Ep. # 99 - ALL the Captain Americas! (including Brave New World)

Hello Loyal Film Fans, we’re busting out, shields first, with our 99th episode and wanted to do something both timely and topical so we’re going to look at Marvel’s Captain America films replete with the newly released Captain America Brave New World. 

I’m your host Gino Caputi and I am joined by Joe Field, author, hypnotherapist and comic book store royalty, named after his Uncle Joe who owns Flying Colors Comics in Concord California.  https://www.flyingcolorscomics.com/

Welcome back Joe!

Before we celebrate the red white and blue Avenger, Here’s the overall synopses of all the films. 

The Captain America story centers around two men, Stever Rogers and his friend Sam Wilson. In Captain America: The First Avenger, it’s 1940, World War II is in full swing and frail but determined Steve Rogers undergoes an experiment that transforms him into an American super-soldier, leading him to battle Hydra and its leader, Red Skull, before sacrificing himself in the Arctic.  Frozen for 70 years, Steve miraculously wakes up in the 21st Century. In The Winter Soldier Steve makes friends with fellow soldier Sam Wilson while struggling to adjust to the modern world. The pair, aided by the Avengers Black Widow, uncover a Hydra conspiracy within S.H.I.E.L.D. while facing the Winter Soldier who turns out to be his once loyal childhood friend, Bucky Barnes. In Civil War Steve turns against Tony Stark as the Avengers fracture over government oversight, forcing him and Sam to go on the run to protect Bucky. Now in Brave New World, Steve’s mantle is taken up by Sam, who faces political and global challenges while proving himself as the new Captain America.

So do any of these films uphold the stars and stripes?
