A Youtube channel called Screen Culture has been posting episode previews, and I think they appear to official.

Oh, OK never mind then.

Pretty sure the "Nexus" ad was referencing this. The place Stark found J.A.R.V.I.S. sans his memory, trying to protect the world from Ultron.

I think it refers to Wanda being a Nexus Being--the 616 universe does revolve around her.

 

[Guy Gardener]

You mean it wasn't a Star Trek Generations reference?

 

[Reverend]

I think it refers to Wanda being a Nexus Being--the 616 universe does revolve around her.

Every advert thus far has been a reference to something in Wanda and/or Vision's past. I see no reason why that would change now.

Also, it's a direct allegory for what vision is doing in this and the previous episode: J.A.R.V.I.S. was "dead", yet continued to exist with no memory, only an impulse to protect the people of the world from a destructive force. And the place he was recovered by Stark was at the Nexus hub.

Weighing that against a random, meaningless concept that has never even been mentioned anywhere *ever*? Yeah...no.

 

[theenglish]

The Nexus is also the space where all universes intersect in the multiverse.

 

[Nerys Myk]

So, probably not a reference to this guy.

 

[Reverend]

The Nexus is also the space where all universes intersect in the multiverse.

Which has never been mentioned anywhere in the MCU, unlike the subject literally every other WandaVision ad thus far; Stark Industries>Strucker>Hydra>Lagos>Magic>Nexus. But sure, you go die on that hill.

 

[ITDUDE]

If Disney bought Paramount, it definitely would be

Just presenting alternatives. The Nexus does have an established place in the comics universe--although I am wondering if the computer Nexus relates to the comics Nexus.

I watched with captions on, and when Wanda was pouring the milk on the cereal, there were captions for a morning radio broadcast announcer, but there didn't seem to be any audible radio in the scene. It was rather odd.
Kor

Oh thank GOD- I thought I was going crazy when that happened. I turned on the CC on my smart tv like 3 apps ago and I never bothered to turn it off. It's too handy to, but this time it creeped me out.

Hot take: Every episode should end with a musical sequence.

None of the ads so far have been about Vision. They've all been about Wanda's past *in the direct order she experienced them*. So yeah, it would make sense that they eventually stop being about her past and start being about her possible future, which would quite possibly involve introducing a previously unmentioned concept.

So Disney buying Fox doesn’t mean anything eah? Nor XMU Pietro appearing in MCU? Nor the fact that both Dr Strange 2 and Spiderman 3 will feature multiverse? But yeah, let’s ignore it for sure...

 

[Orphalesion]

Just spitballing here...what if the Nexus is what Agatha is after and needs Wanda for (because she's the Nexus being, just like in the comics)? Introducing it here would be no problem at all.
Likely they'd do a second introduction of the concept in the next Doctor Strange movie, for the people who didn't watch Wandavision.

Personally I agree with the idea that the commercials are centred around Wanda (her past, mental state, future) and see no problem with the Nexus being hinted at in the commercial before it becomes a central topic in the last two (or final) episodes.

Hot take: Every episode should end with a musical sequence.

Yeah, but that's true for every TV show, ever.

Call me dense but it just occurred to me that Earth's super secret organization was SHIELD before Thanos and is now SWORD after Thanos. Like we've somehow gone from defense to offense, not that the Earth as portrayed really has much ability to go on offense compared to many of the intergalactic baddies we've seen. Let's face it- ingenuity and a little luck beat Thanos.

SWORD and SHIELD are two different organizations.

And if you include Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D as part of the same universe as the movies, then S.H.I.E.L.D. is still out there.

Nor XMU Pietro appearing in MCU?

It's really looking like he's not actually Pietro from the X-Men movies.

 

[ITDUDE]

It's really looking like he's not actually Pietro from the X-Men movies.

I’ll take that bet

 

[JD]

Like I said before, if he was that Pietro, I would have expected some direct hints in that direction by now.
The theory I saw earlier in the thread that seems most likely right now is that he's Agatha's son Nicholas Scratch. I'd still put Mephisto up there as a decent possibility, but I'm almost certain at this point he isn't the X-Men movie's Quicksilver.
