@neanderthalsnavel Eh, that’s not the problem with #CaptainAmericaBraveNewWorld. The real problem with that movie is that #SamWilson just does the easy thing with zero consequences. In #CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger, #SteveRogers makes the difficult decision to down the plane and forgo a life with #SharonCarter. In #CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier, he chooses to go against #SHIELD despite the fact that it has federal backing, because what they are doing is wrong. In #CaptainAmericaCivilWar, he decides to go against not just the #USA but other #Avengers, many of whom are his close friends, because they are opposing the freedom of others who wish to do good in the world.

In #CaptainAmericaBraveNewWorld, the toughest decision #SamWilson has before him is to fight the #POTUS, but it’s like, either that or watch the #USA burn to the ground, and #ThunderboltRoss didn’t indicate at all that he wouldn’t have wanted him to fight #RedHulk if he had to.

I wasn’t interested—and, for the most part, still am not—in the concept of a new Captain America, especially since we’re not getting a traditionally styled character taking up the mantle. That said, I’m glad that *Brave New World*, featuring Falcon wielding Captain America’s shield, is doing so well in theaters, albeit for justifiably petty reasons related to recent executive orders regarding DEI.

That being said, and acknowledging that I haven't seen the movie nor fully delved into Falcon’s enhancements, I find it difficult to reconcile the visual of the Red Hulk’s attempted strike being halted merely by Falcon’s upholding of the shield.

This is certainly not an invitation for well-meaning comic historians to chime in. I’m simply sharing what’s on my mind—something to revisit at a later point once I’ve actually seen the movie and can reassess whether my initial discomfort with the whole thing still holds.

(The Red Hulk is General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross)

I really liked in this, and he gives Cap a lightheartedness that Steve Rogers never had. The scenes between him and , whether fight scene or dialogue scene, are incredible, and same with Mackie and .

has the signature pants that are ripped to shreds everywhere else except in the hip and crotch area.

There are two cameos, one of which is very welcome and makes me think the circumstances of which will continue on into a next film. /3
