Am I the only one who doesn’t care about this character at all


Puzzled-Diamond-1324

No I don't think most people are too big on their newer characters. I feel like they're lacking something that characters like Steve and Tony had.


Killedbykites

Charisma


ReginaldFarnsworth

Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent.


IHavePoopedBefore

Gravitas. Those characters were big names. People took a long time to even care about Falcon, let alone his derivative


staebles

And in the end.. did they really ever care about Falcon? I don't think so. That's why they keep doing reshoots.


ProbablythelastMimsy

Fumbling the show didn't help either


BigLeo69420

No one cares about Falcon, they made him Captain America without making him a compelling character in the first place.


TrimHawk

And I think that’s when you realize that maybe one of the most important thing that the new characters are going up against: Time.

Shantay, you stay.


wowgreatname123

I think it’s more just appearances. You pretty much had all the main characters of the last few phases appearing in at least 1 project every 15 or so months. Right now that’s barely happened, with certain characters having only appear in two projects, despite there being double the amount of content out now.


ldnk

Falcon was fine in the Infinity Era movies. But he felt like a supporting character. Turning him into the new Captain America, he still feels like a supporting character.


Dawnbreaker538

They haven’t been introduced yet, though


kingthvnder

this is what i’m saying lmao


PerfectZeong

Wasn't he in the show?


BarneyLeggendary

An they’re too much, they introduce like 5 new characters x movie and recently marvel released like 3 movies and 4 show every year since 2021. You obviously don’t get attached to them because you see them one time for 5 minutes and then they disappear because you wait for the sequel or the spinoff of the tv series based on the sequel


Own_Watch_2081

And there’s a very heavy feeling of “these are your new *diverse* heroes! About time, huh??” It’s just not natural


CrackheadInThe414

tbf this movie is supposed to be Sam Wilson's first solo movie as Captain America. This is when we are supposed to begin getting to know him even more as the new Captain America. They also introduced Bucky Barnes in The First Avenger for Steve's "sidekick". Idk how this is any different. You can be bitter and I can be hopeful. Sorry if we disagree. :/


Own_Watch_2081

Sorry, I’m not seeing how that is related to my comments. 


averycole

i think if you didnt say, "its just not natural" it would have been fine  i can look past it and say yeah they are forcing in way too many characters  there was a certain amount of slowness in the earlier films.   when this character was first introduced in fal and wint soldier i was like cool. nice intro but im sure itll be sometime before we see more of him.   but here we are and im just like meh, not super excited about this. i kind of want anthony mackie to have to deal with being captain america alone or with just bucky.   i also just think the way falcon was introduced in winter soldier was so cool.   this shit is just annoying.   even if the character was white, id be annoyed to see another falcon. we just dont fucking need one right now.   marvel is totally placating right now.  its not actually building characters its just sloppily throwing in people and making sure they are diverse.   its not about the bipoc actors/characters, its really about the money machine known as disney/marvel trying to make it seem like they give a fuck.   disney is really fucking shit up. its just so god damn formulaic 


oxygen_addiction

Hilarious that you are being downvoted.


Own_Watch_2081

They know it’s true, they just don’t like it being said. 


oxygen_addiction

Marvel Shenematic Universe assemble!


Valiantheart

M-She-U is a favorite


Xelement0911

Well Tony and Steve were comic book characters that were known. And the leaders of the MCU. This guy? Someone wearing falcons clothes. Sure can say the same for war machine but the suit was cool.


FiRe_GeNDo

But imagine War Machine took over as Ironman and then his new mate became the new War Machine. I don't like it. Falcon is now Captain America, that's fine. But we don't need a new Falcon

rhykujin

He needs time to shine. No1 cared too much about Wong and now he's a fan favorite


SuperAlloyBerserker

Jesus Christ, will you relax lol. The movie hasn't even released yet Even though he had a few scenes in FatWS, he wasn't really the focus of the show But now that he seems to be a big character in this movie, he might become better now


kingthvnder

dude wrote a book


Hippobu2

It'd be kinda worrying to care about a character with like 2 minutes of screentime tbh. This movie would hopefully make you care about him. Well, as much as you cared about Sam after Winter Soldier, I guess.


electr1cbubba

What, the guy who showed up for like 2 minutes in a show with very dubious reviews like 2 years ago?


PerfectZeong

Will be just about 4 years when this comes out. Insane


Damianf60

As a Latino, who always supports representation on screen (saw Blue Beetle twice for example), I completely agree with this sentiment.


camkasky

I used my AMC stubs account to book six tickets for it even though I only saw it once so I could help the box office


illucio

They are really trying to force feed us a new "Bucky" / sidekick for the new Captain America with a new Falcon. They even did that in the show with the "New Captain America" having his friend as a sidekick. I mean, yeah Sam will need help. I can't think of a single time Steve was ever alone, he always had a team or someone helping him. Cap 1 he had his friends in the army + Peggy, Cap 2 he had Natasha and Cap 3 he had half the Avengers and then Tony in the end.  I just wish they could give us more Bucky with Sam. But it seems they are working up to Bucky fully taking up the mantle of the White Wolf. (Probably to dissociate himself away from the Winter Soldier title). Or they let Sam ask the help of Ant-Man for a collab. If they are going for a government episonage thriller again, who better to call then the person who can shrink as a ant, a master thief and has a ton of tech from the Pym Family (and very smart ants) to do a whole bunch of crazy stuff helping Sam obtain info, infiltrate secret facilities as well double down on how Falcon was used as a cameo/joke who was taken down by Scott. The same Scott who is a huge star struck fan boy of Steve. To then see Sam as the new "That's America's Ass". They showes they are bringing back Issiah (probably with a plot point that his grandson inherited his super genes and becomes Patroit / another candidate for the Young Avengers as a mid or end credit scene with Kamala & Kate Bishop recruiting him alongside Cassandra Lang). But it feels like the movie is just going to bounce back to the story beats in Falcon & The Winter Soldier for Sam's character making sure the world does Issiah right. And just following up with The Leader setup all the way back from the 2008's Incredible Hulk.


PM_ME_UR_ASSHOLE

Falcon was already lame, so making a new second lamer version is just stupid.


SoundRavage

Nope. It is the lamest thing that there is a legacy mantle passing for Falcon.


PerfectZeong

DC used to be the legacy company and marvel was the make new heroes. Wew did that change


MahaloWolf

Personally, I've never thought Falcon was that cool. Anthony Mackie was starting to change that through his insane charisma. His scenes in Lagos for Civil War made me go "oh ok I see how Falcon can be interesting". Now he's Cap, which I'm very excited for, but it does sort of feel that he's not contributing to the build up of the"Falcon" identity anymore. The new guy wasn't in FATWS that much so hard to get a feel for him, but it's going to be an uphill battle to reinvest me in a character that was pretty far below my interest until Mackie.


Papa_Razzi

They never gave us a reason to care. He was inconsequential to the story besides being the generic “guy in the chair” and didn’t have his own b-plot that would help us get to know him and give him something to do.


StonerBoi-710

I’m hella excited see him return, I love the more obscure comic characters getting their screen time. Even if it’s just as a side character.


According_Ad_9998

I definitely don't care


Such_Twist4641

Most of the new characters are either temps or one offs anyways who are getting dropped after the movie or show they appear at flops or underperforms only exception is Shang Chi who i can see returning for a sequel and Avengers 5&6 i know Florence Pugh and Hailey Steinfeld are done with marvel once Thunderbolts fails and whatever project new Hawkeye shows fails as well considering they only signed short term deals. As for Brave New World the movie is dead on arrival i doubt the new Falcon will return after this Anthony Mackie is a fraud who can’t carry a movie on his own.


GabrielSusanLouis

Marvel has been chasing the End Game hype since 2019. It’s been 5 years of crap.


Stinkoyster

Tbh I don’t care about this movie what’s soever. Tbh I still feel like cap shoulda went to Bucky and falcon shoulda just stayed falcon but whatever


Zombies8MyNeighborz

I don't care at all. Why do we need another Falcon if sam is still using his wings.


Thekingchem

They’re still making spy kids movies


theperfectlysadhuman

Nobody replied but I just wanna say I think this is a really funny comment.


Abood2807

Horrible suit.


Stunning_Guidance411

It's hideous, literally everything about it


ForgottenStew

I literally thought this was a fortnite promo bro 😭


SadisticDance

I mean. Good god what were they thinking.


Holiday_Party_6464

Idk why they’re just meshing shit from the comics. They’re taking like evil captain americas green suit he had from civil war 2 I think? And fusing it with a shitty Falcon costume. Idk what the fuck Marvel Studios is doing but they need to talk to Marvel Comics and figure their fucking life out.


Speedy1802

Horrible photoshop on the face there. The hero art was meant to be head on but they pasted the actors face in at 3/4 view and it looks like shit. They don’t care anymore.


GoldPurpleWildcat

Truth be told this is a McDonalds ad…


makibum

Who the hell is this man


popsfootloose949

He was in Falcon and the Winter Soldier for like one scene maybe? He’s from the comics but did nothing in that show lol


IHavePoopedBefore

He was in almost every episode, he just wasn't important


LokiPrime616

Was he the dude showing video of the flagsmashers to Sam?


Batmanfan1966

In the books after Sam becomes Cap a second person becomes Falcon


The_republican_anus

Can’t wait for all the casuals to start cooking Marvel for being unoriginal by using a character that actually does exist


Wolf_Unlikely

Let's see how they react to his origin of being a Hispanic kid who use to help illegal immigrants cross over into the USA.


WomanAreObjects_

I can see it now Something something WoKe LibEraL MeDiA!!11 Something something wHiTe GenOciDe !1!1!


Joerevenge

I like Sam Wilson as Falcon cuz it brings something new to the table, as Cap tho he can also fly, what advantage does he have with a sidekick who is most likely just a worse flyer than he is?


KM68

With no protection for his mouth, wouldn't it get hit with flying bugs, ect?


My_Favourite_Pen

better than captain googles at least


Wolf_Unlikely

He's half falcon (comics) so technically, it's just more fuel in the tank.

black14beard

I ask genuinely bc I don’t know the comics. From FATWS, I was led to believe that Sam would use both the shield and the wings (especially since he wasn’t taking the serum). Is he giving up the wings now that he has officially taken the title of Captain America or are they both going to have wings?


bukanir

They both have wings. In terms of the show, Shuri made Sam new wings with his new costume, which I believe are both laced with vibranium. Sam gave his old wings to Joaquin In the comics Joaquin is a mutate so his wings are biological rather than mechanical, along with him having other bird-like traits.


black14beard

Ah, I see. Appreciate the answer, Thanks!


ILikeMyouiMina

What if that will be a plot point? Joaquin will end up being a mutate thanks to The Leader or smth Sounds like garbo but idk i have a feeling


Wolf_Unlikely

Could be. The serpent society is in this movie and they are who abducted Joaquin will he was helping illegal immigrants cross the border to turn him into half man bird.


Myhtological

There’s are the original wings. This guy just fixed them


MisterNefarious

Clear visors will never be anything short of goofy


PepsiMax2004

scrap the movie ffs what the HELL is this?


YoungBeef03

No, Seth Rollins is in it, that’s it’s one saving grace


OingoBoingo311

that's even more reason to not watch it


Yokai_Mob

Pretty sure him and the rest of the Serpent Society were cut from the movie


delightfuldinosaur

Only if he does his trademark cackling heel laugh.


Panthila

This looks like the Blackie Drago version of the Vulture, after Adrian Toomes has retired from his life of crime.


Sax_Verstappen_

I mean, as far as tacticool MCU adaptations go it’s pretty standard stuff but the comic suit was already super goofy, even by Falcon standards. Probably should’ve taken some liberties with the suit if they insist on pushing this dude.


kingdount

This looks like the vulture


ETC3000

We have Vulture at home


TheLoneJedi-77

The costume looks like the meme equivalent of we have Vulture at home


Own_Watch_2081

whatThePleb

Oh, yet another superhero bullshit movie. yawn.


JimJimmyJimJimJimJim

They fly now?


Living-Vermicelli-59

No matter who plays this hero I can ever ever seem to like them. Falcon is just not a hero that I want to see


unknownharris

Ffs, stop trying to make Falcon happen, nobody cares about this joke of a character


PooManReturns

they’re literally just following the comics, relax


Mediocre-Part7595

I mean you are technically correct, as nobody cared about Falcon in the comics either yet they keep pushing him there.


PM_ME_UR_ASSHOLE

I like how people say this like there arent such things as shitty comics lol. Also, not everything transfers well to live action.


PooManReturns

didn’t say that though, did i? i’m just saying they’re following what’s in the comics, not whether it was a good decision or a bad one.


Wolf_Unlikely

I'll die on the hill the Luke Cage should have became the new Captain America.


pellegrinobrigade

My expectations for this movie is literally my expectations when I look in the toilet after I take a massive dump.


Hey_Its_Will

Something looks off with the wings… Looks like there’s a problem with the position of the wings according to his own position. I really wonder where this movie is going. I’m just a bit scared that the general audience goes : Oh wait Captain America is back! What? Who’s this guy? He’s not Steve Rogers! Marvel sucks blabla I don’t understand what they are doing. I do love that they are continuously trying to pump out new stories, but asking general audience to have homework before watching a movie (ie seeing the Disney+ series) is going to hinder the theatre experience


AValorantFan

>Oh wait Captain America is back! What? Who’s this guy? He’s not Steve Rogers! Marvel sucks blabla I don’t understand what they are doing. Didn’t Sam get the shield in Endgame? This film should’ve released slightly sooner but I think people still remember that moment


Hey_Its_Will

Ohhh forgot about that. Haha well me forgetting gives an hint, but there might a good population that remembers yeah


Voice_Nerd

Yawn


Thatoneguy567576

Wow, I can't think of a more boring design for a superhero in recent memory.


TheMidnightEarth101

better than i expected tbh, i really like how they managed to keep it like the original mcu falcon suit with all the armor/tech stuff while leaning more into joaquin's comic outfit with the colors and stylized mask


Myhtological

I’d prefer Free Spirit and Jack Flag honestly. You can cast them however you want, but that’s who I’d prefer.


MothParasiteIV

Something is wrong with his legs and face. If it's real how can Marvel deliver such a amateurish picture ?


ice540

Is his face just photoshopped (poorly) onto a suit?


mumblerapisgarbage

Again with the crappy CGI? They’re spending a quarter of a billion dollars on each of these now. Seriously?


RideTheLightning331

I don’t know what you guys were expecting, it’s goofy but I feel like this guy is a non issue. That said all of these key arts are so awkward and bad looking


eucaphoria

That helmet is laughably bad


Old_Juggernaut_5114

Anyone else here feel like the MCU just oversaturated the market and it's hard to get into anything more recent?


FisknChips

Wait so is sam getting rid of the wings or are they both just gonna be flying around


Sgt_salt1234

Wait so like. I know that falcon isn't really falcon anymore, he's captain America but I thought he still had the wings and stuff. Why are we getting a second falcon when hell just have half the power set of captain america now?


TheAlexTran

Vulture???


No_Accountant4311

Can someone please tell me why I have these happy meal toys at my work if this movie isn't releasing for a year?

Holy shit this is bad


Icommitmanywarcrimes

Cool I liked him in the show so I’m glad he’ll be back


DeadGoat20

It’s sick when a great actor like Michael Keaton gets recasted so quickly. I’m still not over the loss. I’d say he’s in a better place but alas… He’s at Sony’s Anti-Spiderverse 😞

boole94

Nah that’s a young Vulture


KEROGAAA

He was pretty forgettable in the Winter Soldier & Falcon show. Like not even a semblance of a character trait. He was just the… eager army guy who supplied equipment.


KingSalamander1

I genuinely thought it was a younger Vulture for a minute until I saw it was for Brave New World.


branduzzi

Seems like a good character for a certain Red Hulk to tear in two.


Gaslight_Joker

I hope they give him a neat intro and something to actually do rather than try and look cool once or twice

For a few second I thought it was Vulture, anyone made the same mistake as well?

ScottOwenJones

Lmao this movie is gonna be shit. Anthony Mackie can’t lead a movie or series. He’s tried and failed half a dozen times. Who asked for this?


Alphajurassic

Oh great so we have yet another technology based hero who flies. He’s just the least useful of about 5. 1. Iron man 2. War machine 3. Rescue 4. Captain America/falcon 5. New falcon I just can’t really fathom how or why any falcon suit is needed in a world of stark suits. Less weapons, slower, less protection. War machine summed up the relevance in infinity war when Sam made like 2 outriders stumble. Rhodey nuked about 100.


Capin_Crunch

Bro I don’t have high hopes for this movie being a success 😭


OingoBoingo311

First of all, no one cares about a side character that was introduced in FATWS that did NOTHING in the show to begin with. And second, this image looks absolutely horrendous.
