Ovechkin is just phenomenal. I don't envy your team facing up against him!

And I'm gutted that Civil War is just gonna be a hot mess. I like Sharon Carter and I'm still not over her treatment in The Winter Soldier. It would have been nice to see Agent 13 in action but anyway. With regards to romance, I have no idea how they're gonna pull it off, having had Steve more or less uninterested since Peggy (unless it's with Bucky or Sam, which we know will never happen X) )

My feeling is that I'd rather the mostly-cameo appearance than the assassination/brainwashing/miscarriage and various other indignities her relationship with Steve have foisted upon her. *hands*

I just have to keep hoping Lundqvist can hold up any leads they're lucky enough to produce. Sigh.

I think she's going to be the assassin but, of course, the movie audience won't have any reason to have any sympathy towards her. Which, again, does her character a disservice. I think I'd have been happiest if someone had the confidence to write Sharon as a prominent character without needing to have her be a love interest at all. A strong, confident woman, etc.

And I think this is going to be the season of the goalies, between Price and Lundqvist and our musical chairs-playing goalies in Chicago...

I would have loved to see her interact with Maria and Natasha as a kickass agent without any romantic entanglements, or at least for her to appear on SHIELD to build up some familiarity/sympathy (I mean, she's already on an ABC show - they could have lent her out), especially since we saw Dr. Faust on Agent Carter so it seems likely some disciple of his will be involved in the brainwashing.

Isn't Sharon one of, like, three characters that isn't confirmed for Civil War at this point?

Hey, if Evans is contracted for three Cap movies and they de-Cap this one, extra movie! (Yeah, yeah, I know it doesn't work that way.)

I haven't seen her name come up, but I've only seen people talk about Avengers and villains, not characters in other categories.

Oh, if only.
