The second half of the series is my favorite.
    The call back to Sam asking about moving the car seat up was from "Captain America: Civil War" when Bucky was sitting in the backseat, and asked Sam to move the seat up. It was right before the airport fight. And Sam and Bucky were watching Steve and Sharon kiss.
    The actor who plays John Walker, the new Captain America, is actor Wyatt Russell. He's the son of actor Kurt Russell, who played Star-Lord's father Ego in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2".

    Great reaction and it's fun to see how varied the themes are between the various movies and shows. All of the Captain America, Falcon, Winter Soldier stuff is very much a political thriller which is interesting. I also really like how the villains have evolved from the simple "I want to take over the world b/c I'm evil" to the more complex where they have a valid point, even if their methods are wrong.
    One of the things this show does well is explore the logistical fallout of Thanos' snap and folks being blipped for 5 years. When folks were gone for five years, how many homes were foreclosed on, or cars repossessed, or lack of credit, or all kinds of things that having everyone instantly reappear would cause ALL SORTS of legal nightmares and property disputes. (As a lawyer Alex, I'm sure you could brainstorm some pretty interesting scenarios with that). So, it'd make sense that there would be some disenfranchised folks that got the short end of the stick when everyone came back that would be thinking, "things were better during the blip" and I think that's what makes the flag smashers interesting.
    Regarding "scrub captain america", it's useful to remember one of the big themes from Captain America: Civil War. The government wanted those "Sokovia Accords" because they didn't like the idea of Avengers being their own independent entity that wasn't subservient to a government. That's what the "civil war" part was about: Tony agreed w/ the idea of government oversight while Steve did not. Well, even though those accords ended up losing all meaning due to Thanos, the fact that the government STILL has this feeling of "we need the avengers on board" is rearing its' ugly head here. That's the reason that John Walker was named "new captain america" was that the government saw the opportunity to "get someone that will play ball" and fall in line with what the government wants him to do instead of following his own heart like Steve did. This ongoing sentiment is leading up to an upcoming movie, "The Thunderbolts" (summer of 2024), which is the government's team of "heroes" that will "play ball", but you see those seeds are being sowed here.
    Another thing being sowed here: Eli Bradley (grandson of Isiah Bradley) is YET ANOTHER teenager being introduced right after Billy and Tommy in WandaVision. As the phase 4 shows and movies continue on, make note of the teenagers. (There was a comic line called "Young Avengers", just sayin')
    Regarding your question about if Tony or Steve would come back, that "may" happen although nothing is confirmed, just lots of rumors. Starting with Loki (the next show after this one), the multiversal timeline becomes an important macguffin which opens the doors for pretty much anything to happen, "because multiverse". As far as WOULD they come back, I think that neither Robert Downey Jr., nor Chris Evans want to come back, "just to come back" - they'd want their return to be special and mean something. So, if they write a compelling enough and interesting enough story that lets them do something new with the characters that doesn't feel like a cash grab, then they'll likely be happy to come back. That same, "because multiverse" is how they are going to bring deadpool and the x-men into the mcu, the first easter egg of which is seen here: "Madripoor" is a fictional island nation that featured heavily in many x-men and mutant-themed storylines in the comics, so by having it here in the mcu is a subtle nod to, "good things are coming".
    Really interested for you to put your lawyer hat on and hear what you think about the legal fuckus of the snap and folks' return. It'd be a nightmare for sure.
    Cheers

    Steve mentionned in Age of Ultron that he can't afford a place in Brooklyn, & Sam can't get a loan - it's crazy to think that they risk their lives to save everyone so often, yet they don't earn enuff to pay the bills sometimes.

    “Craptain America” is a really interesting character. It’s a deep cut, but in the opening Madripoor scene (yep it’s a fictional place) they walk past a bar that wolverine used to spend a lot of time at. One of the first x-men Easter eggs in the MCU.

    Alex, Zemo will shoot you point blank, if you say that he is from Hydra, He hates Hydra, he hates their image, motto and everything else that is hydra. He knows their entire secrets, and he is totally against super soldiers, and hydra. Remember in Captain America Civil War, Zemo led Bucky and Cap (The real one) to Siberia where he had already shot the 5 other winter soldiers in their sleep, and when bucky discovers that, Zemo coldly says, if it is any comfort, they died in their sleep. I mean they were in Cryofreeze, but Zemo still put a bullet each in them, shows how much he hates super soldiers and the super soldier program. Those 5 winter soldiers were completely hydra, and he ended them, no questions asked.
    And now you know why Zemo shot Dr. Wilfred Nagel, he hates the super soldier program and anyone can re-create that serum, will be stopped by Baron Zemo.

    Zemo shot the guy who makes the serum because he’s adamantly against the creation of super powered people. He’ll do anything to destroy every trace of super powers. As he blames people like the Avengers for the death of his family (CA: Civil War). He actually killed the other “winter soldiers” in CA: Civil War.
    The reason Bucky and Sam recruited him is because he knows a lot about the inner workings of Hydra, while not being Hydra himself.

    Once you’ve finished the official MCU stuff, I highly recommend you watch Agents of SHIELD. The first half of the first season is comparably weak, mostly establishment and what not, but it ends up being one of the most emotionally satisfying shows in recent memory. It’s an action SF TV show with NO filler and some truly incredible writing. An ensemble where everyone matters, and a comment from season one can reappear 3 seasons later for a call back. It’s the Anti-Game of Thrones, as it gets TIGHTER, writing wise, as it progresses.
    Your approach to the MCU as a whole suggests you’re going to LOVE it. It’s tie-ins, like with Winter Soldier in particular, can’t be underestimated. Oh, and the helicarrier used in Age of Ultron originated with AoS, as well as the tool Fury uses to escape Bucky in Winter Soldier.
    The power of Fitzsimmons.
    And that’s all I’ll say about that.

    I know you keep calling him the Hydra dude, but if you'll remember in Civil War he was anti-Hydra. He found a book with information in it and followed it to Hydro operatives and then killed them. So he's not with Hydra, he just got super pissed at them and did everything in his power to destroy them after all of their information was put out on the internet but Black Widow. He wanted revenge for the death of his family.

    Just FYI, Zemo never worked for HYDRA; he's former Sokovian special forces. His family were killed during the Avengers' fight with Ultron so now he hates superheroes/superpowered people in general. In _Civil War_ he stole that HYDRA book from an agent of theirs with the brainwashing phrases that could manipulate Bucky as part of his plan to turn the Avengers (particularly Steve and Tony) against each other.

    Also, Alex, it's not just a subtle comedic moment, it's a callback to Civil War, where Bucky was behind, and he asked Sam to move his seat up, and due to the Winter Soldier programming still in him at that time, Bucky was unstable, anyone could activate him, by chanting the Hydra Formula. So, Sam did not move his seat up, and kind of kept Bucky as a prisoner over there. So bucky just got back at him for that, hence why Sam directly asked him, you are not going to move your seat up are you? And bucky instantly replies Nope.
