When I first saw it I didn’t give it a chance 

i really appreciate it now. Especially the Mordo character 

 

Yeah, I didn't see it until a couple years after it came out, so I missed it in the theaters.  Won't make that mistake on the next one (assuming theaters are still around by then)

Dr. Strange is really really good. Story, character-development, acting, FX, it's really good. Easy top 3 of the MCU for me with #1 depending on the day LOL!

 

Dr Strange is my favorite MCU movie....well my favorite super hero movie.  Very much looking forward to the sequel and how WandaVision will feed into it...

So the more I think about this scene and the color rationale behind each magic...

Is this where Dottie reveals herself as another witch of the Yellow Magic power that helped recreate Vision?

I thought yellow mind be referring to mind stone power that Wanda absorbed after interacting with the tesseract in the Sokovia experiment?

I really enjoyed this episode, thought it was great to have an emotional backstory prior to the final episode.  I've rather enjoyed all the discussions and guesses/speculations every week; at the very least I've learned a LOT of comic book story history from people here and certain reaction video channels.

I thinking the big reveal will not be Dr. Strange, but the TRUE friend of Monica who shows up next week.

How are the kids real? They didn’t exist, and then they did, and then they were grown...

Didn't Agatha say something like Wanda has the power to create sentient life, but is using it to make breakfast for dinner?  

Edit: She says Wanda is capable of spontaneous creation

I have the "Ultimate Tron Experience" blu-ray set that came out after Legacy (and comes in a light up Identity disc!), and includes a blu-ray of the original Tron.  Neither that that dialog or scream is on there either, which is odd. 

I had the 20-year anniversary DVD set that came out in 2002, but sadly that was lost in a fire, and wonder if it was on that version as well.

I was thinking the same thing. You can't have a rule where it only applies to an individual that has the same capabilities and genes as everyone else without some logical influence.

Two more episodes to at least determine if there will be more.

Has anyone else entered and left the hex more than once?  Or maybe since she was part of the blip a week or two prior, that may have also done something to her DNA...

So it was shown that Agnes wasn't really catatonic when Vision woke her up, so apparently she was pushing him to go out of the hex (and be destroyed)?  What is the end goal there?  Have him destroyed so that a certain big bad can enter the Hex?

Also, was it her that started to revert the furniture/house/etc so that Wanda things she is going crazy in order to force her to take those Nexus pills?  This then causes her to become a Nexus being (if she isn't already) in order to travel/open the multiverse?  Isn't Mephisto a Nexus being?

Also, I hope the next few episodes are longer (love the show), as long as it isn't 30 minutes of show and 30 minutes of credits.

Danny Elfman will compose score

Interesting. Oversight or intentional? I do love the way this show makes ya think. Some stuff is Easter eggs, some is meant to throw us off and heck some is probably connections they never would have dreamt fans would make!

Yeah, tough to know which is which, and I'm enjoying the ride. Will have to rewatch entire run once all episodes air.

Also I see lotsa people trying to make sense of the whole Ellis Abe and Rolling Hill street signs (and to be fair we saw them for a while) but I want to go back to see if Agnes license plate made any sense to anything

Well it is odd that she has a Connecticut license plate when she supposedly grew up there in New Jersey 

I've cracked it.  Since she is wearing circus ringmaster colors, that means she is actually Hugh Jackman, which means she is actually....Wolverine!

Defenders costume?

So it's not a big thing but I didn't see anyone mention it. At the beginning of the episode I noticed under "Pietro"s sleeve he has a tattoo that says "mom". Now I'm not certain but I dont think either Pietro ever had such a tattoo.

Saw online that someone theorized that since we don't see the full tatoo, it might actually say "HOM" for House of M...but probably a stretch

Why was Captain Rambeau so dismissive of bringing in Captain Marvel and quickly changed the subject when she was brought up?

How about that Family Ties intro tho?!?

I was waiting for the "sha-la-la-laaa".  Also had a "Sit, Sparky, sit" line said by one of the twins, which I think was similar to the end of Family Ties

Does anyone have a good feel for the nature of Wanda's powers?  In the comics they've changed dramatically over time, but I can't tell if there's a unifying fundamental nature to her MCU powers that explains them.  She seems virtually omniscient in what they've shown her doing in this series if we're to believe what we're seeing.

I'm not too fluent on MCU lore, so I culled some of this info from youtube (sorry if this is fairly well known to some).  Before the Avengers came to the last Hydra stronghold in Sokovia, Baron von Strucker was experimenting and imbuing Wanda and Pietro their powers by using Loki's scepter (or some of the infinity stones?), and she ended up seeming to have reality, mind, and time stone powers.  Also interesting is that Strucker is the name of the watch in the commercial during episode 2.

This is at least third time I've purchased books from CDaBruce, and each time has been great!  Packages shipped quickly and securely.  Fast and easy transaction, thanks!

 per PM, thanks!

I just watched the first two episodes, and enjoyed it.  Something different that has me hooked and I am looking forward to the upcoming episodes.  There are probably a lot more Easter eggs and references than what appear to be on the surface, and this guy seems to lay them out pretty good and tie them back to the comics/movies/etc (I really didn't know much on Wanda's history).

Side note, I really liked the Accountant (may be one of few?)...I think they are making another one? 

Was it ever said how much HBOmax paid for the immediate streaming rights for WW84?

Bad Example:

You only get one wish. This is established when Max Lord asks his worker/minion for something (I believe the appointment with the president) and is told he'd already granted him the wish of a new car. So it doesn't work and Max goes off to find someone else.

Later in the film: Barbara gets two wishes.

 

I may have misheard, but I thought Max Lord said something on the jet about how she got one wish from the actual stone, but once he became the wishing well, she is now able to get one through him as well?

I dunno, she’s an honest and patriotic American who does not want to commit tax fraud?

#TaxationIsTheft

More than just tax fraud, the Bank Secrecy Act makes it illegal to "structure" deposits in order to avoid the $10K reporting mandate.  It is used to look for money laundering, terrorist funding, narcotic funding, as well as tax fraud and other items.
