It felt so strange to me, as it seemed like Bucky was the more natural choice to pick up the mantle. Might've been more interesting too

Stronger personal ties to Steve, with connections to his entire journey and villains, with similar abilities. Falcon feels like just some dude without the same buildup or connection to Captain America.

I haven't read the comics at all so this is just impressions from the films.

At the end of the day they are stories targeted mostly at children or at least need to be fairly sanitized for kids. I don't see how they could make a multiple murderer and killer of iron mans parents the new captain America in the MCU.

The Russian puppet is more believable as a member of Congress.

Fair enough. I'd personally find it more interesting, and the baggage he'd have to deal with more directly tied to Steve's story. He'd also have the best idea of "what would Steve do" and struggling to meet that ideal while also struggling with a tortured past and forging a new path is worth exploring, with most of it already set up.

I certainly think they could have gone that route. I think Falcon and Winter Soldier does a good job exploring that idea. I do think handing it to Sam is interesting from a non-super soldier standpoint.
