Same. Had to really bite my tongue for a bit.

I feel like this show is filmed in real time. It’s crazy at how they perfectly predicted audience reactions and speculations.

[Tomiko]

Tell your friend about that Disney movie where an evil uncle murders his own brother and eats him before himself getting eaten to death by his followers.

Sounds like something he should have been prepared for.

[Zealot]

So with what I assume is the final commercial out I reassess my analysis of them:

Spoiler: show

1: Being trapped underneath the Stark missile + the Mind Stone (toaster resembled Vision with the stone in his forehead)
2: Being tortured by Baron Strucker + the Time Stone (it was a watch)
3: Being radicalized by Hydra + The Space Stone (soap box was a cube like the Tesseract)
4: Changing this one - after the last commercial I now believe this was about Wanda being unable to control her power and blowing up the Wakandan embassy in Lagos - and it was referenced how the towels were the "most powerful," so, the Power Stone.
5: Wanda's Survivor's Guilt after she came back but Vision and Quicksilver are still dead (Wanda in the same episode talks about how she feels alone and isolated before the commercial) + the Soul Stone (skeleton man has an object but can't use it)
6: Wanda's severe depression + The Reality Stone.

6, like the sides of a Hexagon.

So I am wondering that the different eras each episode is

Spoiler: show

due to Wanda figuring out things or stumbling onto something and Agnes “resets” her and changes the era forwards a decade. I am also starting to think Wanda started off with a very small hex but when Agnes showed up it increased in size as she’s been using situations to push her powers allowing her to possibly siphon them off for Mephisto so he can feast on her grief and/or possibly create a multiverse

The infinity stones are a done story-line. It would be incredibly lazy for Marvel to go right back to them.

I don't think they'll be brought in, but I think they're definitely a huge part of Wanda's trauma, which is what the show is about.

Marvel has said that the stones are done. That’s why they atomized them. They don’t want writers to rely on them, at all.

[Xno Kappa]

Yeah. That’s why I don’t get people trying to equate them to the commercials. Just seems like a huge stretch. They’re a part of Wanda’s trauma. Nothing more.

[Myrrh_Quetz]

And well, if anyone was to comment about the infinity stones

Spoiler: show

It would have been Darcy as she explained Visions Backstory to him. I don't recall her even saying it once. That should be the biggest clue that they're done with them.

I can't get the song out of my head. Shit was the catchiest one

[Alvinho]

On topic: I had a dream the "Luke Skywalker" cameo would be Magneto, and it all made sense when I woke up, but I can't really remember why. Regardless, I'm sure I'll be excited/surprised at whoever it is, judging from my reaction to Evan Peters (if he wasn't the reveal himself).

I just remembered why I thought Magneto. Before Wanda expanded the hex, Westview's "safety limit" for her kids was Ellis avenue, which could be a throwback to Ellis Island. Made sense at the time, but less likely with all this Agatha Harkness stuff. We'll see.

Spoiler: show

Another nifty tidbit I found online, is that on the funko pop box for WandaVision's Pietro Maximoff, his name is in quotations, while nobody else's is.

[Myrrh_Quetz]

Ellis Ave is most likely a nod to the President in the MCU, Mathew Ellis.

[Malithar]

Not really spoilery, but my own assumption of the cameo.

Spoiler: show

Didn't see anyone bring up Clint showing up at some point to talk sense into Wanda. Every movie, from Age of Ultron, Civil War, and Endgame, he was always the one able to speak with her in a way that others seemingly couldn't. I don't think I'd consider him a Luke Skywalker level cameo, but I'd be surprised if he doesn't show up to get her back in line. Could also drop a tid bit that leads into the Hawkeye series later this year.

Written by the same people who brought you Let it Go and Hasa diga eebowai.

A part of me wants the Luke Skywalker cameo to be someone from the X-men or F4, but I think this would be more powerful.

Spoiler: show

Clint would be the perfect person to bring Wanda back. He knows the trauma of loss, multiples times over, and what happens when you let it take hold of you. I'd rather see this.

I'd have to hard disagree with the assertion that he would qualify as a 'Luke Skywalker cameo'

I hard agree with this disagreement. Hawkeye is probably one of the most, if not THE most, unimpressive dudes in the MCU, imo.
