I saw the movie, no reason to quote the scene. My point still stands.

What you quoted just shows the very beginning, the genesis, and doesn't show the journey, which is what I believe Hideo Kojima was talking about. The journey.

If he cared that much about the journey, wouldn't he follow it the whole way? Why is he complaining that, since he didn't follow the story, he isn't getting the whole story?

If he doesn't want to watch all the little bits here and there, he doesn't have to. There's more than enough there to show where it was leading. If you want to see the how and why... watch the show. It's not like it's hidden away in a back room somewhere.

You would have to ask him, but I don't think it's realistic to force someone to have to see Falcon and Winter Soldier first, to understand the movie they're actually going to see at that moment.

At the very least there should be a recap, that's normally what they do in Hollywood, to bring viewers up to speed. Showing the origin story, even as a recap, would be helpful.

I literally just said you don't have to watch it to understand. Just that you'd need to watch it to get the whole story. Which, if you're interested in... you watch. If you're not, you don't. You aren't missing anything crucial to watching the movie by missing the series.

Of course, if what you want to do is complain about Marvel content being significant, it provides an excellent starting point. Which seems to at least be what you want to do.

No, not complaining. Just trying to keep the goalposts from being moved, and responding to the one and only single point that I'm trying to make, why he would say what he did, a plausable reason why.

I'm definately not astroturfing, thats for sure. :)

But wouldn't the journey of Sam Wilson be Captain America Winter Soldier, Captain America Civil War, Avengers Infinity War, & Avengers Endgame?

Sam doesn't just suddenly show up in Endgame and get the shield. In fact he gets to make a fun Winter Soldier callback in Endgame by saying "on your left".

If we want to make the argument that Falcon and the Winter Soldier should have been a film, that's a fine argument to make. I think Sam is a better defined character as a result of that series, but I don't think it's required if you want to believe he is Captain America. Looking at just the films we see Sam's journey.

Plus, if you're looking for a Sam Wilson journey... That's what Brave New World is. It tells the story of a non-super powered human, fighting in a world of super powered people.
