There’s a reason I have an annual subscription to Disney+. After watching The Mandalorian, I was looking for something new to watch. WandaVision caught my eye, and after work, I decided to watch the series. I’m intrigued as to how WandaVision will play out, as I’m not exactly sure what’s going on in the story.
Wanda Maximoff (played by Elizabeth Olsen) and Vision (played by Paul Bettany) are a married couple living in suburbia. Each episode released so far has shown Wanda and Vision in a different time era. It’s not explicitly stated which time period each episode occurs in. The first episode is clearly the 50’s as Wanda stays home cooking and levitating dishes while she cleans them. In the second episode, Wanda is wearing pants, so it must be later on. There are certain occurrences between both episodes leading Wanda and Vision to be hesitant about the life they are living. WandaVision has been compared to classic sitcoms, although my first impression of the series reminded me of The Truman Show starring Jim Carrey.
I’m happy with the WandaVision series thus far! Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany have great chemistry together. They cover for each other when there’s the off chance someone might discover their powerful abilities. One fun scene to watch was in the second episode when Vision and Wanda were performing for a talent show. Vision would complete these magic tricks using his natural strengths. Wanda would summon an object to counteract Vision’s trick. It shows how they work together, even if it’s as simple as a neighborhood talent show.
There are so many unanswered questions! At the end of episode #2, there’s a beekeeper who appears out of a storm drain. I’m not sure who that’s supposed to be. Additionally, Wanda hears her name being called out on a radio. This moment in the second episode is why I was reminded of The Truman Show. WandaVision is supposed to tie into the Doctor Strange sequel, so I’m curious as to how this will be achieved. Are Wanda and Vision in an alternate reality? Were they kidnapped and forced to be in this show to entertain others? How is Vision back because he died in Avengers: Infinity War? There was an ad in one of the episodes of WandaVision listing Hydra as a sponsor. I thought that was a clever “blink and you miss it” Easter Egg.
If you have already watched WandaVision, please comment your theories in the comments below! The third episode of WandaVision will air on Friday, January 22nd, only on Disney+.
I still need to check this series out . I may wait for all the episodes to finish before I start.
