WandaVision anticipation thread

Not much new footage aside a couple of shots of with the twins.
 
Started an MCU re-watch of movies relevant to WandaVision. Started with Wanda's introduction in the end credit sequence of the Winter Soldier and then watched Avengers Age of Ultron, which introduced Vision. Gonna watch their full story through Civil War and Infinity War. Wanda is in so little of Endgame that I'll probably just go to the portal scene and watch from there. Wouldn't be the first time I've done that.

If I have time, I'd also like to get in the first two Thor movies for Darcy Lewis, Ant-Man and the Wasp for Jimmy Woo and Captain Marvel for Monica Rambeau.
 
I wish Disney+ would release all of the post-/mid-credits scenes separately as "shorts." Both for people who want to access them more easily and for people who want to do, like, chronological rewatches or themed rewatches, like you're doing.
 
I'm also excited to see this, the concept looks very interesting and as most of you surely know is heavily House of M related.

What i wonder is if this could serve as the first step to actually introduce Mutants to the MCU as opposed to the original House of M storyline that had Mutants be the reigning species in Wanda's alternate world (and had them reduced to a mere fraction as the storyline ended with the famous "No more Mutants" line).
 
The first two episodes of Marvel Legends are up, focusing on Wanda and Vision. They're short 6 and 7 minute recaps of each character's story that utilizes old footage, sometimes not in chronological order, and aren't very narratively cohesive.
 
Looking at those trailers, its not looking good.

I was hoping that the sitcom stuff was window dressing for something more and would be over fairly quickly, but if they do full episodes as mostly sitcom then this is going to really suck. I don't want to watch send ups to shitty sitcoms that were being made when my parents were kids. Parodying old sitcoms is a funny single episode gag, its an absolutely asinine ongoing premise for a MCU show. I fucking loathe shows like Bewitched, The Dick Van Dyke Show, The Brady Bunch, etc, I don't need to see extended parodies of those kind of shows. I guess I can just skip past all the sitcom stuff for the 5 seconds of actual plot we'll be getting, probably until the last episode or two when the actual show will start.

This means it will be great!
 
The reviews say that if you're not familiar with the sitcoms, you will not get the same level of enjoyment from this show. Very weird creative choice given that the MCU fanbase skews young...
