Anyone watching Wandavision ?
 

The first X-man has crossed over to the MCU

Oh ya, the show is FANTASTIC so far.

ya the whole show is a hilarious mind fuck.

loving wandavision, great first entry for the disney+ marvel shows

It's the Marvel fix I've been looking for.

A lot of people hate this show because it doesn't "fit in with their notions of what an MCU show should be". To them I say, fuck you. Enjoy the ride.

It's almost as if the universe Marvel created in its comic books is varied and filled with different ways of telling their stories or something. I laughed at people who would claim they can't buy the Netflix Daredevil existing in the same world as The Avengers. Well then those people shouldn't buy the Marvel comics universe as a whole.

im waiting for all eps to be out before i watch it

You didn't wait too long to see "Cuties" though, did you?

Hmmmm?!

I googled it there and the RT score is like 87% and the public score is 6% lol.

The best indictment of Rotten Tomatoes ever.

Literally no way thats right. I'm fact checking you right now.

The only part that was understandably fucky about the Netflix continuity is that all five of those shows existed in an unspecified time perpetually between the first Avengers movie and Infinity War. That's a lot of high-level shit to be happening in a concentrated area of New York that doesn't get any attention from anywhere in the outside world, especially right after an alien invasion. But people suspend disbelief for a lot less elsewhere, so it's not all that bad.

How did you get on?
I'm still seeing 87% on RT and 6% Google user rating.

I've heard great things; unfortunately I don't have Disney+ though. Bummer.

I decided I didnt care right after I made that post.

Rotten Tomatoes has 93% for WandaVision and 79% audience score.

I was talking about "Cuties"

Vision

Soooooooooooooooooo, I take it you missed Episode's 4 and 5 then? Cause um, if not...

is this show keeping RP and Seanny from wacking off each other? I'm fine with it.

I’ve been enjoying it. My wife, who is usually a big fan of pretty much everything Marvel, dropped off after episode 2. I think the format could be a little “off putting” if you’re not aware of the setup.

I’m probably looking forward to Falcon and The Winter Soldier (FATWS?) a little more.

no i got that. And Wanda reanimating a dead Vision seemed like a good idea to me as well but the idea that she can't bring back anything dead and the arrival of "Peter" instead of Pietro made me wonder if perhaps Vision is something "borrowed" as well.

I have heard that technically the Winter Soldier and Falcon were supposed to air first so i hope we are not missing something that is supposed to be obvious,,]

Looking forward to more hints tomorrow night

What was the opening from this week? Couldn't figure it out.

Malcom in the middle?
looks like my vision idea is a no go and I am not sure what to make with Peters needling of Wanda. I do wonder if this force field is making Mutants..

Is it as bad as it sounds?
Is Elizabeth Olsen still beautiful at least?

It's great and well worth the sub

So she's ugly now?!

No I am not.

lol at Malcolm in the Middle style/references this week.

Also, hot episode... show started off slow first two episodes but feels like "business" continues to pick up every episode since....

I'm 5 minutes in and already enjoying myself.

She's as beautiful as ever. That retro costume is very easy on the eyes.

Show is amazing.

Ya'll better watch it now because I'ma spoil all the spoilers when i watch it tomorrow...I got one more season of Schitt$ Creek to go. ONE MORE

Spoiler tag it if you do.

Don't be a dick.

Not going to lie, Olsen looked damn fine in that costume. :o

also saw an interesting theory that

Whedon, in addition to be a raging misogynist, was an idiot telling her she'd never wear the classic costume.

I was about to give up on it but then the end of ep 3 happened...digging it now.

I'm all caught up...can't believe there's only 2 eps left.

Called it! (re: the ending of the latest episode)

Think a lot of people did....

When she wasn't IDed in Ep. 4, people had an inkling. Now is she truly evil or is she still playing a role that's the question.

I know he's dead, but i'm getting major Kilgrave vibes after watching this last episode. The dark purple, the mind control stuff. Agatha looking to bring someone back from the nexus that she lost.

Does Agatha have any ties to Kilgrave?

Paul Betnay said the one thing that hasnt been leaked about the show is a actor that makes an appearance that he's been wanting to work with forever. Maybe David Tennant?

If anything she has more ties to the Fantastic Four than Kilgrave.

But the MCU hasnt always gone by the comics. And this could be a way to bring Kilgrave back which I would fucking love because I love David Tennant.

Ralph Kilgrave

Def think she’s using Wanda to use her powers to bring “Ralph” back/across/whatever. The question will be who is Ralph? Mephisto? Nightmare? Killgrave would be interesting though.

Episode 8. Nuts

Walnuts

It's definitely putting a smile on my face. A bit of an awkward way to work in the name at the end but what can you do?

I felt quite emotional watching this episode.

But what is grief but love persevering?

FUCK YOU WANDAVISION! FUCK YOU SO HARD RIGHT NOW!

Bubble Vision versus White Vision.. Wanda gonna go cray cray

Can I just say that I fucking hate videos like that?

No, I'm sorry. You can't.

Yeah? Well...I'm going to...um...watch a different kind of video! Yeah! How do you like that? :mad:

I imagine this is only a 1 season goer? So my question would be if this is going to conclude entirely at Episode 10 for WandaVision, will this then lead in to the Falcon TV series as that is going to be starting around the time that WandaVision ends?

Doubtful considering that they each are dealing with their own stories and Falcon and Winter Soldier was supposed to be the first show to premiere before WandaVision.

Wanda is going to be part of the next Doctor Strange movie, so probably going to lead into that. Still predicting that the Doc himself shows up in the last episode.

i love this show a lot but man it feels like there's a lot to wrap up/answer in just one more episode... feels like this could/should have been a 10-ep season instead of the decidedly odd run of nine

it'll probably leave a few threads dangling for doctor strange 2 to pick up i guess -- looks like mephisto/nightmare might not appear here after all, though i really thought there would be a puppet master beyond agatha :\

Didn't really like the 8th episode too much... is Agatha even a puppet master? Seems like after making a big deal about it being "Agatha all along", they were like "Nah, it was Wanda" and Agatha just showed up and was trying to manipulate Wanda a bit to figure out how she did it and how she is so powerful

Maybe it's a longer episode? :?:

I think with all the hype, the big bad might be underwhelming.

I really was convinced it would be Professor Xavier and this would be a House of M type scenario.

Damn...Elizabeth Olsen! I mean...DAMN!!! :eek::drool:

Just wrapped up the show. There's 2 bonus credit scenes...stick through the entire credits for the 2nd one.

Welp that was excellent. Couple of really great standout scenes. One with the 2 Visions, and a scene with Wanda that pissed me off because it led me to wanting to see more.

Show was ok I guess... Probably could have made a "tighter" movie with the same "effect".

Excited to see Wanda again in Dr. Strange..... Wonder where we will see White Vision next....

Not quite sure what Hayward's whole deal was and why he would get arrested....

I for sure thought white vision would show up at the end and give Wanda a happy ending to the show but I guess they're saving him for later.

Wanda can give me a happy ending....:shifty:

Same

Elizabeth Olson: Man I'm so glad I've signed on to play the Scarlet Witch. So I know a comic's accurate costume is probably too much to ask for but can I at least get something?

Joss Whedon: Lol. Here's a dark red leather trenchcoat. Take it and be happy.

WandaVision: Hold my beer you pretentious pretend feminist fuck

i really enjoyed this whole thing on balance and thought the finale was v good but i do think the balance of stuff left unresolved (for dr strange 2 to pick up or whatever) vs swift wrap-ups because they had to wrap stuff up was a bit off?

- who was jimmy woo's missing person?
- dottie was really hyped up as an important character early on then just... disappeared for five episodes and came back for like three lines
- we last saw darcy getting ditched by vision at the crossroads then she right-place-right-times it two episodes later to be there to T-bone hayward?
- what was hayward's actual goal?
- so the residents of westview are just going to do their grocery shopping next to a mind-controlled agatha and not feel weird about it?
- what was with the eastview cops?
- monica is just like "ha ha, i forgive you for holding a town psychologically hostage. anyway, see you later"?
- i guess white vision will come back later as the 'real' vision again? but override his programming imperative to destroy the vison bc of the ship of theseus paradox maybe?

ANYWAY GOOD TIMES

Haywards goal was to activate and test his Vision and probably market it

Seems to me that his plan was to rebuild Vision and use him as a sentient weapon, and was more interested in using the situation in WestView to figure out how Wanda brought Vision back...... and for that he got arrested I guess.

The lack of resolution with white vision is what really bothered me but otherwise I really enjoyed it

that's clearly going to be settled later. aalmost certainly in phase 4 but id imagine in a film.

Maybe White Vision will be the bad guy in Black Panther 2

So this thing ended and I gotta say, I'm impressed. The last half was obviously done during lockdown and the story kinda suffered for it. But hey, it wasn't a bad final. What they do next with Wanda, that's gonna be interesting.

Also I love her MCU costume. It's flat out perfect.

The show did give me that MCU fix that I had been missing, and I'm interested where they will take the Scarlet Witch character in the future. I'm not versed in Marvel lore, but are they gearing up to make her a big bad, either in Dr Strange 2, or further down the line?

Probably not a big bad but just owning a larger role and learning from Doctor Strange. Her biggest act that you could claim was disastrous and bad, Brotherhood membership aside, was the whole House of M storyline where she basically broke down and then went on to fuck over mutantkind. I doubt that's where they're going.

Started watching it yesterday. Pretty solid so far.

Yikes! That was a very painful ending. Holy shit.
