Falcon and winter solider

[MoonSong]

I can generally enjoy the first season-and-a-half of any given Arrowverse show, before they drown in angst. These days I just don't bother starting them.

I don't know I still find Legends of Tomorrow very fun and with only some mandatory angst at two thirds of the season.

I have been going back over everything because I was sure one of the Flag Smashers simply vanished from the show, and I found it mentioned that one of them, Deigo, was actually captured/arrested, but I do not remember that. Does anyone else remember seeing that on the show? Because if that is accurate, that means there is still one super soldier not killed off. Is this just a plot hole that Marvel missed or will he return in some way in a future show or movie?

Diego was the helicopter pilot who Sam dumped in the River when her was rescuing the GRC members. At the end Sam is asked to go and recover Diego from the river, but we dont actually see it - we can assume that Sam pulled Diego out and handed him over to the authorities.

We might presume that Diego will be sent to the Raft and may be recruited to a future team

Or he could have been delivered to the same car that exploded, right? Didn't Sam go to get him before the car left?

No, that was Kovich flying the helicopter. Kovich and the other three were put on the truck that exploded. Diego seemed to disappear from the show an episode or two ago, which is why I am having trouble remembering him being captured.

I will say it doesn't make any sense for Zemo to be in the raft, he's awesome but he's just a good operative, he's not packing super powers or anything.

The first time we saw the Raft, it was housing Sam, Clint, and Scott Lang. None of them have superpowers. In fact, the only superpowered person we've seen imprisoned there on-screen is Wanda, and I think it's fair to say that they're lucky they tried that on one of her off days.

I enjoyed it. A solid ending. They handled the matter of race in a way that worked and suited the story.

Val is totally working to set up the Thunderbolts, right? Has to be.

My only complaint would involve Sharon. The heel turn on her part seems a bit much. But, I saw someone else online mention a possible explanation, and which i now think is spot on: she’s a skrull.

I believe I heard that they’ve already announced a new Cap movie. Of course. I think I almost prefer this kind of series now.

Sharon isn’t a skrull. If she were, she wouldn’t have needed to use that mesh face-mask she disguised herself with (the kind Natasha used in Winter Soldier).

Unless that was a ploy so we think she isnt a Skrull

The ending was alright. Falcon's new costume is a bit much as the new Captain America, but I like that he keeps his Falcon wings as well. He'll make for a great next Cap.

The social commentary was way too heavy handed though. Sam was one step away from wagging his finger at the camera and saying "Don't do drugs kids". Man, did that lecture go on and on. Plus, it is a bit rich having Captain America tell other countries to try and understand the motives of terrorists. You kind of weaken your message when you're obviously talking about America's foreign policy, but are too chicken to directly call out America itself.

The action was on point in this final episode, much most of it was way too dark to make out what was happening. It was like the final episode of Game of Thrones all over again. Why do they keep doing this? Surely they have an art director who's job it is specifically to check the final composition?

The final scene with the Power Broker is ominous, but not the big shocking reveal I was hoping for.

She did need it - in order to reveal herself without giving away that she was a skrull.
