[keg in kc]

I didn't think I wanted to watch this. Then the trailer premiered last night.

I don't know if that means that when people die, they die the same exact way throughout the multiverse or if this is just a one-off, but it's definitely food for thought, IMO.

Spoiler!

I think what could be happening is that it’s an imposter all together. There were a couple scenes hinting at tension with him and Vision. Some think that could mean that he’s really Maphisto because he believes the kids are his (hence the tension).

That was a decision made by a different group: a clique of unaccountable superheroes who don’t fear enhanced beings and knew Vision.

SHIELD & SWORD are theoretically operating within an accountable bureaucracy, are not superheroes and fear enhanced beings, and didn’t know Vision personally.

It makes sense to me that different groups make different decisions.

Vision was created by Tony Stark and no other agency has or had the authority to do anything with his remains, as he wasn’t human nor was he created by a state or federal agency.

I'm also half expecting them to use their Time Machine at some point so that Captain America (Chris Evans) can return to his current age by pushing time through him, as they did with Scott Lang in their initial experiments in Endgame.

Oh, I think they have plans for Cap.

I suspect we may eventually get to SEE what Sam asked Cap to tell him about at the end of Endgame...

So it appears that Wandavision had a fairly precipitous drop in viewers from early numbers. I still really enjoy the show and would say it's top 5 in the best things the MCU has put out.

Marvel might be a tad disappointed to see WandaVision drop from 434M in Week 1 to 376M in Week 2 with 3 episodes, Wandavision also didn't reach the Top 10 of SVOD licensed programs, Which is worrying for High budget flagship Marvel show.

No offense but whoever wrote and posted that is completely full of shit. And the bozo you quoted has 27 followers, so he's not exactly a solid source for entertainment news.

WandaVision is the #1 streamed program worldwide.

Specifically, Parrot Analytics noted that while initially WandaVision had somewhat lackluster viewing metrics, bouncing between the number 7 and 35 spots worldwide, it eventually landed as the second or third most in-demand series since its third episode released on Jan. 22.

But on Feb. 5, when episode five was released featuring a shocking ending, the Jac Schaeffer-created series propelled to the title of “number one series worldwide.” It has remained there ever since as of Feb. 7, the last day data was available.

Since all Disney+ series are released weekly, it takes a while for their numbers to rise, as most are used to binging an entire Netflix or Amazon series in a matter of days, so making the comparison to those series is an exercise in futility.

I've read that Parrot Analytics is not a great source either...

Well, that source is wrong as well.

The only time Netflix, Disney+, Hulu or Amazon releases their streaming numbers is when their programs are wildly successful but otherwise, their streams are a mystery. Even the PRO's don't have access to their numbers directly from the streamers, so they're relying on Parrot to provide reliable numbers in order to pay composers like myself.

Parrot Analytics was the first company to determine streaming metrics and once Nielsen noticed how many companies subscribed to their service, opened up a streaming division as well but they're still well behind Parrot.

Absolutely LOVE the Always Sunny references.

Now we’re starting to get some answers!!!!!!!!!!

Also FYI...there is a mid-credits scene this week.

Spoiler!

I know Agatha was sort of an anti-hero in the comics. I wonder if she’s being manipulated by mephisto? The Agatha reveal was just good tv. Man, with only 2 episodes left, they are going to have to be like an hour each.

Spoilers and Easter Eggs for the past couple months.

I do still think “Pietro” could be Mephisto though (or Nightmare), but they definitely made it seem like she was controlling the character, so it’s probably doubtful.

But “Ralph”? Since we haven’t seen him yet, I think that’s where we get Mephisto or Nightmare.

Great episode

Considering that this last episode crashed Disney+ for almost an hour and a half when it dropped Thursday, I would say that plenty of people are watching.
