Really enjoyed that episode. The chemistry between Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan is really shining.

Looking forward to watching this tonight!

The wife really enjoyed Wandavision but wasn't that fussed on the first episode of this so tonight is make or break for whether she watches the rest with me or abandons it and I have to watch it on my own! :lol:

Wanda gets better as it goes, it's worth sticking with.

Yeah we watched all of it and she was a big fan, it's this one she's not sold on yet, tonight's episode is the decision maker for her!

Are MCU fans allowed to stop watching its output? I missed one movie (Age of Ultron) and had no idea what was happening in Civil War. Since then I only watch the quasi-standalone stuff.

That's another solid episode and next week looks to be excellent. Really liking this, they've definitely hit that Winter Soldier vibe, particularly in stuff like the palette. It's got just the right level of grit.

I'm really enjoying this, Mackie and Stan work well together and it's just the right amount of action and character bits.

The new Captain America is a dick. :lol:

He looks like Harry Kane and it's annoying me so much :lol: :fp: - I'm expecting him to defeat an enemy by backing into them while they jump for a header.

Thanks for that, now I won't be able to get that out of my head while I'm watching. :lol:

So has the new captain america been given the super soldier serum or something? The idea that a random soldier can just use the shield like Steve did is a bit far fetched otherwise

My hypothesis which is probably wrong: he's a mutant but doesn't necessarily know it (I'm not following any spoilers for new character introductions and don't want to know). I was also surprised that he was rocking the shield the way he did. There is a blue vial in the credits so obviously the serum isn't going away in this story, but whether Craptain America has had it is up for debate.

I'm getting real Dr. Faustus vibes from the psychiatrist dealing with Bucky. I know there was a version in Agents of Shield but I feel like they're sacking off the canon from that show.

Ffs going to see Harry Kane as Captain America now too. :lol:

The way they explained The Crimson Chin's (fairly odd parents) background was just the "peak human performance" Batman level type fitness as opposed to him having super soldier serum.

I'm assuming flag smashers have an inferior serum that's not permanent but requires regular dosing.

Enjoyed that a lot more than the opening episode.

Whether it's intentional or not I got a strong feeling of Homelander from The Boys during the public interview with Nu Captain America. Naturally The Boys is a pastiche of traditional superhero stories so there's going to be some similarity with a replacement Captain America being foisted on the public and whether there's some skeletons in the closet.
