It's an actor that I've longed to work with all of my life. We have some amazing scenes together and the chemistry between us is, I think, extraordinary. It's just fireworks on set. So, I'm really excited for people to see that stuff. " lol, 100% he was tongue-in-cheek talking about acting alongside himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agatha's has purple roses. But someone else has a different colour of roses: The theory is that Dottie is actual Clea, a sorceress from the Dark Dimension, tied to the Dr. Strange series. Clea would be a reach... she's pretty damn powerful herself as she's Dormmamu's niece. I doubt she's be in thrall like everyone else in the town.

Guest Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 In short, I like the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ort Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Yes, this show is killing it. Full-on top level Marvel movie quality in a show. What's crazy is that we're now like 5 hours in and even though it's a Marvel show there haven't even been any real action scenes to speak of and yet it's been riviting. I love how this is their first TV show, and it's completely TV show themed. It's very meta. I didn't realize how much I had been missing this universe during this dumb year. If all the Marvel shows are of this quality we're in for a good time... Winder Soldier and Falcon is coming out in like 3 weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternallDarkness Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 So something accord to me and I can't remember if it was exactly answered in the episode or not. So if Wanda didn't steal Vision's body and was able to recreate him perfectly...why wasn't she able to recreate her brother accurately? Why did we get weenie boy instead?

Regarding the creation of Hex Vision, and literally everything else within, Wanda doesn't actually know how she did it, because it was one immense explosion of emotion emanating from her subconscious. She didn't even deliberately create Vision, that's just what her emotions wanted in that moment. And some of her magic springing out of that acts 'autonomously'. It's quite a complex situation.

Kal-El814 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 I really hope that the Pietro recast and the Deadpool in the MCU stuff ends up being winks and nods and not a full on “X-Men in the MCU” thing. I appreciate I’m alone in this. How did Wanda’s dad get Malcom in the Middle DVDs before the show was on the air? Is he a time traveler??? And lastly fake Pietro very obviously talked like Agnes in hindsight, which is pretty clever of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercury33 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Right, the only thing that crossed my mind when he said that was “that’s a pretty nice way if putting that” how you could drag something controversial out of it is beyond stupid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 The title of that IGN article is stupid. The line wasn't controversial. Some idiots on Twitter made fun of it. That is it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CitizenVectron Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Was it corny? Sure. Does it simplify grief, and not really address how grieving people feel? Sure. Is it any worse than the other 99,999 lines about love or grief in mass media? No way. There's nothing controversial about it. The real treasure was the grief we made along the way.

silentbob Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Wouldn’t it be a great way to introduce Deadpool in some ways. Have him be the only one to get too her cause he breaks the 4th wall all the time. Leave the episode like a Curb Your Enthusiasm with mouths agape as he slowly walks off the screen wearing slowly putting on some Mickey Mouse ears, slaps Peter on the back saying “I guess it’s McAvoy’s X-Men . . . . *starts waving goodbye* yeah I can say Mutant now. See you later and soon MCU” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reputator Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I thought Wanda's rune trick was pretty fun. I liked it. Her costume is definitely badass. Definitely the fan theories didn't happen. We didn't see the Visions merge (yet), Dr. Strange didn't show up, Wanda (or Harkness) didn't unleash the mutants, and Ralph never made his demonic appearance. What was there was pretty good though. To really complete her arc it needed to be Wanda that brought down the hex and freed everyone. And really, to face her truth and stop living in her disconnected reality. It was cool to see her "become" the Scarlet Witch. As these things go, a lot was set up for future movies and series, as the MCU is just a perpetual stream of baton passing to the next thing and the next thing.

I feel like that's a question White Vision left to try to solve. Also, I'm sure nothing bad will come off Wanda trying to resurrect her children with chaos magic from the Darkhold. The Darkhold left behind a ton of bodies in Agents of SHIELD. I wonder if it'll corrupt Wanda's mind the way it corrupted everyone else's or if she's immune to those side affects thanks to being the nexus.

Ghost_MH Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I wonder when's the next time we'll see Monica and further explore her new powers. I'm guessing either the Secret Invasion series or Captain Marvel 2. Both are slated for release next year. I'm assuming Secret Invasion since she was literally invited to go up in space by a Skrill and the last time we saw the Skrulls they were chilling with Nick Fury on some space station.

Kal-El814 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I thought the finale was pretty good, as was the show overall. As someone who will be forever content to have the X-Men separate from the MCU, I really liked the Pietro false flag. Buuuut with that said I think the show was hit or miss with those overall. By the time Wanda stopped “broadcasting” I don’t know how much sense the whole “Agatha All Along” bit actually made? I don’t especially care since it and things like the Vision confessional were funny and entertaining, but I wish they had leaned into the WandaVision“gimmick” a bit more. Honestly by the end of the show a lot of the winks were weirdly Deadpool-esque in that they were played almost exclusively for the audience. There’s really no point in the Pietro recast other than to get the Internet buzzing. That obviously worked incredibly well, but it feels a little cheap in hindsight. And I know this is sort of her thing in the comics, but to me it came off just a little weird that the whole premise of the show is that Wanda’s grief is so great and her understanding / grasp of her power is so poor that she just roofies and enslaves a whole town then broadcasts it as a television show without realizing what she’s doing? And then once she acknowledges that’s what she’s doing she’s not able to accept that the people there might be suffering? I know it’s magic and I don’t expect it to “make sense” but here it really feels like they’re not even hiding that everyone can do whatever they need to at whatever moment they need to do it for no other reason than that they need to. Wanda goes from, “I’m not a witch” to casting runes the size of buildings in... minutes? But it’s very well cast, earnestly performed, and very entertaining so I don’t really care about the nits. I think they could have had something REALLY special and instead they just kinda flirted with it and gave us a fun ride, which ain’t bad. And that’s kind of the MCU’s whole brand in general anyway, so whatever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu Posted March 6, 2021 Author Share Posted March 6, 2021 I loved the show and the finale as well. I am very excited about the direction of phase 4, and I love the feeling of not knowing what to expect. I hope Kevin Feige embraces his inner Starlord and makes a bunch of weird shit with all these new characters and storylines. Bring on Falcon & The Winter Soldier!

If this were novelized I'm sure there would be some inner monologue going something like "Well if she's right about me, and I am a witch, then this will work. But I won't know until I try." I had the same realization you did about that but I took it to be a turning point that she started accepting who she is. I rewatched that moment and she repeats back what Agatha told her about runes and witches, again, could be interpreted as acceptance that she may be a witch. But the very next line is "but I don't need you to tell me who I am," also suggesting she doesn't want to be defined by others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
