WandaVision - Disney+ (***Spoilers***)

STUPID AGATHA SONG STUCK IN MY STUPID HEAD

A brilliant episode. I think we all knew something was up with Agnes. Her intro song was fun and catchy, too. It all has to "kick off" now. I don't really see Agnes sticking around after the show ends, either. Probably replaced by the 'real' villain of the next phase.

I wonder now that we know who Agnes is, will they stop doing the comedy-show pastiches? Apart from the obvious The Office and Modern Family references, the end part reminded me quite a lot of Desperate Housewives. In a way, Wanda has become one now. The show (DH) is also part of ABC's (i.e. Disney's) repertoire, too.

With the right writers I'd be very much open to them doing a Kathryn Hahn led Disney+ mini series showing Agnes through history (presuming she isn't a mortal character that received her powers recently).

Given how well the character has been received I don't think it would be too farfetched.

Anyone else still waiting for sweet dreams when Pietro is on screen

I think most people who watched from the beginning understood what the show was trying to do and as you say it was a slow burn mystery, but the thing about slow burns is that do they have enough to keep the attention during the more quieter moments?

You used Breaking Bad as an example and I'll follow suit by using Better Call Saul; the latter was arguably a slower burn than BB, but it had enough about it to keep the viewer interested. I would say Wandavision probably took a bit too much for granted in the early episodes but it's inconsequential at this point.

Are you saying what happened in the early episodes were 'inconsequential' or that the complaints are? If you meant the former, at minimum they introduce us to the world, the characters, their initial state of mind and all of this has been built up to where we are now. Without those episodes the show simply wouldn't work, for starters the Agnes montage wouldn't be 'It was Agatha all along', it would be 'It was Agatha over this tiny period of time'.

I also don't think those show comparisons work at all for an excuse for the impatience of some here and elsewhere.

The screen time in the first 4 episodes of Wandavison is around the same as the first 2 episodes of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. By the end of episode 4 of Wandavision they'd built out what had happened in the Hex, introduced 2 characters that might be long term in the MCU, and caught up on everything that was happening outside of the Hex. While in the two examples of other shows that you mentioned the story had barely even started.

Again, it seems that some people are just confusing not liking something (i.e., the Sitcom piece) and the pace of the show.

It's been confirmed that Wanda will be part of the Dr Strange series ya? So I'm guessing

Be careful about speculation without spoiler tags, especially because you could be spot on with that guess. It’s a logical assumption. But people will blame you for spoiling it if you’re correct.

Changed it there thanks

Wanda being in the next Doctor Strange movie isn't speculation... She's on the literal cover of it.

The forbidden books that were stolen was to do with Kaecillius, there was a whole scene showing it.

The speculation referred to what might happen in Wandavision. We can come back to it after the last episode airs. I don’t really mind spoilers too much but some people really hate it so best to be safe even if it is just speculation. No harm done, it’s just this particular speculation could be highly accurate if you put the pieces together.

I'm actually surprised that

Strange hasn't shown up yet, given his role of Supreme Sorcerer

, and that Wanda's hex in Westview should've set alarm bells ringing.

Granted that could all change with either episode 8 or 9.

Also with the shows events being 3 weeks after Endgame, you'd have to wonder what Fury makes of it all on the S.W.O.R.D space station.

Then again Hayward is acting Director, so could be keeping him in the loop.

I saw a video the otherday where someone pointed out (Spiderman Far From Home slight spoiler:) that

Spiderman Far From Home takes place about 8 months after Endgame, whereas Wandavision is only set 3 weeks after Endgame.

He could still be tied up with Wanda's mess by that stage *shrugs*

My guess is Dr Strange is the pet rabbit.

Can we start a placing bets on who this Luke Skywalker level cameo is going to be?

My guess is Dolph Lundgren's Punisher 5,000/1

I would suspect there is a decent chance that Fury hasn't left earth yet - on the presumption that the Fury we saw dusting in the post credits for Infinity War was actually Fury.

As for Dr Strange, I'm not sure the Hex so far would necessarily set the alarm bells ringing. Most of the focus of sorcerers seems to be protecting the sanctums, which at this point this is no threat to. What Wands is doing isn't even 'magic' given that it is derived from an infinity stone. Agnes on the other hand might link in.

I remember reading somewhere, or maybe it was a YouTube video that the Fury dusted in Infinity War was THE Fury, and that after Tony's funeral in Endgame, he had Talos assume his identity and place on Earth while he went took care of things off planet - as seen in Far From Home.
