WandaVision

[AlexanderMBush]

What I love about this episode--is that while it's extremely predictable, it's seeing how things come together from the past three episodes up towards now. I do agree that it should've been released with the first 3 episodes all at once--if only to make things more seamless.

Spoiler

Some spoilery notes:
- Woo and Darcy really work off together in a way that I kind of love. Especially Darcy, with the small banter she gives to the "Clown Car" trio and seeing that she was the woman at the TV at the end of EP1
- I love the fact that the SWORD HQ is essentially in Port Canaveral; as if it took over old NASA sites in the process.
- The visual effects for Wanda as she rebuilds portions of the house in the process of forcibly YEETING Monica was great too.
- What surprises me the most, lies on Vision essentially being the corpse; reanimated possibly by Wanda. I wouldn't be surprised if they play into that.\

- As a more lengthy bit--I really love the fact that they began this episode--with people coming back to The Blip. The chaotic element of seeing people come back compared to the moments of when Hill/Fury and when Clint's family were blipped feels really nice. Especially with the way they shot it.

- I definitely think the leader of SWORD is getting our "Missing" person. That said..I'm not inclined to think it's Captain Marvel.

I wouldn't be surprised if Nick Fury showed up. I mean, i'm sure he certainly would like to know where the hell Wanda is at and SWORD is a sister organization to SHIELD.

Spoiler

I'd actually see Fury albeit--though depending on things, he could still be out in Space, chillin' with the Skrulls.

My guess is Fury, Bro-Hulk [sue me], or if the AOS reference means anything from Episode 3...Coulson.

That would make the entire existence of AOS worth it if we got Coulson back in the MCU.

Spoiler

With the rumors of them just rebooting Daredevil with the same lead actor as before--it would not surprise me if they bring Agents of Shield in some "shifted" way, back to the MCU proper. Even if that means piece-mealing what's canon and what's not.

The only reason why I don't think Captain Marvel is involved--is that I don't see her popping up into TV until Secret Invasion for 2022.

Spoiler

I just think with SWORD tying so closely to Captain Marvel, it would be a good opportunity to just leave a bit of plot line to pick up going forward with Captain Marvel. It would also help her character to be on screen again. She's not scheduled to be in a movie until CM 2 in mid 2022. That's a long break from Endgame.

By far my favorite episode. Felt like I was watching an MCU movie. The opening scene gave me chills.

Spoiler

The missing person could be Dottie. She was strangely missing from that evidence board. Also, check out the third note on Norm’s sheet, I don’t remember seeing the part about Vision waking him up and him briefly remembering who he is IRL in the first three episodes. Maybe this virus is messing with my memory. But I think this could be something they included as a mistake because it’s going to happen later.

Yeah, this episode definitely had the MCU "feel" to it that we came to know during The Infinity Saga from beginning to end.

I'll have some Marvel with a side of nightmare fuel, thank you very much.

Seriously though, loving this so far.

So Wanda is just puppeteering Vision's corpse then?

Spoiler

I'm not exactly sure. "Geraldine" had just mentioned Ultron, so it could be that it was reality starting to creep in to Wanda's little fantasy.

I mean...near perfect episode

Really invested me in this series now. Think having a few smaller but familiar faces from the MCU was super smart. Just great episode and can't wait to see the why behind everything and how it all ends.

I was very weary of why they had cast Kat Dennings to reprise her role as Darcy when it was first reported, but seeing this episode, it was the perfect time and perfect situation in which to bring her back.

Best episode so far.

Spoiler

It seems clear now that Wanda is the one responsible for the vast majority of what's transpiring, and I hope the show will eventually explain how she went from appearing to be at peace with Vision's death (or at least working on it) at the end of ENDGAME... to having mentally cracked in such a dire way.

Olsen's playing it all really well, in any case. There's a sinister edge to her now that bodes well for DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS.

Dealing apparently appropriately, and at peace are 2 different things.

PTSD seems to be a simple answer to the question you pose in the spoiler. Anyone can put on a brave face, but it doesn't mean you feel any better.

 

[belloq87]

I'm not saying it's implausible. I just want the show to (eventually) make it clear and unambiguous.

Spoiler

I’ve always thought the way they had her watch Vision die twice (one of which she killed him) at the end of Infinity War was going to cause a lot of anguish on her part. WandaVision started as a comedy but I think it will end feeling more like a tragedy.

Some of my friends were thrown off by how at peace she seemed at the end of Endgame, but knowing what I know of the character in the comics this breakdown seemed inevitable.

Also want to point out...Thor/Tony got to finish Thanos and even Steve got to kick his ass until the fleet showed up

Wando got a moment...but he didn't even remember her it's like she could not even really let her emotions out, also sure she overheard someone say "well at least only the robot" discarding her feelings for Vision


While yes its Wanda...I'll bet anything someone is behind this like they told her how to do it to get something from all this as well. Even if so far we see no one leading her to this

It seems obvious to me that the someone is Mephisto. There's been a lot of references to the number '6' on the season and there was even that line about "the devil's in the details" and then Agnes chirped, "That's not the only place he is" (with a bit of a maniacal laugh).
