[Wikipedia Summary](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WandaVision): WandaVision is
|
||
|
|
an American television miniseries created by Jac Schaeffer for the streaming
|
||
|
|
service Disney+, based on Marvel Comics featuring the characters Wanda Maximoff
|
||
|
|
/ Scarlet Witch and Vision.

This is (I believe) the first forray of Disney into the Marvel after buying it
|
||
|
|
-- or, at least, the first outside the movies which Marvel had planned all
|
||
|
|
along.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In a way, it is a fun series, mostly 'cause you may have seen a TV series that
|
||
|
|
Wandavision is replicating. But not everything is copycating some series, there
|
||
|
|
is a story going on the side, which tries to explain why you're watching Wanda
|
||
|
|
and Vision in, say, "I Love Lucy" style, although the real reason is actually
|
||
|
|
shown in the very last episodes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And the real reason for the multiple series is actually a pretty good reason,
|
||
|
|
but someone decided that it was time to introduce another villain, just in case
|
||
|
|
Disney decided to make a Wanda movie in the future.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In case you didn't spoil yourself yet, here it goes: Wanda is using her full
|
||
|
|
power to create an illusion in the same style of the series she watched as a
|
||
|
|
kid, after losing Vision and her brother in the movies. So the whole thing is
|
||
|
|
actually a way to deal with loss and how people search escape from the sad
|
||
|
|
feelings they feel and that affects people around -- which is a pretty large
|
||
|
|
affect part when you have magical powers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Acting is top notch, with Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany still doing the
|
||
|
|
quality they did in the movies. The rest of the cast just follows along.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the end, it is fun series, even when the message is pretty dark.
