it's up there.. but is the story finished 🤔

Wanda was using sitcoms based on what she watched when she was growing up for her grieving. While Wanda and Vision spend the early episodes trying to hide their abilities it was only a matter of time before they came realized to the town. I believe the beginning was Agatha testing Wanda’s powers.

It is a shame that not a lot of people watch this channel. I find the analysis much more deeper and from the heart than on any other channel out there. Eric, heavy spoilers, emergency awesome are all interesting in their own ways, but this channel does it better and still has less views.

Thanks for watching with us. Best You Tube companion for this show. Some others went so far out, but you kept it simple

Thanks for this video essay. Really well thought out and well written. Always look forward to your vids.

Man, this was great, a deep breakdown of all the themes & tropes & the stages of grief. Such a cogent & thoughtful breakdown.

Ryan. Thank you sir. Your work is valued and you are appreciated.

“What is grief, if not love persevering.” Damn. Stellar writing and stellar delivery by Paul Bettany.

Dang. This breakdown was actually crazy and highlighted a lot of stuff I didn’t realize. Especially the connections between the older sitcoms, the show, and how they relate to everyday life for us as well. One of the few video essays that’s done right. Well done.

I just wanna applaud the creators of this show for doing something unique.

What a fantastic breakdown of the series. Your insights reminded me of my film theory class. Thanks for making this video!

I find your well thought out breakdowns second to none with New Rockstars a close second. Thank you for your hard work

great explanation, you definitely brought things to the forefront that I didn't even catch or realize. This is definitely a great explanation of the series !

Just finished it. Absolutely loved it. So well made, clever and emotional. It's great they are daring to take the marvel universe into new directions with this and Loki. The future looks good.

The ending of this video is some of your finest work, well done!

Woohoo, NEW VIDEO I LOVE MARVEL AND YOU HELP ME SOLVE MY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE MOVIES/SERIES. keep up the amazing work

I cannot stop watching your videos on analyzing these characters. They add more depth to super hero shows. 🙌🏽

So well put. I have enjoyed all these episodes along with WandaVision and the Mandalorian and I look forward to the next obsession!! 😅

I loved following her through all of it

So glad I found this channel. Thank you!

Really like your videos man! Looking forward to the next one!

12:04 JJ Walker wasn't a visitor or neighbor like Urkel. He was actually part of the Evans family.

To give Elizabeth Olsen the full experience of the big screen. I don't ever want it to end.

You’re really good at what you do, I’m happy there are people like you

So well done...thank you Screen Crush dude!

I've always liked Wanda. I had trouble accepting that she was capable of being so villainous and selfish after all this time. Granted it was unintentional but almost none of it was addressed in the end, and her character seems slightly more grey. It makes sense that there is still a dark and terrifying aspect of her power. But after being an Avenger for so long it's almost jarring. These people snapped out of it and were terrified of her. And her reflex was to accidentally strangle everyone. This was before she leveled up to become the Dark Phoenix. Oops I mean Scarlet Witch.

Hurt people hurt people. I find it insane that a character can be an orphan, have her brother murdered, then have the love of her life murdered in front of her, after she already murdered him to save the world...why do people not think that trauma will come out? I don't remember the government asking if she was okay after her twin died instead they put her on house arrest.

Interesting coming back to this after MoM. Contrary to the opinion of many, I believe the movie actually retroactively makes the show even better, in particular the season finale. And the way you've described the themes and the character arc thru the story of WandaVision really was leading to the events of MoM.

Really lovely and insightful piece, thank you!

It sure was fun watching you break down all the Easter eggs after each episode. Will miss that. Thanks for the memories.

I think the 5 stages of grief have been moved around 1) anger - at losing Vision 2) depression - that she couldn’t see his body 3) anger - by going to Westview and trapping the entire town 4) bargaining- living her life through sitcoms 5) acceptance - realising that a fake family is not the solutions to her problems. Just a theory tho......

You literally have the best videos for Marvel content. I spent 20 minutes that I should’ve been using to get ready for work, to instead watch your, “what’s the point?” vid for the Loki series. Now I’ve done it again on this one. Now I’m 40 minutes late for work. Thanks Ryan Arey!❤️

This was wonderful. Thank you 💕

didn't Agatha say in near the end of the series that she wanted to see if Wanda could create life from nothing so surely it was her pressuring her into having children

I very liked the show. For me, WandaVision is about loss and grief and how you deal with it. In the end, you have to go on, change and leave the past behind you. Elizabeth and Paul have awesome chemistry in front of the camera. And I don't want a standard superhero action series because we already have the movies, and WandaVision gave me a new perspective regarding the MCU. The end was a little bit weak but overall this was a very entertaining ride and I am very curious about the next instalments of the MCU, especially for Loki :)

Awesome video Ryan Arey 👍

Like the show, which kept us all guessing and entertained in a thoughtful way, I enjoyed this very much! Thank you!

you got me in the last 20 seconds. "For the children"

We have watched many of your videos on wandavison, along with others and no one has called out Vision’s identical copy of Mr. Incredible’s TV interview in the opening credits. Spot on from the lav mic removal to bumping the boom mic.

Great review !!! Amazing

Okay. You've convinced me. I've subscribed. YAY!

I enjoyed WandaVision. A very unique, powerful character wrapped in a really beautiful lady, but my heart really went out to Wanda. Considering everything she went through, it's no wonder she went nuts for awhile. What she created was cool, unless you count the terrified hostages.

Can we just agree that without Agatha pushing Wanda into "therapy", she wouldn't solve her trauma and would still be in the hex?

Agatha seemed to have gotten shafted as bad as the residents of Westview, she didn't seem to deserve what she got in the end. What was Agatha even doing in the hex? Was she living in Westview when Wanda created the hex? Was she Jimmy's witness protection case? And talking about people getting shafted, how was the director of SWORD even in the wrong? The Vision in the Hex was a fake, what Wanda was doing was actually wrong, he actually told Wanda they were decommissioning Vision when she showed up. The only thing he could be wrong about was activating Vision again against his orders, but the show already made him to be the villain before he ever did that.

4:27 Your editing of that scene with Wanda and Vision juxtaposed with Thanos and Vision while keeping the laugh track intact was freaking brilliant. This is one of the best breakdowns of WandaVision yet. It was something I sorely needed to come back to after watching Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Thanks for helping fill this void

You sir, are a delight. Thank you.

Awesome video man!!!! Don’t know how you came up with this?.?.?.? Great job

Thank you. This was very in depth and informative.

This was an amazing analysis of what WandaVision is!

This was awesome, thank you!

This is my favourite place to get all my nerd info, thank you so much for inventing this channel

Thank you so much!! ❤️ Now I understand the show 😊

Steve, your videos never fail to not cheer me up.

Love this. Such a complete review.

You did a great job on this video bro, just finished the series today and wanted some closure on a few thing before I start falcon

Lovely insight, Ryan ❤

Subscribed! Great video! Thanks!

I miss this show so much. This was a excellent break down

Awesome analysis it's just one of its kind and it's simply an eye opener

That little dig at the end to like and subscribe was smooth as silk, well done!

Love it! Great job man. 👏

Great video. You have a voice for this kinda thing 👌.

Excellent analysis!!! Wow..

I love your videos! Cant wait for you to do something for ZS Justice League and Falcon and Winter Soldier! So well researched. Helps me remember key moments from the comics I had forgot about.

The craftsmanship for this is superb, this is brilliant in so many ways, from the black and white to the cinema like color grading and aspect ratio, this reminds me of parallel themes and Tropes like The Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask for the stages of grieving and Superman for the man who has everything, for the beautiful lie aspect and the pain it gives to give up that perfect world for Reality.

Fantastic breakdown of the series. Makes me appreciate its brilliance even more.

Thanks for the review, stud. 👍🏼👍🏼

Thanks for this!

Well done my friend. Well done.

Best analysis I’ve seen of Wandavision. I think it’s probably my favourite Marvel production, of course I love a lot of the movies and TV shows but they all have a wider purpose, driving a narrative further. Whereas this just sits beautifully on its own.

This was freaking great. Thank you!!

Very well done piece.

Wow I appreciate this show so much more. Very insightful

that was a smooth fan engagement bit, I have been subbed but that was noice.

Well summarized!

Thank you Ryan

Amazing video! ♥️

Great review

You did s LOT OF WORK on this one congrats!!

You are the coolest. Love your channel.

nicely done Ryan...

Absolutely love your humor at the start of most of these! "...the black mirror that used to be Wandavision...", "...the show you watch while waiting for New Rockstar to upload theirs..." Super informative, and just a wee bit of good humor. Keep it up!

Great breakdown an thank you

I love your videos and I CAN NOT wait to see what you come up with for Falcon and Winter Solider!

Another great analysis, thank you for these. Can't wait to see what you have to say after Loki.

*the best analysis on yt*

beautiful analysis!

great analysis

So good... thank you

In your channel. I ask myself that same question all the time.

Loved it. Definitely felt like they pulled from step by step and arrested development !

This is such a good video 💯❤

Super annoied that, even though she didn't do it "on purpose", she suffers no consequence of holding a town hostage for weeks and leaving them traumatized. They let her go, just like that. Not like they could do anything but would have been more satisfying if Monica instead of saying "nah, just go, don't do it again ok? I would have done the same with mom" would have said "listen what you did was unforgivable, you would beat us to pulp so I won't stop you NOW but rest asured you'll pay for your crimes sooner or later, these people deserve justice and I won't rest until they get it".

If they wanted to show Wanda as a moral person they should have had her turn herself in at the end and face the consequences, instead of flying off into the sunset. Seriously. What she did, intentional or not, was NOT ok. Not to be the grumpy old man, but the writing smacks of the worst trends of the ascending generation. “I know I took a town hostage and tortured them and their children for weeks, and at minimum I can try to erase some of those horrible memories, but I didn’t mean to do it so I’m just gonna leave without trying to make this right or face the consequences.” Major, major storytelling mistake. EDIT: if the reason she can’t turn herself in is fear of being weaponized like Vision, then fine. Verbalize it. “Wanda, you can’t just leave, what you’ve done is horrible and you need to turn yourself in and answer for it.” “I want to. But I can’t risk being turned into another weapon like Vision. I need to get away from people and get a handle on my abilities. Maybe once I have, I can return and remove these painful memories I caused in Westview.” She still ends up in the cabin studying, but it shows that she cares for the people she’s harmed and is determined to make amends for what she’s done. It also shows that consequences matter. Seriously, I don’t get how Wanda just getting dirty looks from the townies is enough. “I know I just gave you all PTSD and took your kids hostage, but I gotta go have another adventure. Deuces!”

@@DemoDick1 totally agree. Or maybe she could just assume she's a villain and own it. The reason I said Monica could have been the voice of reason there, is because I see more consistent with her character arc the fact that she's not taking responsibility for her actions, her being a victim is part of her character and that's fine, but the writers being OK with it and pretending the audience to be so feels wrong to me. Monica could have embodied that sense of ethic and Wanda could have kept being a victim persona with no sense of responsibility over her actions with no major changes... only that would have implied future conflict between those characters and I don't konw if they're heading that way in future films.

@@lionellerner Yep. Monica’s last lines made it even worse. “They’ll never know what *you* gave up for them.” Uh, hello? How about what THEY gave up? You know, agency and sanity? Wanda caused potentially irreparable and catastrophic psychological damage to thousands of people who hadn’t harmed her any way. The fact that she didn’t do it intentionally is a mitigating factor, NOT an excusatory one. She’s culpable. The question is HOW culpable is she? It isn’t even examined. And were supposed to see Hayward as a bad guy because he broke the rules to protect the people of Westview from Wanda’s reign of terror (i.e. his job)? He’s an antagonist? Really? It could have been so much better, so much more interesting and exploratory with just a couple added/different lines and modified character motivations. No major plot changes, no budget increases. Just better storytelling. Stuff like this makes me seriously consider a second career as a writer. I could do better and no one pays me for it. LOL.

Since both of you felt like that.. then Marvel did it job. I felt that this is how we supposed to feel about her. Just like how everyone in the world hated her (since Civil War.) And I give a pass to Monica since she's the only one person to understand her grief. With all the world (majority) against her, Monica doesn't need to antagonize her. She's far from a hero now.. she's a force of chaos. I feel like in the future, she will be an isolated witch. Just living her life at the edge of the world..

I just watched another guy video on the topic & he ain't get none of that..it pissed me off..da point r so clear, but I must say u did a wonderful job..thanks

Thank you for the synopsis, Sir.

Since Vision got his memory back I though he and Wanda would see each other and you know cry it out I really was hoping to see that but they never saw each other after he got his memory back. And I was hoping in any of those end credit scene's they would reunite but that was not the case....

If we are being honest Agatha was the “Endora” of the series!

You just saved me a whole lot of money. Thanks!

Jesus christ, the plug at the end! :D Fantastic video as always

Main point seems to be to develop Wanda's character before Dr Strange, and to give a giant middle finger to all the long time marvel fans who like to discuss theories and/or make videos about them.
