WandaVision WandaVision General Discussion Thread

[Kev4000]

There's no plan for a second season of this right?

I mean by the time this unfolds that's it. Just a really long mini-series version of a one shot.

In my opinion they only should do those mini projects. If they want give Falcon and Winter Soldier another shot, relase it 2024 with a subtitle as a new mini series.

I woudnt say that this is even a long mini series in overall time. The episode structure make it more filled then its actually is.

I think about the ad during the episode 3. We all know each commercial symbolize wanda's traumas, right ? And what if the one from episode 3 imply hydra had implanted false memories into wanda and pietro brains, like parents death by stark weapons for example. It would be a good way to establish the blood relations between magneto and wanda for the future. What do you think, guys ?

I think the show is boring, lacks action, and the jokes are flat. I keep hearing people talking about how great it is but I just don’t see it. If you put the 3 shows together it would be about an hour. The sitcom idea sucks. Yes I know it is based on the comics.

FWIW, I tried Legion hearing how great it was but by the third episode I threw in the towel and never looked back. Yet it’s perfectly ok others love what I find boring, and nothing unusual about it, because? YMMV.

They are clearly still setting up whats to come. The better the setup, the bigger the payoff. This isnt transformers. Try to exercise PATIENCE.

They are setting up the movies. I know what’s coming. I just don’t think it is must see television. It’s only 20 minute episodes so it is not hard to watch. I might just wait until the season finale and just watch it all at once.

Not always. often the build up is so big that the pay off can't always match it.

I have a feeling Wanda is slowly turning evil and will be the villain in the next Doctor Strange movie.

 

[GuestStar2004]

Maybe Multiverse of Madness will end up another Civil War type movie.

Who is going to side with Wanda?

Who is going to side with Wanda?

Who ever feels sorry for her i guess. whats driving her is tragic circumstances after all. oh and whoever from the multiverse she gets on her team .

To do another civil war would certainly be a way to juggle all the multiverse characters they have planned.

I hope not. It seems like a boring direction to take when this is Disney we’re talking about meaning she’ll ultimately comeback to the good side if she can really get Vision back. I’d rather have her become the full Scarlet Witch and join forces with Strange to fight a bigger enemy (ala Thor: Ragnarok).

 

[Kev4000]

Wanda turning evil in her own series would be a huge disappointment for me. But I doubt it will happen, because what should they show us in the final episodes?

Why do so many people want the movies/shows to follow the comics? Just because Wanda and Pietro committed evil acts in the comic books, doesn't mean they should on the big and small screens. I don't get it.

I have no strong feelings on this Wanda/Pietro discussion whatsoever, but as a general answer to this question: for the same reason people like to see their favorite books adapted into movies/TV - because they read something and thought, "this would be cool to see onscreen." It's fun to see something you read and loved translated into live-action especially, imo.

Oh, I totally understand and respect your point of view. And it definitely has its merits. I just think that every movie/television adaptation of ANY kind of work will inevitably make changes and alterations to the characters and storylines. That's the fun and interesting part of adaptations in my opinion. I have no problem with people enjoying their comic books. Those stories are canon as long as they are not retconned in the books. I just don't get why people want to change already established facts in the movies/shows SOLELY in order to line them up with the source material (even if that means making things more confusing and convoluted in the movies/shows). Comics are already a confusing mess in regards to retcons and continuity (and some of the things that happen in them are just downright strange and unpalatable to viewers who merely want to have a good time). I have no desire seeing the MCU and the DCEU inheriting those problems. Just as long as the movies/shows maintain the spirit of the comic books, I'm okay with changes.

Yeah I prefer a new title. Than season 2, 3, etc.

Too many people fetishize "accuracy", presumably on the principle that the highest good a comic book movie can achieve is to be as much like the comics as possible, even to the point of mimicking their biggest flaws, mistakes, and terrible ideas. Combine that with a latent hostility to the concept of heroes being heroic, and bam, bobs your uncle. Wanda turning evil is both staying "true" to the comics *and* is edgy and mature/juvenile.

Now, on a personal level, I hated House of M and Disassembled. And I always hated that all of it was triggered by The Wasp using Bendis-speak while bantering with Wanda about how she thought she was knocked up by Hawkeye.

Then they immediately reformed the Avengers as the New Avengers with freaking Spider-Man and Wolverine.

And the reason I didn't like those stories is because the lengths Wanda went to in those stories were out of character for me.

What we're seeing here so far doesn't feel out of character.

Iron Man also acted out of character in Civil War and became practically a villain and hated by readers. Maybe Feige won't go the comic route with Wanda just like he hasn't ruined Stark either. Also Hank Pym became more of an abuser in the Ultimates but they've avoided all of that too. So here's hoping they don't ruin Wanda especially since Lizzie Olsen has lots of fans and is far more interesting to watch than ScarJo.

Everyone acted out of character in the Civil War comic.

If anything, Tony was being more rational and justified in the movie version of Civil War, while I thought Cap was being out of line and in the wrong. But while they did Civil War, they completely changed everything about the story.

Not to mention, Cap keeping it a secret that Tony's parents were murdered by HYDRA was pretty bad. Especially considering he and Howard were friends.

Let's be honest, a lot of comic book stories are made to create artificial "drama" in order to drive up interest amongst readers in incredibly superficial ways. DECADES of character history can freely be ignored. I'm STILL salty about what Marvel Comics did to Wanda, Quicksilver and Vision over the years. They're practically now irrelevant in the comics, because writers and editors at Marvel "hate" them. Marvel Studios are FINALLY fixing the errors of the comics division, and people now want to bring those mistakes to the movies/shows?! I'm NOT okay with Wanda being retconned into being Magneto's daughter. I'm NOT okay with Vision's origins being changed into making him a duplicate of Wonder Man. Just to make their origins "comic book accurate." Both their origin stories are fine the way they are. Bring on the nerd rage I say.

I will say that I do not like all adaptations made by the movies. I think it was a grave error to turn Superman and Batman into murderers and have them commit crimes against humanity in their films. And that was done to make them "edgelordy" for no good reason. And the general public rightly rejected those characterizations.
