Cap gets to punch things the old-fashioned way, Falcon proves the value of a truly good sidekick, and — in the span of five minutes on the deck of the Insight — the entire MCU quietly reboots. Pete, Matthew, and Kyle break down minutes 101 through 105 of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, from the fighty-fighty cross-cutting chaos to Natasha's data dump that ends SHIELD as we knew it. Plus a deep detour into a lost Disney gem, a debate over whether Alexander Pierce actually believes his own pitch, and Bucky doing Bucky.
Links & Notes
- MCU: The Reign of Marvel Studios — the behind-the-scenes history the crew cites for the Agents of SHIELDstories, by Joanna Robinson, Dave Gonzales, and Gavin Edwards. (Swap in your own affiliate tag on this link to support the show.)
