Weekend Films: Captain America: Brave New World and Sisterhood, Inc.

I didn't get to see Captain America: Brave New World when it was released last week, so I'm going to see it today. From the comic books to the movies and the show, I've been a big Sam Wilson fan which is why I'm so happy that he got be Captain America on screen. I can't wait to see this movie, it has Captain America trying to save the day to stop a huge global problem. So far, I have managed to avoid spoilers. Another movie I'm going to watch later today is the Hallmark movie Sisterhood, Inc.. It follows as a big sister who is trying to makeover her younger sister's life. And while doing that, she unexpectedly finds love.

I can't wait to watch both movies, they just seem so fun and interesting.

Most Memorable Scene: Highway Fight Scene (Captain America: The Winter Soldier)

I absolutely love Captain America: The Winter Soldier. It's been forever since I've seen this movie and I can't believe it's been 10 years since it was released in theatres on April 4, 2014. It's just crazy how time just flies by. But you know what, it still holds up as an amazing movie. Anyway, this is the perfect spy/espionage thriller. It follows as Captain America, Nick Fury, Black Widow and Falcon uncovering a terrifying secret that Hydra was in control of S.H.I.E.L.D. and as well as having infiltrated the US government.

Now for this scene, the highway scene was so unexpected because they were totally ambushed by Hydra. And Hydra was going to do whatever it took to take them out. It didn't matter if there were people around they were nothing more than casualties. Which is sad but not unexpected. Despite Captain America, Black Widow and Falcon being out numbered and dealing with a lot fire power, that didn't stop them. Which unfortunately they were temporarily captured by Hydra but it didn't last long thanks to Maria Hill. I'm really going to have re-watch this movie.

Throwback Thursday: Scarlet Witch and Vision vs Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive (Avengers: Infinity War)

I remember when I saw Avengers: Infinity War in the theatre and seeing Scarlet Witch and Vision being so caught off guard and not being able to really go up against Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive. But it was like a total pin drop when Captain America, Falcon and Black Widow showed up to save them. I think it was a combination of seeing Wanda and Vision losing so terribly to the shock of seeing who showed up to help them. Avengers: Infinity War is still one of my favorite movies, it was just so fantastic.

Most Memorable Scene: Ant-Man vs Falcon (Ant-Man movie)

I'm taking a little cleaning break (see my Book Girl Thoughts post) to post one of my favorite scenes of Ant-Man vs. Falcon from the first Ant-Man movie. I feel like the Ant-Man movies are so underrated, they're fun to watch and have a good sci-fi story with a the right amount of humor and action.

Rumor: Sharon Carter to be a Love Interest to Sam Wilson or Bucky Barnes in "The Falcon and The Winter Solder"

There's a rumor going around that Sharon Carter will be either Sam Wilson or Bucky Barnes' love interest in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier TV Series. It should be noted that this has not been confirmed by Disney and I hope this is nothing more than a terrible rumor because Sharon deserves more than being a love interest to one of Steve Rogers best friends. Plus, that would be so weird especially since the last time all three saw each other was when Sharon and Steve kissed in a parking lot.

I feel like the MCU ruined so many comic book canon relationships and the writers went out of their way to pair characters up randomly for instance Natasha Romanov with Bruce Banner instead of Nat being with Bucky. Steve ending up with Peggy Carter instead of with Sharon.

From watching various trailers, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier doesn't seem like a show that needs a romance. I see a lot of fans saying that the MCU has yet to have a LGBTQ relationship with main characters and feel like Sam and Bucky could be that couple. As much as I think that would be so cool and awesome, I highly doubt Marvel is going to let that happen. So odds are there is no romance in this show and if it is, hopefully it's Sharon getting a love interest that's not Sam or Bucky. Since the MCU ruined her relationship with Steve, she deserves a romance that's not a reminder of her former love.

Most Memorable Scene: Captain America, Black Panther, Bucky Barnes and Falcon chase scene from Captain America: Civil War

I found this chase scene from Captain America: Civil War to be memorable because it's so unintentionally funny. From Bucky Barnes, Black Panther and Captain America running at top speed through a tunnel full of moving cars to Cap carjacking a police car with Black Panther catching a ride. Cap running into police cars trying to get rid of his unexpected passenger.

All of this in order to try to catch up with Bucky who is running for his life that is until he stole a motorcycle. And not to mention Falcon trying to get rid of Black Panther, coupled with an explosion, Cap running from yet another car rolling over then tackling the Black Panther which culminated into an awkward arrest for all four.

This entire chase scene is just so ridiculous but in a good and funny way. I really never get tired of seeing it. I know this wasn't meant to be funny but I couldn't help laughing at all the ridiculous things they were all doing.

New Trailer for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier

The more I see of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier the more excited I am to see it. This new trailer is so fantastic. I can't get over Sam and Bucky going to as fans have called it "couples therapy", because these two certainly bicker enough like an old married couple. Hopefully the therapy will work out for them and they can sort out whatever issues they're having. This might be an unpopular opinion but I think Sam and Bucky have better chemistry than Steve and Bucky. And I like that ever since Captain America: Civil War, Sam and Bucky became a fan favorite duo which I'm sure factored into them getting this TV series.

Something I'm so happy to see in this trailer is Sharon Carter. I'm still annoyed by how Sharon was treated in the MCU, she should have been in both Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. And she also should have still been Steve Rogers' love interest, it made no sense to write Steve back to being fixated on Peggy Carter. He was over her and he should have been moving forward with his life and not looking backwards. Anyway, I'm so happy that Sharon was shown in the trailer and totally kicking butt.

Trailers for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier and Loki

Yesterday, Disney announced a lot of new shows and movies and it felt like it was just too much. Do we really need that many Star Wars shows? And I'm saying that as one of the biggest Star Wars fan. I guess Disney's philosophy is More is More.

I'll see how I feel once the hype dies down on all these show but for now there are only two new shows I'm really interested in seeing The Falcon and The Winter Soldier and Loki and they had already been announced awhile ago. After looking at the trailers, both shows look amazing. Loki looks weird and zany and pure madness while The Falcon and The Winter Soldier looks like it's going to be action packed espionage. And I really can't wait to watch both shows.

I love how their suits reflect their personalities.

Poster: Falcon (Captain America: The Winter Soldier)

I like this Falcon poster for Captain America: The Winter Soldier because Sam Wilson could have stuck to an easy life after getting out of the army but he made the decision to help his new friend Steve Rogers a.k.a. Captain America. He had no idea what he could possibly be going up against and without a second thought he geared up and went into a war against Hydra. Like Steve, he was extremely committed to doing the right thing. What else can you ask for in a hero.

If Marvel is ever in need of an idea for a movie here's a suggestion, make a Falcon and Winter Soldier movie. They worked together quite a lot in the comics and it would be great to give them their own movie.

I know it would never happen but I would love to see Sam Wilson take up the mantle of Captain America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I think it would be great.
