Falcon and The Winter Soldier

[MyFloorIsLava]

Spoiler-free thread to discuss the upcoming Marvel series on Disney+.

I wasn't excited about this but the trailer has made me excited. Unlike WandaVision, the trailer and promo art make it fairly obvious (I think) who one of the Big Bads will be. Also looks like it will be quite funny, carrying on the energy that Sam and Bucky had in Captain America Civil War.

Watched this morning. Enjoyed every moment

We watched this morning as both of us are on annual leave. Enjoyed it very much but I didn’t feel the chemistry between the two leads as much as the writing was telling me I should IYSWIM?

poorbuthappy I am on s5 of Agents of Shield! It's hard because I have no one to talk about it with.
It's so funny sometimes, some of Coulson's lines really make me laugh

I liked it..love the starring moment but Sam's not coming across as likeable as usual...hopefully that will change.
Interesting ending though...

Sam's not coming across as likeable as usual

He's always been a miserable beggar.

I enjoyed it more than last weeks. The new Cap is a dick and his mate will probably die😄

Not feeling it yet for the new capt, maybe its early days.

Nope. Not feeling this at all. And I really don’t like Poundland Capt America.

I hope it improves, because right now I just can’t get over my dislike of them (although I did like Bucky’s slip up in therapy)

I like the chemistry between San & Bucky & the back & forth.
Felt this episode was a bit slower, more plot reveal happening but them WandaVision was very slow to start too.
Loved the therapy session. Fake Captain America is awful, but that's the point I guess. He's not Steve Rogers & he can't be him. His sidekick is also very annoying.

“Poundland Captain America” 🤣🤣
Sums him up perfectly. If anyone watched ‘The Boys’ he also gives me Homelander vibes. Like he may not be as wholesome as he appears. Probably not quite as bad as Homelander though 😬
Sam said “we can’t just beat him up and take the sheild” (or something similar). Errr yes that’s exactly what you should do!

Like he may not be as wholesome as he appears

Yeah, he's a smug git too.

[quote Figmentofimagination]Not a spoiler, just a little video from Xbox that links to Endgame. Made me chuckle.

[/quote] So you recognise the sales assistant with Falcon?

Winter Soldier film, he was the tech sales assistant who asked Cap and Black Widow if they needed any assistance when they were in the tech shop hiding from Hydra trying to load a memory stick that Nick Fury had given Cap!

I love how they do this, throw little clues in!

I also get serious Homelander vibes from Poundland Captain America. Barf! But also - do we honestly believe that he isn't on some sort of super soldier serum? Not buying it.

Poundland Capt America 🤣🤣🤣

I didn't like him either. Was fine at first but now becoming more arrogant.

Didn't like this episode as much. Bit all over the place.

@SakuraEdenSwan1 no, i didn't recognise him from that. I just found it funny he was the guy who Thor ranted at over the Xbox headset.

He definitely comes across like a super soldier with all the shield throwing stuff. Most likely military want the serum back to make more.

Bit superficial but I don't thinks he's very attractive so even more likely to be a baddie 😄

I am loving how things are playing out with this and looking forward to the next episode.

If anyone is interested there is the Screen Crush Easter Eggs piece. You’ll have to skip the annoying paid for adverts in the middle but the rest is interesting if you’re a bit of a geek like me.

The guy playing Cap #2 is Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell’s son.

Ohhhh I can see that now.
Goldie Hawn hasn’t done any Marvel has she. But Kurt Russell was Ego in GOTG2.

@RightOnTheEdge we find him highly entertaining and I will admit a small crush. 😬 he was also married to Jennifer Grey which I found astonishing as I just can not see them together at all.

poorbuthappy I love him, he's so cute 😍

Coulson is fucking lush, by far my biggest Marvel crush. I miss Shield, was gutted when it got axed

I said exactly the same to my son about the new captain America reminding me of homelander 😆.

I do think there is something dodgy about him.

Thought this week's episode was much better. Poundland Cap's character is getting worse each episode.

Poundland Cap is a total tosser.

I didn't love this week's episode. Thought it was a bit all over the place. I did like Zemo, thought he was charming in a sociopathic way. When Bucky said "she's awful now" about Sharon, he said exactly what I was thinking.

Enjoyed Zemos little dance
