Dude when you brought up why Vision’s corpse wasn’t in possession on the Avengers or Wakanda I was like “THANK YOU!” I thought I was the only one who noticed that
@@captainobvious90 if the SHIELD didn’t belong to the US Government along with technically every ounce of Vibranium on foreign soil, why would Vision(someone comprised of stolen Vibranium) be the exception? He died in Wakanda for fucks sake. Why would none of the Avengers in the past 5 years not question the whereabouts of the body of one of there strongest allies? Why didn’t big tech Stark check it out and why didn’t Wakanda bother taking it. That is a major plot hole that only serves to make me think that no one even cares in the end. I also agree on the inconsistency of Jimmy Woo’s character
In my opinion I would have to say that when saddle snapped he cut everything on the planet no not even the planet the entire universe in half they were understaffed and under heroed and why the Chris would wakanda want something like this when they have people that are proud to lose their message of wakanda and black power if that isn't enough you can also say that they have to finalize things about this because this is previously owned by Stark and was helped and created by hulk or / banner they would have to go through millions of things before they even got to touch or lay a finger on vision which leads back to the original avengers who had them in the first place taking him back To their base and you can also see in the 5-year jump that they hadn't truly been well together so they most likely did like a funeral or something for vision and all those that died and then vision was taken from his rightful place of burial after everybody came back and everything that was finalized and was thin deconstructed and that is the point where Wanda came in because she figured out that he was not there most likely threw her powers or from one of the other avengers telling her leading to the events of One division yes that is confusing but it's the only thing that actually makes freaking sense right now cuz honestly I can fully agree with you I'm just trying to make this make sense for everybody else I can give two craps about this right now I honestly want to go to bed which I will be doing right now after I watch this video hehehehe
How tf did Sword get the body of Vision if in Infinity war he was killed in Wakanda , when Wakanda is a closed territory ? Did they auction it out ? Tf ?
@@kin-3877 yes but do you really think Wankandan people and their kingdom would really give a vibranium induced super human synthezoid to a government funded shield side department ? Yeah I don’t think so . That plot is just dumb .
@@kin-3877 i mean, since when does 'opened borders' mean surrendering incredibly valuable and potentially dangerous military technology to clandestine organizations run by a government with a history of letting such organizations go rogue?
Wasn't it confirmed several times that world governments didn't really exist or borders during the 5 years? Otherwise the entire plot of The Falcon and Winter Soldier had nothing to it then if it didn't happen? They probably had FAR more things to do other than worry about whether Vision was fine considering half of the world just died. As well it was most likely Fury had him taken.
Fuck me that show is gold. I understand why they did it, but the nerf Matt got in season 3 is literally my only complaint about that show. Probably the one really good marvel show we'll ever get.
@@defenderofminorities3056 yeah. Literally the first fight of the show he's bouncing his baton off a shipping container and hitting a guy. In season 2 when we're introduced to Electra, he catches a knife thrown at him from her when he didn't even know she was in his apartment. Throughout the first and second season he repeatedly shows that due to his sonar like sight, he can calculate where he needs to throw stuff to get it to ricochet and hit a target, and the ability to catch or dodge things thrown at him. And then in season 3 when he's fighting bullseye, he can't catch shit. Now, like I said I understand why they did it. They had to make bullseye a real threat. And Matt was never on the same level as him either. But once he gets his abilities back it's pretty much shown that he's back to 100%. Except he can no longer catch things thrown at him or ricochet things. Except when he catches the baton in the first office fight with bullseye.
@@pewpewpewpew3229 Disney wanted to get the netflix marvel shows away from the brand since they aren’t family friendly enough, so they cancelled all the netflix marvel shows, saddest day of my life it was.
Scarlet Witch is a glass cannon, a glass cannon refers to a character that has remarkable offensive abilities with terrible defense. Wanda’s powers are far beyond than most but at the same time she can be killed by just a random civilian with a gun. She was subdued by Hawkeye in Age of Ultron before she could even do anything to him. War Machine used a mini sonic canon on her and she was crying in pain, he could've launched a missile on her from his other hand if he wanted and she would be dead. Yes, she overpowered a no stone Thanos but Thanos is literally all physical without stones, he doesn't have any weapons that shoot something, he’s just a more powerful Hulk. If she does the same to lets say War Machine, she pulls him up in the air, there's nothing stopping War Machine to kill her using his shoulder gun. Also fun fact that most people haven't noticed in MCU yet, Scarlet Witch is completely featless against people that can fly.
@@notsocaringwolf.3763 the problem is with qs he has very few weaknesses the only way to beat him is to catch him off guard (or nerf him to the point he cant dodge bullets) he can be hurt yes but his speed makes it very hard TO hurt him he is only a glass cannon when u nerf his intelligence and speed
@@TSH425 Just like Wanda, getting outsmarted is also his weakness. In fact, fighting Wanda in hand-to-hand combat is an easy win for her, unless if you can find a way to outsmart her like with Hawkeye or if you have a projectile weapon. Quicksilver on the other hand, I’m pretty sure that landmines can easily stop him since bullets can kill him.
@@notsocaringwolf.3763 uh that's nerfed qs a qs with the same speed as the one in xmen has close to no weakness he was able to stop bullets and disarm multiple opponents in a small space and was able to save a whole school from an explosion that qs would not be affected by land mines they would not be able to activate fast enough to hit him
"Why doesn't Wanda just use magic to give all the Avengers super-speed?" is going to become the new "Why doesn't Tony just give everybody Iron Man suits" of the MCU - I can feel it.
Well, we don't know yet if she can cast permanent stuff like that outside of the fake reality she created in the show. Also, if she can, would she want everyone running around with superspeed?
At least with Tony the excuse is that the other people felt more comfortable fighting with out the suits, as shown with Tony fighting Cap and Bucky he isn't as agile as they are in tight spaces leaving him open to getting beat down on when facing opponents with similar or greater strength to him but aren't locked in a heavy metal suit. The people who do get suits are people that normally can't fight at that level or would be hopelessly outmatched otherwise. Hawkeye is a sniper so he doesn't really need a suit when he doesn't miss anyway, sure he uses a bow but he fights at range because you would be stupid to go up to some one with a bow and try and get into a fist fight with them if you didn't have to *COUGH* ARROWVERSE! *COUGH* . Natasha is a spy, it's pretty obvious why she wouldn't use a suit ether as it goes against her skill set almost entirely, now a vibranium suit like Black Panther has would fit her better but that's asking Wakanda for a gift when they are only paper thin allies and still don't entirely trust the Avengers seeing as they both put in a fail safe for detaching Buckies arm and the guards all widely know about it as if they were trained before hand how to remove it specifically if he turned on them one day. Scarlet witch on the other hand should just give everyone super speed, as it was shown there is no tactical downside to having it as speed is relative to the user. Black Widow would still be Black Widow but on fast forward, Captain America would make a literal smear of the American flag as he runs and punches Nazi's in the face at record speeds, hell the only one it doesn't do much for is Hawkeye since he could run and stab his arrows into people faster then it would take for him to shoot them with a gun making him just basically a copy of Quick Silver. And the Hulk? Ya no, there is no threat in the Multiverse that is ready for a Hulk that is also a speedster.
I feel like you'd be a good person to have look over stories to make sure they're consistent and make sense before publishing them. You have a good eye for catching those sorts of things and could be really helpful in a drafting process. I've been digging into a few of your videos lately and I really like your breakdowns of The Flash. Keep up the good work, man!
Shit, the entire netflix universe. Luke Cage and Iron Fist had improvements in S2. The Punishers is it's own gem. And even JJ has it's perks. Overall they established a good street level universe for fans to follow that spanned over a number of years in the same world as the MCU movies. But what do they do? Axe it all. And what do we get? Some of the most hit and miss shows on Disney+. Hell yeah I'm a salty ass fan because it was fucking annoying watching my (and many others) favorite shows get shot in the back of the head one at a time.
Why does vision just look like an android when they're taking him apart? Wasn't the whole point of Ultron creating him that he was basically an organic being with vibranium infused into its cells? They should be dissecting a metal human... or failing to dissect him since vibranium is virtually indestructible.
My honest-to-God interpretation after watching the show: Agatha was an invention of Wanda's subconscious. Wanda needed a villain to scapegoat her self-doubt onto and ease her cognitive dissonance. Agatha appeared at exactly the right time, when Wanda's psyche was starting to crack apart. She explains away all of the shortcomings that allowed Wanda's hex to fail. She even has her own theme music!
Also, my reading is that Monica *was* mind controlled until Wanda gave birth and mentioned something about having a twin. That reminded Monica about Ultron, something from outside the hex, and that enabled her mind to break out. Presumably you could break any of the hexed people free of mind control at least temporarily by talking to them about their real lives.
Their bodies are only physically controlled, not their minds. This is pretty clearly demonstrated by the woman forced to repeat an NPC action with tears streaming down her face
@@TheLewistownTrainspotter8102 And? They really seem like Hero Antagonists, not villains. Wanda is doing something incredibly evil and everyone just makes excuses for her.
Tbh I didn't react to this, I didn't and never cared for X-Men quick silver so I just thought it was a funny joke that they brought the actor into here. I never was mad at it like 99% of viewers
I swear 90% of the reviews are just Disney employee masking their agenda and/or damage control when their shitty scripts got exposed. There's not a single redeeming quality about any of this Marvel Phase 4. It's pure shit.
@@M419.99 I think it's just people who turn off their brain and have fun. There is a lot to criticize, but people have an automatic connection to new Marvel content because of the relationship the previous content has made. While it shows a certain lack of intellect that people consider these flawed shows flawless, it shows an even greater lack of intellect that you can't understand how people enjoy it. Personally, I'm extremely critical of everything I watch, but Marvel production quality and the acting is good enough that despite the flaws, I enjoy it as something to watch with my wife. Be critical, but don't be extreme.
Why am I not surprised to see Kevin "the hack" Smith there in the crowd clapping about subverting out expectations. He later did the same by making a He-Man show without He-Man, and was surprised how it was downvoted to oblivion.
@@johnnyfroggo7361 It's good, as a TVshow to watch during dinner. Certainly not as a source of long lasting amazement, logically consistent speculation or philosophical debates, despite the hefty budget other better shows lacked. It's good, but if it keeps going like the first season, not legendary.
Mild take. I feel the show would have been exponentially cooler if the show almost entirely took place in the town, and we incrementally learned what was happening ARG style. When I was watching it with my roommates, we usually checked out at the MARVEL-y parts, and that's why the show got really boring for us after the fourth episode. Wouldn't it have been cooler to keep the rules of the the sitcom going when all that crazy Rune stuff was happening? Imagine the whole show takes the tone of M*A*S*H or something, and they bust out some real heartfelt emotions from the townsfolk, but it's still a sitcom. That would have been incredible. But no one would like it because if explosions, sexual tension, or crappy jokes aren't happening every three minutes, the average Marvel viewer would probably just check out.
Can even keep agatha as the main antagonist, she infiltrates the town and slowly pulls wandas fantasy apart. All the while keeping it in line with the sitcom setting.
This is exactly my feelings on the show. At first it felt like the first season of LOST, where it seems packed with dense mystery and easter eggs, only for them to totally trash it all so we can once again have a punching battle in the sky. Not only that, they basically turned all the mysteries into jokes that meant nothing (like Ralph), and consolidated every bad thing into being Agatha's doing so that instead of solving anything, Wanda just has to beat up a supervillain. Such a letdown.
So you think the show would be exponentially cooler if it was exactly what we got. Also, you seem adamant to prove you’ve never watched an MCU production, nor do you understand Marvel viewers. Because no. They don’t check out if explosions, sexual tension, or crappy jokes aren’t happening every three minutes. Because no literally no Marvel production has these qualities.
This is why I hate timeskips. For me, even if the results of the timeskip makes sense, it ruins any buildup and attachment I’d have for a character’s growth. That’s part of the reason why I thought SnK/AoT peaked at the RtS arc for example. As wonderfully written as the War for Paradis arc was, the timeskip made the later 40% of the series feel like a sequel series revival that occurs after a book or show is canceled, rather than the next arcs in that same series. Same applies to IW/Endgame and its consequences to WandaVision. I understand it’s film and you can’t exactly pick up where you left off like you can in literature or animation, but there was a set flow of time between each film’s release to accommodate for that, so it never felt completely offputting. Since the time between movie releases was so jam-packed, times between main character arcs never exceeded that of a year and a half. Now take Endgame, and we see these incredible jumps in character that, while totally on course for the direction said character was going, we never get to see that journey over the course of the 5 years. While not that huge of an issue with respect to WandaVision on its own, the fact that there’s little to no talk about the pure shock and impact 5 years passing would have on someone is baffling to me. Wanda lost Vision, and the friends she knew that survived the snap now have gone YEARS without her, moving on and getting on with their lives. Besides Vision, they’d be the only people she could count on, but now half of them are either strangers now or fucking gone. I’d expect that to contribute to her trauma, or hell, at least show her the life she could have had if she was given the opportunity to properly grieve, but somehow that particular consequence of the timeskip isn’t handled? We get more of it in Falcon and the Winter Soldier with regards to residence/housing and the changing world politics, but somehow the emotional shock of a timeskip in which a snapped person would go through isn’t talked about? Despite being a comic relief character, Scott Lang is the only one who gets this moment due to his relationship with his daughter. I honestly wish we got more scenes dealing with the shock of seeing how snapped characters reacted to the world being so different, because to us, we are in the same position as them. Letting us latch on to these characters who have to deal with the rapid changes in development of their friends and family would have made the timeskip feel more meaningful and consequential, you know? We’d be desperately trying to pick up where we left off with characters the same time the snapped ones would, which would make the shock feel ever so more real, and would honestly justify the off-screen development since it would actually serve a purpose… Also, if the mental effects of the hex can be undone by a non-real Vision via her connection to the mind stone, then isn’t it possible for the hex to exist WITHOUT the mind control and voices? At that point, it would simply just be a barrier that allows her family to exist within. If she has full control now, I see no reason why she can’t have her cake and eat it too in this case. The only issue would be the act of repeatedly crossing the barrier causing fucking powers lmao
I'm not going to mention anything about your talk of the MCU's timeskip, but I disagree that timeskips in general are bad. The point of timeskips is to bring the story to a new point in time (duh), where the next interesting events happen. It can be used for a plethora of reasons, it can be used to create mystery, intrigue, to show the longer term consequences of a story beat, and many other things. I'd especially disagree with criticism of AOT's timeskip, but I could ramble about how much I love AOT for hours. So if you want to discuss, I'm willing to.
@@enotsnavdier6867 If you want to, by all means! The reason I dislike time-skips is because I personally like to see events naturally develop. In the case of AOT, it’s a double edged sword (I also love it to death). The War for Paradis was excellently done, and like you said, there was HUGE intrigue regarding things like Eren’s changes. With that said, however, there were huge character moments that I wanted to see on-panel that were only barely covered via flashbacks, but a lot of it felt empty to me because the results of those moments were already established and showcased. For example, with the Nicolo and Sasha flashbacks, there’s no buildup to the audience, as she’s already dead, so it makes it hard for me to care about their growing friendship/romance when I already know where it ends. On a reread it’s not so bad, but it’s a personal preference of mine that I personally cannot stand in the slightest. If you enjoy it, that’s great, and I know I’m in the minority for that opinion, but I’m big on the flow of events being consistent, which is where I take issue. It’s not a “criticism” per say, as there’s nothing objectively wrong with them, it’s just a narrative device I strongly dislike. The smaller moments are the ones I tend to like more haha
yet they bash superman from man of steel for hurtig innocents while zod was the one who caused collateral damage in metropolis and wanted to kill humans one by one . these mcu stans are douchebags
The High Evolutionary has entered the chat, In all seriousness though, for someone who started out as a hero, she sure is a bitch nowadays, character assassination at it’s finest
Although I still like the show, yea, it has problems. Same with Falcon and Winter Soldier really. The best part of Wandavision was mostly the sitcom stuff, when it’s back to the main plot however, it stumbles.
kind of current Marvel in a nutshell, isn't it? They come up with a kernel of a gimmick (the sitcom stuff, the buddy cop idea of falcon and winter soldier, the multiverse stuff in Loki).... but then it all goes off the rails when the plot is pushed to the backround because they have to have a certain number of fights scenes, a clunky message for what they think the target audience wants to hear, and setting up the next property Disney has the exact same blue print for.... it's really no surprise good writers want nothing to do with this franchise anymore
@@domg0714 I enjoyed it also,though after watching it,it seemed like it's nothing more than extended prologue for Dr. Strange. Still,i'll take it. Universe is already broken with End Game,so they might as well go all in with the crazy stuff. And seems to me by the road map,that it is going to be an acid trip.
24:04 the bullet was also at Monicas eye level and the bullet was going straight so it would not be able to hit Billy which means that the bullet somehow curved after it went past her
I was wrong. I spent a lot of time trying my best to stay in a mentality that says this show is good. I wasn’t defending Wanda, but I was trying to say that people were putting too much blame on her saying Wanda was unaware of the Hex. All of that goes away with one scene. In episode 5, she leaves the Hex, fully aware she took a town hostage and threatens Hayward and says Westview is her home. Ok, so she’s just a psychopath then. Wanda was probably my one mu favorite characters before Phase 4. I was a stupid MCU fanboy, but now I realise, Phase 4 really sucks. The only things I liked were Moon Knight and No Way Home. This video also helped me realise WandaVision sucks, so thanks a lot. Frankly, I love this channel and I’m so glad I stumbled upon it. Subscribed.
I found you when EFAP shouted you out, your content is fantastic, your sub and viewer count is criminally low. I watch these shows and feel all of the issues in them, but articulating exactly what they are gives me trouble. Watching content like this is incredibly cathartic to me. Keep doing what you're doing dude.
I think the biggest problem with Wandavision was the insistence of sticking with the traditional good guy, bad guy story. I originally thaught it was going to lean harder on Wanda accidently trapping herself inside her own spell. It was kinda disappointing when they introduced the Agatha Harkness plot.
That isn't exactly true though. The existing shows were not, ultimately, something Marvel Studios was ALLOWED to keep making at that time. Odds are the shows will come back in less than three years
I do writing projects in my free time, and I hope to get them published someday. When I am struggling with a scene I try to think like one of these reviews, and look for problems. Sometimes I have to rework the entire story because one scene or plot device doesn't work. It's hard to start over, but every time I write a new draft the story improves drastically. I think a lot of half-baked shows are bad because the writers didn't push themselves to make the script as good as it could be. They thought up the plot, and they wrote scenes that were good enough for what they wanted.
It's very important to have what you write be believable for the setting. I'm glad that you are taking your time thinking about what you write. Keep up the good work.
I do that do, and I'm terrible at making superpowers so they're often too weak or too OP and have to rewrite my story *SEVERAL* times since my MC either solos everyone and everything or gets backhanded into a coffin half way through. So few of my ideas actually make sense that it's frustrating 😭 (but also satisfying to give my story all the care it needs)
Why is Dr. Strange not involved in any of this? He pulled Thor and Loki aside for just showing up in Thor Ragnarok, they didn't even do anything yet. But Wanda does all this horrifying stuff and there's crickets. Isn't it his job to protect reality from dangerous magic users like her?
@@jimmyvanilla5285 because it's his job to protect reality? And there's this reality warping lady who is enslaving an entire town? What is not to understand about that?
I can answer at least one of these questions. The Darkhold isn't just a book _about_ magic; the book itself is magical. One of its magical properties is that it presents its contents in the reader's native language, framed in a context the reader can most readily understand.
@GodOfEbic Oh wait, I know this one. Grief isn't a good plot device specifically *because* it can resurface at any time. It can't be resolved in any way that has permanence or cathartic meaning. In technical terms, that makes it a fantastic supporting characteristic, but not something that can drive a plot unless you are particularly clever about it. If a character can't get a handle on their grief, it makes them unstable. Like you said, no one said she was sane. Except Monica, Vision, and everyone else who has a vested interest in her. By looking to her for decisions, they all demonstrate perceiving her to be the focal point in charge. This person wracked with grief to the point of mind controlling an entire town and sociopathic enough to believe she is giving up something comparable to their freedom when she finally stops. It's a bizarre attempt at humanizing a character who literally de-humanized a town. Grief can resurface at any time? Cool, so Scarlet Witch can go Hex a different town, or commit a similar atrocity, regardless of how far she progresses in her emotional development. That is why grief doesn't work as a major plot device. At least, it wouldn't if WandaVision were about Wanda becoming a hero and learning to live with her grief. If it's about her becoming a villain, succumbing to grief and dark remembrance of powers better left lost, then I can get behind that. Doesn't change the fact that the writing throughout that show was AWFUL and that the writers for the movies these days lean heavily on brand recognition and CGI rather than quality storycraft.
@@hyaphire4680 this. I actually had hopes for Wandavision, it was something me and a friend watch partied but never finished. Then I heard of the ending and immediately had a double take moment.
@@hyaphire4680 I beg to differ. Let me make one thing clear. I'm not defending the show. I agree with your criticisms of the show. But, I disagree with your point that grief is a compelling motive for a character and story to take place - many stories have proven themselves capable of being great by using it as a focus in some form or another. That this show failed to use it correctly, does not make grief a terrible plot point. Again. I'm not arguing against this show being terrible. I'm arguing against your dismissal of grief and the relapse of succumbing to it being a terrible plot point.
I kinda watched this with the assumption that Wanda doesn’t care about being a hero anymore, she just wants her “perfect life”, which excused the actual-torture she did in my mind (from a plothole perspective). I just hope this actually carries over and she’s portrayed as a mentally unhinged person in the sequels, and doesn’t try to use this ending as a “she was bad but now she’s good” play
She can just walk around Shield because she and most of all the avengers received pardons from the US Government. Sharon Carter did not get a pardon though and at the end of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, we see her get her pardon like the rest of the Avengers. The accords might still be in place but that shouldn't limit where she can or can't walk. It just gave the United Nations control of the Avengers as they are too powerful to be left unsupervised and able to do whatever they please.
@@swagnostic132 therin lies the issue with that point. I assumed that they would have been given pardons. But they never mention this until a throwaway line in falcon and winter soldier. They really did just kind of forget that civil war happened.
@@AnimatedTerror exactly. They never explain such a thing within the story it should've been explained in. Wanda puts the hex up a couple weeks after everyone gets snapped back and falcon is a couple months. No one questions the poor execution at this point because the directors hand wave things with "explanaitions" after the fact which have been deemed as being good enough.
Jac Schaefer had a different explanation for Fietro-they wanted to play with the idea that at a stage of grief one has anxieties of forgetting the face of their lost loved one. They wanted to bring Pietro back, but with a different face (not Aaron Taylor Johnson), to add to wanda’s desperation to have her loved ones back. But using a random guy wouldn’t be enjoyable for e audience bc it’d obviously be a fake pietro or a ploy. So they used Evan Peters because he isn’t obviously fake to the audience. Again, the identity of pietro is directly linked to the Agatha reveal, so his reveal was supposed to enhance the Agatha reveal and answer some questions.
@@jeffboy4231 plus, the description subtitles for deaf people said "Fox's Quicksilver" or something like that, they really jumped the gun on that, if that was the idea it got completely lost in translation because of the timing and us knowing he's actually Quicksilver too.
I think Pietro gained super speed because of Wanda, not Agatha. Pietro wasn’t shown using super speed until after he was introduced to Wanda as the real Pietro. Wanda is actively altering reality so if she perceived Pietro as the real one, then I suppose he would be altered physically to fit that image. Not that this guess is true or means anything since they failed to explain it in the show.
Even if that was the case it wouldn’t make sense for him to know how to use super speed as soon as he got it and it’s not as if he had implanted memories either. He knew basic information on how Peitro died and most flashbacks where events that Wanda couldn’t recall which means he was lying.
As for shooting the gap between two illusory children, I can relate. Whenever I get overwhelmed in an FPS, I tend to shoot at the center of a group of enemies, so I often end up shooting into empty space. But yeah, this did have some interesting ideas, but it doesn't sound like the best Star Trek: The Next Generation episode
"Why are they running?" Been told with a straight face while a witch battle is happening right besides them. Shouldnt people run when a meta human battle is happening like, 10 feet from them?
Never been into the MCU much (and I especially avoided age of ultron) so learning Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver aren't just Magnetro's children and mutants is already a major breach in my understanding of Marvel. Disney really should have just used the infinity gauntlets to put things back "right but a little different" and reset the continuity so it makes sense in line with Marvel (including mutants, the X-gene, and etc after buying Fox). Edit: You joke, but 24:50 actually happens in DC comics.
Let me remind you that Pietro was already shat on 2 times. They kill him in the first movie he appears with almost no character development done and then they use him as a d**k joke in Wandavision. A good classic Marvel character getting not a bit of the respect he deserves. I truly thought after Age of Ultron Wanda would turn on the team by stealing the time stone and going back in time to ressurect Pietro. To good to be true I guess.
The worst part is since none of this is real Wanda can literally just say "oh ok" move to the middle of nowhere and create her own reality again. NOTHING is stopping her from doing that. Everyone had no problem with her play acting and deluding herself it was the fact she was using other people to do it.
Thanks for this vid. I honestly was mixed on Wanda's decisions because despite her suffering she was mentally enslaving people and they were in pain, but for some reason afterwards I "understood". I think what elevated my decision was the manipulation the show does to make Wanda seem innocent. I.e., the slow-sappy music, the crappy inspirational quotes from Monica, Vision and others, how they flanderized the military guy, the Asian CIA dude, and making the agents and civilians as random stock NPCs. Everything was changed to make Wanda look good and I admit, as Wanda did to the people, they fooled me. I appreciate you bringing this into a new light and breaking the disillusion.
I don’t think there’s any inconsistency in Wanda’s feelings about Vision’s death. Just because someone acts fine one day doesn’t mean their emotions can’t spill over later. You have to keep in mind how much stuff happened to Wanda right after Vision died. His death was immediately followed by Thanos’s victory, which was immediately followed by Wanda being thrown five years until the future, which was immediately followed by some sorcerer calling her to help fight Thanos’s army over the ruins of the Avengers compound, which was followed by Iron Man dying. From her perspective that all happened in one day. It probably took her a while to process it all. Also, if she assumed that she would be able to give Vision a proper burial, then having that taken away from her, along with being reminded of the life they could have had together, could easily open up wounds she thought were healed. Also, this is the first time we’ve seen her alone after a life of seeing all the people closest to her die. When Pietro was killed, the Avengers took her in, and Vision comforted her. But this time the Avengers have seemingly all gone their separate ways, leaving Wanda to cope alone for the first time in her life. I think her outburst makes perfect sense under the circumstances. You say Monica was never brainwashed like the others, but I don’t think that’s true. I think she forgot who she was the instant she was sucked into the Hex and she only “woke up” after Wanda mentioned Pietro. This was the first time Wanda was shown talking about the past and I believe that in doing so, she momentarily loosened her grip on Monica’s mind, allowing her to also remember the past and break character. “WandaVision Writer Didn't Want Quicksilver Cameo to Feel Like a 'Prank'” She actually said that? That has to be a lie. Or else she is either really stupid or irresponsibly ignorant about the franchise she’s contributing to. There is no possible way she couldn’t have foreseen, or have pointed out to her, how people would interpret Fiektro’s casting. Anyway, the English audio description for the show explicitly refers to him as “the X-Men version of Quicksilver,” so other people on the crew clearly thought it was a prank. I would be fine with it personally, if it wasn’t for that audio description. Like, it’s ok if you misdirect us, but don’t just LIE to us.

I think Wanda also has super speed since she was able to catch Tommy while he was running. This was in episode 6, the Halloween episode. So that's 3 non-speedster speedsters. Good job show.
@@fleuttre4510 Reality warping isn't super speed. If you can warp reality to the point of being able to catch speedsters, there is almost nothing that can threaten you.
@@zydiko that's what I am saying scarlet witch is op also peitro and her son who can run very fast are not very very very fast also they were in her bubble so she could easily just warp reality to get super speed and super durability her powers are just if she wants or neeeds something it happens
3 non speedsters? If one of the 3 is Monica I disagree. See Captian Marvel can absorb energy that in the form of literal energy, cosmic energy, radiation and light...Monica can absorb all types of energy. Because Pietro was touching and pushing her around when he captured her she absorbed his power basically and that's how she got her speed
12:03 - 12:27 has been living in my head rent free for the past 5 days. he said that his favorite part about iron man 3 was too see the mandarin too be a fake.. the reason everybody hated that subversion is because, Trevor's Mandurian had the potential to be the best villian in the MCU by far, he was a terrorist hell bent on terrorizing he established dominance in every lesson he put on and when he killed the man waiting for the president to call, i swear that 15 secs of the phone ringing had to be the longest 15 secs of my life the first time watching it. he was so well written he had a plan he had a goal and literally nothing was stopping him he had a army be hind him backing him and was scaring the shit out of America and the leaders behind America. when he was in character he was the badest MF on screen and was amazing. he could have been a thanos level tier of villain then we got "pew ew don't go in there" as has walking away from the bathroom and we got a "mandarin" who was the opitamy of rage baby, and got killed in literally 2 mins by pepper fucking Potts. no it was not cool to have Trevor's mandarin be turned around like that it was fucking embarrassing. they actually sacrificed a top tier villian for a kernal of comedy.

I mean Wanda’s kids are pretty much just elaborate simulations that appear to be based off of her emotions so they could probably have any power she wanted
Tommy and Billy got their respective powers because they were created by Wanda, not biologically made when she and Vision consummated. She gave Tommy the speed to mirror Pietro's and Billy his powers to mirror hers.
Which makes sense until you realize according to Multiverse of Madness they're both REAL she just copy/pasted them from another universe where presumably they can also potentially have powers.
I complete agree. If Bob in movie 1 hates apples and in movie 2 likes apples a little bit while that change is logical not showing it is lazy, any character progression needs to be shown or hinted at no matter the time jump

21:02 This is really the only point I disagree with. I could be wrong, but I feel like if someone enslaved my entire town, then said "whoopsies I'll stop doing that now" then I wouldn't risk them changing their mind. Even if eventually the barrier was gonna drop fear is a powerful motivator for people to rub the heck away from the twisted TV land mess thay was their home, even if thinking rationally (which almost nobdy who just got out of weeks of being tortured with mind control probably would be) running wasn't needed. Also about the kids, who knows? Some of them might be running to their house to grab them before they go.
My question is, why do you even care about Captain Marvel in the first place? Have you watched Captain Marvel 1 or seen Endgame, cuz those two were it for me in terms of Captain Marvel. But also, Here we have Monica Rambeau (A great Character in the comics), A strong black woman, sympathizing with a Terrorist (Cuz let's face it, that's what Wanda is at this point), And, She and her dumbass are gonna be in a movie with Carol Danvers (Arguably the most boring character at this point), so I am good. ALSO...............!!! Just like with Falcon and the Winter Soldier, with Falcon (Another amazing character in the comics, Strong Black Man) Sympathizing with a Terrorist. I do not like this Trend Of Heroes sympathizing with Terrorists😑😑😑. Carol Danvers is gonna sympathize with a Terrorist in her movie too isnt she?

His sub count is actually rising quite quickly. I remember being his 200 something subscriber because it was like a month or so ago but now he has over 40 thousand.

The evil military man was my least favorite inconsistency because Narcy, Monika, Wu find out he's trying to get Vision because we're all told that Wanda stole Vision from STAR labs but it ends up he's had Vision's body the whole time.
@@OlderSnake you could use the same logic to "explain" away inconsistencies in an entire story. just write the worst story possible which makes literally no sense at all for 90 minutes and then in the last 10 seconds have someone wake up and say "wow what a weird dream!" sure it "technically" makes sense now, but is it good writing? no.
Agatha was a boring clishe c list villain: evil laugh, knows everything about the protagonist, and she had the most overused trait in the mcu: Being the evil version of the protagonist. Same powers, different colors (black and dark purple-ish) and bad, bad, bad girl
Wouldn't it have been better to have them pair off against each others rivals (Wanda against evil vision, vision against witch lady whose name I definitely remember)? Like, they probably know each others weaknesses better than their own. There's probably even a metaphor in there somewhere. Wanda even killed Vision once so she’s got experience on her side.
11:04 It could be argued that Wanda doesn't know how genetics work and the imaginary children she has with Vision (who has the mind stone in him) could be the cause of that kid's powers. I think the fact that the two boys aren't exactly real gives them room to have all kinds of powers as long as Wanda believes it to be true.
I find it interesting that wanda and pietro got powers that could’ve helped them with the stark bomb situation like pietro is obvious he got super speed so he could run away from the bomb and also run his family and others far away from the bomb while Wanda is kinda less obvious but she got magic which I guess that could’ve let her move the bomb further away or fly away or put a magic force field around it or something idk I just think it’s cool that the powers they got could’ve been used to help them and if they got those powers from the stone due to their sheer determination to get revenge at Stark I could also see those powers being suited to fight against Stark(also maybe pietro got super speed cuz he just wanted to run away and get away from the bomb while Wanda got more offensive powers because she acc wanted to confront it head on/confront Stark)
The only noticable problem I saw in this show is in the last episode when Rambo gets in front of the kids to protect them from the bullets... yet the bullets weren't even going to hit them anyways, she just gets in between them and takes the bullet.
What baffles me (aside from all of the points made in this video, that is) is that they couldn’t even use White Vision to resurrect Ultron. Given how fast and loose they played with Wanda’s powers, it wouldn’t be much of a stretch to suggest that Wanda’s wrath created a magical duplicate of Ultron to match the duplicate of Vision. (I realize this is not a great idea on its own and would be very hard to pull off in a satisfying way. However, it would at least introduce some tangible consequence that Wanda couldn’t simply handwave away or ignore.)
I agree with some of your points but there are a few I disagreed with. Firstly it's pretty obvious that Wanda has been pardoned from what happened thanks to her participating in the battle against Thanos, that didn't really need to get explained but it was anyway in falcon and the winter soldier made very clear. Wanda making those runes I see a lot of people misunderstanding it its not like she memorized it or made up her own runes. This goes to a fundemental misunderstanding with Wanda's abilities. You can kinda think of it as skipping the process kind of like the infinity stones to Ina sense. She doesn't have to actually think about how to do something she simply has to intend to do something. Same with expanding the hex its like an instinct if she wants to do something it happens without any effort on her part that is what makes her unique. Her magic works entirely on its own to achieve her desires. Although therein lies a few problems which comes down to her lack of knowledge concerning witchcraft. That is why she says she wants to understand the power and how to properly use it so she doesn't make the same mistakes she did in her original spell. As for the vision thing its a little ambiguous but I understand it as vision was deliberately broke apart to incite Wanda to reactivate him based on a theory by Hayward. If the deassembled him that many times they have sufficient knowledge to reassemble him efficiently also there is no reason why their technology would be inefficient. Nowhere in infinity war is it said that wakanda is the only place with the technology to remove the stone only that it is a place and captain America likely chose it for short notice and his personal connection to black panther who is literally the king and can get them help quickly.
I think that jimmy woo learning card tricks from Scott signifies him changing to understand the “hero’s” more, but yeah wtf he chill with lady enslaving town
My problem is nothing in Vision's body was giving him flight, and phasing. It was the mind stone. No amount of taking him apart will teach you how to make a machine phase through things magically like he does with the mind stone. And the beam for that matter was also produced by the mind stone, although you could say sword installed a beam into his head, but that just means government agencies now have access to stark level beam tech.
@@willow1601 that is confusing to me as well the only explanation I can give is that his body had been infused with the energy of the mind stone so much that the abilities are inherent to the body so long as it's powered by a similar enough energy in this case Wanda's magic. The same with the beam that appears of course its possible that they have advanced beam tech since S.W.O.R.D likely recovers various alien technologies.
@@lucianabrahams3743 I would prefer the writers coming up with different combat methods. Them beam is fine, but maybe a thruster for the flight, modular vibranium arm weapons or something. My whole problem with the "infused" explanation+ the memory restoration is no one needed to grieve for Vision when he died in Infinity War. And grief aside there was no reason they couldn't just remove the entire stone from his head killing him then destroying it immediately. He has super powers without the stone, and his memories are still intact without Shuri finishing her Vision fix. Essentially if I took your explanation and combined it with Wanda Vision's memory fix it makes the whole "we don't trade lives" conflict in Infinity War a waste of time.
2:30 Vision after Infinity War would be like Church in RVB season one. Vision: "Guys why is is my body still up here?!?!" The rest of the Avengers: "Well that's kind of thing about being dead your body doesn't really move around anymore." Vision: "Let me rephrase that. WHY HAVEN'T YOU BURIED ME YET?!?!
Dude when you brought up why Vision’s corpse wasn’t in possession on the Avengers or Wakanda I was like “THANK YOU!” I thought I was the only one who noticed that
Someone expertly stole him maybe lol, or the Accords' legal bullshit somehow got him into the hands of SWORDS
@@captainobvious90 if the SHIELD didn’t belong to the US Government along with technically every ounce of Vibranium on foreign soil, why would Vision(someone comprised of stolen Vibranium) be the exception? He died in Wakanda for fucks sake. Why would none of the Avengers in the past 5 years not question the whereabouts of the body of one of there strongest allies? Why didn’t big tech Stark check it out and why didn’t Wakanda bother taking it. That is a major plot hole that only serves to make me think that no one even cares in the end. I also agree on the inconsistency of Jimmy Woo’s character
My guess is the Avengers took him back home, and then the government took him back, or took him once Tony Stark passed on.
In my opinion I would have to say that when saddle snapped he cut everything on the planet no not even the planet the entire universe in half they were understaffed and under heroed and why the Chris would wakanda want something like this when they have people that are proud to lose their message of wakanda and black power if that isn't enough you can also say that they have to finalize things about this because this is previously owned by Stark and was helped and created by hulk or / banner they would have to go through millions of things before they even got to touch or lay a finger on vision which leads back to the original avengers who had them in the first place taking him back To their base and you can also see in the 5-year jump that they hadn't truly been well together so they most likely did like a funeral or something for vision and all those that died and then vision was taken from his rightful place of burial after everybody came back and everything that was finalized and was thin deconstructed and that is the point where Wanda came in because she figured out that he was not there most likely threw her powers or from one of the other avengers telling her leading to the events of One division yes that is confusing but it's the only thing that actually makes freaking sense right now cuz honestly I can fully agree with you I'm just trying to make this make sense for everybody else I can give two craps about this right now I honestly want to go to bed which I will be doing right now after I watch this video hehehehe

Fuck me that show is gold. I understand why they did it, but the nerf Matt got in season 3 is literally my only complaint about that show. Probably the one really good marvel show we'll ever get.
@@thecrazyslopoke nerf?
@@defenderofminorities3056 yeah. Literally the first fight of the show he's bouncing his baton off a shipping container and hitting a guy. In season 2 when we're introduced to Electra, he catches a knife thrown at him from her when he didn't even know she was in his apartment. Throughout the first and second season he repeatedly shows that due to his sonar like sight, he can calculate where he needs to throw stuff to get it to ricochet and hit a target, and the ability to catch or dodge things thrown at him. And then in season 3 when he's fighting bullseye, he can't catch shit. Now, like I said I understand why they did it. They had to make bullseye a real threat. And Matt was never on the same level as him either. But once he gets his abilities back it's pretty much shown that he's back to 100%. Except he can no longer catch things thrown at him or ricochet things. Except when he catches the baton in the first office fight with bullseye.

@monké So you'd like if the comment replaced killed with tortured. Much better?
Scarlet Witch is a glass cannon, a glass cannon refers to a character that has remarkable offensive abilities with terrible defense. Wanda’s powers are far beyond than most but at the same time she can be killed by just a random civilian with a gun. She was subdued by Hawkeye in Age of Ultron before she could even do anything to him. War Machine used a mini sonic canon on her and she was crying in pain, he could've launched a missile on her from his other hand if he wanted and she would be dead. Yes, she overpowered a no stone Thanos but Thanos is literally all physical without stones, he doesn't have any weapons that shoot something, he’s just a more powerful Hulk. If she does the same to lets say War Machine, she pulls him up in the air, there's nothing stopping War Machine to kill her using his shoulder gun. Also fun fact that most people haven't noticed in MCU yet, Scarlet Witch is completely featless against people that can fly.
To be fair she can alter reality now so it wouldn’t be so easy anymore
That goes the same for Quick Silver too. In fact, the guy can run really fast but isn’t bullet proof.
@@notsocaringwolf.3763 the problem is with qs he has very few weaknesses the only way to beat him is to catch him off guard (or nerf him to the point he cant dodge bullets) he can be hurt yes but his speed makes it very hard TO hurt him he is only a glass cannon when u nerf his intelligence and speed
@@TSH425 Just like Wanda, getting outsmarted is also his weakness. In fact, fighting Wanda in hand-to-hand combat is an easy win for her, unless if you can find a way to outsmart her like with Hawkeye or if you have a projectile weapon. Quicksilver on the other hand, I’m pretty sure that landmines can easily stop him since bullets can kill him.
@@notsocaringwolf.3763 uh that's nerfed qs a qs with the same speed as the one in xmen has close to no weakness he was able to stop bullets and disarm multiple opponents in a small space and was able to save a whole school from an explosion that qs would not be affected by land mines they would not be able to activate fast enough to hit him
The line "Nothing abstract stands when everything concrete is rubble" goes hard af
"Why doesn't Wanda just use magic to give all the Avengers super-speed?" is going to become the new "Why doesn't Tony just give everybody Iron Man suits" of the MCU - I can feel it.
Tony did want to give everyone a suit
Well, we don't know yet if she can cast permanent stuff like that outside of the fake reality she created in the show. Also, if she can, would she want everyone running around with superspeed?
A valid question. In truth none of this cape shit makes sense if you think about it for more than five seconds.
I don't think Thor or Natasha would really need a Suit.
Hulk is already strong enough....
But I got no excuse for Hawkeye and Cap.
At least with Tony the excuse is that the other people felt more comfortable fighting with out the suits, as shown with Tony fighting Cap and Bucky he isn't as agile as they are in tight spaces leaving him open to getting beat down on when facing opponents with similar or greater strength to him but aren't locked in a heavy metal suit. The people who do get suits are people that normally can't fight at that level or would be hopelessly outmatched otherwise. Hawkeye is a sniper so he doesn't really need a suit when he doesn't miss anyway, sure he uses a bow but he fights at range because you would be stupid to go up to some one with a bow and try and get into a fist fight with them if you didn't have to *COUGH* ARROWVERSE! *COUGH* .
Natasha is a spy, it's pretty obvious why she wouldn't use a suit ether as it goes against her skill set almost entirely, now a vibranium suit like Black Panther has would fit her better but that's asking Wakanda for a gift when they are only paper thin allies and still don't entirely trust the Avengers seeing as they both put in a fail safe for detaching Buckies arm and the guards all widely know about it as if they were trained before hand how to remove it specifically if he turned on them one day.
Scarlet witch on the other hand should just give everyone super speed, as it was shown there is no tactical downside to having it as speed is relative to the user. Black Widow would still be Black Widow but on fast forward, Captain America would make a literal smear of the American flag as he runs and punches Nazi's in the face at record speeds, hell the only one it doesn't do much for is Hawkeye since he could run and stab his arrows into people faster then it would take for him to shoot them with a gun making him just basically a copy of Quick Silver.
And the Hulk? Ya no, there is no threat in the Multiverse that is ready for a Hulk that is also a speedster.

Also, my reading is that Monica *was* mind controlled until Wanda gave birth and mentioned something about having a twin. That reminded Monica about Ultron, something from outside the hex, and that enabled her mind to break out. Presumably you could break any of the hexed people free of mind control at least temporarily by talking to them about their real lives.

Mild take. I feel the show would have been exponentially cooler if the show almost entirely took place in the town, and we incrementally learned what was happening ARG style. When I was watching it with my roommates, we usually checked out at the MARVEL-y parts, and that's why the show got really boring for us after the fourth episode.
Wouldn't it have been cooler to keep the rules of the the sitcom going when all that crazy Rune stuff was happening? Imagine the whole show takes the tone of M*A*S*H or something, and they bust out some real heartfelt emotions from the townsfolk, but it's still a sitcom. That would have been incredible. But no one would like it because if explosions, sexual tension, or crappy jokes aren't happening every three minutes, the average Marvel viewer would probably just check out.
Can even keep agatha as the main antagonist, she infiltrates the town and slowly pulls wandas fantasy apart.
All the while keeping it in line with the sitcom setting.
I agree they should’ve made like the 4th episode the last one or something that way we would have more mystery for it
This is exactly my feelings on the show. At first it felt like the first season of LOST, where it seems packed with dense mystery and easter eggs, only for them to totally trash it all so we can once again have a punching battle in the sky.
Not only that, they basically turned all the mysteries into jokes that meant nothing (like Ralph), and consolidated every bad thing into being Agatha's doing so that instead of solving anything, Wanda just has to beat up a supervillain. Such a letdown.
So you think the show would be exponentially cooler if it was exactly what we got.
Also, you seem adamant to prove you’ve never watched an MCU production, nor do you understand Marvel viewers.
Because no. They don’t check out if explosions, sexual tension, or crappy jokes aren’t happening every three minutes. Because no literally no Marvel production has these qualities.
@@dodojesus4529 That’s literally what the show is.
This is why I hate timeskips. For me, even if the results of the timeskip makes sense, it ruins any buildup and attachment I’d have for a character’s growth. That’s part of the reason why I thought SnK/AoT peaked at the RtS arc for example. As wonderfully written as the War for Paradis arc was, the timeskip made the later 40% of the series feel like a sequel series revival that occurs after a book or show is canceled, rather than the next arcs in that same series. Same applies to IW/Endgame and its consequences to WandaVision. I understand it’s film and you can’t exactly pick up where you left off like you can in literature or animation, but there was a set flow of time between each film’s release to accommodate for that, so it never felt completely offputting. Since the time between movie releases was so jam-packed, times between main character arcs never exceeded that of a year and a half. Now take Endgame, and we see these incredible jumps in character that, while totally on course for the direction said character was going, we never get to see that journey over the course of the 5 years. While not that huge of an issue with respect to WandaVision on its own, the fact that there’s little to no talk about the pure shock and impact 5 years passing would have on someone is baffling to me.
Wanda lost Vision, and the friends she knew that survived the snap now have gone YEARS without her, moving on and getting on with their lives. Besides Vision, they’d be the only people she could count on, but now half of them are either strangers now or fucking gone. I’d expect that to contribute to her trauma, or hell, at least show her the life she could have had if she was given the opportunity to properly grieve, but somehow that particular consequence of the timeskip isn’t handled? We get more of it in Falcon and the Winter Soldier with regards to residence/housing and the changing world politics, but somehow the emotional shock of a timeskip in which a snapped person would go through isn’t talked about? Despite being a comic relief character, Scott Lang is the only one who gets this moment due to his relationship with his daughter.
I honestly wish we got more scenes dealing with the shock of seeing how snapped characters reacted to the world being so different, because to us, we are in the same position as them. Letting us latch on to these characters who have to deal with the rapid changes in development of their friends and family would have made the timeskip feel more meaningful and consequential, you know? We’d be desperately trying to pick up where we left off with characters the same time the snapped ones would, which would make the shock feel ever so more real, and would honestly justify the off-screen development since it would actually serve a purpose…
Also, if the mental effects of the hex can be undone by a non-real Vision via her connection to the mind stone, then isn’t it possible for the hex to exist WITHOUT the mind control and voices? At that point, it would simply just be a barrier that allows her family to exist within. If she has full control now, I see no reason why she can’t have her cake and eat it too in this case. The only issue would be the act of repeatedly crossing the barrier causing fucking powers lmao
I usually hear “the five years could’ve been an MCU phase alone” and it’s too true. TONS of emotional development to explore.
I'm not going to mention anything about your talk of the MCU's timeskip, but I disagree that timeskips in general are bad. The point of timeskips is to bring the story to a new point in time (duh), where the next interesting events happen. It can be used for a plethora of reasons, it can be used to create mystery, intrigue, to show the longer term consequences of a story beat, and many other things.
I'd especially disagree with criticism of AOT's timeskip, but I could ramble about how much I love AOT for hours. So if you want to discuss, I'm willing to.
@@enotsnavdier6867 If you want to, by all means! The reason I dislike time-skips is because I personally like to see events naturally develop. In the case of AOT, it’s a double edged sword (I also love it to death). The War for Paradis was excellently done, and like you said, there was HUGE intrigue regarding things like Eren’s changes. With that said, however, there were huge character moments that I wanted to see on-panel that were only barely covered via flashbacks, but a lot of it felt empty to me because the results of those moments were already established and showcased. For example, with the Nicolo and Sasha flashbacks, there’s no buildup to the audience, as she’s already dead, so it makes it hard for me to care about their growing friendship/romance when I already know where it ends. On a reread it’s not so bad, but it’s a personal preference of mine that I personally cannot stand in the slightest. If you enjoy it, that’s great, and I know I’m in the minority for that opinion, but I’m big on the flow of events being consistent, which is where I take issue. It’s not a “criticism” per say, as there’s nothing objectively wrong with them, it’s just a narrative device I strongly dislike. The smaller moments are the ones I tend to like more haha
Thats alot of words homie
@@bertiecook959 you’re not wrong lmao. For a tl;dr, timeskips take away a lot of development, and that’s why I don’t like them lol

Although I still like the show, yea, it has problems. Same with Falcon and Winter Soldier really. The best part of Wandavision was mostly the sitcom stuff, when it’s back to the main plot however, it stumbles.
This is also my take
I agree. And same goes for Loki.
kind of current Marvel in a nutshell, isn't it?
They come up with a kernel of a gimmick (the sitcom stuff, the buddy cop idea of falcon and winter soldier, the multiverse stuff in Loki).... but then it all goes off the rails when the plot is pushed to the backround because they have to have a certain number of fights scenes, a clunky message for what they think the target audience wants to hear, and setting up the next property Disney has the exact same blue print for....
it's really no surprise good writers want nothing to do with this franchise anymore

I was wrong. I spent a lot of time trying my best to stay in a mentality that says this show is good. I wasn’t defending Wanda, but I was trying to say that people were putting too much blame on her saying Wanda was unaware of the Hex. All of that goes away with one scene. In episode 5, she leaves the Hex, fully aware she took a town hostage and threatens Hayward and says Westview is her home. Ok, so she’s just a psychopath then. Wanda was probably my one mu favorite characters before Phase 4. I was a stupid MCU fanboy, but now I realise, Phase 4 really sucks. The only things I liked were Moon Knight and No Way Home. This video also helped me realise WandaVision sucks, so thanks a lot. Frankly, I love this channel and I’m so glad I stumbled upon it. Subscribed.

I found you when EFAP shouted you out, your content is fantastic, your sub and viewer count is criminally low. I watch these shows and feel all of the issues in them, but articulating exactly what they are gives me trouble. Watching content like this is incredibly cathartic to me. Keep doing what you're doing dude.
I think the biggest problem with Wandavision was the insistence of sticking with the traditional good guy, bad guy story. I originally thaught it was going to lean harder on Wanda accidently trapping herself inside her own spell. It was kinda disappointing when they introduced the Agatha Harkness plot.
"Remember guys, this is what Daredevil was cancelled for" *Pain, agony, suffering even*
That isn't exactly true though. The existing shows were not, ultimately, something Marvel Studios was ALLOWED to keep making at that time. Odds are the shows will come back in less than three years
@@WarlordM everybody knows that but thanks for sharing your thoughts my guy
I do writing projects in my free time, and I hope to get them published someday. When I am struggling with a scene I try to think like one of these reviews, and look for problems. Sometimes I have to rework the entire story because one scene or plot device doesn't work. It's hard to start over, but every time I write a new draft the story improves drastically. I think a lot of half-baked shows are bad because the writers didn't push themselves to make the script as good as it could be. They thought up the plot, and they wrote scenes that were good enough for what they wanted.
It's very important to have what you write be believable for the setting. I'm glad that you are taking your time thinking about what you write. Keep up the good work.
I do that do, and I'm terrible at making superpowers so they're often too weak or too OP and have to rewrite my story *SEVERAL* times since my MC either solos everyone and everything or gets backhanded into a coffin half way through. So few of my ideas actually make sense that it's frustrating 😭 (but also satisfying to give my story all the care it needs)

Grief can resurface whether you've accepted it or just put on a brave face, so that wouldn't be anything but human.
Doesn't make it a good plot device
@GodOfEbic Any sane person wouldn't do the things Wanda did, grief or no grief.
@GodOfEbic Oh wait, I know this one.
Grief isn't a good plot device specifically *because* it can resurface at any time. It can't be resolved in any way that has permanence or cathartic meaning. In technical terms, that makes it a fantastic supporting characteristic, but not something that can drive a plot unless you are particularly clever about it.
If a character can't get a handle on their grief, it makes them unstable. Like you said, no one said she was sane. Except Monica, Vision, and everyone else who has a vested interest in her. By looking to her for decisions, they all demonstrate perceiving her to be the focal point in charge. This person wracked with grief to the point of mind controlling an entire town and sociopathic enough to believe she is giving up something comparable to their freedom when she finally stops.
It's a bizarre attempt at humanizing a character who literally de-humanized a town.
Grief can resurface at any time? Cool, so Scarlet Witch can go Hex a different town, or commit a similar atrocity, regardless of how far she progresses in her emotional development.
That is why grief doesn't work as a major plot device.
At least, it wouldn't if WandaVision were about Wanda becoming a hero and learning to live with her grief. If it's about her becoming a villain, succumbing to grief and dark remembrance of powers better left lost, then I can get behind that.
Doesn't change the fact that the writing throughout that show was AWFUL and that the writers for the movies these days lean heavily on brand recognition and CGI rather than quality storycraft.
@@hyaphire4680 this. I actually had hopes for Wandavision, it was something me and a friend watch partied but never finished. Then I heard of the ending and immediately had a double take moment.
@@hyaphire4680 I beg to differ.
Let me make one thing clear. I'm not defending the show. I agree with your criticisms of the show. But, I disagree with your point that grief is a compelling motive for a character and story to take place - many stories have proven themselves capable of being great by using it as a focus in some form or another.
That this show failed to use it correctly, does not make grief a terrible plot point.
Again. I'm not arguing against this show being terrible. I'm arguing against your dismissal of grief and the relapse of succumbing to it being a terrible plot point.
I kinda watched this with the assumption that Wanda doesn’t care about being a hero anymore, she just wants her “perfect life”, which excused the actual-torture she did in my mind (from a plothole perspective). I just hope this actually carries over and she’s portrayed as a mentally unhinged person in the sequels, and doesn’t try to use this ending as a “she was bad but now she’s good” play
She is going to be good only without the bad, mark my words.
It will be expanded in Dr strange
Multivers Of Madness:ask and you shall receive
You’re editing is really entertaining, and Southpaw recommend you, have a sub.
She can just walk around Shield because she and most of all the avengers received pardons from the US Government. Sharon Carter did not get a pardon though and at the end of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, we see her get her pardon like the rest of the Avengers. The accords might still be in place but that shouldn't limit where she can or can't walk. It just gave the United Nations control of the Avengers as they are too powerful to be left unsupervised and able to do whatever they please.
'Tell, don't show' was already good enough. Now we had to add 'assume, don't show'.
That's actually a good explanation
When were they given pardons if i may ask?
@@swagnostic132 therin lies the issue with that point. I assumed that they would have been given pardons. But they never mention this until a throwaway line in falcon and winter soldier.
They really did just kind of forget that civil war happened.
@@AnimatedTerror exactly. They never explain such a thing within the story it should've been explained in. Wanda puts the hex up a couple weeks after everyone gets snapped back and falcon is a couple months. No one questions the poor execution at this point because the directors hand wave things with "explanaitions" after the fact which have been deemed as being good enough.
23:14 The text at the bottom left corner suggests that Madvocate's shlong will have lots of papercuts as he has seen Multiverse of Madness.
That's... not how sandpaper works
Jac Schaefer had a different explanation for Fietro-they wanted to play with the idea that at a stage of grief one has anxieties of forgetting the face of their lost loved one. They wanted to bring Pietro back, but with a different face (not Aaron Taylor Johnson), to add to wanda’s desperation to have her loved ones back. But using a random guy wouldn’t be enjoyable for e audience bc it’d obviously be a fake pietro or a ploy. So they used Evan Peters because he isn’t obviously fake to the audience. Again, the identity of pietro is directly linked to the Agatha reveal, so his reveal was supposed to enhance the Agatha reveal and answer some questions.
Really smart
Well still a shit job when it was just too confusing especially when marvel is fucking preparing for the damn multiverse
@@jeffboy4231 plus, the description subtitles for deaf people said "Fox's Quicksilver" or something like that, they really jumped the gun on that, if that was the idea it got completely lost in translation because of the timing and us knowing he's actually Quicksilver too.

Instead, it just makes every character (except Darcy?) on the show look Stewwwwpid
I just hate that they turned Agatha Harkness into a mustached twirling villain whose sole purpose is "Unlimited Power!".
I think Pietro gained super speed because of Wanda, not Agatha. Pietro wasn’t shown using super speed until after he was introduced to Wanda as the real Pietro. Wanda is actively altering reality so if she perceived Pietro as the real one, then I suppose he would be altered physically to fit that image. Not that this guess is true or means anything since they failed to explain it in the show.
Even if that was the case it wouldn’t make sense for him to know how to use super speed as soon as he got it and it’s not as if he had implanted memories either. He knew basic information on how Peitro died and most flashbacks where events that Wanda couldn’t recall which means he was lying.
It’s going to be retconned that he was a mutant and so is Wanda.

The only critique I got Madvocate is that “neutralize” is a euphemism for kill in this case. People in the military use it all day time
Never been into the MCU much (and I especially avoided age of ultron) so learning Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver aren't just Magnetro's children and mutants is already a major breach in my understanding of Marvel. Disney really should have just used the infinity gauntlets to put things back "right but a little different" and reset the continuity so it makes sense in line with Marvel (including mutants, the X-gene, and etc after buying Fox).
Edit: You joke, but 24:50 actually happens in DC comics.
Let me remind you that Pietro was already shat on 2 times. They kill him in the first movie he appears with almost no character development done and then they use him as a d**k joke in Wandavision. A good classic Marvel character getting not a bit of the respect he deserves.
I truly thought after Age of Ultron Wanda would turn on the team by stealing the time stone and going back in time to ressurect Pietro. To good to be true I guess.

Multiverse of madness: I’m bout to ruin this this man’s whole career
The worst part is since none of this is real Wanda can literally just say "oh ok" move to the middle of nowhere and create her own reality again. NOTHING is stopping her from doing that. Everyone had no problem with her play acting and deluding herself it was the fact she was using other people to do it.
Thanks for this vid. I honestly was mixed on Wanda's decisions because despite her suffering she was mentally enslaving people and they were in pain, but for some reason afterwards I "understood".
I think what elevated my decision was the manipulation the show does to make Wanda seem innocent. I.e., the slow-sappy music, the crappy inspirational quotes from Monica, Vision and others, how they flanderized the military guy, the Asian CIA dude, and making the agents and civilians as random stock NPCs. Everything was changed to make Wanda look good and I admit, as Wanda did to the people, they fooled me.
I appreciate you bringing this into a new light and breaking the disillusion.
I don’t think there’s any inconsistency in Wanda’s feelings about Vision’s death. Just because someone acts fine one day doesn’t mean their emotions can’t spill over later. You have to keep in mind how much stuff happened to Wanda right after Vision died. His death was immediately followed by Thanos’s victory, which was immediately followed by Wanda being thrown five years until the future, which was immediately followed by some sorcerer calling her to help fight Thanos’s army over the ruins of the Avengers compound, which was followed by Iron Man dying. From her perspective that all happened in one day. It probably took her a while to process it all. Also, if she assumed that she would be able to give Vision a proper burial, then having that taken away from her, along with being reminded of the life they could have had together, could easily open up wounds she thought were healed. Also, this is the first time we’ve seen her alone after a life of seeing all the people closest to her die. When Pietro was killed, the Avengers took her in, and Vision comforted her. But this time the Avengers have seemingly all gone their separate ways, leaving Wanda to cope alone for the first time in her life. I think her outburst makes perfect sense under the circumstances.
You say Monica was never brainwashed like the others, but I don’t think that’s true. I think she forgot who she was the instant she was sucked into the Hex and she only “woke up” after Wanda mentioned Pietro. This was the first time Wanda was shown talking about the past and I believe that in doing so, she momentarily loosened her grip on Monica’s mind, allowing her to also remember the past and break character.
“WandaVision Writer Didn't Want Quicksilver Cameo to Feel Like a 'Prank'” She actually said that? That has to be a lie. Or else she is either really stupid or irresponsibly ignorant about the franchise she’s contributing to. There is no possible way she couldn’t have foreseen, or have pointed out to her, how people would interpret Fiektro’s casting. Anyway, the English audio description for the show explicitly refers to him as “the X-Men version of Quicksilver,” so other people on the crew clearly thought it was a prank. I would be fine with it personally, if it wasn’t for that audio description. Like, it’s ok if you misdirect us, but don’t just LIE to us.

But also, Here we have Monica Rambeau (A great Character in the comics), A strong black woman, sympathizing with a Terrorist (Cuz let's face it, that's what Wanda is at this point), And, She and her dumbass are gonna be in a movie with Carol Danvers (Arguably the most boring character at this point), so I am good. ALSO...............!!! Just like with Falcon and the Winter Soldier, with Falcon (Another amazing character in the comics, Strong Black Man) Sympathizing with a Terrorist. I do not like this Trend Of Heroes sympathizing with Terrorists😑😑😑. Carol Danvers is gonna sympathize with a Terrorist in her movie too isnt she?
@@Wolpher I thought it was just me thinking Cap was siding a terrorist and portraying John Walker as bad. LoL.
People defend it by saying it is comic accurate like it is an excuse for bad writing.
Im worried about Captain Marvel because the character is so OP that there is no threat and no tension thus no point
@@Wolpher Falcon just understand her
I like the actress of Wanda vison but don't like the actress of Captain marvel
Re watching this after MoM and lol " I don't understand this power but I will" proceeds to chase a kid across the multiverse for a chance to see kids that we still don't know if they are real or not.
Why do you have so less subscribers?
Your contents are really good.
Its cause his upload schedule is as consistent as the shows he reviews.
ehh
He actually has a nice sub account considering he only have 8 videos at this point. But, well deserved, non the less.
His sub count is actually rising quite quickly. I remember being his 200 something subscriber because it was like a month or so ago but now he has over 40 thousand. I feel he's gonna get to maybe 50k in a month and a half. He'd probably rise quicker if his upload schedule wasn't somehow less consistent than CW Flash's speed logic
Bro, your editing is god-tier
The evil military man was my least favorite inconsistency because Narcy, Monika, Wu find out he's trying to get Vision because we're all told that Wanda stole Vision from STAR labs but it ends up he's had Vision's body the whole time.
star???
@@ketchupfan4450 THERE IS NOWHERE TO RUN
@@cyangorilla Im dead for real.
32:50 erm actually, in Agents of Shield it was shown that the Darkhold presents it's writing in the language of the reader.
The inconsistencies with Billy and Tommy make some sense, as Wanda is doing it subconsciously, not knowing about her origins.
that doesnt make them "make sense." that's just an explanation that you can use to waive away the issue
@@yinnyonline It does make sense. I thought this was so obvious in the show you don't need to verbally say it. There is no issue here.
@@yinnyonline bruh even youtubers have some mistakes
@@OlderSnake you could use the same logic to "explain" away inconsistencies in an entire story. just write the worst story possible which makes literally no sense at all for 90 minutes and then in the last 10 seconds have someone wake up and say "wow what a weird dream!" sure it "technically" makes sense now, but is it good writing? no.
@@yinnyonline are you implying literally all things must be explicitly stated?
Man u butfoked the entire show, I actually love it 😂
Agatha was a boring clishe c list villain: evil laugh, knows everything about the protagonist, and she had the most overused trait in the mcu: Being the evil version of the protagonist. Same powers, different colors (black and dark purple-ish) and bad, bad, bad girl
Wouldn't it have been better to have them pair off against each others rivals (Wanda against evil vision, vision against witch lady whose name I definitely remember)?
Like, they probably know each others weaknesses better than their own. There's probably even a metaphor in there somewhere.
Wanda even killed Vision once so she’s got experience on her side.
11:04 It could be argued that Wanda doesn't know how genetics work and the imaginary children she has with Vision (who has the mind stone in him) could be the cause of that kid's powers. I think the fact that the two boys aren't exactly real gives them room to have all kinds of powers as long as Wanda believes it to be true.
I find it interesting that wanda and pietro got powers that could’ve helped them with the stark bomb situation like pietro is obvious he got super speed so he could run away from the bomb and also run his family and others far away from the bomb while Wanda is kinda less obvious but she got magic which I guess that could’ve let her move the bomb further away or fly away or put a magic force field around it or something idk I just think it’s cool that the powers they got could’ve been used to help them and if they got those powers from the stone due to their sheer determination to get revenge at Stark I could also see those powers being suited to fight against Stark(also maybe pietro got super speed cuz he just wanted to run away and get away from the bomb while Wanda got more offensive powers because she acc wanted to confront it head on/confront Stark)
"The town was boring and dusty" "She did them a favor" im so fckn dead💀
The only noticable problem I saw in this show is in the last episode when Rambo gets in front of the kids to protect them from the bullets... yet the bullets weren't even going to hit them anyways, she just gets in between them and takes the bullet.
Finally someone is saying the right things about this piece of shit tv show
I know..... It started off really creative and good but rapidly devolved into some god awful shit show....
This type of comment is on every negative analysis of a show/movie.
OW! that "this is what Daredevil was cancelled for" with footage from Season 3... that hurt
What baffles me (aside from all of the points made in this video, that is) is that they couldn’t even use White Vision to resurrect Ultron. Given how fast and loose they played with Wanda’s powers, it wouldn’t be much of a stretch to suggest that Wanda’s wrath created a magical duplicate of Ultron to match the duplicate of Vision. (I realize this is not a great idea on its own and would be very hard to pull off in a satisfying way. However, it would at least introduce some tangible consequence that Wanda couldn’t simply handwave away or ignore.)
The reason why Tommy has super speed is because Pietro is the father (comic accurate)
the comics are a holy grail
I agree with some of your points but there are a few I disagreed with. Firstly it's pretty obvious that Wanda has been pardoned from what happened thanks to her participating in the battle against Thanos, that didn't really need to get explained but it was anyway in falcon and the winter soldier made very clear. Wanda making those runes I see a lot of people misunderstanding it its not like she memorized it or made up her own runes. This goes to a fundemental misunderstanding with Wanda's abilities. You can kinda think of it as skipping the process kind of like the infinity stones to Ina sense. She doesn't have to actually think about how to do something she simply has to intend to do something. Same with expanding the hex its like an instinct if she wants to do something it happens without any effort on her part that is what makes her unique. Her magic works entirely on its own to achieve her desires. Although therein lies a few problems which comes down to her lack of knowledge concerning witchcraft. That is why she says she wants to understand the power and how to properly use it so she doesn't make the same mistakes she did in her original spell. As for the vision thing its a little ambiguous but I understand it as vision was deliberately broke apart to incite Wanda to reactivate him based on a theory by Hayward. If the deassembled him that many times they have sufficient knowledge to reassemble him efficiently also there is no reason why their technology would be inefficient. Nowhere in infinity war is it said that wakanda is the only place with the technology to remove the stone only that it is a place and captain America likely chose it for short notice and his personal connection to black panther who is literally the king and can get them help quickly.
I think that jimmy woo learning card tricks from Scott signifies him changing to understand the “hero’s” more, but yeah wtf he chill with lady enslaving town
@@raksomething6942 well something i can excuse is him undoing cuffs in seconds. Because it is a popular magic trick
My problem is nothing in Vision's body was giving him flight, and phasing. It was the mind stone. No amount of taking him apart will teach you how to make a machine phase through things magically like he does with the mind stone. And the beam for that matter was also produced by the mind stone, although you could say sword installed a beam into his head, but that just means government agencies now have access to stark level beam tech.
@@willow1601 that is confusing to me as well the only explanation I can give is that his body had been infused with the energy of the mind stone so much that the abilities are inherent to the body so long as it's powered by a similar enough energy in this case Wanda's magic. The same with the beam that appears of course its possible that they have advanced beam tech since S.W.O.R.D likely recovers various alien technologies.
@@lucianabrahams3743 I would prefer the writers coming up with different combat methods. Them beam is fine, but maybe a thruster for the flight, modular vibranium arm weapons or something.
My whole problem with the "infused" explanation+ the memory restoration is no one needed to grieve for Vision when he died in Infinity War. And grief aside there was no reason they couldn't just remove the entire stone from his head killing him then destroying it immediately. He has super powers without the stone, and his memories are still intact without Shuri finishing her Vision fix. Essentially if I took your explanation and combined it with Wanda Vision's memory fix it makes the whole "we don't trade lives" conflict in Infinity War a waste of time.
I'm amazed that you got past 2 episodes of Flash and WandaVision!
I pulled the plug half way through episode 2 of both.
2:30
Vision after Infinity War would be like Church in RVB season one.
Vision: "Guys why is is my body still up here?!?!"
The rest of the Avengers: "Well that's kind of thing about being dead your body doesn't really move around anymore."
Vision: "Let me rephrase that. WHY HAVEN'T YOU BURIED ME YET?!?!
This was Mauler level quality analysis!!
Surprised you did not use the "Suck! Suck! Suck!" scene from Spaceballs when Wanda's powers are sucked by Agatha
i was just watching and i saw your reference to South Africa's Desmond Tutu. Thank you for that one. it caught me off guard😂😂
