and sam this has to be subtle
subtle got it welcome to watch
mojo and today we're counting down our
picks for the top 10 things you missed
in the falcon and the winter soldier
episode one actually crazy crazy
conspiracy theories
what's up with your gloves i um
have um poor circulation let's keep this
between me and you
for this list we're looking at the
easter eggs references and
mcu callbacks you might have missed in
this episode of the disney plus series
since we will be talking about the
episode in depth beware of
big spoilers flying your way which of
these flew under your radar
let us know in the comments below
number 10 bucky's rewritten history
paints him in a bad light
you're a civilian now with your history
the government needs to know
that you're not gonna
the first episode made the best use of
the smithsonian museum
by packing it full of great details one
of the first things we see is bucky's
updated biography
when we see his smithsonian bio and
captain america the winter soldier
it said he lost his life during the war
since childhood
bucky barnes and stephen rodgers were
inseparable
on both schoolyard and battlefield
barnes is the only howling commando to
give his life
but the updated display details bucky's
capture by hydra
and subsequent brainwashing it also
explains how his return
led to the events of civil war since the
public now knows bucky's a former hydra
agent
and a big reason why the avenger split
up they might not see him too favorably
a bad public opinion could be the main
reason he tries to keep his secret
identity and metal arm a secret
throughout the season premiere what's up
with your gloves
i um have um
poor circulation number nine the end
game plan
and caps fate are kept under wraps i do
gotta ask you though cause like online
there's just been a lot of
a lot of stuff about steve actually um
crazy crazy conspiracy theories
most marvel fans could probably recite
the end game plan by heart
the avengers had to go back in time pick
up the infinity stones and use them to
restore the lives lost in the snap
but the smithsonian display in the first
episode keeps the plan
extremely vague the most likely
explanation is that the avengers didn't
want people knowing they could travel
through time
i believe the most likely outcome will
be our collective demise not if we
strictly follow the rules of time travel
their willingness to keep their
timey-wimey shenanigans under wraps
would also explain why the display says
cap
retired after tony stark sacrificed
himself
but while the public isn't asking
questions about time travel
people are still asking questions about
steve will the avengers ever come clean
about endgames events
or will they let people believe steve is
chilling in space some people
some people they think that he's in a
secret
base on the moon looking down over us
number eight
captain america issue number one so
today we honor steve's legacy but also
we look to the future we're taking one
last trip to the smithsonian to point
out one of the best easter eggs in the
premiere episode
on the wall dedicated to captain america
we can spot his very first comic
the image of the star-spangled man
punching hitler is the same iconic cover
that was published in march 1941.
this cover is also a hilarious callback
to the time steve had to pretend to
punch an actor playing the historical
villain to raise money for the war
effort and i understand you're america's
new hope
bond sales take a 10 bump in every state
i visit including the image in the
museum was a great way for the
showrunners to pay homage to steve's mcu
and life origins wait you know what
you're doing
yeah i've knocked that adolf hitler over
200 times number seven
bat rocks on the loose again
while steve was trying to rescue
hostages in captain america the winter
soldier
he came face to foot with batroc
the villain kept the first avenger at
bay with serious kicks and fighting
skills
although batroc ultimately lost that
fight he found a way to get back to his
villainous ways for the falcon and the
winter soldier
keep going we're close if we get to the
border he's not gonna follow
he proved himself to be a threat once
again by matching sam in combat
and improvising when his kidnapping plan
went sideways
but batroc's insane skills were no match
for an avengers determination
we gotta fall back we gotta call it off
we gotta find another way
i just did since falcon didn't swoop in
to arrest him
the villain will probably kick up some
more trouble in the future
number six where the first flag smasher
crime takes place
call themselves the flag smashers was
that a new thing bad guys give
themselves bad names there's a lot worse
things than that one
after the trailers teased that the flag
smasher group was coming
we finally saw what they were capable of
in a robbery scene
so i don't know how jurisdiction works
here but i don't have to place you under
arrest
before the enhanced flag member knocked
out lieutenant torres with ease
the audience was treated to a subtle
easter egg the robbery takes place in
switzerland
in the comics carl morgenthau the first
person to become flax masher had a
father who was a swiss banker
he started committing violent acts after
his dad lost his life in a riot
setting the robbery scene here is
definitely a nod to flagsmasher's
country of origin
whether the rest of carl's backstory
will be used for the enhanced villain
from the first episode
or another character remains to be seen
so this is the leader of the flag
smashers huh
yeah real nice guy number five the sad
story behind bucky's alcohol tolerance
during bucky's date with leah she
notices he has no problem throwing back
a lot of beer
drinking what drink oh great okay
well you really get drink yeah well
this seemingly innocent moment is a sad
call back to an earlier mcu scene
after steve sees bucky fall from a train
he tries to drink to cope with his grief
but he finds that the super soldier
serum makes getting intoxicated
virtually impossible
i can't get
your drunk burns four times faster than
the average person
since bucky was injected with a similar
formula we can only assume he can't get
drunk either
this small detail may be something that
makes the former winter soldier feel a
little less human than everyone
else no matter how much he might want to
escape his past
reminders of who he was forced to become
keep appearing in his new life
this is new for me i didn't have a
moment to deal with anything you know
i had a little calm
in wakanda number four hidden details in
the credit sequence
and sam this has to be subtle
subtle got it audiences were treated to
a ton of easter eggs when the credits
rolled
during the sequence we see lines from
the sokovia accords introduced during
civil war
we also see some of the words that were
used to brainwash the winter soldier
stop the night
stop but it was the phrase power broker
watching that really gave us pause
this ominous statement appears above
mysterious blue vials
that look like super soldier serum in
the comics
a villain named power broker
experimented on humans to give them
abilities like super strength
if he's on the show he may have used
those blue vials to give people like
that enhanced flag smasher member super
powers
and if power broker is around do sam and
bucky know about him wait you don't
think he could be uh i'll circle back to
you let's keep this between me and you
number three bucky's list contains major
villains
okay okay i crossed the name off the
list of my amends yesterday
don't worry i used all your three rules
when bucky was talking about making
amends
we saw him keeping a list of names since
he wasn't courteous enough to write full
names
we'll just take a couple of wild guesses
a rostov could refer
to colonel andre rostov aka red
barbarian
in the comics this russian-born citizen
led a big organization of spies
given bucky's complex history with the
country he might have run into rostov
while he was the winter soldier
while it's unknown if the red barbarian
will appear we
know the h zemo on the list definitely
will an empire toppled by its enemies
can rise again
but one which crumbles from within
that's dead the villain infamously
framed and brainwashed bucky in civil
war
judging by how bucky made amends with
another name on his list
his reunion with zemo will probably be
violent
rule number two what was rule number two
nobody gets hurt it's a big one and why
isn't it rule number one
number two john walker's possible secret
join me in welcoming
your new captain america a shocking
scene revealed a man named
john walker was chosen to become the new
captain america but if he's anything
like his comic book counterpart
he might be hiding a dark secret during
the episode's credit sequence
walker's picture is shown with the words
manufactured hero written over his face
in one version of his origin story he
got superhuman abilities from the power
broker
since we know the power broker exists in
this universe it is completely possible
the new captain america went to the
villain to get powers
granted walker isn't the first enhanced
person to get his power
from an evil source but would the other
avengers see him favorably if they knew
the new cap got his abilities from a
supervillain
first words i said were it feels like it
belongs to someone else

number one the next falcon
vasoline lieutenant joaquin torres gets
a lot of screen time in the first
episode
throughout his debut we learned that
he's intelligent close with sam
and is willing to take risks for the
greater good his heroic
qualities air force training and
familiarity with sam
make him the perfect candidate to become
the next falcon i thought you were
supposed to be monitoring them online
i was i did but you know sometimes you
got to get your hands dirty
or a broken orbital you're lucky that's
all you got
while this may sound like a stretch
based on one episode torrez did have a
history taking on the falcon mantle in
the comics
if sam decides to become the next
captain america we somehow doubt
bucky's gonna want to throw on the wings
but torres seems ready
and willing to take flight keep an eye
on it
if anything gets serious you let me know
no doubt i'll uh
i'll track the online chatter see what
they're saying do you agree with our
picks
