New Years resolutions for 10 Marvel Cinematic Universe characters

Falcon: Show everyone his worth
Sam Wilson has helped save the world on more than a few occasions. He knows how to be a hero. The issue isn’t if he has the ability to save people, it’s if the rest of the world will accept a Captain America that isn’t Steve Rogers.
Everyone thinks of Captain America and sees Steve Rogers. Well, Steve’s retired and has since passed the shield over to Sam. Now, Sam has the weight of Captain America on his shoulders. Can he be the Sentinel of Liberty? Of course. He has the will, the never say die attitude, and the honorable personality to be everything that Captain America represents. It’s just a matter of people seeing it. There’s no doubt Sam will make everyone see that by the time The Falcon and The Winter Soldier comes to an end.
Captain Marvel: Be a better hero
This seems like an almost impossible task. Carol Danvers is a hero on a galactic level. She hasn’t just saved Earth, she’s saved planets across space. Asking her to be a better hero is like asking the sun to be brighter. What’s funny is this is probably something Carol Danvers asks of herself after every mission.
Captain Marvel seems like the kind of hero that beats herself up more than her enemies. Always striving to do and be better and it’s certainly an admirable quality to have – one that proves why she’s worthy of the acclaim she’s gotten and then some. Captain Marvel will be a better hero because she wants to be. Her limits are only what she deems them to be.
