Spoilers WandaVision discussion thread

[Awesome Possum]

I'm becoming more inclined that not only is Wanda not responsible for the Hex, but now I also wonder if that was really Wanda who confronted SWORD outside of the bubble. As I questioned earlier, it seemingly happened at the same time as Wanda and the twins were looking for Sparky and I came up with different explanations for how that happened (if it was even necessary), but perhaps the explanation is the easiest one: It was actually Agnes masquerading as Wanda. That would fit in with the idea that Agnes is Jimmy's witness but was disguised as a man at the time.


Oh, that's an interesting thought that I had considered. That would give Agnes direct motivation for keeping Wanda captive than merely because she has magical powers.

Given that there are no children inside the hex other than the twins, it’s interesting that the talent show in episode two was “for the children”. Maybe the motive behind what’s happening is getting the twins.

Yup, definitely. The absence of the town's children is definitely important, especially considering Vision called it out. Considering this is Marvel and Disney, it's not going to be something like Agnes eats children, but I do worry about why they're missing.

I think it's like SHIELD but only for space based threats.

In the comics it was SHIELD's counterpart for dealing with Aliens.

Sentient
World
Observation and
Response
Division

In this show, it seems like SWORD was a SHIELD subdivision/subsidiary and it's now "Sentient Weapon Observation and Response Division". About keeping tabs on Superhumans and if they're up to no good.

The X-Men Comics have a similar group called the MRD, Mutant Response Division. They're always bad guys though.

According to Wikipedia, Agatha Harkness trained Wanda to use her powers, so what if this is all just one of her lessons that's gotten out of control?

Agnes is the witness that was witness protection program that Woo mentioned. She was bored and created Hex for personal amusement. Wanda found it, figured out that it can “revive” Vision and took it over. Because they both powerful, they are continually fighting for control. Most of the time Wanda is winning, but Agnes still is in there somewhere.

The show version still seems to have space division, with the mention of astronauts and that Monica was one before the snap.

Weren't there some scenes of Agnes "breaking character"?

In the last episode and at the beginning of this one.

I thought there was one earlier.

There was the 70's episode.

So my plan to prep for WandaVision was to watch Age of Ultron, Civil War, Infinity War and the final battle in Endgame as well the first two Thor movies, Ant-Man and the Wasp and Captain Marvel to cover all of show's main and supporting characters from the MCU.

With Evan Peters appearance, I briefly mulled over watching the X-Men movies that he was featured in, but then decided I wasn't that dedicated.

 

[Skywalker]

Days of Future Past is the only one you'd need to watch--and the only one that's worthy.

 

[Non Sync]

We don't know that she created/started it at all. She seems unable to remember *how* exactly it started, though that could certainly be an act.



They haven't mentioned him again yet.

He was SWORD tech in the sewer who's hazmat suit was Wandazied into the bee keeper.
What happened to him, I don't know.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

Days of Future Past is the only one you'd need to watch--and the only one that's worthy.

I'd say the "Sweet Dreams" sequence is worth watching but that's it.

 

[ITDUDE]

I'd day thr "Sweet Dreams" sequence is worth watching but that's it.

A quick refresher on Quicksilver

I think Days of Future Past is the best one of the first class cast series

 

[Bry_Sinclair]

My one criticism about the show (well other than the weekly release) is that the episodes are only 30 minutes long. There is just so much in there that I'm left wanting more!

I feel like the episodes have been just as long as they've needed to be. Like chapters in a book. I really don't see the need to artificially inflate the runtime by adding an arbitrary amount of minutes that has no relevance to a streaming release. And the fact that you were left wanting more is the whole point. That's what they're trying for.
