for the first time what's going on in that cyborg brain of yours you don't want to know
Welcome back everyone this is going to be my new falcon and winter soldier episode 2 trailer video
there's a whole bunch of easter eggs and a whole bunch of new characters that we didn't see during
episode 1 so we'll break it all down if you're brand new to the channel i'm doing videos for
all the episodes be sure to subscribe to get everything there's a whole bunch of new marvel
disney plus stuff happening this year loki is actually going to be the next series after this
but this trailer gives us way more baron zemo he wasn't really featured during episode one because
they were mostly reintroducing falcon and winter soldier after the events of avengers end game
and just teasing the flag smashers group a little kind of explaining what's going on in the world
a few months after avengers end game now that all the blip people have come back and they've kind
of gotten used to being back so everyone's back to their old ways so to speak and that's sort of the
problem that they're dealing with with the flag smashers we want to go back to the way things were
before the blip i actually laughed a little when they said that like wait a minute they want to go
back to that post-apocalyptic environment baron's emo must be gaslighting the hell out of them to
make them think that that was better we get a much longer version of baron zemo's speech about why he
thinks superhero should not exist the danger of superheroes it's sort of a twist on the avengers
age of ultron captain america civil war speech like the vision speech where he talks about our
very existence invites challenge challenge incites conflict and then things escalate from there
but they juxtapose baron's emo's speech with falcon and winter soldiers speeches about why
symbols superheroes are important and the flag smashers speech aaron kellyman's speech about
replacing old symbols with new ones and just to be clear they did confirm that her character is
a gender-bent version of the flag smasher character from the comics but they're also
using the flag smasher name is the name of their group so it's sort of like a spartacus situation
like i am spartacus no i am spartacus they're using it as both her name and the name of the
group at the same time but i don't think that anybody on the tv show itself within the context
of the story is going to call her flag smasher they're just going to call her kari her name or
the crazy girl that's running around causing all this havoc but some of this footage actually makes
it seem like baron zemo might share some scenes with the flag smashers like he's in a very similar
looking church here building is the flag smashers so he might be speaking to them and they look like
they're all just kind of huddled together like something terrible has happened and they're trying
to deal with it so early theory because it's baron zemo we're talking about he might be trying to
gaslight them or manipulate them in some way into creating all this chaos around the world allowing
him to fulfill his ultimate goal of getting rid of superheroes that's a very general plan
that's pretty basic so i'm assuming we'll get the full villain monologue eventually the same way he
went full villain monologue during captain america civil war daniel bruhl explained what's different
about zemo after avengers end game like what's changed since the events of captain america civil
war when they locked him up in prison so at the end of captain america civil war he chilled out
just a little bit but originally his whole thing was just trying to get revenge on the avengers
revenger style blaming them for the death of his family in sokovia during the events of avengers
age of ultron he blamed them for creating that situation in the first place even though
technically ultron was the villain he actually said that they were responsible the avengers
were responsible through their very nature their existence leading to the rise of ultron in iron
man directly being responsible for the creation of ultron sharing a little bit more of the blame
but that leading to the battle that destroyed sokovia even though they did manage to save
most of the city minus a quicksilver or two they kind of addressed this during Wandavision
too with the scarlet witch flashback scenes to her childhood showing you the stark tech bomb
that killed their parents before she used her hex magic to create a probability spell stopping the
bomb from exploding before it could also kill her in quicksilver little baby scarlet witch thrown
spells all over the place like it's her job then they joined baron von strucker's hydra program
with the infinity stone the mine stone as a way to fight back so it's kind of the same basic idea
with baron zemo and the flag smashers his plan for getting revenge was just a little more insidious
in the case of captain america civil war break the avengers up destroy the team but with a twist
and he was kind of successful the way they left him in captain america civil war but according to
daniel bruhl he just festered in prison until the events of avengers infinity war he also
revealed that zemo was snapped then blipped back and that sort of reignited his previous sentiment
about the avengers and superheroes in general luxemo blames them for the events of the snap
like vision speech i said earlier our very existence invites challenge from villains villains
like thanos the funny thing about that though zemo wants to get rid of the avengers you're the reason
this happened thanos would have snapped half the universe even if the avengers never existed but
now after avengers end game he's like i was right the first time but i didn't take things far enough
and because he is a villain is much more insidious than your traditional marvel villains like thanos
it seems like he's trying to work from the shadows through the flag smashers but the flag smashers
themselves aren't an inherently evil group the way they kind of explain it during episode one is that
it's turned into this big message board thing this big grassroots movement and they're all kind of
being gaslit by zemo even though aaron kellyman's character and some of these others seem like they
have the super soldier serum and they're the real flag smashers they're kind of turning it into a
big grassroots online movement but they themselves don't start out being evil characters they're just
on the down and out after avengers end game and things are just really bad for them and zemo
takes advantage of that the same way that scarlet witch isn't necessarily an evil character more of
an anti-hero but both agatha harkness and tyler hayward spent that whole series trying to gaslight
her in her moment of weakness so that they could take something from her take advantage of her
agatha harkness wanted to take her chaos magic her power outright like give me all of your power
and tyler hayward kind of wanted her chaos magic power too but for a slightly different reason
just to power up the version of white vision so early theory about aaron kellyman's flag smasher
character after the falcon and winter soldier series is over they keep her around for future
thunderbolts or young avengers projects like she comes back in the future disney plus series or
marvel movies and they just give her a new comic book name or a new costume like she's not an evil
character she's kind of an anti-hero here but why would you power someone up so much and try to make
the audience sympathize with their cause over the course of the series then throw them in prison not
to bring them back again like you have to imagine thunderbolt ross taking advantage of that look you
have a particular set of skills you have a measure of superpowers like a little bit of superpowers
so we'll cut some time off your sentence because you committed so many crimes while you were part
of the flag smashers if you join my special team we get way more footage of falcon training at his
home in louisiana winter soldiers showing up to help train him with the shield and prep for
their missions to investigate the flag smashers the footage of the highway fight scene with
them hijacking the shipment might be from later episodes i don't know if this happens in episode 2
so soon in the series a lot of this footage could be from later episodes but i like that
winter soldier twist here where it seems like he's jumping onto the back of this truck thinking that
he's rescuing her like hey you okay and she just smiles and kicks him right out the back baron
zemo sounds like he's talking to falcon and winter soldier in this later voice over when he's telling
them she's going to keep escalating things like it won't stop until she completes her goal and it's
not totally clear what they plan to do like what baron zemo wants them to do but it sounds like
some global terror threat then the falcon kind of explains his superpower like i don't actually have
super powers my superpower is the belief that we can do better i know a lot of people are wondering
if they are turning him into a version of captain america the next version of captain america
will they also give him a version of the super soldier serum like winter soldier has like the
flag smashers seem like they have i don't know if they have any plans to upgrade him in that way i
do think he's going to get a new costume and some new gear but i actually don't think that he needs
the super soldier serum like the whole concept of his character is that he's the regular guy
trying to hold his own amongst traditionally super powered people on the avengers hawkeye and black
widow are other really good examples of that like just regular people with particular sets of skills
and when you think about it falcon is kind of doing the same thing that iron man is doing on the
avengers like iron man does not have superpowers like thor he uses his technology to give him an
edge in battle falcon also uses tech they kind of confirmed during episode 1 that the wingsuit and
the drone his red wing drone are stark tech and speaking of iron man upgrading captain america's
technology they kind of did that back during age of ultron like you remember captain america had
the special magnets on the back of the shield instead of just using the traditional harness
but we also get a ton of new scenes of winter soldier meeting falcon's family just funny
moments his sister and her kids they did have a joke previously about him not flirting with his
sister like don't you dare flirt with my sister we talk about how this series is kind of like
marvel's lethal weapon rigs and murtaugh that's actually a lethal weapon joke except during lethal
weapon it was his daughter that he was flirting with we haven't seen them go to madrapur yet that
footage could also be from later in the series since they haven't even had their big team-up
training montage yet but the episodes are so much longer than the Wandavision episodes and there are
fewer episodes overall so they are blowing through the plot way faster the whole thing with us agent
captain america john walker here is that the government probably learns about the flag smashers
as well or the flag smashers do something to steal something from the united states military and they
roll in new captain america as the wrecking crew and he's probably just going to try and outright
kill all their group including aaron kellyman's character and it seems like falcon and winter
soldier are trying to reason with them in order to stop things from escalating further like the whole
idea they don't want to turn aaron kellyman's character into a new martyr and make the
flagsmasher movement escalate because it is this big online movement if you don't recognize them
people are making all these jokes about how he looks like the character from up like the old man
in a captain america costume just because of the way his face looks underneath that mask it's wyatt
russell who's playing the character playing the john walker us agent character he's kurt russell's
son in real life ego the living planet so funny marvel connection there they will get into his
backstory in the next few episodes and how he came to be the next captain america as they continue to
explain the weapons plus program in greater detail but if you spotted any of the big easter eggs
