Those of us who read Marvel comics already knew the Scarlet Witch is often a villain. And one of the most powerful ones at that.

[@Zombie_Trooper]

Exactly! It drives me crazy how many people only see her as an Avenger. Comic Wanda was always a wildcard. You never knew if she was going to be a hero or a villain in a story. I personally loved them giving her the teeth she always had.

[@stellardaze]

Yup. Shes a ticking time bomb. Wanda often flips between hero and villain and everything in between. She's unstable mentally, and emotionally. And her emotional outbursts are unfortunately demonstrated by her powers (disassembled; house of M for example). But she HAS to hit rock bottom, so when she finds herself again she can then have empathy for others to whom have fallen down dark paths due to their own issues. It's her whole thing and why she's so captivating. She doesn't view the world as black and white, but shades of grey and she now dedicates herself to offering help and comfort to anyone who's lost all hope, never wanting anyone to be left behind and forgotten like she was, regardless of the choices they made. Plus, it was pretty obvious we where getting a defiled Wanda when we saw her reading the darkhold in her cabin. Even heroes like spiderman have been defiled from reading the darkhold.

[@BibleAlivePresentations]

She would be dead and under her agency... But Wanda Maximoff will play a crucial role in the resolution of the Multiverse Saga. How does she return? This movie shows us how: the Space-Time Platform of Victor Von Doom (25:58). Plot of AVENGERS DOOMSDAY: An incursion has been triggered by Monica Rambeau, who finds herself stranded on parallel Earth 10005. As universes collide, Captain America Sam Wilson and Captain Marvel Carol Danvers lead the New Avengers of Earth-616 in a battle against the X-Men from Earth 10005. Meanwhile, Victor Von Doom uses his Space-Time Platform to intervene before the Scarlet Witch can take her own life. He convinces Wanda that her destiny and redemption depend on her destroying the Kangs and the TVA, which he claims have "defiled" his Platform and disrupted the Multiverse. Empowered by a Multiversal force of adamantium-shelled Ultrons enslaved to Doom's will, Wanda carries out this destruction. Consequently, infinite incursions are triggered, causing the unraveling of Loki's Worldtree and leading to the death of Eternity. What’s next? 1) SPIDER-MAN IV 2) DOCTOR STRANGE: TRIUMPH & TORMENT 3) AVENGERS: SECRET WARS

A lot of people really hate what they did to Wanda's character in this one. I get that it's the Dark Hold corrupting her and all that, but her problem had such a simple solution... Talk to America. Talk to her, teach her to control her power. Find a multiverse earth where her children lost their mother and step in before anyone knows. Just take over the life and replace her. Or find the kids and explain the multiverse... that they lost their mom, and she lost her kids, but they can be together. All she had to do was ask for help.

[@lokithecat7225]

Or explain that their reality is written by incompetent idiots, who have no interest in her.

[@mattgarrett2583]

they tried to solve that when Wanda says "What if they get sick? The multiverse holds the cure to every disease and illness".. basically she's terrified of getting her kids back and losing them again, it's in my mind a little bit of a cop out. When life doesn't go perfect like her WandaVision she'd just dip to another universe and I imagine keeping versions of her kids that weren't "perfect" like pokemon in a wanda jail.. Like in the 1991 flim "The people under the stairs"

[@DeanStrickson]

Yeah, that would’ve made an exciting movie. Stories need antagonists. It’d be Snoozeville if they just talked about their issues over some Starbucks.

[@kennyteeology3526]

You can't expect a mentally ill character to act rationally. This movie just came off a TV series where Wanda was torturing thousands of people for weeks and the Dark Hold made her grip on sanity even worse. This is totally someone who would just agree to a solution over lunch...

Wanda is supposed to be dead but you know it, Marvel. And Wanda/Scarlet Witch lost everyone she loved. it broke her. That's why he wanted no matter what to have a happy ending. 1. she lost her parents in a bomb attack. he was buried under the rubble with her brother and dead parents. 2. she lost her twin brother. 3. she killed the love of her life Vision, and then she had to watch to bring it back to be killed again.4.

Partially true. Mostly, though, he didn't trust that she'd be able to hold on to them, and he thought he'd be able to keep the monster from getting them if he were in control. More of Doctor Strange's control issues since even before he became a wizard. He knew it would kill her.

I mean, in WandaVision she brainwashes and enslaves an entire town for (at least) weeks, and makes a clear conscious choice to continue even after becoming aware of what she’s done. She was already a villain, even if she eventually felt a little guilty, stopped enslaving people, and ran away without facing any consequences.

[@VerneditheSnail]

Agreed. That always pissed me off. I hate when people defend Wanda & her evil actions, specially in this film, where she straight up killed a good dad (Reed) for no good reason.

it was less than a week. the time of day in the hex never matched the time of day outside. she only had westview under her control for at most a few days. she never truly knew the extent of what she did until the finale because that’s how deep rooted her trauma and coping was.

This was directed by Sam Raimi, who did the Evil Dead / Army of Darkness series, so his background is as a horror director. I went to a comic con a couple of years ago where they had a panel on the topic of showing things in this Dr. Strange movie that are references and homages to his previous movies. It was a lot of fun.

[@jeffblue19_2.0]

The original script for this movie was so much better. Wanda would have been helping Strange and America most of the movie against the villain Nightmare. In the end, she would have taken the Darkhold and gone off to find her children. It would have been a much better continuation of her story arc in WandaVision instead of just being an instant villain like what we got.

[@damian01061973]

This movie was rewritten almost a dozen times and it really shows....especially with Raimi just phoning it in.

[@silverlobo2135]

Franchise Friday Ashleigh That is NOT "Amy Adams", That is "The Notebook" actress, Rachel McAdams. The "Cow man" is called a Minotaur. yes, "pizza guy" is Bruce Campbell. GREAT to see that "Big Brain" Ashleigh showed up to watch this movie and understand its intricate subplot and meaning of the movie. IT is another remarkable event watching you arrive and decipher the different nuances within.

[@nintenmetro]

1.) In dimension-838, the Ultron program was a success. They’re fulfilling their true purpose and not going mad with power. 2.) The Illuminati made their comic debut almost 20 years ago. Just like in this movie, three of the founding members were Black Bolt, Mister Fantastic, and Professor X. Two of the other members were Doctor Strange and Iron Man. For this film, the latter two were replaced by Captain Carter and Captain Marvel. However, this version of Captain Carter is not the same one we met in What If. Also, Carol doesn’t become Captain Marvel. The mantle instead falls on her best friend Maria Rambeau. 3.) Until 2019, Marvel Studios legally (and ironically) couldn't use X-Men or even mention them or say the word "mutant" because 20th Century Fox held the film rights to them. However, after the Walt Disney company bought Fox's tv and film divisions, Marvel was able to take back the film rights to X-Men, Deadpool, and the Fantastic Four among other characters. As a result of the merger, the Fox corporation became their own thing. So they had to change the name of the tv and film studio. 20th Century Fox is now known as 20th Century Studios. 4.) The success that the X-Men cartoon had on the Fox Kids block was the reason that 20th Century Fox took a chance at creating the X-Men films to begin with. 838-Charles is visually a merger of both the animated series and the live-action films. Patrick Stewart portrayed the character again while also wearing the same suit and riding the same hoverchair as his counterpart from the cartoon. In fact, my favorite part in all of Multiverse of Madness was hearing the reorchestrated opening track to X-Men: The Animated Series when Charles arrived in his hoverchair. It’ll still be a while until you can get to Deadpool & Wolverine. For now, pat yourself in the back for having completed the X-Men film saga. In the meantime, X-Men: The Animated Series ran for five seasons. That story continues under the name X-Men '97. Some of the original voice cast returned, and two more seasons are in production. 5.) In other news, Marvel Studios is working on a new Fantastic Four film called The First Steps and it’s currently slated for Friday, July 25th of next year. It will be directed by Matt Shakman, the same guy who directed all nine episodes of WandaVision. And guess what? This new version of Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic will be portrayed by none other than Joel Miller himself Pedro Pascal. *By the way, Pedro wrapped up production on The Last of Us season 2 a few months ago. After that, he went straight to work on The First Steps. We don’t have an official release date for The Last of Us season 2 quite yet, but they’re looking to release it in the spring. 6.) And finally, Black Bolt is from the Inhumans show that unfortunately didn't do so well. However, there is one other show that does a much better job at showcasing who inhumans are…

[@RichardFay]

"Where did Cowman come from ?" In the comics, Wanda's story has been repeatedly retconned. In one version, she and her brother Pietro (Quicksilver) were nursed as children by Bova, a cow which had been genetically altered by a mad scientist called the High Evolutionary (and you probably thought that the MOVIE version was weird). The character of Doctor Strange was created by artist Steve Ditko. His work was full of Lovecraftian creatures, and other dimensional landscapes that looked like they were created by Salvador Dali on acid. A lot of this film reminded me of his work, and I don't think that was a coincidence.

[@strangebiped]

After Steve Ditko 'LEFT MARVEL' , JOHN ROMANITA took over drawing Spiderman & DOC STRANGE. I 'FOUND' STEVE DITKO ARTWORK was in "CHARLTON COMIC BOOKS", but it just was not up to the PAR as was Spiderman when he did that. Steve sorta' lost interest in his Comic Book Artwork as being just another 'GRIND HOUSE ARTIST' with a lousy paycheck. I miss you Steve, WE FANS ALL DO! I realize you are most likely in Heaven Now, but that's OK, WE LOVE YOUR SPIDERMAN!

[@yermatedave4930]

That's an entertaining theory, but I'm afraid it's incorrect. "Cow-man" is Rintrah, an apprentice of Dr. Strange in the comics who comes from another, slighty-Furry dimension.

"Cow man" is an actual character from Marvel, his name is Rintrah. He's from another planet named R'Vaal, and is what Minotaur myths on Earth are derived from (within Marvel).

The food cart guy that was sprayed with mustard is Bruce Campbell. You saw him in the Evil Dead series which was directed by Sam Rami. Sam directed this movie and it really shows, from the cinematography to the special and makeup effects. Sam also directed the original Spiderman trilogy where Bruce made cameos. (I wrote this before finishing the video, I don't know if she picked up on the deadite esq Dr. Strange.) Edit: At the end she did pick out it was Bruce Campbell. I am really glad she enjoyed this movie. It is one of my favorites.

Bruce is also the only character to defeat Spider-Man three times!
