    We haven't gotten mail in three days. We know for sure because all three days we left mail out to be delivered and it didn't get picked up. Never seen the USPS be this bad.

    I wonder why they reversed the order of Falcon/Winter Soldier and this show? Seems like they could have easily aired them in the original intended order but held the theater films off.

    The original pre-Covid schedule is below. We were supposed to have seen four MCU works we haven't yet before this one.

    If that's it she needs to fire her magical commercial director...he or she got WAAAAY too twistedly personal in those ads.

    Oh, look! A butterfly!

    she created vision without her hands, the hex and everything there just emanated from her And she has no idea how she did that to the extent that when asked by Vision and Agatha she claims she didn't do it, despite the fact that she did. Whatever the limits of her powers actually are she doesn't understand at all, and since the moment we saw her create the hex she's been using them in the exact same way she always has--hands up, magic appearing in the hands and eyes, and there's a several-second wind-up. She may eventually unlock what she did in that moment of grief--probably with Agatha's help from here on out--but for now she can't duplicate that at will.

    Wanda cannot use her powers without moving her hands around and building up with a few seconds of red hex magic so I don't know what you mean here. That's how Thunderbolt Ross kept her penned up in the Raft--they kept a straight-jacket on her restricting her hands behind her back so she couldn't use her powers. This is one of the reasons I've been suggesting from episode 1 that Wanda couldn't be doing everything alone. Vision's boss started choking on a piece of food at the exact moment he was questioning their erratic behavior. In the moment I thought Wanda did that, but later I remembered she can't do things without moving her hands. Same with the dishes flying around the kitched--EVERY time they've shown her using telekinesis in the MCU she has to actively use her hands the entire time she's moving objects. I still don't get all of that stuff. Why would Agatha try to prevent Vision's boss from breaking the show? Or Vision from breaking the show by sending Pietro in at the exact moment he starts imploring that Wanda release her control of Westview? All of that could be Agatha, but if it is, and she is producing and broadcasting Wandavision--why would she do that? Silvermane's idea was it's being broadcast back to Mephisto (or Chthon, or Nightmare, or whoever) in his own dimension, and that's possible. If that's the case all you need is a post-credits shot of Pacino, or Ralph Fiennes, or whoever is playing the mystical bad sitting in his chair watching Wandavision and laughing an evil laugh.

    This sounds profound, but I'm not sure what made this occur to you or what it may mean. Are you saying we've been seeing two different personalities throughout the show with two different personalities and possibly two separate memories? Wanda has the Sokovian accent, Scarlet Witch the American accent, perhaps?

    Wait...I've never heard of Marvel spellcasters who could permanently remove the magical abilities of another caster, so I don't know that they can "purge" Agatha of using magic from the dark dimension. So I'm guessing they were trying to kill her. Even when she told her mother she could be good she didn't attack first, only after her mother attacked. So unless someone knows if magical ability can be removed I'm assuming that scene was self-defense.

    I saw no compelling evidence Agatha necessarily wanted Wanda's power for herself--maybe she did, maybe she didn't. What she said at the end of the episode was "you don't know how dangerous you are," and if her motivation were simply to obtain her power I don't see how that's relevant to a motive of power acquisition. So far she may still be consistent with the comic version who is a moral protector.
  12. fantastic_four
    Even that I can't definitively blame her for...maybe yes, maybe no. She told them not to do what they're doing because she couldn't control the dark magic, and then they died. Did she do it on purpose, or did the dark magic do it without her control? I THINK she did it on purpose, but I wasn't totally sure. Also, what exactly were they trying to do? Purge her, or kill her? If they were trying to kill her then I suppose I can't blame her for fighting back. After the rest of the coven died she told her "mother" please, don't do this, I can be good...her "mom" said "no, you cannot," so Agatha gave her a chance, and her "mom" declined to take it. If they were trying to purge her of dark magic then Agatha is evil. If they were trying to kill her she's not necessarily evil and it was self-defense.

    Here's the main thing I don't get from last episode--they showed all of the studio lighting, cameras, and audience seating for Wanda's house. So has she been knowingly filming in front of all of that the entire time? They showed her looking at all of the equipment like she was surprised by it, like it was the first time she had ever seen it. Before she had time to process it she heard Billy and Tommy yelling, and then Agatha did her "the Scarlet Witch" thing and the episode ended. Does everyone know they're on a show, or are none of them seeing any lights or equipment?
  14. fantastic_four
    Vision, Billy, Tommy, and Sparky are all constructs of Wanda. I can't tell if hurting or killing any of them is evil or not.
  15. fantastic_four
    She fed that innocent magic cicada to Senor Scratchy while laughing. That was Mephisto, so good triumphed over evil. Show over!
  16. fantastic_four
    Unless you can name one villainous thing she's done...she's not a villain.
  17. fantastic_four
    Unless she's doing it subconsciously based upon her childhood. If chaos magic gives you the ability to instantly create stop-motion claymation commercials I'm giving up on any credibility for Wanda's power to have limits.
  18. fantastic_four
    I haven't noticed any civilians affected who could report that, nor any press involved. So I don't know how word would have necessarily spread.
  19. fantastic_four
    It didn't do that at all. The Wandavision broadcast is still produced by an unknown person for an unknown reason.
  20. fantastic_four
    Good questions on both. Yeah, Bettany might have been referring to himself, not Al Pacino. If he was referring to himself I'm never trusting that dude ever again.

    I've got six USPS and FedEx packages shipped 6+ days ago bouncing around within their network like it's a game of pinball. Both shippers are sucking about equally right now, which makes me think they now share shipping networks.

    I wondered some of this too. I freeze-framed the scene with the deed, and the only non-trivial info I could find on it is that the realtor who sold the property was the same name as a Wandavision art director named Kate Weddle.

    I thought it was three weeks from the Blip to when Monica was asked to go to the Hex, which places the creation of the Hex well before three weeks.
  24. fantastic_four
    The timeline could be three months, and I still think I'm cutting Hawkeye a ton of slack for wanting to stay at the farm with his reincarnated family instead of confronting SWORD even if Wanda explicitly asked--which is consistent with her traumatized past for her not to do in the first place.
  25. fantastic_four
    I think I need someone with more vested interest in publishing information to draw a timeline. We have this scene, then Wanda going to SWORD and then Westview, then the start of what we're seeing in Westview, then Monica going to Westview a few weeks after Blip. All in less than a month?
