I wonder if they'll do this only for titles kids tend to watch? Or maybe they are putting up special "sanitized" versions for younger children based on parental controls? If that is the case, then I think it is actually a smart move.

I went into my unrestricted account and it’s changed there as well.
Thanks for doing that. I thought about checking myself but then realized it would involve me having to revisit TFATWS and thought nah, lol.
HAHAHAHAHA I was thinking that too. I did not want to watch that again....
I hope they only do this based on account restrictions though while leaving it untouched for the unrestricted accounts. I'd actually welcome that.
Then they should never let their kids watch The First Avenger because that movie is brutal, people getting diced up by propellors into bloody mist.
But the tiniest bit of blood next to a dead guy is too much.

Every generation seems to get softer and softer. A bunch of little snowflakes. And the parents are the worst. Its like they forgot the things they saw/did as a kid, or somehow feel they were traumatized by it. Most parents are clueless as to what their kids are doing/ being subject to. Between the internet and kids having smart phones at such an early age, they've been subject to waay worse than seeing blood on a TV show. All it takes is that one friend or kid at school.....
My kids are pretty innocent today compared to what I was like/did at their age and even younger. At least I think they are.
I can only image what I would've done/seen if the internet existed back then.

Well then it's less about each generation getting softer and more about society's increasing attempts to moderate as a response to today's technologies making it so easy for kids to see things we think they shouldn't be seeing at the young ages they are now seeing them.
I didn't see hardcore porn till I was 15 at least and probably didn't have regular access to it myself till I was over 20 - they're probably streaming it age 7 now.

They censored this but not Moon Knight?! There’s way more blood in the first episode of that than these scenes
Heh me and most of my classmates saw our first porn films at age 7 too (stolen betamax tapes from our dads' stashes) and we've had our first pin-ups around that age too.
But yeah I think overall society is trying to moderate stuff even more in an attempt to "protect" children. More so in western countries as of late it seems. It's not even just on media, but there are some strange legislature coming out of places like the USA as well.
This is why streaming sucks. Also, people have gone back and watched this again? Why?!

Would have been better to censor that cringe-inducing speech, so that kids don't learn to be someone who can clear a room just by opening their mouths. That was absolute brutal violence against my brain and GI tract and nobody cares.
Good to know tho there's no way I'd watch that limp, overly messaged, Bucky-nerfing, Sam Wilson the boring financial failure, character annihilating effort again anyway.
So it wasn't a deliberate change after all:

They're restoring the original version.

Thank god, that had really BEEPd me off.
One watches TFatWS just to see Baron Zemo; this is the only legitimate reason. Zemo is a delight, and I said what I said.

I watched it for Sam and Bucky and to watch Sam become the new Captain America. I enjoyed the show thoroughly.
Your mileage obviously varied. Neither of us is right or wrong. It's just our opinions.
I was joking in response to prior naysaying; I watched the whole thing but Zemo was definitely the best part, lol.
Bucky did endure significant nerfing.

Ah, my bad.
I do agree that Zemo was the best part and Daniel Brühl brought his "A" game to FATWS, especially during the nightclub scene.

Thank you for saying that, because if you hadn’t I was going to. Prior to its release, this has been my most anticipated of the Disney+ Marvel shows, but after watching it, I’d say it’s easily the weakest. Boring, completely forgettable villains that we’re supposed to sympathize with, for some reason. I’ll give them this, the principle actors did their best to try to polish this turd, but ultimately they couldn’t overcome the terrible writing.
I watched it out of obligation due to 13 years of sunk cost
