HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Courtesy of Marvel Studios / Disney The final episode of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier has arrived and… SPOILERS AHEAD… …and it starts with Karli rallying her troops after previously locking down the GRC. She comments that “They’re not going to stop, not unless we make them.” Karli puts her plan in motion and she says “It’s time” as the title card rolls. NYPD is locking down the building as Falcon speeds towards lower Manhattan. Bucky is also on scene conversing with Falcon via earpiece. Sam let’s Bucky know he’s called in backup as a mysterious watch-capped figure approaches from behind. We quickly find out it is Sharon Carter in disguise. She is using the same tech as Black Widow in a call back to Captain America: The Winter Soldier. As we’ve seen o...
Captain America 4 Officially in the Works from The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Showrunner
<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-04-24T02:15:13+00:00“>April 23, 2021 | 10:15pm ET Marvel is tossing Captain America’s shield onto the big screen once again. The Hollywood Reporter has it that The Falcon and the Winter Soldier head writer and creator Malcolm Spellman is developing Captain America 4. Spellman is co-writing the script with another member of his Disney+ series’ writer’s room, Dalan Musson. Unsurprisingly, Marvel is keeping mum on who will be carrying Cap’s shield in the film. Chris Evans wore the red, white, and blue suit through three solo Captain America films, the last being 2016’s Civil War. He finished his tenure as the hero in 2019’s Avengers: Endgame...
The Red, The White, The Black & The Truth: The Falcon and The Winter Soldier Recap, Episode 5
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Courtesy of Marvel Studios / Disney The penultimate episode of the first season, we would hope, of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier begins with John Walker running away from the carnage he just created with… SPOILERS AHEAD [embedded content] …the murder of Flag Smasher Nico. The death of Lemar clearly weighs heavy on John’s mind, as he paces around an empty warehouse rethinking the choices he made. Walker regains his conviction and composure as he senses Sam and Bucky entering the warehouse. Source: Courtesy of Marvel Studios / Disney Bucky and Sam attempt to talk Walker down, but he isn’t hearing it. In his mind, he has avenged the death of his best friend and the act was righteous. As the blood drips from the shield, they discuss the need for John to s...
The Unhinging of (Faux) Captain America: The Falcon and The Winter Soldier Recap, Episode 4
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Marvel Studios / Disney This week’s episode, no. 4 of 6, of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier opens in the past, six years ago to be exact. A one-armed Bucky, then going by his African name White Wolf, sits around a fire in a Wakandan forest, and that alone tells us we’re in for some treats. SPOILERS AHEAD. Meanwhile, Ayo begins to recite the trigger words that Zemo used to transform Bucky into the mindless killer version of the Winter Soldier. We see a montage of scenes that remind us how ruthless the Winter Soldier was when he was under HYDRA control. Buck begins to cry as he realizes that Shuri’s (Letitia Wright, Black Panther) work to remove the Winter Soldier programming from his head has succeeded. [embedded content] Fast forward to the end of last ...
Our Hate-Love-Hate Relationship with the New Captain America
<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-04-10T14:25:29+00:00“>April 10, 2021 | 10:25am ET Warning: Major spoilers for The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. He didn’t have to do anything for us to hate him. All John Walker (Wyatt Russell) had to do to earn our ill will was not be Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie). Falcon relinquished the shield Steve Rogers gave to him out of an abiding respect for his friend, a sense that what the original Captain America accomplished was unique and personal. Handing that symbol of Steve’s accomplishments over to the Smithsonian was a sign that Sam intended to honor his friend’s legacy without taking on his mantle. So, when some random new guy assumes that mantle, replete with the shield Falcon re...
Enter Zemo: The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Recap, Episode 3
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Courtesy of Marvel Studios / Disney This week’s third episode of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier begins with a few words from the Global Repatriation Council reminding us that the world is a different place, but they are here to help. So, let us not forget to reset, restore, and rebuild. SPOILERS AHEAD. Then we quickly cut to Munich where Faux Cap, Battle-token, and some GRC troops are infiltrating one of Karli’s safehouses. The occupants are clearly not thrilled with the raid and refuse to speak English to Walker when questioned. He calls for Battle-toad, his swiss army sidekick to translate, even though Steve Rogers never needed a translator. Not satisfied with the answers, Faux Cap angrily screams in disbelief at the suspect who retorts by spitting i...

Uncle Sam Is Broke?: The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Recap, Ep. 1
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Chuck Zlotnick / Marvel Studios Fresh off the heels of Wandavision, Disney+ presents The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, with aspirations of answering the question of if and how Sam carries the shield. THERE ARE SPOILERS AHEAD. When last we left Sam aka “Falcon” and Bucky aka the “Winter Soldier”, they were looking at a geriatric Captain America who had decided to stay in the past with the love of his life, Sharon Carter. As old Cap speaks to a bewildered Sam, he passes him the shield and the mantle of Captain America. Unsure if he can do as good of a job, Sam promises Cap that he will do his best, to which Cap replied, “That’s why it’s yours.” As the credits roll on Avengers: Endgame we are left wondering what new adventures are in store for Sam who has b...
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Stumbles Slightly on Takeoff: Review
The Pitch: In the wake of the blip and the events of Avengers: Endgame, Sam Wilson, aka The Falcon (Anthony Mackie), has settled into a modest life of crimefighting with his signature wingsuit. Why isn’t he the new Captain America?, eagle-eyed Endgame viewers might be asking; after all, Old Cap handed him the signature star-spangled shield the last time we saw him. Well, Sam feels uncomfortable with the weight and responsibility of the title — it feels “like someone else’s.” Meanwhile, former Winter Soldier Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) is wrestling with his own post-terrorist trauma, struggling to reintegrate into society after ninety years of cryogenically-frozen evildoing. But the two might get drawn back into each other’s orbits with the arrival of a mysterious flash mob...

In the new exclusive clip we find Sam and Bucky in a comedic exchange about “the big three” when it comes to villains: androids, aliens and wizards. After Bucky suggests that wizards like “Gandalf” don’t exist even though Doctor Strange technically qualifies as one, Sam questions how Bucky is familiar with the fictional character. “I read the Hobbit in 1937 when it first came out,” Bucky explains calmly and matter-of-fact...
