Disney is always doing some subtle edits like they think no one will notice.
I like Marvel. I like Disney. But it seems like they’re in a constant battle trying to figure out who they are, and who their audience can be.
Marvel makes blockbuster shows and movies for Disney. These push the PG-13 envelope. They’re usually bloodless but have larger-scale action, including some violence. Still, these are made for families to be able to watch together, and for kids to idolize. There’s a fine line to walk here.
Well, Disney seems to be pulling that line back toward family-friendly. After adding its former Netflix shows to their Marvel wing with Parental Advisories, now editors are actually going back and retroactively tweaking their shows to lessen the violence.
An observant Reddit user named u/MooninMoulin noticed that Disney has censored The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Editors modified a death to show a body whose eyes were closed, instead of open, as they were in the original.
In another scene, a character is impaled in the shoulder by a pipe. Now the pipe bounces off the shoulder and vanishes.
