Sabastian Stan and Anthony Mackie actually became very good friends through the movie and this show. Check out the interviews they did together. They even kept up with one another through the pandemic.
I can't believe you worked out who the Power Broker was right away. I've not seen anyone else figure it out that early! Also, fun fact - Wyatt Russell, the guy who plays John Walker, is the son of Kurt Russell, Ego from Guardians Of The Galaxy 2.
I love this series. It was less comic book and more spy thriller with comic book elements. Very grounded and, to your point, Sam and Bucky do work well on screen.
People gave this show (and especially the finale) a lot of crap for landing in a “centrist” political place, but personally I was really impressed with how maturely and explicitly it tackled those politics. Really really dig this one.
Girl, I can't get enough of your reactions! I have so much fun watching you watch all these series/movies, it's like I'm actually watching them for the first time. Love ya! 😘
I really love this series it's top 3 out of the Marvel Disney plus shows for me. They couldn't flesh out the full story of the Flag Smashers due to this being filmed during the pandemic that's my only critic but the chemistry between Anthony and Sebastian made this so damn enjoyable
I'm glad you appreciated the relationship between Sam and Bucky! They really are one of the BEST duos and you'd probably enjoy watching the interview moments between Anthony and Sebastian because they are good friends and HILARIOUS together in interviews. And I agree this show did SO much for Sam's character! He was good in the movies and even without the show I was ready for him to be Captain America, but this show fleshed him out and what the realities of being Captain America means to him. So many people think that serum and the face is what makes someone Captain America, but just like most of these Marvel heroes, the name is a mantel, what matters is the values and the heart within. Bucky's had a bit more in the movies, but even this show took his development even further. And I LOVE the bond he's formed with Sam and his family! Definitely my favorite MCU show even though there are other shows that are TECHNICALLY better. The emotion in this one just spoke to me most. The first movie with Sam as Captain America comes next year and I can't wait!
Mackie and Stan were often paired together for press for movies like Civil War and Infinity War. They also did a bunch of Comic conventions and stuff together, and it was clear early on they had chemistry. That chemistry is what essentially inspired them to make this show. As far as John Walker, I don't think he's crazy. He is a good person and a decorated soldier. I think the issue is that unlike Cap, he gets the serum after already seeing so much. He says to Lemar "Three badges of excellence to make sure I never forget the worst day of my life. We both know that the things that we had to do in Afghanistan to be awarded those medals felt a long way from being right." I think he suffers from PTSD. The government truly screwed him over. If that kill happens in a warehouse instead of in public, he would be up there getting another medal. Instead, they took away all of his benefits and rank, which most certainly isn't a good thing.
Carl Lumbly is so good! He's been popping up in Mike Flanagan's projects of late, most recently Fall of the House of Usher and looking forward to seeing him in Captain America: Brave New World next year :)
I agree that the show short changed Bucky. He deserved more time dedicated to his journey. Sebastian did incredible work with what he got (any small glimpse of that Wakanda scene, and I'm ready to tear up again), but it was clear that the writer was more focused on Sam.
My favorite Marvel series to date. Addressing systemic racism, and the plight of refugees, this series is top-tier. Sam is and will always be the natural inheritor to the mantle of Captain America and I am looking forward to the next Captain America movie next year.
Rocket raccoon has suffered worse than Bucky which you will see in the guardians of the Galaxy vol 3 film after you watch the holiday special presentation.
i dont get the hate John Walker aka three time medal or honor recipient aka the greatest ACTUAL solider to ever live in the mcu aka a REAL soldier who actully earned the rank of CAPTAIN aka a soldier who didnt need PED'S to become a hero dude was a beast. who is steve without steroids i know the answer is hes a NOBODY. I need someone to tell me why are yall mad John killed a TERRORIST but when Steve led sam, wanda and natasha ILLEGALLY into Nigeria a sovereign nation which to the MURDER of innocent nigerian civilians, injuring many others and the destruction of peoples buildings what did steve do after oh thats right he went home without a care in the world he called it a win with no remorse. When T'Chaka called him out on worldwide tv he turned it off a told wanda she shoiuldnt feel bad for the innocents she murdered and injured but yall got a problem with the death of a TERRORIST make it make sense if that was Osama bin laden would people be mad?
im team Sharon if she was on John's team he would have looked out for her she was also on the run like steve's side of the avengers after civil war considering the fact that stolen valor steve isnt a real soldier he has no comprehension of LEAVE NO MAN BEHIND cuz he left her out their in the cold for years without help John would have looked out for her cuz hes a real soldeir
lets talk about the fanbase's hypocrisy of bucky and John unlike John. bucky unlike John is an actual SERIAL MASS MURDERER of INNOCENT people will defend him by saying he was in his right mind but when John snaps after seeing his brother Lemar murdered in front of him people claim that terrorist is innocent but those same people forget that he was holding John down so Karli can kill John so please tell me how is he innocent people ill wait? Also the show tried to be brave pushing race issues but when they had the chance to truly go there they didnt. When bucky missed his mandatory court appointed session he was arrested and was going to be locked up for life instead of locking up this white guy they let him go. John used his government title of Captain America to tell the federal government to release him and what did that get him from the characters and fanbase further disrespect but if STOLEN VALOR steve did it people would cheer him make it make sense. cap 4 is going to suck.

This one is in my top five! So grounded and REAL! 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾

"Steve had a plan."
Jumping out of an airplane without a parachute is not a plan, Bucky.

I'm surprised Michelle's **Big Brain** didn't immediately notice Bucky's old arm in the flashback. But I knew she would eventually get there. 😉

Bucky got invited to the cookout.

Thoroughly enjoyed your reaction to this series.
"diet fuckin' Steve Rogers" ROFL
I thought of him as Walmart Captain America.
if you ever want to learn more about Isaiah Bradley i'd recommend the comic run called Red, White and Black. its so good and one of my favorites(:
Rocket raccoon has suffered worse than Bucky which you will see in the guardians of the Galaxy vol 3 film after you watch the holiday special presentation.
I wouldn't necessarily say worse. They just showed it more explicitly. I would put them on a similar level.
