WandaVision episode 6:
The ad break was really creepy on this one, made me wonder if people out on the edges of the town are starving or something. Felt so dark seeing those people stuck in simple loops.

Agnes seemed pretty creepy too, and Pietro knows more than he should surely? Not sure that they're really under Wanda's control.

Feel really bad for Vision, seeing bits of him being torn off as he was trying to leave the hex, with no memory of anything before this life.

Also, what's going on with Monica's DNA? No comic spoilers please, if she's in the comics :shifty:

Loved the Malcolm in the Middle stuff BTW, and the 'kick-ass' mention. Funny how they went from no kids around last week to kids galore, lol.


Can't wait for next week!

I thought it was another excellent episode. Loved that they went with a Malcolm in the Middle theme. Rumours I saw online suggest next week will be themed on the Office US

I've no idea where all of this is going, but I'm enjoying the ride.

All I'll say is that Monica is in one of the upcoming films

For anyone that wants Monica comic spoilers she's another superhero and was another (better :shifty: ) Captain Marvel in the comics, and was one of the Captain Marvels prior to Carol Danvers.

RE: Next week

The next one looks like it'll be Modern Family, which does have the same mockumentary style of The Office but I think it'll replicate MF in the way they did Malcolm in the Middle this week

Really interested to see who Monica’s contact is, someone from Shield perhaps?

Heard a lot of wishful thinking saying/hoping it might be Reed Richards.

I think Monica said it was an aerospace guy so probably Rhodey who's actually met Wanda.

Isn’t Rhodey in the Falcon/Winter Soldier series though?

I don't know but no reason he couldn't do both.

One thing that struck me as I watched this week was that we have a Secret Invasion series coming. It's very probable that at least some of the characters we're going to be seeing in Wandavision, F&tWS and Loki as well as the movies are going to turn out to be Skrulls.

My money in this would be the SWORD guy in charge.

Wanda Vision 7

Well that’s an incredibly catchy reveal :lol:

So Nexus has to mean something - multiverse basically it sounded? 

And is Agatha eating the kids or using them to power something? Based on the advert last week and chomp chomp on the TV



There’s a mid credit sequence this week!

Might want to spoiler that last line as some people might enjoy the surprise.

I always watch the credits to most things I watch. It's a moment to unwind and let everything sink in while listening to, hopefully, a good choice of music as a garnish to the piece. It's all part of the experience.

It’s a comparatively slow episode (setting up for final stretch) but it’s nice just to spend time with the characters. They’ve done so well.

Paul Bettany is a treasure

Aaaaargh I need to wait for my wife to wake up before we can watch this and it is KILLING ME.

Not clicking on Hexx’s spoilers is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Hoping for at least a villain reveal this week - with two episodes left it’d be nice to know who we’re up against. Whether it’s Wanda, Agatha Harkness, Mephisto, Director Hayward or whatever.
