Hello out there,
I hope the new year is treating you well. It’s been especially good when it comes to TV series! What are you talking about Katherine? I’m talking about WandaVision.
I’m in love with this show. Marvel has something really great going on and I wanted to share it with you.
I’ll try to keep this as spoiler free as possible but if I do happen to discuss something that might spoil the show in some way, I’ll give a warning.
The show starts off in black and white. Everything is very light hearted. The first episode is very entertaining but there’s an underlying tone to the show that tells you something isn’t right.
If you’re caught up with the marvel movies you know Wanda as ‘Wanda Maximoff” a really powerful Avenger. Until now we didn’t know much about her character other than that she is in love with Vision.
Vision, on the other hand, is a synthezoid (Synthetic Humanoid.) who is powered by the Mind Stone. The mind stone is one of the 6 Infinity Stones. They are extremely powerful and were created by Cosmic Entities. Vision died in Avengers Infinity War when Thanos took the stone from his head.
The most confusing thing about this story is the question: Why is Vision alive? The mind stone is gone. Captain America took the stone back to its rightful place in time and the one that was in Wanda’s timeline was destroyed by Thanos.
The most exciting thing about WandaVision is that we get to see just how powerful Wanda is. Her powers were given to her by Hydra in an experiment using an Infinity Stone. The stones are one of the most powerful things in the Marvel Cinematic Universe so it makes sense that she is so strong.
After the black and white era the show moves on to a 1970’s style sitcom and I have to admit that it was really entertaining. It follows the trend of something’s just not right.
The makers of the show said that it will eventually progress to a “The Office” style which I’m really looking forward to.
Last night I watched episode five and everything jumps to a 1980’s-1990’s style. They did such a good job and I got “Full House” vibes from the episode. Wanda (Elizabeth Olsen) is related to the Olsen twins who played in “Full House”. She looks really similar to her sisters so I got chills.
I think that’s all I’m willing to talk about right now. I think I might start reviewing some of the episodes with a ton of spoilers.
If you’re interested in the show make sure to grab a Disney+ subscription while they are still cheap. (Heard they are going to up the price soon.)
Hope you have a wonderful Saturday!
Katherine
