I'm not far into the first episode I think there are going to be a lot of confused MCU fans. I'm very curious to see where this goes. edit: Lol, after watching the first episode I understand why they released two. This is going to be interesting to see reactions to. The first episode does almost feels like a lost Bewitched knock off that could have been on Nick at Nite in the early 90s. People can't say all MCU stuff feels samey anymore. The credits are at least 6 minutes long. The first episode is about 22 minutes long and the second episode is 29 and a half minutes. edit 2: lol the intro/episode is actually going full Bewitched.

Lol just saw an ad for this on tv that made it seem much more like a normal marvel thing. There was no hint of the sitcom element. That’s going to really confuse people.

The first episode felt much more like a 50s sitcom episode than the second did a 60s sitcom episode. Outside of the magic show, almost every scene in episode 2 had people acting strange/not in sitcom mode.

So for later episodes they said there would be office or modern family influenced. I hope Quicksilver and/or Magneto shows up then. I doubt they'd introduce MCU Magneto on this show but I'd love it.

Everyone posted:I don't see Magneto showing up because he was no relation to this version of Wanda. In the comics Magneto is the father of Wanda and Pietro/Quicksilver. While Quicksilver might show up, I think it'll be late in the series. Right now they're trying to play up the mystery of what's happening. Is this something somebody else is doing to Wanda and Vision, etc? If Pietro, Wanda's killed onscreen and left a body brother shows up alive that kind of gives away the game that Wanda is (maybe unconsciously) doing all this herself. spoiling bc speculation based off rumors and a brief mention about someone that showed up in Mandaloiran s2. (just warning in case someone hasn't seen that yet) I know Magneto is their father in the comics. They could easily retcon Wanda/Quicksilver's parents in MCU considering they did so in the comics. If the rumors are true about Fox Quicksilver showing up, I feel like all bets are off. Especially considering Wanda seems to be warping reality. Magneto isn't likely to show up but this would be a great time to start to bring mutants into the MCU. If Ahsoka can show up in Mandalorian without leaks, I feel like we could be in for a big surprise here. Probably not, but it's fun to speculate.

episode 3 thoughts The names of the babies will make a lot of comics fans flip out. The 70s stuff looked great. I don't think this episode was as funny as the previous one. However, this is my favorite episode so far. The glitch/rewind effect was cool. I enjoyed the bits of the main plot that happen at the end of each episode. Quicksilver getting mentioned was a great moment.I wish the episodes were a little longer and had more of the main plot/things going off the rails. Wish Disney would have released all of these at once. Spacebump fucked around with this message at 09:35 on Jan 22, 2021 |

Gavok posted:I can't believe they got away with doing an episode partially based on what's considered one of the worst storylines in Marvel history, Avengers #200. It was Carol Danvers in the comics, but doing a storyline where one of the Avengers goes through a mysterious and super-quick pregnancy and nobody seems to bat much of an eye about it can't be a coincidence. I think this might be taking elements from The Vision and the Scarlet Witch 1985 series. Read what happens in issues 3 and 4 of that series. https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Vision_and_the_Scarlet_Witch_Vol_2_3 https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Vision_and_the_Scarlet_Witch_Vol_2_4 edit: On further glance, the pregnancy wasn't short in that series.

Considering a casting spoiler I hope Evan Peters turns out to be playing Speed and not Quicksilver just for the surprise factor How many Vision/Scarlet Witch stories has this show been pulling from? It seems like so far it's been House of M, The Vision and The Scarlet Witch (1985), and Vision (2015).

Gaz-L posted:Yes, it's a stylised version of the logo for SWORD, a sister agency of (obviously) SHIELD in the comics. We also saw it on the toy helicopter and beekeeper guy and the control room from the first 2 eps. What about Agnes's necklace?  It looks like 3 people with the middle one holding a scythe. I'd guess Agatha, Grim Reaper, and either Mephisto or Nick Scratch. However, I haven't read many stories with those characters so I don't know much about them. Desperado Bones posted:
It'd be weird but this show is already weird and Evan Peters could get away with playing someone in their 20s. It's not the most solid idea but it'd be fun.

This episode was fantastic. I'm really curious how this show is going to end. Dream Scenario we get a Jackman Wolverine temporarily pulled into the MCU for DS2 hook at the end. It's unlikely to happen but it'd be cool if it did.

Have animals/bugs only shown up in Westview around intruders? There was the stork around Monica in the first episode and the bees around the beekeeper/SWORD agent in episode 2. Am I missing any? Are animals/bugs some kind of warning system about outsiders? edit: I guess there is also the Rabbit in the second episode.

That's a good guess but I feel like with the way it's kind of being hyped up, it's going to be a character that would be familiar to movie watchers.

If WandaVision wanted to go with a real fun twist, I wish it would be the following Have Michael Fassbender show up in the final episode to rescue Wanda near the end. At one point briefly have him seem to move metal objects with his mind. After he leaves with Wanda, the last scene of the show reveals this isn't Magneto from the Fox Universe, it's MCU Doctor Doom. The metal that was moved by him eariler was due to science or magic. I know they'd never do something this insane but it would own so much.

zoux posted:I'll note that Olsen didn't say "there will be a cameo on par with the Mandalorian", the interviewer was like "Oh are there any surprises in store, like with Luke" and she was like "oh, yeah." So I'd moderate my expectations and not expect Iron Man and Steve Rogers to drop in. I think people are more hyped because of Bettany's comment about an actor he's always wanted to work with showing up as a surprise that hasn't leaked. Her comment/the story on it came later so some people are probably combining the two stories/actor's comments for their speculation.

If there is a big surprise coming later in the series I think it will be one of the following characters: Magneto (either version), Prof X (either version), MCU Doctor Doom, MCU Doctor Strange, Fox Wolverine, MCU Wonder Man, MCU Reed Richards, MCU Quicksilver (raised from the dead), or Tobey Spider-Man. I feel like expecting one of any of these characters is setting myself up for disappointment except for Strange.

thebardyspoon posted:Spoilers for this episode, Vision asking Wanda where the kids are was the creepiest moment in the MCU so far I think (not a high bar tbf) and a very good question. Since I doubt they're going to have a character be responsible for a bunch of kids dying or disappearing, I wonder how they're gonna explain them coming back or whatever when this series ends. Spoiler from something I noticed in the previews there are a bunch of kids running around trick or treating in the halloween episode so I think what happened to the town's kids will be solved within the next episode or two

enki42 posted:Jennifer Lawrence seemed like she was increasingly done with Mystique with each successive X-Men movie, I don't think she'd be super interested. Also I could see Mystique in particular as a character that they'd want to start fresh with, there's a lot of background characterization with that version of her that might be too much to incorporate into the MCU. From the commentaries of the later prequel X-Men films, it seemed like her main problem was the makeup but found everything else fun.

OldSenileGuy posted:What Avengers are even left? Falcon, but he's off having an adventure with Winter Soldier. Spider-Man is technically an Avenger, but he's in school. Thor hosed off with the Guardians. Natasha is dead. Hawkeye probably retired and is also off having an adventure with Hailee Steinfeld. Everyone at the final battle is technically an Avenger by implication due to Cap saying Avengers Assemble when backup arrived. (If Tony can declare someone part of the team in the field, so can Cap.) This is before Far From Home. Spidey is finishing the school year. Thor would be offworld, Nat would be dead. Cap is an old man. War Machine should be around and the US gov should know how to contact him. Hawkeye probably isn't on his adventure with Steinfeld yet. Winter Soldier and Cap might be starting their adventure already, if not they should at least be able to contact Falcon. Hulk should be around somewhere. The government should know how to contact Ant-Man and Wasp. No idea if they have anyway to contact Strange.

Is it possible Rhodey is the aerospace engineer? He went to the Air Force Academy and then met Tony at MIT. If he isn't it and it's someone that's been in the MCU, I'd guess it's one of the Hulk, Justin Hammer, or Talos' daughter. Hammer and Talos' daughter could know Monica through her mom due to military connections. Hulk is less likely but he's the only other character I can think of that has a ton of degrees. Ideally, they'd be introducing us to MCU Reed here but I doubt it.

Boxman posted:Does the MCU have enough villains that lived through their movies' endings to do a Thunderbolts? Introducing a bunch of heroes then saying "TWIST they were villains" when we didn't see them be villains seems...sorta dumb. Don't highlight these spoilers unless you want to know about characters in the Hawkeye show or the Black Widow movie. Thunderbolt Ross and Justin Hammer. I've read about at least one character cast for Hawkeye that would work Swordsmanand there is a character from Black Widow that may work but it depends on if they survive. Taskmaster

Just going to throw this out there. Endgame is where the multiverse first was explored on camera but nobody seems to have realized it. They weren't actually time traveling but going into different universes that were very similar to the main MCU one.

Speak posted:It was kind of a bit of both, right? The whole point of Hulk's promise to the Ancient One was that he had to return the stone specifically because it otherwise would have created a new universe with very negative consequences for it. Those other universes continue to exist with altered history. The negative consequences of not giving back the stone to the Ancient One are Dormammu would beat Doctor Strange and rule that universe.

Andrew Verse posted:Bruce borrowing the Time Stone from the Ancient One and Steve returning it doesn't create another universe because that is how that sequence of events has always happened. Andrew Verse posted:True, but my point is that the temporary removal of the Time Stone doesn't actually do anything because it has always happened. Loki escaped in that same timeline/universe, Hulk went back to the battle of New York with the others. That is not the past of the MCU, that's a different universe.
