    “How are they catching the shield?” Eric please just suspend your belief for every Marvel show/movie. For the love of god.

    Boom keeps mentioning that Wyatt Russell is Kurt Russell’s son, but his mother is also Goldie Hawn, which makes Kate Hudson his half-sister

    "Two Avengers Repair a Boat" is legitimately my favorite episode of the series. There's a level of humanity in this episode that you so rarely get in the superhero genre.

    I’ll say it Steve Rogers would’ve helped Walker and that’s why Sam nor Bucky should get the shield it should’ve actually been retired with iron man

    Taking the serum doesn’t really work like the vampire thing. Normally the most recent version of the serum made is the strongest so technically John (Captain America) has the strongest version of the serum, that combined with the military training makes him pretty op

    Before the reshoots they story had the super soldier serum connected to a virus that was spreading around the world killing people. You can see some boxes saying "vaccine" in an early episode in a truck the flag smashers were stealing. A lot of the plot was centered around this virus and the vaccines the flag smashers were trying to steal. This was supposed to come out before Wandavision to kick off phase 4 but after Covid they knew they had to change the plot significantly so a lot of this got cut up and reshot in a few months all under lockdown.

    The way that everything Isaiah said was right about a black man being Captain America cause a lot of Marvel fans never used to hate Sam till he was given the shield & all of a sudden they hate him now. There’s been a huge discourse over the fact that Steve chose him to be Captain America even though that’s who he was destined to be.

      My only problem with Sam as Captain America was that speech in the last episode that I died a little inside listening to. The struggle of black people was so gracefully handled in the rest of the series and Isaiah's speech nearly made me cry in this one episode, so I was really hoping they would do a really meaningful and well-written speech for Sam to say once he eventually takes up the mantle, but it's just so cliché I cringed all the way through.

    The shield doesn't belong to the government because it was made from vibranium gifted to Howard Stark from the Wakandans, who legally own all vibranium that comes from their country. It's why on of the Dora who had picked up the shield when they beat Walker's ass was ready to take it but then only put it down when Ayo told her to leave it. In all actuality, to the Wakandans, if its not in the hands of a Stark or Steve Rogers, they don't have any right to keep it and if they make too much of a deal about it, Wakandan can take it back. It's not expressively said in the movies but is in the comics, there are just story telling hints throughout the movies and show.

    That's why it bounces though, vibranium produces sound waves. Why in the first Avengers it made that shockwave when Thor hit it with Mjolnir. But its still a chunk of solid metal, could definitely be used as a blunt instrument.

    Something to note: The shield that is in this show is not the original shield from Phase One to Phase Three as the original was destroyed by Thanos. This shield in this show is from an alternate timeline, the main difference is the star in the center

      Which is why it bothers me that Sam thought it belonged to someone else. Like, I totally get where he's coming from, but bro, Steve most likely had that thing MADE for you in particular. It's yours. Period.

    I think the legal grey area that Allegra was talking about was that the shield was property of the Strategic Science Reserve who was the predecessor to S.H.I.E.L.D. They were an organization of the government but got dissolved because of the events in Winter Soldier. Who takes up the assets of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Were they properly assigned to other orgs like the FBI, CIA, etc? It's government property but WHERE exactly or WHO exactly IN the government? Now I could be wrong and maybe Howard Stark owns it and lent it out to the SSR or something. Could also be that Howard was or wasn't an employee. Was he an official employee, contractor, consultant etc?

      Hey, I did sorta answer this in my comment above. All vibranium that comes from Wakanda belongs to Wakanda, Howard made the shield with what was gifted to him so technically, the Wakandans can just take it back. And there are little clues all over to suggest it, like when the Dora hesitated when she took the shield after beating up Walker but Ayo told her to put it down. The government can claim since it was donated to he Smithsonian its government property but that will fall apart real quick if the Wakandans get involved.

      It's the kind of thing you can only get from a superhero television series. Films can take some quiet time and focus on character building, but as superhero movies you can never spend this long just focusing on these particular moments.

      I would have enjoyed She-Hulk if the dialogue was written better. The story is clearly meant as a more light-hearted fun, but the 'female struggle' parts are just handled very poorly. If they truly wanted to bring that issue into the show, they should have handled it gracefully like they did here with black people and not make a mockery of it. The fact that it's present in the show to the extent it is brings it down immensely. It is not a real commentary on the topic, it's over the top critique. Which would be fine, if they handled it in a way that was funny, as was clearly intended, and not in a way that makes most viewer cringe at most of the lines they make the characters say on the topic.

      Personally, I think they'll enjoy She-Hulk enough. I think they might dislike Secret Invasion though. But I'd imagine they'll still watch it.

        It's only really the ending and the terrible treatment of Hulk as character that bothered me. Also, She-Hulk herself was kinda unlikeable.

            Well, I personally didn't like the fact that she was so mean to him, when was just trying to help. He had his experiences with the hulk alter-ego so it was understandable for him to think she would struggle in same ways he did. The fact she handled it better than him, because she's more experience in controlling her emotions is a good plot point and they could have tied it well to her being a woman in a 'man's job', but she didn't need to act like that towards her cousin when all he was trying to do was to keep her safe and make her experience better than his was. They could have kept her anger at the 'men think they know better' to other situations where it applies more, than to a situation where reasonably Bruce has far more experience with the situation than she does.

            My whole problem with the show is that the main heroine keeps kicking around herself at anybody who wants to help her in any way, which would be fine if the show didn't frame it like she in the right most of the time and in the end learned nothing about how to accept help when she needs it.
