I laughed, I cried, I GASPED

[Spoiler (click to open)]white vision!!!! I remember after watching infinity war telling one of my friends that dead vision kinda looked like white vision and that it would be a dream come true if they ever really did it. but at the time I thought vision was dead forever, or they would never get to work out his story enough to do it but they did it!! I wonder if he's sticking around for more projects now, or if something bad will happen to him in wandavision guess we'll seeeee

I guess my brain purged most of my comics knowledge, because the first thing I thought when reading [Spoiler (click to open)]“white vision” was “did they recast, because Paul Bettany is pretty damn white”

Omg a clip show!

But it was devestating.

I wish these posts were later in the day. I don't have time to watch until after work.

I just gave in and started watching them at 6 am. West coast struggles.

i'm a mix of emotions about this ep

like it was beautifully executed and some of the lines just about destroyed me. wanda describing her grief as a wave that kept pushing her down is exactly how i feel about depression. and vision's "what is grief, if not love persevering?" is a straight banger

but it also didn't give me ENOUGH. i feel like they set up the "residents" of westview to have their own backstories but it doesn't look like that'll be the case??

kathryn hahn is officially in the upper echelon of MCU villains. every line of dialogue from her was pitch fucking perfect. no wonder she was so excited about this show

and i have no clue how they're going to wrap this up. the last ep better be 2 hours.

Kathryn has really stolen the show. It reminds me of how everyone was so obsessed with Loki with the first Thor movie that they just had to keep him. I'm hoping that they do the same for her. She is just so magnetic, her comedic timing so sharp, that even if the show is about Wanda and her grief, you really are left wanting more from her.

The whole "I don't feel alone because I haven't lost anyone" speech GOT ME.

[theactualworst]

I was NOT expecting that level of depth with the grief line. This show is full of pleasant surprises.

Wow for what they did to Vision electric chair.

I love how this episode highlighted something that seemed to be not clicking: Wanda isn’t some irrational woman who actively was working to be malicious. She is grieving from loss that until this episode I don’t think the MCU did a good job of fully exploring.

I actually like Wanda and Vision now ... imagine that.

The ending has me shaking what is going to happen next episode?!?!?! I’m not ready

[witchyspice]

YES thank you!!!! people were SO eager for Wanda to be unstable and crazy and a full fledged villain and I was just sat around telling everyone she’s been through SOME shit but my friend said it best when she said “the M for marvel stands for misogyny” like I’m just glad that they’ve spelt things out so clearly with this ep

[lovelydress2087]

And the fact that Vision helped her get through the first loss. Idk I don't think people realize what kind of bond that can form and then for that to be ripped away from her? Wanda is in so much pain.

[m_pendulum]

Her helped her and literally gave her the tools to get through losing him. If that evil white man hadn't been a capitalist militaristic asshole this never would have happened.
