Yeah, do it before she died. And make Peggy watch, knowing she'd keep forgetting she'd seen it and trap her in the Hell that is seeing Steve dance with Sharon.

Whenever I see people analyze relationships in movies/TV and say something like "It didn't build up enough" or "It's too soon for them to act like this" or whatever, I often wonder if they've just had completely different experiences from myself.
The idea of in a very short time becoming attracted/interested enough to feel strongly or (god forbid) kiss someone makes perfect sense to me, especially when you add the context of high-stakes danger to the mix.

Well if I were to like Cap and he liked me I would kiss him, that was my favorite scene anyway ;_;

When your partner could say "you know I really tried getting into your aunt's panties" it's icky.

Yea those guys were great, I'd love a buddy cop movie of them bickering lol
This is how the audience should react as well. Just be happy that Cap finally gets some action.

Why? Can adults not move on from past relationships? It's possible for an aunt and niece to be near each others age without time travel. As close as a sister or cousin. It's messy when you cheat or rebound. All three parties lives went in vastly different directions and one happened to be a love interest to two family members at vastly different periods in all of their lives. So what? They're adults. Get over it people.

This.
There was no relationship. Peggy moved on and had a husband and kids.
She has no claim on Steve and her character would want him to be happy considering his profound loneliness.

Crashing this plane... with no survivors!

Hayley, your character is dead, you no longer have a say on the matter.

Pretty much this.
Funny response.
He's the world's expert on waiting too long, he deserves a win. Never have circumstances shit on a guy so bad as Cap; frozen before he can go on his date, thawed out 75 years later to find out she married and now has Alzheimer's. Heartbreaking.
Him going for Sharon was basically Steve showing he has still in love with Peggy but moving on in the only way he could. It was her speech, Peggy's words, that meant a lot to him and was the first time he got to see that she was as principled as her aunt, since he didn't get to see her taking his side in TWS. It was fine, it could have used a bit more set up, but the people really hating on the though of it are ridiculous.

And you can't see the problem with this?
Their very first scene together
Cap: Hey if you want, if you want, you are welcome to use my machine. If might be cheaper than the one in the basement.
Sharon: Oh yeah, what does it cost?
Cap: Cup of coffee?
Sharon: (smiles) Thank you but I already have a load in down stairs and you really wouldn't want my scrubs in your machine. I just finished a rotation in the infectious disease ward, so...
Cap: Oh well...I'll keep my distance.
Sharon: Hopefully not too far.
I take it this was one of the 2 scenes you are referring to?

Hayley is a hell of a lot more fine than the chick playing Sharon. Just putting that out there.

I think she's a more aesthetically pleasing human than pretty much anyone in the MCU, to be honest.

She was Steve's only connection to SHIELD after Fury died. Falcon was just an ordinary military guy iirc.
He wasn't in love with her, they flirted for a couple of months and we went under the ice before they ever even had a date. She had 50 years of relationships before he came back, and 4 years of him coming to visit as a friend. He doesn't owe her time.
I want my Falcon and Bucky movie now. Everything with them was hilarious.

Kind of like finding out your dead girlfriend had a twin and using her as a substitute for the first one?
No. Time travel. Comic books.
This situation would not be able to play out in real life the way it did.
When he first met Sharon, it had been 3 years since he had kissed young Peggy, in Steve's time, but 75 years for everyone else. The whole world changed but his feelings were like it had been months.
He met Sharon not knowing they were at all related, and didn't find out for 2 years.
He wasn't in love, in love, with Peggy. They only shared a kiss and it never got to go further but he loved her because he had a deep respect for her as a person, something he also later found in Sharon. People look for qualities they find attractive, and sometimes they find those same qualities in another person. Sharon and Peggy aren't literally the same person, they look nothing alike and Sharon is from the US while Peggy is British. He's not looking for a Peggy replacement.
If I kissed a girl in elementary school, just kissed and that was it, and later met a girl after college, in another part of the country, I fell in love with and later discovered that she was that girl's sister, I don't think anyone would act like it's so weird. At best there would be a little joking about it but that's it.

No love for the Applestore guy?
Apple store guy is the modern-day confidant that Steve talks to when he needs life advice.

At least you can talk. Who are you?

Never said that, just that he obviously hasn't moved on.
I just saw the movie today and laughed my ass off when they kissed.
I'm sorry but, yeah, it's weird to shag the niece of your ex-lover/girl you flirted with, especially after the funeral. Just an awkward scene all around.

When I saw that scene, I was like, "What's Spider-Man doing right now?"
Folks need to watch the end of the first avenger, the ending says all you need to know about how he felt about Peggy. She was the first thing on his mind once he woke up. Agent Carter slams over and over that they're true loves who tragically missed each other. It was at the least bad timing since she just died; they could've used that and stopped. Just an awkward mistimed scene. Save it for infinity war.
