Excuse me, Jimmy had multiple magic tricks.

FLOURISH

[Ksandra]

If Jimmy Woo doesn't get his own tv series out of this I am going to be very upset.

[Tyrath]

Prepare to be very upset.

I think he's much better in a supporting role like this than starring in a show of his own.

Unless you meant outside of the MCU

[Kaslo]

He's in Young Rock also?

Wasn't there talks about him getting an X-Files type TV show?

[Kanriel]

Jimmy Woo can be the new canon Agents of Shield for the MCU.

[Ksandra]

This would be awesome.

No, just people wishing for it to happen. I'd be fine with it. He and Darcy would make a fun team to watch as a show.

Spoiler: show

Going to echo Qalbert here, I do think too many misdirects can be harmful. All the devil lines and inferences being misdirects, the "for the children!" was just about their actual kids being forced to sleep and not about anyone wanting Wanda's kids, "Ralph" is just some dude she had locked up, etc are fine if not a bit less exciting than what they could've been. The only one that really bugs me is wasting Evan Peters on a boner joke. I really enjoy him as quicksilver. He was one of the best things from the FOX Xmen universe, and having him wasted as a dick joke is pissing a lot of people off, myself included. I don't give a pass on that one.

edit for spoiler tags just in case.

Subverting Expectations loses again

Jimmy should be the Young/New Avengers Fury. He doesn’t need his full show but having get people together that he has personally seen and trusted would make for a pretty cool gathering.

[kuronosan]

Predatory youtube morons spreading rumors we're going to get a 10th episode with Dr. Strange in it.

Let it go people. Fuck.

[Zealot]

Apparently there was a 10th episode and there was going to be more stuff with Darcy and Monica (and Senor Scratchy) but things had to change because of the scheduling shuffle and filming during the pandemic.

Turns out, the fans were right to pick up on the significance of the engineer because the show was building up to a character reveal that was scrapped while the show was still airing as fans started zeroing in on Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four, who apparently was not the cameo

Matt Shakman explained to Smith and Bernardin that originally, a sub-plot was filmed involving the twins, Monica, Darcy and Ralph Bohner as they attempted to steal the Darkhold from Agatha Harkness’ basement. It sounds like it would’ve teased more monstrous things in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as the director confirmed that Agatha’s rabbit, Scratchy, would’ve been revealed as a demon.

Yeah that's a part of the disappointment. They built up a giant reveal past "it's agatha", and absolutely none of it payed off. Just none of it. It really was agatha, and she's even lamer than you thought she was.

You can't have the red herring be better than the actual thing. Now it just feels like a big wasted opportunity.

I mean, if it is pandemic related stuff give them some slack.

Here we are demanding no changes due to a global shitstorm. Shit ain't right.

It's like when people were upset over Dumbledore's new actor, but the fuck, Harris died, what were they gonna do?



TBH, while yeah things could have been better had the pandemic not hit, it still was a good ending, just on the Wanda/Vision scene alone.

I am blown away by the amount of people who can't seem to understand some simple shit that wasn't over explained in the show.A big one being "How did Feitro get super speed?" "How could Agatha still be under the spell if the hex was broken" "Why was there two wandas" "Is Vision Ultron?" "Why'd Vision leave?" and just the dumb questions go on.
