I believe we can do better

Sam Wilson having zero patience for crappy nicknames.

Sarah Wilson + smitten in 1.05 Truth

Just our boy Sam Wilson out here actually making Baron Helmut-friggin-Zemo reconsider his life choices lol. Obviously, it doesn't quite stick, but still quite impressive.

Even after everything Zemo did, after how vehemently Sam was against working with him at first... He's willing to listen to him, hear what he has to say, and then try to reason with him.

Because, just as we see with Karli, Sam doesn't automatically see the bad. Sam genuinely believes there is good in people, and he is willing to latch onto that good and try to work with it. It's what makes him such an interesting and beautiful character, and why he's Captain America.

That moment you try to get your bestie to love the thing you love, and you're scandalized when they don't immediately become obsessed with it.

"I'm looking for a guy that shrinks."

I don't think we give Sam Wilson enough credit for how sexy he is in this scene in Ant-man.

Honestly, that man should always wear that leather jacket and those sunglasses LOL.

Sam & Sarah Wilson, just being a realistic image of siblings.

These two are one of my favorite things from TFATWS. We knew so little about Sam during his time in the movies. To find out he has this entire family and life down south we know nothing about was such a special little gift. Him with the boys, him with Sarah -- it's all so adorable. But the relationship between him and Sarah is so great. You can tell they're very close, and their banter is fantastic. If she isn't in Captain America 4, I'll riot.

Sam being the embodiment of "I can say whatever I want about him, but if you do it we're gonna have a problem."

One of the most important moments in the show. <3

"Join me in welcoming your new Captain America."

This scene deserves some mad recognition. You can feel Sam's tension growing. The horrible realization of what he's watching unfold on the screen. He looks so upset, almost sick, while listening to the broadcast. Anthony knocked this out of the ballpark. So did Adepero Oduye also, but that's a post for another day. But his eyes. </3 Oof.

Me, arriving at the cinema to watch Captain America 4: One to see Sam Wilson, my baby, be his own hero in his own movie. He is my captain America and I am so proud of him, I can’t believe this day has come

"I'm asking you to do it again."

Throwback to that time Bucky gave Sam puppy dog eyes until he gave in.

Bucky Barnes: #1 Redwing hater

Am I the only one who thinks Sam probably used Redwing a lot when trying to track Bucky down between CATWS and CACW, and that's why Bucky hates him so much? LOL

Sam and Bucky passive-aggressively saving/helping each other and snarking, "you're welcome" is one of my favorite things lol.
