kobayashiGT Internal Moderator March 22, 2021 Share March 22, 2021 **Spoilers ahead** After years in the ice, it looks like The Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan) has found his new favourite drink judging by the number of bottles he’s put away. While in Brooklyn during the first episode of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, we see our favourite snowman having a rather polite conversation with his newfound friend at a Japanese Bar. With a good amount of shots and screentime, this has to be some form of product placement for Tiger Beer. However, it gets deeper. After all, it’s been rumoured that much of the action in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier will also take place in Madripoor. We’ve previously reported that the fictional South-East Asian country will make its debut in the series. Incidentally, Tiger Beer is a product of Singapore which Madripoor is loosely based off. Additionally, after the bust that was introducing the X-Men into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this is probably the next best way to weave our favourite mutants into the mix. While the scene is short overall, the camera gives the environment plenty of focus and it even ends up with the perfect money shot – Looks like Singapore is once again is in the spotlight and we’re pretty sure the tourism board and Asia Pacific Breweries Singapore would be happy with the prominent placement. Madripoor https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Madripoor Quote Probably the best beer in the Marvel Universe. 🤣 ↡ Advertisement 2 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratovarius Turbocharged March 22, 2021 Share March 22, 2021 Watched ep1 last friday. When i saw the tiger beer, it looks so out of place as the scene is out in the West. It's like drinking Singha beer in the US. lol. Wonder how much APB paid to get into that scene. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGMCF328 Turbocharged March 22, 2021 Share March 22, 2021 (edited) Better don't be too happy. Wait some jokers from India come out claiming that Tiger beer was by them first. And here's the proof: The Royal Bengal Tiger is the national symbols of India! 😵 http://www.walkthroughindia.com/wildlife/the-5-holy-animals-of-india/ Edited March 22, 2021 by SGMCF328 3 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a japanese restaurant scene after all, so expect to see some non-west beer, but strangely enough, no jap beer. Anyway the lady at the bar is playing into asian stereotype, so hollywood never changes! 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1fast1 Supersonic March 22, 2021 Share March 22, 2021 The first episode of tF&tWS was OK, but it didn't give me goosebumps like the opening of WandaVision. It's just like an average episode of Agents of Shield, a series I couldn't finish as it was so meh. Let's hope it picks up. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manipur is a state in northeastern India, with the city of Imphal as its capital. It is bounded by the Indian states of Nagaland to the north, Mizoram to the south and Assam to the west. It also borders two regions of Myanmar, Sagaing Region to the east and Chin State to the south.
