WandaVision

[Usagi Pilgrim]

Here's the thing, though. Have we gotten clarification as to whether Runaways is part of this same live-action universe? Or, for that matter, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? The Darkhold has been in both, and I can't remember if it looked like this book.

In the last scene of AoS, set in present day, a character was seen driving away, & in the background was the Triskelion. Since it was destroyed in WINTER SOLDIER, the producers inserted it to show that this was a slightly tangent reality where some events from the MCU happened, like the events of DARK WORLD, where the agents were shown doing cleanup in England, & the breakup of SHIELD, but in this reality, the headquarters weren't destroyed.

Not sure about RUNAWAYS though.

So, I'm starting to agree more & more that the book is the Darkhold, simply for how much it all connects back to Wanda & some of her comic origin.

Chthon wrote the Darkhold, he's the god of chaos, he's the one that imbued Wanda with her Chaos Magic powers, he created the animal/humanoid hybrids that raised her & Pietro, &...

Here's the kicker...

Elisabeth Olsen said the reveal would be like Luke Skywalker appearing in The Mandalorian. Paul Bettany says it's an actor he's wanted to work with SINCE HE WAS A LITTLE BOY.


Ready for this?

In the animated show Super Hero Squad, Chthon was voiced by none other than Mark Hamill.

I could be reaching here, but I'm be ok with being wrong. Lol

Next episode will bridge the MCU with My Hero Academia.

 

[Sluis Van Shipyards]

I think Agents of Shield is still not MCU canon. It should be though.

 

[JoeG]

It never will be. That show was a product of infighting at Marvel. Feige never wanted that show in the MCU. He might cherry pick some characters to bring over, but thats probably as far as it will go.

Paul Bettany says it's an actor he's wanted to work with SINCE HE WAS A LITTLE BOY.

This was just a joke Paul was making about playing two Visions. The person he always wanted to work with was himself.

I have a question, a serious question, a question id like to get to the nitty gritty on, How did they sort out Sword\visions cape,
now real vision got his cape by copying Thor and phasing one into existance,
and im thinking it runs like some sort of program he could switch on and off, but when his body is rebuilt we see Sword\vision with cape,
even before being powered up,
so the only thing i can think of, is that the R&D boys at sword must of sent a tech down to Capes R us,

one thing is for sure, they didnt consult with this person, did they

 

[B-Movie Zombie]

Maybe it was because when he was taking off line, He had the cape on. Maybe??

 

[Paul Andrew]

Didn't he do an album a few years back?
The Chthonic?

I can't believe no one thought my pun on Dre's The Chronic was funny. What the heck guys?

Or is this just the first time they've powered him up in the field? Maybe they did a limited power-up in the lab, and he re-materialized his cape, which spooked them so they shut him down again.

 

[B-Movie Zombie]

There are two after credits scenes.

 

[renaissance_man]

That was an amazing, exciting, touching, finale.
I'm both happy and sad, happy because it was a great finale but sad because it came to an end. I feel I could have very happily watched another 2 hours.
I'll echo B-Movie Zombie's hint, stay until after the full credits!
I can't wait to give this a second watch tomorrow with my other half.

Glad to see some of you enjoyed it, it fell flat for me. Not bad, just not great. Don’t know if I have some kind of Marvel burnout after endgame or what, but I felt there was so much unrealized potential. And that Pietro tease left a bad taste in my mouth. Maybe it was intended as a cheeky nod to the fans but if there not going to connect him to multiverse shenanigans, I just feel it’s yet another disappointing missed opportunity.

 

[akumazeto]

I liked it. But I don't take things to seriously. I hope we see Paul again.

 

[Goldhawk]

I liked the new costume and seeing Agnes admit the book was the Darkhold and then read from it was quite interesting.

 

[CelticRuins]

I really liked most of the this series, but just like most others, the red herring of Evan Peters was just so poorly written.

It was cheap teenage boy gag, and I know most are equating it to the Mandarin in IM3; stupid.

Which now leads to the leaks about Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield and all the other actors filtering in from the past movies, into No Way Home, to seem like much bigger gags.

They could have done this right, but decided to "subvert expectations", once again. The bad writing and building a story up to just rush the ending and leave so many loose ends, is getting pretty damn tiring. Why have a line about Woo's "missing person"? All the actors were pulling multiple trolls. It was just a giant troll on fans who love the source material. The writers and producers know people want certain things and are just laughing all the way to the bank. It's boring.

Other wise, loved her comic book translated to the MCU costume and Photon.

They did Evan Peters dirty, and it honestly over shadowed a lot of it.

I will say that his headshot photo Monica picked up was still very sus. And did Agatha give him super speed? Can she do that? She said she didn't create him, but manipulated him. Many are thinking he is the "missing" person. The name is far too goofy and checks out for Peter (and comic book Quicksilver's) range of humor. Why was his hair also the same and was before Agatha manipulated him? Someone on Twitter also pointed out that we're still in the hex at this point, why would a head shot of this person just be lying around? Dottie's actual name is Sarah, etc....too many loose ends here.

I know Kevin Feige is being an uber troll, but there's definitely a way to fix this. Why have Agatha say "you have no idea what you've unleashed", to just back up into a multiverse movie?

Meh. Seems pretty wasteful to have bought the Fox properties to not even do something legitimate with them other than come up with "The Mutants" and rewrite an entire series AGAIN. Blending into a multiverse would make sense, and fans of the comics would completely get it. You could also still make it make sense to the normies as well.

 

[Knightjar]

A bit underwhelmed by that ending. After braving the first two episodes and going along for the ride, I guess I was just expecting more of a pay-off. Especially after what seemed to be an amazing moment with Evan Peters' introduction, now reduced to nothing. The witchy shenanigans didn't excite me much - casting Dancing Lights gets old quickly.

I don't feel cheated as such; it was a fun ride, just a mildly disappointing end.

 

[agliarept]

terrible, soft, and underwhelming ending.

Waste of even peters for the sake of a D joke...smh.

Well, I, for one, enjoyed the hell out of seeing Wanda finally unlock her true potential. I think people who are so hung up on Evan Peters are missing the point. HE'S NOT THE CENTER OF THE SHOW, GUYS.

Seeing Wanda come to terms with her grief and find the strength to let go of Vision and this world she created was some of the best writing and acting I've seen out of the MCU in a while. It was beautiful, heart-wrenching, and I'm not ashamed to say I ******* ugly cried before I had to log in for work.

10/10, will watch again.
