Watched FATWS today with my school's Marvel club, which meant that I didn't need to shell out for D+. But I enjoyed it enough and might want to rewatch bits of it for fandom purposes that I might shell out for D+ after all.
Things I loved:
- Sam having a family and a backstory and complicated feelings about being back after 5 years!
- Bucky's life being exactly as sad and heartbreaking as fandom generally makes it out to be! (crying a thousand tears at Bucky having no friends, only professional relationships or people that he's trying to make amends to.) Also: sleeping on the floor in his living room -- wow, that's, like, sadder than the mattress in Romania
- Yes Sam -- turns out that the shield can't be idle -- if you won't pick it up, the government will find some rando who's WORSE
- I'm SO GLAD that they're actually exploring the ramifications of people returning from the Blip, and not just in a "wow, that guy's hit his growth spurt" way that Spiderman Far From Home did.
- Also interesting that now they have no funding and Sam's resorting to being a contractor for the air force?? Like, I get that Tony used to fund them, but... what's Pepper doing?
- Forever sad about Steve being fridged, so I'll just pretend that he de-serumed and is just chilling somewhere (or is somewhere in the multiverse). But SO HAPPY to see Sam and Bucky get fleshed out!
