How to enjoy The Falcon and the Winter Soldier after WandaVision

Enjoy The Falcon and the Winter Soldier
Enjoy The Falcon and the Winter Soldier for what it is. This is the biggest part of it all. We’ll probably always compare movie and TV shows and the characters in them to each other but the fact of the matter is that it would not have been compared to WandaVision (like it already is being) if their releases weren’t so close to each other. Considering most of the characters and the stories aren’t even remotely similar, they shouldn’t be compared.
For example, Sharon Carter isn’t Monica Rambeau. They may have some things in common. Both are formidable agents as Monica was a S.W.O.R.D. agent and Sharon was with S.H.I.E.L.D. However, that may be where the similarities stop.
One thing that The Falcon and the Winter Soldier will have that WandaVision didn’t is instant gratification. There were a lot of viewers that gave up on WandaVision too early. Hopefully they got back into it. If not, they missed a series that will go down as a classic. It could also be the catalyst for Marvel Studios to be bold when it comes to how they create projects.
This series, however, this one is so recognizable as an MCU project. So, sit back, and enjoy The Falcon and the Winter Soldier because of what it is, not because of what it isn’t.
