Huh. Today I learned.
MCU should adopt that as well instead of the silly 199999.
Going by the premiere of Iron Man in April 2008 I guess it should be...0 8 4.
...huh. Only now do I realize what Agents of SHIELD did there, lol.
I think as far as WandaVision goes, Agatha will be the only real villain, but what's her motive for doing everything? I'm guessing she wants to "raise" someone (Ralph/Nightmare/Mephisto?) from the dead or another dimension and she needs Wanda to help achieve those ends.
Whatever her goal is, I think she'll succeed with it, which will dovetail into Dr. Strange 2. Maybe we get a post-credits stinger after the last episode showing that her plan was successful, but I doubt we get another villain introduced this late that makes an impact within WandaVision.
I was aware it was Alan Moore who gave the Marvel Universe its number. I just didn't make that connection.
I think he said too much here.
When I thought of characters who could cameo if it wasn't Dr Strange I would still think of other characters in the MCU. Since his statement explicitly writes off a bunch of people from multiple Avengers movies the only choice left is Ian McKellan. I wish he hadn't said that it was someone he hasn't worked with yet. I could still be wrong but the amount of acceptable options becomes a lot smaller.
there's no definitive answer as far as i know. i have also heard it's a random number, in contrast to dc's earth 1, earth 2, etc, symbolizing the lack of importance in the main marvel multiverse, ie, it's just another universe among many
I still think this show has a twist up its sleeve.
While not every Marvel villain is Thanos or Magneto, Agatha right now is so cartoony ("I killed a dog! Hahahahah! Hate me!") that part of me is like... there has to be something... there's a piece missing. It can't be evil for the sake of evil because that's what bad guys do.

Oh, for certain. I expect her to reveal why she's doing what she did... and I still expect a greater force.
I can't believe Marvel assigned Earth-1 to Morlun and his boring family.
(I also can't believe they made a family of interdimensional steampunk vampires so boring.)
He never says it was a previous Marvel based actor... it could be literally be any character played by any actor Paul Bettany hasn't worked with. Ian Mckellan isnt the only choice plus they both had roles in The Da Vinci code. My belief is its Ralph...who is a human disguise for another character. Al Pacino ;)
All of these things you mentioned as bad plot points including this one are correct but I can see with this one they cared more about maximizing comedic effect over making a logical decision.
Dude. Look at the left hand side of this image.
Ha. I was wondering if I was wrong about that but man we are really getting into obscure territory.
For sure.
They basically did the same with Hayward which seemed to get some people here upset since they wanted the situation to seem more ambiguous and that Wanda could be bad and wrong rather than have Hayward represent that side of the argument and he just started coming across as an unprompted asshole. I think both characters will get some fleshing out of their motivations because otherwise right now they are just evil because they like being evil.
It's probably going to be Wolverine or the professor. They're already in X-Men territory now and there's no way alt-Quicksilver is a red herring
yeah, he has
jfc then maybe this star doesn't exist. We had it wrong about 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon, it's 1 degree of Paul Bettany.
I can't tell if people make fun of Mephisto theories at this point because they think they are ridiculous or because they think they are probably true, but they are just tired of people pointing out potential clues. Of all the theorizing, the Mephisto stuff seems like it has the most legit teases in the show, so much so that I swear YouTubers just pull the most obscure comic connections out of their ass and make the most tenuous connections just to have something different to talk about and put out more videos
...Damn. I mean I think maybe reading into things a bit too much, but...that fits.
I say that by the final episode, the big bad is revealed to be Nightmare, NOT Mephisto. Winner chooses the loser's avatar, lasting for a month.
eh, that's a placeholder garbage name. until it shows up in the mcu, i consider it non canon
I was a little bored with the obvious reveals, but a lot of that is mostly my fault for picking apart the series. The big thing for me this episode was straight up just calling out the Nexus like that in the commercial. I really didn't expect the MCU to full on go ham with the multiverse, I expected a little more hand wavy science quantum realm stuff since most of the MCU was been "down to earth" science based versions of the comic stuff. Really interested to see where this leads.
The latter, mostly. All signs point to Mephisto (though my gut since the beginning has said it's possible they're purposely teasing Mephisto only to NOT use him) but you have to admit, it's pretty hilarious that some people cry Mephisto every time there's a new character introduced.
So Nexus was a reference to Wanda being a "Nexus Being" which is too say that she is the same person in every multiverse.
... didn't Kaecilius steal the book with Dormammu's seal in?
Travelling in and out of the Hex. Darcy said a few eps ago that she was changing on a molecular level.
It's the main theory, but a poster earlier one made a great point about how maybe it is the necronomicon.
