Though I still don't know what is meant by a superhero landing... don't they land on their feet?

No, that's cats.

You're right, she's a fox.

what is three point handling?

I assumed he meant three point landing. Or what we now call a superhero landing (thanks Deadpool).

Ah, got you. Wasn't trying to be smart, I didn't know if it was some sort of acting technique.

So did I at first. It was a bit of a logical leap to guess that autocorrect had changed ‘landing’ to ‘handling’.

So what happened to Agnes?

Let's go old school:

And, yes, I meant landing. Sorry for derailing the conversation for a while...

And the significance was because it all got a bit crashy bashy (as Kermode would say) immediately after...

She got mind wiped by Wanda to always be in Westview as the nosey neighbour.

Not quite. Her personality is trapped within an outwardly acting figment of the Scarlett Witch's creation. A prisoner within her own mind and body.

That’s what he said. In a less geeky way

In that last scene Kathryn Hahn does look like that smile is being forced against her will. I imagine on some level she will be aware of who she was, and is screaming inside.

But doesn't 'Wanda's version' of Westview only exist within the red box which she collapsed- or did she free everyone else from acting out her version except Agnes?

I mean - spoilers, but this was my thought / question as well...

I think that she would just live in crappy downtrodden Westview as a saucy milf... mind wanders...

now there's an idea for a spin off series

We need more lesbian storylines for equal representation.

Is a series about a hexagon, propaganda for the pentagon?

I might have missed this bit but who put the letter on her car after visiting SWORD?

Was it supposed to be Hayward? Was he trying to push her into have a breakdown so he could get the energy for Vision 2.0? I notice that Wanda’s version was of visiting SWORD was a little different to the CCTV version Hayward showed earlier in the series

And for the people saying it’s not watchable you’re probably right, if you’ve never really bought into the MCU then you’re not going to be a fan of this. Personally I think it’s still watchable on its own but I can see how you wouldn’t engage with it as fully if you’re not a fan of the MCU or Marvel

I've finished this last night and although I'm not an uber fan of MCU and Marvel like some on here (I didn't know anything about the Scarlett Witch or Agnes for example) I really enjoyed it, glad I gave it the time, the comedy series episodes were well done and when the story got going it built up to a great crescendo. Very much enjoyed it, though I'm guessing there won't be follow up seasons.

On the other hand, as a massive Star Wars fan, I absolutely love The Mandalorian, so if was as big a fan of MCU as I am of Star Wars, I imagine I'd have loved this too, as it was, I just really enjoyed it.

Such a good series. Much much better than the Mandalorian. Which I've not watch past the first episode of season 2.

I like the fact they don't have to rush the story like they would if it had been an origins movie.

You're missing out, season 2 of Mando is way better than season 1, especially the second half of it.

Definitely and the final episode of S2 is probably one of the greatest things you'll ever see if your a star wars fan.

How I'd love to be able to go back and binge watch the whole series as if watching for the first time.
