Oh Eric I really feel bad for The disappointment you had in falcon and the Winter soldier but that last part about Disney is 100% what a narcissistic studio

[@jge8144]

Looking at the series a second time, with a semi-critical eye, I'm surprised that no one had broadcasted Sam's decision to give up Cap's shield but showed Walker's interview of how he felt about being the new Captain America. There were reporters there, for crying out loud! Also, I concur with you, Eric, that it isn't realistic that everyone accepted Walker so easily. Not to mention, most likely reporters would've been swarming Sam, asking how does he feel about this. And yeah, Sam's internal conflict was poorly set up, especially given that the series is ignoring the fact that Sam willfully and, with confidence, took the shield as he promised, so it gets aggravating when he tries to defend his decision. Heck in Endgame, even Bucky, showing his approval, encouraged Sam to try on the shield when Cap told him to.

For some reason, Winter Soldier has captivated my attention more throughout the show and the movies as compared to any other character apart from the leads. For some reason, I was expecting Steve to give that shield to Bucky. Ofcourse it couldn't be, at the same time it would have introduced a lot of chaos for everybody involved.

[@jacindaellison3363]

@@Irose_YTBE I mean, if they wanted it to be about race, THAT should've been Sam's reason for not taking the shield in the first place. In episode 1, Sam could be Captain America and stormed a drug dealing operation but got into a fight with a white cop who was abusing one of the black dealers-was trying to stop him from killing him. The white cop, getting his butt handed to him, tattles on Sam and then the army comes in and says that "hey Sam, we understand what you're feeling, but the ppl need to know that ppl like you need to have a level head." This could've been Sam's beginning of him having an actual internal conflict: he wants to honor the promise to Steve but also feels conflicted about the way his ppl are being mishandled but can't do anything about it. He and Bucky, who is pissed that he gave up thr shield, could have honest talks about how Sam, being an Avenger, still faces racial profiling, something he struggled with growing up.

Probably as a way to retcon things but... "Not a great plan"- Tony Stark And it gets aggravating when Sam keeps defending his decision of rejecting the shield. I also found him unfair with his dismissal of Walker. He was the one who took the shield when you rejected it, Sam. I can understand why Bucky would be cold to John, but I couldn't care less if Sam was.

[@sonicdihedgehog1]

Okay, your ending of your review was EXTREMELY Biased as hell. The only reason people didn't bring up those problems with the series as you did was because They Were Very Clear throughout the show and the context was there throughout the entire series. Stuff with Sam giving up the Shield was basically obvious why he gave the thing up. John Never turned into a villain. He was just a psychologically damaged man with some troubled in his life. Abd when he disobeyed abd order and went crazy for his friend, he went rogue abd try to take action on his own hands. Not only that, but, later in, he wanted to make what's right for his title and country abd just try to settle the score with Carlie and her Flag Smashers. He wasn't Really turning into a villain. The guy had just had some troubled abd an unstable mind. But, really, the guy is just a good guy at in the end and is pretty clear that he would be used by people as it was pretty clear that this Valentina person is just using the guy. Making him into a pawn. Also, the only reason Sam decided to take the costume was because he wanted to do this for Isaiah after listening to his story and how they just tarnished his legacy. So, he wanted to honor that name for him abd try to prove to him abd the world that the world is ready for a Black Guy as Captain America. Also, the humor was fine. Nothing bad here. Even grown people can do such immature things at times. And I Really don't see how the thing being set inside the airplane would be any better as this was suppose to be a psychological therapy between the two in the room scene. It was suppose to develop and explore that sort of aspect since they have showcased that sort of aspect for the characters. They were Suppose to act a bit immature here. It's called having a flaw. But, then again, you seem to take most of the humor outside if the MCU too seriously and out of context. Even when they really Aren't shown to be over the top like some humor.

I think the first scene shows why Sam didn't take it. He sees Steve as a symbol one that he can't live up to, that no one can and he sees Steve AS Captain America. He's Falcon, not Cap kind of like what Happy said to Peter in Far From Home about being the next Iron Man. And finally now that Steve's gone, Captain America is gone. It's time to move on, a similar thing is said by Karli in Episode 4. As for why the people are so accepting of Walker and why the government gave Walker the Shield in the first place, well let's think about what the shows and so far movies (or I guess just movie since Black Widow only has it's final scene in the present post Snap). After the events of Endgame the world was left in a pretty confused place, one probably just as chaotic as when the Snap first happened. People are coming back 5 years later to a completely different world as is said in the show constantly. Family members are older and in different places in thier lives, people are struggling finnincially like Sam was in the show, etc while for the people that were on earth the whole time they had to go through the initial shock together. As such the world became more united, borders were open, countries were helping eachother, etc. Because of this conflicted world the government probably wanted a figure the people could look up to for reasurance and security, Captain America. And that's why the people are so accepting of him, Walker isn't just a random nobody they took from the street. He's a war hero who has won medals and proved himself to not only the government but the people at large. TL;DR Sam sees Cap as a symbol he will never live up to, the government is trying to mend the state of the world and Walker is a public war hero.

Hey there Eric, so after telling what I was able to find of the scrapped Wanda Vision screenplays I started to think of what screen plays were scrapped of Falcon and the Winter Soldiers and to make a long story short I found a couple of them that sounded good: 1. The different ending: In this screen play that I found it was all mostly the same for the first four episodes but it is when we got to the fifth and sixth that we got something going different. When Sam went to Isaiah giving him the reason to not take the shield and he had his old Falcon suit that he gave to his war buddy in episode 5. But as this went on the final battle would have been the same but the difference is that this was going to set up Zemo to be the villian in the next season but it got scrapped (more on that later). Sam also did not become that Captain America himself in the season but by the end of it he was going to start the training which would have taken him into the next season where he becomes the new Captain America at the end of the second season but it got scrapped and I will explain why at the end because all three of these got scrapped for the same reason all together. 2. Walker becoming the main Villian Now this one I actually thought could become the one but I am glad they did not go with this one just because it would have been to long. Again the first four episodes were the same but the fifth episode would have seen Walker winning the fight that he had with Sam and Bucky and he would be on the run and the rest of the season would have been hunting him down and the things with Zemo would have also been the same as the final version of the show where he goes to the raft. But then in the end they would find Walker and take the shield from him and but because they were focused on going after him the flag smashers would have been the villians again for the second season (again I am glad that they did not go with this one because I did not want to see more of these guys). Then the final thing would have had Sam again training with the shield as he would have became the new Captain America by the end of the second season. 3. The entire season Now just like WandaVision this screen pla could have been way better then anything we got. So it weekends with Sam who is trying to take up the shield but then out of nowhere Thunderbolt Ross and a bunch of other people say that he cannot have the shield due to the events of civil War and him being and him being a criminal at one point. They take the shield and give it to John Walker and this would be one of the only times that we see Red Hulk himself in this entire show. Then Bucky would have gone to Sam and ask why he gave up the shield and it would have made way more sense as to why he gave it up. We then cut to Zemo breaking out of jail and causing trouble for the heros and then Walker comes and tries to put Zemo away but he is unsuccessful and Zemo was actually the one to kill his friend Battle Star which would have seen Walker gone rogue and try to kill Zemobut he would be unsuccessful because of Falcon and the Winter Soldier, putting Zemo in the raft were we see Ross one more time and then Walker would have a hatred towards Sam and Bucky making him the villian for the second season. I honestly think that this was the one they should have went with instead of what they currently got. Now let me tell you why this was scrapped. (it's not as bad as the reason for WandaVision but I still think that it's a very stupid reason) The reason that none of these were chosen is because the final product was going to set up the Thunderbolt's which is Marvel's version of the Suicide Squad. The Team members have the names of Red Hulk, Us agent, Zemo, new Black Widow and more. Now I get why they did this but it honestly feels so forced and I think that they should honestly to do something like what John Wick and Friday the 13th and Elm street did. Meaning that they are setting this event up but we did not know until the very end, and it's something I wish they did more, but we got what we got and there is no going back and if you're wonder yes Eric #MarvelNeedsToChange 😤😤😤

I'm rewatching this series, and it's getting annoying that Sam keeps justifying his decision of rejecting the shield.

@@jge8144 it made no sense why he gave it up without an explanation as to why

[@jge8144]

@@og_fnafboy101 In a way, they did after looking back at the episode-pretty much him feeling unworthy in that "tell, don't show" speech at the beginning of E1. The problems that arose are: 1) the show deliberately leaves out Sam willingly and confidently taking the sheild and telling Cap that he'll do his best, as if it wants us to forget about that fact but makes Sam act out of character. 2) if we go with the whole "I feel unworthy of X" thing, we needed to be shown this struggle before he made that decision to relinquish that sheild, not an infodumped speech. 3) if Cap's alive, he'd been disappointed or saddened-or both- by the fact that his friend and successor gave up that sheild CARTER risked her neck out to get. There are probably more but I noticed a few times that The Falcon and The Winter Soldier in E1 and E2, I believe, tells important things but won't show them, which makes it hard for me to care about the characters at times. It even perturbed me that Sam had the utter nerve to treat John Walker as an outsider because he took the shield Falcon had cowardly given up. They really did screw up Sam with this nonsense, and I'm on E4. So far Bucky, Battle Star, and Walker are the besr characters. I could care less about Sam.

Soo ahh first things first here... It took you several episodes to fully understand why Sam didn't want to embrace the shield? Maybe it's because your white ( apologies if you're not btw) that you didn't immediately realize this but yeah sure Steve gave Sam the shield and yeah he accepted it but you also failed to realize that jumping into a role like that seemingly unannounced to the public would definitely be nerve racking. Look at it this way Sam is an Avenger and is already an established hero in his own right.….him just deciding to dawn the shield and stripes would automatically become a hot topic with everyone not to mention controversial (like in the comics) and would essentially make every little thing he does be deemed “political" even if the majority of people accepted him, the man just wanted to stay in his comfort zoom for a little while, I mean he just got back from being dusted is this really that hard to comprehend? also you along with everyone else keep saying he gave up the shield as if he handed it to someone else?? No he placed it in a museum to be displayed with Steve's suit, who's to say he wouldn't have come back for it when he was ready? So yeah that all i really wanted to say because while i was listening to your commentary and heard you saying Sam didn't have a good reason constantly annoyed me. Plus i don't think you complimented a single thing Sam did throughout this entire video👀

[@EricCarter12]

Your reasons sound good. But it's just a shame that the show did not TELL US that. It didn't even explain that to us visually. You don't need to be black to understand taking up the mantle from someone else. (BTW I'm Asian) Everyone can understand and relate to that in their own way. It also goes against what Falcon said to Captain America at the end of Endgame. "Thank you, I'll do my best". This came right after Cap told him that it's his. This just felt like bad MCU writing that has trickled down to the majority of Phase 4 and 5. With even Nick Fury's depression making no sense in Secret Invasion. In my view, its just bad storytelling. And it seems that a lot of people are calling Marvel out for that now.

[@Potato_Sama]

I agree with almost everything in this review. It boggles my mind that the flagsmashers got so much sympathy from Sam after threatening his family. And walker ended up being the best part of the show What I’m not on board with is that they set him up to be a villain and then redeemed him. He made wrong decisions and showed anger problems. But he seemed to me like a flawed person trying to do right more than a premeditated super villain. You could make a case that Tony has done more evil than walker. I feel like they set him up to be a flawed hero not a villain.

Wow I pretty much agree with almost everything you brought up here. Especially your suggestion that they could have better established Falcons reasons early on as to why he gives up the shield 🤔. If they really wanted to drive home the race element (which they didn't need too since was never a vital part of Falcon's character beforehand but nevertheless), what they could have done is what you suggested. Have the government claim dubious ownership over the shield only for them to give it to John Walker so it can be made clear that they don't want the image of a black Captain America. In addition, had Sam brought this up earlier as a concern of his and then it later gets mirrored with his conversation with Isaiah Bradley then it would establish all that we need to know. Sidenote, I think that's also the reason why Sam referred to Isaiah as a black super soldier, was because the idea that there was another super soldier that happened to be black and could have been another Captain America is to inform Sam taking on the mantle later on, but again this motive needed to be established early on. Lastly, Many people have suggested that this could have easily been a movie, but it's clear Disney plus wanted to stretch it out to a show just so they could keep viewers around on the platform 🤔.

Great video, Eric! I honestly feel the MCU has plummeted after Endgame. WandaVision and Falcon and Winter Soldier could’ve been something great, but they felt like wasted potential instead. Loki so far is pretty good tho.
