After the release of WandaVision, Disney is continuing their onslaught of streaming series taking place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe being released on Disney Plus with The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, starring Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan.
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier definitely raises some questions. Like what exactly is going on with the Flag Smashers are why are their plans so vague? What did John Walker expect to accomplish with that non-vibranium shield? Why would Disney cast the same actress from Solo: A Star Wars Story for pretty much the exact same role? Was that Power Broker thing meant to be a big twist? Are we supposed to think that Karli is NOT evil? Why isn’t the top of Sam’s head protected at all?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to The Falcon and the Winter Soldier! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

Karli after bombing that building : "The only language these people understand is violence"
Karli after John Walker kills that dude: *shocked pikachu meme*
And in the circumstance it was understandable how that happened.
Karli: his life didn’t matter (Lamar)
Twitter: calls her racist
Me: I can’t say she didn’t ask for it, but I’ll never side for Twitter
Twitter said she’s racist? She has a Jamaican father and Irish mother irl, she is a biracial ginger that’s a double minority lol
@@jjackson6082 And do you think Twitter is a logical place?
You don't understand, it's different! It's only OK to kill people when they do the killing!
"He is fully protected except his head where his brain is." LOL
It worked for Gordon freeman
Lol this made me cry 🤣
That's where he's the least vulnerable. Much like the writer of this series.
This one made me laugh
Glad someone finally mentioned this part of his outfit... lol
"So it's very sad-"
"IS IT?....."
Literally, my mood the entire series...
XD
When Lamar died tho...
@@L0rdskywarpbestyoutuber that wasn’t bad. Issayahs story tho
Is it sad?

@italkcrab Do they though? Do they really?
Sam: this girl died trying to...
Senator: trying to do what?
Sam: ...trying to kill me.
Yeah, she needs to go to the raft too.
Hahahaha
@@horusgarcia1 but she dead
@@Marvelfanatic3658 Is she? It's Marvel, nobody really dies.
@@horusgarcia1 exactly
Karli the supersoldier with advanced healing factor dies from a bullet to the gut. Sharon Carter takes a bullet to the gut and walks it off without an ambulance. Plot armor is the real superpower.
Was Sharon wearing bulletproof armor? It seems like a thing she would do, considering she's former SHIELD.
Yeah but you see this is the character killing gun from One Piece.
i think sharon is skrull
they have hard skins (shown in captain marvel) :)
she shot her multiple times
not sure if the serum can do anything at this point
While it increases your durability, super serum still does not make you bulletproof, you will die to bullets. And in this case it also doesn't give much of a super healing either, as Walker gets his arm broken and it still hasn't healed when he is shown in court.
“Karli is going to try really hard to kill Sam because she’s a sympathetic character.” 😂
Haha yeah I heard that in the video too!
Hahaha
Walker tried to kill Sam too AND he ripped Sam's wings off but he IS a sympathetic character. What's a little homicidal rage between friends? These are tough times we're living in.
@@caroline10081 except that the show always tried to paint Walker as a bad guy, but not to Karli
@@nont18411 yeah because woke.
2 years and I still cant believe they made a guy who killed 1 person in a heat of an anger the villain while the literal terrorist was just a misunderstood kid with a good cause.
Which character is a minority and which one isn't?
Yea its baffling that a bunch of real world villains would make fantasy shows depicting villains as victims and heroes as monsters....
This show was made by hypocrites, dont even bother analysing it
Well, that was well put
The terrorists were analogues for illegal border jumpers
I love Marvel but can't shake the feeling that Sam's speech doesn't make any sense.
I honestly think it was because disney is trying to act woke and be like "people who are fighting for political purposes who are fighting for causes they think are good using violence is fine". This would also go along with 60% of the entire show being about how people of color are still extremley oppressed in 2021.
Political propaganda
I get what they were trying to go for and the overall message was fine, but I also got this feeling that the speech wouldn’t land well with the audience
This is a constant issue I had with the show, that it felt like they never wanted to fully commit to anything. The villain is radical, evil, and kills innocent people with no remorse, and she's a charismatic leader, BUUUT also she's really just a horribly misunderstood shy girl trying her best. The Flag Smashers have... some vague plan I guess.
The racial commentary feels like a mix of being genuine and also trying to pander and appear woke, but also not trying to appear too woke.
It felt like I watched a show that was more interested in preaching to me how America hates black people and black people are still super oppressed in 2021 but also the show was afraid to even fully commit to telling me that.
The most interesting bits were ironically the storylines with John Walker and Bucky because it mostly felt like the stories had the most focus there... well, except for how John Walker gets punished for killing a single actual terrorist while Bucky and Falcon have killed plenty of goons themselves with no issue.
Falcon as a character hasn't been very interesting to me and most of his story aspects feel confused. I wish we got more of Bucky but it feels like he got sidelined to focus on non-commitingly telling us how America is still super racist instead.
The main point of the first half of the speech was that the Senators were so far removed from the common people that it took a horrific event for them to pay attention. The second half was that after careful consideration, he is Captain America.
Karli is such a sympathetic character
*Blows up a building with people in it*
The killed innocent people, but they aren't terrorists. LOL
do better senator.
The point of her arc is to show that she's losing herself in the plan, though; she does that blow-up-building thing right after someone she loves dies due to an illness contracted in one of those crowded camps, so it's clear she is emotionally devastated and angry.
This shows misplaced morality was shambolic at the best of times
@@DenderFriend How this exactly makes her sympathetic though? Everyone suffers, but not everyone blow up a building filled up with civilians
*when you realise Karli killed more people than Zemo but she’s just a misguided person*
And you also realise that Zemo will kill anyone he needs for his purpose, sure, but his purpose is actually to avoid supremacists taking over the world...
“Who are you gonna believe? Me or you lying eyes?”
@@Kyrielsh1 and he tried to avenge his family
@Jerry scotti and quoted Lincoln 😂.
@Jerry scotti the bigger problem was that he did in the public, against an unarmed guy which was pleading mercy, while wearing CA's uniform. I don't think the problem was him "killing" specifically, he was a veteran soldier, I'm sure he killed a lot of people. The problem was the context.
Finally someone mentions the senator at the end. He brought up a great point and Sam just gives him empty words
Sam totally should have been in prison for actually on the side of the terrorist. Thaddeus Foss should have been in the show and order for an arrest.
Sam made no sense and they played it like he made a great speech. That part was really disappointing.
@@EventualWarlord But according to him, they aren't terrorists.
Sam was cool.✊🏾
Everyone is a terrorist to someone else.
The "twist" with Sharon was so telegraphed I was beginning to think she wasn't the powerbroker.
I know right?! I think I was more surprised at Bucky being the Winter Soldier than I was at Sharon being the powerbroker.
I was more surprised that Sam became Captain America.
I get the point about Carter being hinted at early on as the Powerbroker, but I honestly just saw her as another player in a city filled with them, set in a comic universe with plenty of that type of characters to include. So I can see why someone would guess it, but someone being certain of it means to ignore parts of the show
@@JachAnen They made it super outside for people who read stuff about the show week to week. They kept saying, it's someone you seen before and then Sharon just shows up in the city the Powerbroker is in.
@@bcmcbride518 But they'd already been doing a lot of BS for Wandavision. You can't trust what they tease will happen, only what actually happens
“Sharon is going to shoot her dead so it’s very sad.” “Is it?” Lmao
best line in the entire video
It's not.
"Now sad music is gonna play"
"Why?"
"MUMMA DONYA"
sharon is suppose to be evil, but she shot a terrorist ringleader, that makes her the hero of the show to me.
@@egacide IKR? Nowadays it's sad when a terrorist gets shot while attempting to kill people.
“Do better Senator.” 😂😂😂
Hollywood’s answer to everything lol
Apparently we need a "do better Hollywood"😆
@@ivettegutierreztorres4272 LOL!
"Stop calling these people terrorists."
Like, what?
Senator: "How?"
Sam: "Huh?"
Senator: "We have been tasked with the fair and equal relocation of more than 3.5 billion people as well as all the drama that comes with personal property. You demand that we do better. How?"
Sam: "Uh... well, uh... oh! The bat signal!" **flies away**
@@silverblade357 😆
Senator: “So what should we do?”
Sam: ”Do better…”
Senator: “Uh… you gonna help make it better… or?…”
Sam: “Nope!”
I can’t believe people actually defended that scene. They made it cannon that Sam has no idea how the real word works besides being a soldier
LOL
One of the most Cringe-worthy Scenes in MCU History.
But the said that thing the kids say, so it’s great amirite?
The show made sense, and then they had to ruin it with that scene. Sam was completely disconnected from reality with that dialogue.
About halfway through the show I asked my husband, “What’s the flagsmashers’ goal again? I can’t remember what they’re trying to do.” He couldn’t tell me.
Apparently they deleted the whole subplot of what the flagsmashers wanted because of covid-19. It had something to do with a pandemic which Disney felt was too close to home so they changed it
@@bern9642 Apparently that rumor wasn't true.
@@postalflap the writers calm it was true.
@@bern9642 apparently people can say whatever they want if they don’t cite their source
I'd say that sums up a lot of similar groups. No clear, definable goal beyond "better" and no clear, definable path to achieve it. Past progressive movements had definable goals with measurable outcomes. Something like "We want the right to vote" is a defined goal with a clear path and a measurable outcome. Generalizations and constantly shifting goalposts don't allow for defined goals with clear paths and measurable outcomes.
“Oh I don’t know how to feel about this guy but I’m captivated” is the perfect description of John Walker.
"CAPtivated"
@@lluewhyn THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING
I agree. It’s amazing how many people are feeling to understand the depth of this character and how he suffered by doing what we asked him to do to the point where it screwed him up and he still trying to do the right thing.
You can look at them and say hey that’s wrong hey that’s bad you’re falling short of that superhero mantle you are failing to live up to what you’re trying to be but he’s trying.
I loved that statement! He played his role perfectly and I hope people can understand that he is different than his character
I always liked US Agent and its pretty cool to see some of my favorite superheroes become more popular like him and moon knight
".....he's completely protected, except the top of his head where his brain is" I can't breathe from laughing so hard
Even Cap wear helmet. Just saying.
Yeah falcon not having a helmet be a part of his kit despite being special forces is strange. Warren Worthington III makes since as he is a mutant but Sam is pure human
@@owl77 to be fair most superhero suit designs are impractical even Cap's cowl, whenever i see a superhero like Cap and Batman i keep wondering why bad guys don't just shoot at their mouth?
@@owl77 unless you're Hulk and Thor level beings they should have a suit that actually protects their whole body. I think Black Panther and Iron man has the most practical suits because it actually protects their whole body.
@@owl77
Even Cap wore a cap.
Wonder why Walker is a bad person when he kills one person but Falcon kills loads in the first scene. Zemo is bad and hardly kills anyone but Karli who kills and sets buses of people on fire is just misunderstood 🤔 Worried about Disney logic right now. 🤔
Walker injected an illegal substance into himself then smashed the head of a surrendered combatant. That's not the same as Falcon--a special operations airmen--killing enemy combatants in battle. I'm not even speaking from a point of opinion, most governments have rules of engagement and the distinction here is clear.
Watch the show again, all the supposed bad people believe they are doing the right thing. Walker, Karli and Zemo. In the end, Walker changed his way and became good..
And Walker decided to kill that person in front of the camera and with people filming. He lost control. When falcon is killing people he is still in control and does it because it's the plan not because he's angry.
Walker killed someone that was surrendering. Falcon killed people that were trying to kill him first. It's that simple.
@@CouchSpud91 Did you forget that the “surrendering” person seconds ago was actively restraining Walker so that he could be murdered? And who’s to say the people fighting Sam wouldn’t have surrendered if he had given them the chance? Maybe he blew them up before they had the chance to surrender?
@@CaptainPikeachu Well if you're in battle most people aren't going to have the chance to surrender. That doesn't make it the other person's fault for shooting the enemy before they can shoot first.
You know what pissed me off? When Lamar died, they all kept watching and sam and bucky literally did nothing to catch karlie and her followers. They LET them escape just because plot
They didn't do anything when Captain Douche straight up murdered that guy either.
@@soundwavevr6164 that too!
@@Girl-di5dg It's a whole reason why I dislike people trying to root for Karli like "yeah she's justifed" like are you bloody crazy. Nothing she did was good. Lamar died only so his best friend can be slandered because "optics" of IRL are more important than comic accuracy. Since in the comic USAgent didn't want to fight Falcon at all until they setup Falcon to look bad and made him get the shield back.
Not to mention that Lemar died because Sam and Bucky was so shitty at their job at supporting Walker and Lemar.
@@soundwavevr6164 excuse me but I think the way you hate him is so hypocritical. you have no problem with Sam killing so many terrorist while you have a problem with a white guy killing someone who murdered his best friend. talk about being pathetic
“Oh Karli is full on EVIL.....” “Uh no.....we’re going to act like she’s just misunderstood.” Nailed it!
They did the same with zemo, zemo killed as many people if not more than karli but they succeeded with zemo and we don't think of him as full on evil but failed with karli
She’s very misunderstood
@@sameerkhaleel2027 that's because Zemo was portrayed as an anti-villian, Karli was not
@@webdesignerplays yeah, they wanted to portray karli as a anti villian too, otherwise they would not have made her blow up the building, but they failed, I guess the writing was bad as it was with sharon
@@sameerkhaleel2027 I honestly think the writers couldn't decide wether she was going to be a villian or not so in some scenes she's pure evil and in other she's a poor girl who doesn't know what she's doing
Still wish it was called “Captain America and the White Wolf” at the end. It shouldn’t have said Winter Soldier because I feel like the whole point of the season for Bucky was to drop that persona
Edit: Captain America and Sergeant Barnes could’ve been cool too, being as he was a sergeant and even a cop calls him Sergeant Barnes in the finale

Logique
It's almost as if killing an unarmed prisoner who has just surrendered to you is different to fighting back against people shooting rockets at you.
@@Ahrlin9 I keep seeing people say the guy was surrendering, and...he wasn't? He was fleeing, hurling enormous objects at Walker (which would absolutely kill a normal person if hit), and then when Walker tackled him he screamed 'It wasn't me!' as if not having personally been the one to stab Lamar was the issue. He's also a super soldier in a group with a reputation for killing civilians, and he was a second or two away from potentially entering a crowd of civilians.
Not 'Logique'. Optics.
I am starting to wonder if this show was Marvel intentionally trying to redpill people... By showing the reality of BLM's violent and nonsensical position, and the cops killing "unarmed black men" narrative...

But he’s not that bad eventually kinda...
But not great! ”
*Very accurate description of John Walker in the show* 😂
Walker wasn't evil, but he was egotistical and convinced that he was always right. When the armored car was about to fall, it was a wake-up call for him that his duty was to be a protector, not a killer.
Not all characters need to be black and white. I'm not saying he's well written but this is kind of a flawed criticism.
@@Deadpool-kb5yo The problem is that the show tries to portray him in either a black or a white light. He would've been okay as a morally grey revenge machine.
@@VivekYadav-ds8oz yeah I felt the same way. I think some of his behaviour is very common place in our day to day world, especially the ego. So it wasn’t too odd to see. He’s definitely a grey character. It’s more realistic that way and I wished the show did more to showcase that
@@VivekYadav-ds8oz yeah, the writing on this show was awful.
The "He's fully protected... except the top of his head where his brain is" line had me dying 🤣
Screenwriter: "So Walker has this moment where he has to choose between saving a truck full of Senators or chasing after Morgenthau."
Producer: "Being a hero vs exacting revenge, I like it!"
Screenwriter: "Yeah, and he's going to choose to be a hero, and he even throws down his shield as a sign of him letting go of his anger."
Producer: "Wowowowow"
Screenwriter: "But as he starts pulling the truck up, Karli and the other Flagsmashers start attacking him because they really want these Senators to die."
Producer: "Okay, so we're definitely past the whole 'sympathetic villain' thing now, right?"
Screenwriter: "Nope, super sympathetic villains here!"
Producer: "They're attacking Walker for the sole purpose of making sure he can't save people. That might actually be worse than killing them directly."
Screenwriter: "Oh it's awful, but Karli's still really just misunderstood."
Producer: "OK I guess..."
Fun fact: If Napoleon had only told his starving and exhausted men to "Do Better", during their invasion of Russia, they would have won the war.
If Hitler was told to "Do Better" would he assume it means to kill fewer jews or more?
Napoleon took Moscow, but most of his " Grande Armee" disintegrated from starvation and cold on the way back home.

Carli killed more people the Zemo
Sam: "She is not a terrorist"
Uh no she didn't Zeno blew up the UN, killed a psychologist to take his place, (probably killed that guy with the emp or at least a delivery driver) 5 frozen people.
You could possibly also hold him accountable for all the people Bucky killed when the swat team was sent for him. And possibly anyone who died in the radius of the electrical outage or emp who needed sensitive medical equipment to live. So pace makers, people on vents, people in the middle of delicate surgery. Premature babies....
And then he also shot a bunch of people in this series on top of it.

One thing that bothered me about the whole topic of black heroes apparently not being accepted by America as their symbol...
*Did they just forget about Rhodey being the Iron Patriot?! His character literally appears in the show!*
The people who wrote this also thought Black Panther was the first Black lead Superhero film and that Captain Marvel was the first female lead one.
The people who wrote this show thinks 21st century America is 1950's America
Iron Man wears an enclosed suit, anyone could be in there! With the Captain, America is in his name, you see his face. There is a distinction between the hero standing front and center or beside.
Iron man isn't captain america
It wasn’t about black heroes not being accepted, it was about black heroes upholding an institution that historically was racist.

And very tight
I loved that bit when Sharon was badly hurt and needed immediate medical assistance but Sam just left her so he could fly into shot with a dead terrorist so he could tell her story or something. I'm not even sure what that was about.
The nonsense writing of the show.
Key takeaway from the video: never question the charisma of Daniel Brühl (Zemo's actor). He made the dance scene so good that it went viral.
Outro title card should've been Captain America and White Wolf, goddamn it. Thanks for validating that for me. Bucky even calls himself White Wolf at one point.
Yeah or just his name Bucky Barnes. Honestly he had better character development then Falcon did.
Ayo calls him that as well. Twice.
Seargent Barnes would've been acceptable too.
I'd be up for seeing Bucky in the White Wolf outfit from the comics. It's pretty much T'Challa's outfit but inverted-white with black accents whereas Panther's is black with gold.
James.👏 Buchanan.👏 Barnes.👏
Not seeing Bucky's conversation as part of his redemption was such a missed opportunity.
Could've been his Emmy award moment, tbh.
yeah, they really dropped us on our heads there
True
I thought your sentence was gonna end with "is tight"
Yeah but now they have something to use in a future movie, which is really what these little series are for. They're basically extended mid/post credit scenes
7:01 You forgot that this "Getting Told" of Isaiah's story is by literally hiding one plaque and statue behind a practically hidden door off another exhibit that no one would ever go into because it seems like it isn't for visitors.
pretty much said what I was thinking. There's ways to do nuance and moral ambiguity, but this wasn't it. It was as if Karli was seeming too sympathetic at first, so they flipped a switch to make her evil, rather than a gradual progression. So she seemed like 2 different personalities. Same with Walker.
Plus, Walker kills a terrorist and is court martialed with the Captain America label taken away. Sam is holding Karli's dead body, the leader of the terrorists, and Sam gets a hero's reception. Walker was following orders. Whereas Sam went rogue and vigilante...

Building up things that aren't gonna be in the plot is TIGHT
Well I don’t mind that. If they don’t build up things that seemingly go nowhere shows become very predictable. I was actually 100% sure Sharon wasn’t the Broker because it was so obvious. In a way, they threw me off the trail! Lol
Karli : "I want you to get all the way off my back about that"
@@rafliavriza3651 yk they had to have a MAJOR rewrite at the last moment due to covid so that’s why a lot of the things that seem to be going somewhere end up not having any impact at all

"And we're also gonna give Sam his own subplot."
"Oh we are?"
"Yeah Sam's sister Sarah wants to sell a boat but Sam doesn't want her to because it originally belonged to their parents."
"And why does any of this matter?"
"So we can focus on Sam!"
"But Bucky's subplot is much more interesting. Shouldn't we focus on him instead?"
"Look sir, I'm gonna need you to get ALL the way off my back about who we're focusing on."

@@MrHanbam Attack on Titan, right? Man, if they could get rid of the titan curse why didn't the first King (or any of his successors) did that instead of slowly killing the entire Eldian race?
She was a mostly peaceful protester
I didn't even realize that we weren't supposed to know that Sharon was the power broker.
I just kind of forgot about the Power Broker.
Power Broker is a villain? Sharon become the bad guy now, after Steve Rogers left her?
I'm apparently the only one who did not see that one coming. I love being so oblivious to movies hints. It makes them more enjoyable.
I thought the twist was she was actually working for Madame Hydra the whole time as a front for the Power Broker.
Right! I felt like it was a fact even before the "reveal" for sure! :D
Writer: And while this is happening we're gonna have this arc where Sam and his sister can't get a loan from the bank.
Producer: Isn't he part of a high budget superhero team led by an Elon Musk-esque Billionaire? Why does he need a loan?
Writer: Oh, Sam is going to say that Avengers don't get paid.
Producer: Why would the Avengers not get paid?
Writer: So this Arc can happen!
Producer: Fair enough! Are we going to give that a big resolution?
Writer: Nah, we're barely gonna acknowledge that it happened.
Also, even if he has no money, how TF does he not have the credit??? He's a WORLD FAMOUS superhero! The man is a bigger celebrity than the actor who plays him!
Honestly, Sam would get tons of money if he tried begging on the streets.
Fr, that bugged me so hard. Like wtf, he's literally one of the most famous people on planet earth, he even helped SAVING said planet, and you're telling me they wouldn't give him a loan?
I liked how in Dr Strange 2 they made it very believable that Strange was a celebrity and lived a pretty comfortable life as a result (wears nice clothes, goes to fancy events etc)
its funny because avengers did get paid, they got 1k a week (or month I forget)
Unpopular opinion John Walker was never that bad you know what they said
I agree. I mean the only thing he actually did that was bad was have a public execution then again he was responsible for multiple innocent peoples lives
@@ihavenocommonsensebut2008 "Captain America kills unarmed black man!"
Yeah, sure, he was a super soldier terrorist who was actively trying to kill him and innocent civilians, but we just won't report on that part until months after the fact...

I disagree with the idea this is an unpopular opinion. Just looking at the comment on this video, this is clearly a shared opinion.
Not bad AT ALL
I thought he was extremely likeable in all honesty and the attempt to paint him as villain are absolutely BAFFLING.
The fact that the show is called "Falcon and the Winter Soldier" and in the first episode Bucky literally said: "I'm no longer the Winter Soldier"...
Marvel: Yeah no, we don't care. He's the Winter Soldier
Well that's literally his main identity both in the movies and comics. But I do think they should've gone with "Captain America and the White Wolf" for the final outtro.
@@nathanieldiaz5254 yeah, that's true. But then I find the choice of words weird, for him to literally say what he no longer is when it is what we call him. I hope in the future they will change how he's called 😊

"Wow! So she makes sure to divulge that critical piece of information to Sam before she dies, right?"
"Nope, we need another season!"
If there is another season, Bucky better be the star. Sharon second.
Karli was literally trying to kill Falcon, yet Falcon doesn't want to call her a terrorist
"Baron Zemo is gonna do a little dance"
Still the best scene in the show
i think that says enough about the show as a whole
Not really
I didn't even notice it, I don't even know which episode it was in so yeah they definitely should have ad more than just a second of it.
If you think that is the best scene then yeah this show is just terrible.
they should've gotten Justin Hammer to dance with him
"they're gonna take some super serum and uh, em, ah, um, go...go get it done"
Lmao it's so true
Was more random acts of terror to try and pressure the governments, but close enough.
Weren't they doing some Robin Hood stuff in the beginning by stealing medicines to help refugees who were left ignored by the governments. When the governments sought to take the refugees into poorly prepared and equipped camps they tried to use violence to intimidate the governments into changing their plans. Not justifying or criticizing their course of action, just analyzing it.
So the Flag Smashers have came up with a plan and are doing the plan that we have no clue it's about?
@@JZBaltazar Definitely Robin Hood stuff, but with extremists delivery. Honestly it was a bunch of young adults and teenagers so angry that they believed violence and murder was rational to support their cause. The conversations between Karli and Sam were great because Sam tried to explain how her extreme approach causes more problems and makes her no better than the government. But in that final fight Sam gave her many chances to change and she didn't. So, yeah, Extremist Robin Hood.
Falcon in Avengers: "I'm a badass superhero."
Falcon in this show: "I'm black."
Ye, about that. I don't get it. They were constantly repeating this very same thing for 6 episodes.
"He's fully protected except the top of his head where his brain is." XD
Under rated .^^^^^.🤣. Im pretty sure the brain is important to a HUMAN character 🤣
I’M SO GLAD YOU MENTIONED BUCKY STILL BEING CALLED THE WINTER SOLDIER IN THE END TITLE IT IRKED ME SO MUCH
I feel you.
CAPTAIN AMERICA AND... Bucky 😂
@@nickobeazo I think the fans hoped for "Captain America and White Wolf"
Surprised they didn't change the title to: Captain America and the White Wolf. That would have been badass.
My theory on that is that while Bucky’s actions as the Winter Soldier weren’t his fault, it’s still a part of him. His recovery made him who he is. So rather than drop the name, he’s going to reclaim it.
"Do Better, Senator", yeah, that sounds like it's going to help a lot. No one has ever tried that before.
It's perfectly vague, like Disney's commitment to social justice :P
And senator says:
That fancy shmancy wakanda suit doesn't protect your brain case.
Why don't you do better?
Shaming tactics.
Well in real life, our Government can do better. Like WAY better. Like barely an inconvenience better. But they'd really rather not, because you know money and greed. So I'm gonna need you to get AAAALLLLLLLLLLLL the way off my back about the specifics of this thing.
That whole monologue was not worth it. That style of writing was understood in the 80's but not now. Especially when we know people don't care t listen.

@@galarstar052 it seems you are not familiar with ANTIFA.
That organization it’s based in vague political points that have been straw man so they make sense.
They meet in secret places to discuss their plans. Such as a cafe they use in Portland were they use a separate room to have the meeting or in other places their trainings. Or saying it in other terms “saying things quietly”.
And finally low information voters such as them are really into that to peruse their political agenda.
I hope you now understand to see is not a stretch. The argument it’s right on point.
"Hasn't Bucky's whole arc been about not being the 'Winter Soldier' anymore?"

@@yogieyo9935 Vibranium is made of plot-conveniencium, it can do anything
@@kingdonut8272 lmao
Something that ticks me off (a lot) is the fact Marvel outright said they "don't want Isaiah Bradley to be wrong" about saying "any self respecting black man wouldn't [want to be Captain America.]" It COMPLETELY undercuts the fact that Sam proved them WRONG and showed what he could do no matter his skin color - that's unity, but Marvel wants Isaiah to be right, and therefore for America to be racist...? The heck...
I'm surprised he didn't mention how Sam forgot how to catch the shield even though he could catch it just fine a couple episodes earlier.
To be honest, judging by screentime, this show is more like: Ｔｈｅ Ｆａｌｃｏｎ ᵃⁿᵈ ᵀʰᵉ ᵂᶦⁿᵗᵉʳ ˢᵒˡᵈᶦᵉʳ

God, the race politics was everywhere in the show! I wouldn’t have minded if it was just in the scenes with Isaiah Bradley (because it actually made sense in the context), but they just shove it in so many other scenes for NO reason. Like literally the falcon is lifting up the armored car with the hostages, the shot changes to a crowd composed LITERALLY of only people of color going “is that the falcon”, “no that’s black Captain America” (or something close to that).
It’s like the writers COULDN’T HELP THEMSELVES, so they just felt the need to CONSTANTLY remind the audience that Anthony Mackie is indeed black.
@@courier6960 so mad hahaha. At basically nothing lmao.

I was going for "The Falcon and Karli Morgenthau with a dash of John Walker".
Am I the only one who thought John walker was the best character in the show and honestly is one of my favorite characters in the mcu as of now?
Don't worry, you're not alone.
Same. Wyatt gave a great performance.
They really didn't need to turn Zemo into a sugar daddy but they did and I'm forever grateful.
Mars Attack Pitch Meeting 👽
Zaddy
I mean he always was "Baron Zemo"
Irresistible
He was always a rich guy. The dude literally had obtained an EMP in Civil war
" And Karlie just goes to town on Walker. I mean, just totally kicking his butt."
"Isn't Walker a decorated military officer with years of training?"
"Yeah, but she has super soldier serum, so she's like super strong."
"But doesnt Walker have that same super soldier serum coursing through his veins? Shouldnt that only put them at equal strength? He would still be more skilled at fighting than her. Same for Bucky as well."
To be fair, Karli has had the serum for way longer and is more used to its capabilities. Its also implied that Sharon trained the Flagsmashers as the Power Broker. So its not completely unreasonable for her to hold her own. And in terms of Bucky, its stated that this new serum is more efficient and effective than even Steve's, so its fair Bucky struggled.
I get that Bucky doesn't want to hurt or kill anyone anymore so that's why he always holds back but I really wish they'd show that same Winter Soldier strength from that fight with cap again. It was so amazing and awesome.
@@hugenerd4041 Carter wouldnt teach her everything she knows though, and Walker is literally the greatest most skilled soldier in the entire US army at that point, he could definitely take carter on in a fight pre-serum
While your points are logical, it's not what the writers wanted so, WHOOPS!
Not to mention, he has a biological advantage over her even without the serum. And far more training.
It’s hard to emphasize just how on point these pitch meeting recaps can be. For some films, literally the best I’ve come across for an accurate critique & recap that’s objectively true & entertaining
I liked the series, but also is kinda interesting how Sam is trying so hard to de-escalate the situation with a unredeemable terrorist. Sam:"Oh yeah, she has killed a lot of people, but she can get worse"... Dude, that's why you have to stop her, detain her, kill her not convince her, wtf. If it was possible to talk to her, then any other conflict in the MCU could be solved like that too
the frustrating part to me, and it would be brilliant if they did it on purpose, is that I honestly believe that if Steve Rogers was still Captain America he could have deescalated the situation with the flag smashers and turned them into allies. But because he was gone, Sam and Walker fucked everything up.
@@Keira_Blackstone It also REALLY makes Sam look like a racist... Would he have been so simp-athetic towards her had she been a white dude? Given his body count, I doubt it...

I think them putting Sam as Captain America but forgetting Bucky being as White Wolf in the end title credit sums up how the mcu treats Bucky-
John walker was pretty much fired for being a soldier. Not saying he was a squeaky clean innocent character but. He was just doing his job really
Marvel released Agatha's song for WandaVision, and 1hour Zemo dancing for Falcon and Winter Soldier. Now we just wait to see 1hour of Owen Wilson say "Wow" in Loki to complete the trilogy
Or Loki possessed by Owen Wilson's character and saying "wow." (Tom Hiddleston actually does a good impression of him, he could pull it off)
"Karli is going to be trying really hard to kill Sam because she is a sympathetic character"
She was literally pulling the trigger at Sam right before she was shot! At least depict some hesitation jesus christ....
Then she only apologized after being shot and realizing she failed 🙄

You know the one thing that I will never get is when falcon at the end basically says that everyone thought he couldn't do it, but like dude literally everyone was saying you could and should do it the only person telling you that you couldn't do it was you.
Remember the end scene of ep 1 when they announced Sam Walker as Captain America. Sam was like😢
@@rabbitseason7537 honestly they never should have put that in. They were trying to get the end message across it really should have been the government takes the shield away from Falcon saying its government property then announced the new "Captain America" it really would have hit way better but instead Sam just looks like a whiny twit who can't make up his own mind.
Yeah. Sam and his sister's reaction would've made so much more sense if that was the case.
I find it interesting that the flag smashers see someone as what they are, and not who they are. They want to kill walker because he’s a symbol, but he’s a legitimately good guy.
Colonel Rhodes wore the stars and stripes proudly and was loved and respected by all. Guess everyone forgot about him.
For real, they didn't take away Stark's armor from him when he brought it back to the military. Guess everyone forgot about Iron Patriot!

Sam: What you're doing is wrong senator!
Senator: Do you have any suggestions?
Sam: You need to do better senator!
Why did they put this scene in the show? "Do better?" Why didn't anyone think of that?
In _Falcon and the Winter Soldier_ the writing got the Uncharted treatment.
Minions can be killed without remorse, but the main villains or their chiefs must be talked to before a fight can happen.
Sam kills a helicopter full of criminals in the forst episode and everyone's just cool with that for some reason but when Walker kills the guy that was helping Karli kill him, now it's bad? Hmm
This is one of the reasons i really disliked this show
@@highdefinition450 you cant kill the person trying to hold you down so they can stab him 😠😡😡😡🤬
Uncharted treatment? Nathan and Sam only killed in self defense in uncharted. They try to avoid cold blooded murder.
I feel like a bunch of movies fall into this trap. I can’t think of any off of the top of my head, but it definitely is common in a lot of movies today.
So both Sharon and Carly are shot but Sam stays with Carly and completely ignores Sharon even though Sharon saved his life and they have all that history. Was that weird to anyone else?
Yes, they tried way too hard to push Karli as a sympathetic character. It didn't work, she was just an entitled brat who threatened to kill Sam, but also acted like she was betrayed by his choice to be Captain America. It was too forced, and just made the show too hard to take seriously.
@@somberstricken4424 It's like saying, be sympathetic to Bin Laden
@@girishc96 Or like saying "be sympathetic to the Capitol Rioters on Jan 6"

@Hot Rod she made herself a martyr, made implications that Steve Rogers wasn't so great. Oh yeah, she blew up innocent ppl while patting herself on the back. I tried to like her, but just found myself wishing they would show Zemo.
Bucky was very much over the whole "Winter Soldier" thing as a label for himself before all this. I was actually looking forward to seeing which name they'd choose for him and what it would reveal about the future: Captain America and the White Wolf? Captain America and Bucky? Captain America and Sergeant Barnes? It made it so obvious with that final title screen, too.
