Discussion The scrutiny and double standards is exactly why Sam gives back the shield in "Falcon and The Winter Soldier"

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/disney-marvel-captain-america-brave-new-world-politics-1236122701/

Bucky's line "I don't think we realized what it actually meant for a black man to hold the shield" was his sign that he understood the greater scrutiny, racism and double standards that Sam would encounter. Same as the shit Mackie's facing now.

EDIT: Anyone who criticizes FATWS however justly for its faults, can we not give Marvel some credit for hearing our demands and giving us an hourlong loop of Zemo dancing within DAYS of the episode? I mean c'mon that's fan service.

All this over what is likely to be a mediocre movie. Good lord.

Why does this sub want this movie to fail so badly?
