One other thing I found interesting looking at the trailers again is that [episode 3 spoilers]when Wanda asks Monica who she is, Monica in the trailer has a really confused "I don't know" response, while she seems to know who she is and be trying to infiltrate Wanda's reality in the episode as is. I wonder if there was a slight change in plans at some point. Or if maybe Monica was losing herself in the new reality despite stepping in there with a specific purpose.

This was probably just misdirection in the trailer but also doing it in a way that showcases that things are Not Right.

I... think that's a pretty big stretch. I don't think I've ever seen a "Witches were in Salem," story that even implied that the village was threatened by the witches living there, or that the Puritans were not loving psychos and their trials a complete farcical sham.

Except Scooby Doo and the Witches' Ghost, and even that story was like "Ok, there was ONE evil witch, the broken clock was right one time, but they also killed a bunch of innocent people including explicitly good witches."

That being said I didn't really get that that was supposed to be Salem in the intro anyway. It was literally just "spooky woods and old-timey clothes," it could have been any witches coven anywhere and any pre-industrial post-medieval time.

At 1 minute 30 seconds it says "Salem, Massachusetts 1693"

Unrelated to the 6 pages of 'how can falcon not have monies', Yori owned and Bucky seeking atonement is a lot more compelling than I thought he would be. I knew I'd like Falcon's story, but I didn't expect Winter Soldier's to be like this.

It really does kinda suck for him right now. Cap, the only person who knows the real him from the past, dipped out and then returned just to die. T'challa is... probably dead? And was probably the person who knew him second best, since he lived in Wakanda for a couple years. Natasha is dead, who helped him (and steve) even when no one else would.


All he has left from that half of the team of 'people who supported him' are... Wanda and Sam. And they weren't exactly portrayed as close ever.

Are we sure that Cap is actually dead? I imagine Sam/Bucky/Bruce would cover up Steve's choice by saying he died somehow.

Cap is definitely hiding on the Moon.

General whoever told Sam he "did the right thing", I sorta imagine that the General and others don't actually know that Steve chose Sam as his successor, and he was saying that more as "oh you just recovered this somehow and instead of keeping it as a keepsake of your dead friend you gave it to us"

It seems to me like the route they are going with Flag Smashers is that they stole the Super Soldier juice from the Power Broker, who will be the actual bad guy for this series. Guessing Power Broker will be connected to the Global Repatriation Council (who are backing new Captain America) which will turn out to be another Hydra plot.

My theory is similar. The Power Broker gave them the super serum so he could have super soldiers, then they peaced out to go do good, and when he texted Karli about them taking something of his, he was literally talking about their enhanced selves. The Power Broker considers the flag-smashers to be his property because he made them what they are I haven't read any of the comics or watched the youtube vids on them so I may be way off base.

My biggest problem with Sam getting the shield is that he needs to be dosed with super soldier serum for it to be believable that he takes all the hits he is going to end up taking.
They literally just showed us last week what happens to even the most highly trained soldiers when doing battle against any sort of enhanced threat,

Sam with the shield and some cardio isn’t going to win many fights. Any of the enhanced people on Karli’s crew would wipe the floor with him.

This is one of the things that gets me. Steve has gone up against Bucky, Iron Man (and other Avengers), 10 dudes in an elevator, hoards of aliens, and fuckin Thanos. This Wakandan suit is gonna have to be Iron Man levels to make any of this possible for someone without the super juice.

Idk, if Sam has the wings and the thrusters I think he's fine. He uses the wings as appendages and boosts his hits/ range by using his thrust in creative ways quite well in a lot of his fights, particularly in the fight with Walker

If he has some form of wings I think he's good.

Against low level threats sure, but against something like Thanos or some other stronger-than-Super-Soldier threat any boosted hit strong enough to phase them shatters his legs/arms unless it's a whole suit to rival Iron Mans.

The 1 vs n fights also need more than wings/boost, too much is unguarded without a full suit.

I guess I just feel like being called Captain America means you go up against stronger opponents than he's solo'd as Falcon.

Disney And Sony Reach Windows Deal That Can Sling ‘Spider-Man’ To Disney+ For First Time Along With Reach Across Hulu, ABC, FX & More

https://deadline.com/2021/04/disney-sony-streaming-spider-man-disney-plus-1234741215/


Disney and Sony have reached a multi-year deal for the post-pay-1 release window, a pact that will make Spider-Man and other major franchises eligible to stream on Disney+ for the first time.

The flagship streaming service and Hulu are among many platforms covered by the agreement, which the official announcement called “unprecedented.” A host of platforms under the Disney tent are involved, including ABC, FX, Freeform. No specific plans for Disney+ have yet been finalized, but Marvel fans had been wondering when Spidey and others would appear alongside the rest of the streaming stable. For complicated legal reasons, the franchise has not been a full-fledged member of the Disney-controlled Marvel Cinematic Universe.

I don't read the comics, can someone please explain to me why when I look up Nathaniel Richards it seems like one version of him is (pretend) Doctor Doom (with no mentions of Kang) and another version is Kang and then there's other versions of him where the same name is someone different? I guess the Kang version of him is most popular? But there's also Kangs that aren't him?
