The description of Agatha as the Evil/Abusive Therapist may be the most accurate and my favorite thus far
"if you see a man screaming at the top of his lungs angrily and your brain goes 'that's domestic abuse' you have your brain a little too watered by instagram infographics"
Oooof as a domestic abuse therapist I was SO happy he pointed this out. I never saw vision as abusive and was shocked some people interpreted him that way. He’s having a normal response to being magically gaslit lol
i would like to add that people (not just men) yelling angrily is an actual trigger for me; so while it isn't always inherently abusive, it can be used that way. which is definitely something that was implied in that statement. so never mind lol
When someone is screaming, regardless of gender, I take it as a sign that things have gone too far.
I felt that “I don’t know who I am- I’m scared.” It broke my heart. Felt so real. Ive felt that panic/frustrated confusion.
@@jeanetten.s.8557 and when someone magically brainwashes a whole town, they are going too far.
7:47 this is also when the show stops being filmed like a 50s sitcom, which heightens the unease in the viewer! Up to that point all the camera positioning and movement had been constrained to what would have been possible for a 50s sitcom actually filmed in front of a live studio audience. This means a lot of wide shots and the cameras mostly filming the same handful of angles of the "house" since it would've been an open set. But when Vision's boss starts choking suddenly we get all of these closeups and shots that would have the camera placed on top of the table. The camera work takes us out of the 50s vibe just as eerily and effectively as the script and acting do in that moment and it's so cool!
Albeit most directors would never make such drastic switches because of the psychologicalaspect it supposed to bring- like going from wide shots to close ups can make the viewer more anxious as it gets closer and bring unease that its so different. This dissonance was precisely what they wanted to evoke I love it. I love the themes they used to make a fresh story. Marvel is great at this
Also the special effects. In the early sitcom episodes, the effects are all done using techniques they had access to in the time period. Strings and jump cuts galore. But during those unsettling reality breaks, suddenly modern effects are used, like the effect of Vision turning his hand intangible to save Mr. Hart from choking.
I LOVE how this show is so attentive to detail that most of not all apparent slip-ups in authenticity are actually very intentional to give the viewer that feeling of “something’s not quite right here” even if they don’t have enough knowledge of show-making to properly identify it.
This video actually made me cry. I'm sure you're not gonna see this comment since the vid is old now, but as a maladaptive daydreamer I really saw myself in Wanda. The feeling of wanting to escape in a fantasy that you've created for yourself is something I experience everyday and since I daydream, I get to do it everyday. Though the people I imagine aren't like those Wanda controls, the feeling of having that void even though you're surrounded by what you have created to make you feel whole is really familiar.
I think an added layer that you didn't really comment on is the fact that what Wanda is doing is essentially self-harm. To me, the creation of her children isn't just so that she can justify keeping Westview, but also so that the pain she feels once it all crumbles is stronger. Wanda is using Westview to not only fill the void in her heart, but also to punish herself for her own crimes.
Anyway, thanks for making this video. It was not only a really good analysis, but also like super fucking touching.
Yeah as another maladaptive daydreamer I related heavily to Wanda and when episode 9 came I couldn't fathom the thought of letting go of all of my daydream worlds and characters like Wanda did.
Like the strength Wanda had to say goodbye with (practically) no strings attached stuns me. I know if I was in that situation I would never let go, no matter how many people I hurt.
I think its a pretty good testament to Wanda's strength.
@@McLyTheChannel The stories are the only things keeping me afloat, but that's just me trying to rationalize it.
As an OCD sufferer with undiagnosed maladaptive daydreaming, i felt this on a personal level. I abhor Wandas actioms but i cant bring myself to hate her because i understand her SO much, the need to escape from your past and current personal and environmental trauma by any means nessecary, even if it means constructing people, places and ideas that are kinder to you than the world can be at times. Where your suffering is nonexistent or is actually acknowledged and helped. It........hurts but feels so good to see a character so viscerally entrenched in the need for control that has been messing with me within my own life.
As a fellow maladaptive daydreamer, this series hits *hard*. I’m glad someone else understands
I am a daydreamer too but is bee Terrible to my life I realized that I spent too much time dreaming Instead of chasing my dreams and then I kinda Dissociative from what I am living and I feel in a very big void
this might be my adhd talking but your videos are like. literally So fucking easy to understand?? i wish my classes were taught like this i would have all a’s lmao
Literally
I think I might have adhd or something similar because I understand this better than the English language itself.... And I'm an English speaker

Underrated comment.
"i dont pick how long the parts are" - video writer
i cant imagine them writing videos, this all feels like he's had an epiphany he wants to share (in the best way possible)
We live in a deterministic universe. The parts were ALWAYS going to be that long and CJ is, was & will be powerless to prevent such.
"i don't make the rules"
Lol
you ever notice how the the outsider in this made up sitcom is a black women? someone would be an "outsider" in a real sitcom of that time period
I suspect it’s more to do with them wanting to save a few minutes in future cap marvel related movies/shows by introducing the grown up Monica here
@@wetfishbits maybe
@@wetfishbits as much as I'd like to believe you're wrong I know you're right.
Omg I really don’t think it had anything to do with race. They just wanted to introduce Monica as a new badass superhero and this is how they did it.
@@user-gr1xi4kd7o i was just making an observation. chill
I kinda see elements of traumagenic maladaptive daydreaming in WandaVision. like, she creates a world in order to cope with her trauma and becomes immersed in it but it ultimately causes more harm
Oh so that’s what I’m doing
don’t call me out :P
Cant believe how quickly i jumped to watch a 30 minute analysis on a show i'll probly never watch i loveee the style of your videos
same
Why not watch it? It's great!
watch it!!
K... so you have bad taste in tv shows. Noted.
@@Myke_thehuman Or maybe the theme isn't her/his cup of tea, ever heard of preferences?
"New type of abuse just dropped" had me cackling :D
Lauren is soooooo talent. She is so freaking talented. I felt every word she said in my soul. She acted the FUCK out of those lines
Thank you bb
Man, this was good. I didn't pick up of the abuse and addiction themes. For me when I watched the show, I was thinking about how well it portrayed losing everyone that made you feel safe and just that desperate unmoored feeling that comes with grief. I completely felt for Wanda doing anything to escape feeling that. Your analysis was so on point. Can't wait for more videos!
The abuse part, I understood, adjusting free will to her wish is a special scary kind of scary, especially when Monica spoke about the experience of the mind control. But the addict theme is a special galaxy brain take I was so unprepared for but loves.
Woahhh I got chilling listening to the reading of 0:29 -1:52.
Same. Talented woman voicing Wanda there!
Right!?!? Who is reading Wanda??
Where can I find this reading!?
He says Lauren Mcginty (not sure if that is right)? From screen rant. In the last few seconds of the video.
I want to know who read it. The emotions that she heat me with her voice is unrealistic.
This is like a shit post, textual analysis and beat poetry mixed together
“u wanna talk power imbalance? imagine dating gOd”
This show hits so fuckin hard when you've got trauma and you've done the thing where you just . . . refuse to acknowledge it, and damn the consequences. I intend to watch WandaVision but I'm gonna need quite a lot of wine to cope with seeing myself in Wanda's blind desperation to be safe and not screw up and not hurt anyone.
this channel showing up in my recommendations out of absolutely nowhere is the only good thing the youtube algorithm has ever done. i laughed and cried. see you in grandma's backyard.
Truly this channel came out of nowhere but it's perfect
‘NEW TYPE OF ABUSE JUST DROPPED’ LMAO
This reminded me all over again why I kept arguing to have this show uploaded at once. I forgot about the children. I didn't realize that's why she did the Halloween episode and the chills would have been harder when the woman asked for her child to be let out of her room. I need to rewatch this in one day.
At the same time, there can be a lot of value in suspense too. You can always binge a show afterwards, but having it more drawn out delays the instant gratification and keeps it in your mind a lot longer, meaning you can interact with the show a lot more if you are chasing it. It is hard to not binge if it is available, even if you like the experience of not binging, ya’ know?
@@user-uu2cj9ct3j oh absolutely I agree, I just think there are some paced better to have a spread out release and others to be binged. Like the Mandalorian worked so much better on a weekly release. Ideally to me this would have been releasing a new episode every day, so there's still time to process it before the next and anticipation, but also not enough time to forget everything. I'm actually shocked no platforms have tried a daily release schedule before.
I also am of the philosophy that if a show matters to me, I'll be rewatching it for years or possibly my lifetime, so I don't usually feel guilt about binging when I choose to. That's just always how I interact with shows, like watching Firefly twice a year every end of the semester during college. Although you do make a good point, it's possible some shows have had less of an impact because I devoured it too quickly.
i honestly loved having it serialized, i watched it that way with my brother and then later all in one night with my friend and i enjoyed being able to stew in the theories and overanalyze every frame for a week before getting more. it really allowed me to digest and understand the very dense narrative
The serialisation of it reminded me of when that was the only way to actually consume show, and I do find that I like how the conversation gets drawn out over two months instead of it being a hot shot you have to slam in the first weekend to avoid spoilers before forgetting about it when the next sensation drops.
Your voice is oddly aggressively comforting. Like my Bostonian Dad yelling at me to eat something or I'll die
“The amount of used cups is the amount of push ups you have to do right now”
Don’t call me out like that
It's addiction, it's depression, it's craving an escape to your loneliness, and even more so it's being addicted to your perpetual pain. wanda knows its fake somehow. it's not the real vision, physically at least, and that balancing of knowing he's gone yet indulging in that fantasy is its own form of self harm
That comic narration was absolutely beautiful!! And the overall video was incredibly thoughtful and well done. I may actually take a break from anime and watch WandaVision after this!
Lastly I think I aspire to be an "Authoritarian Wine Mom"✨
Watch it! WandaVision is an emotional rollercoaster that'll leave you wanting more :D
Monica at the end saying how she could see herself doing the same thing to bring her mother back was such a mood. 😭 This character seriously got shafted by COVID fucking up the filming schedules, she deserved a much bigger role near the end, but that line was still nice.
I really appreciate you pointing out that during their fight Vision is having a natural reaction to not being treated like a person. Made me feel better because I basically screamed the same thing the same at someone relatively recently and I've been feeling weird about it.
I still don't get how anyone thinks the first episodes were bad. They were at the same time fantastic homages to sitcoms and psychological horror. From the costumes to the acting, the intros and the special effects made to look like effects from that sitcoms of that period they were just amazingly made. Just as the rest of the show. I'm glad they tried something new with this and the only major problem is the bait with Quicksilver beeing from the X-Men universe and how that is resolved. And maby the miletary guy beeng a bit too "generic evil dude".
"Like Simon Peter before her, she denies God *thrice*" you really made me dig up that sunday school knowledge but I subscribed so I guess it worked
This has such an overly edgy theatre kid vibe to it.
The voice actor for Wanda in the beginning was fucking immaculate
Definitely, had to watch it a few times because the performance was just so good.
@@thejadedjester4935 i can agree, she had no right to be that good,,

Did you make that?

If you didn't make that. WHERE CAN I GET MORE?!?!?!?
Edit: The intro actually inspired a google search spiral, and apparently Comic audiobooks and Motions Comics are a thing that exist.I genuinely did not know that people did that!
Completely off topic, but I've never actually seen Kristen Joy Schaal before and hearing Mabel/Sarah Lynn's voice coming out of a physical being was like a slap in the fucking face
Wait really? You should see if you can watch at least the first season of Last Man on Earth. She’s hilarious in that.
Was rent due for the Wanda voice actress because they really put their all into that 😳
3:26 bro thank god I’m not the only one that likes the first two eps. If anything they are my favorites episodes because they are just such a beautiful homage to the era.
also they made me really like and care about Wanda and Vision
I was surprised to hear that people say it takes a while to get good, because I thought it got worse at the end, I guess with Agatha
Oh wow these video essays are energetic and don’t use “stereotypical video essay voice” I love it.
"look around at the amount of used cups and do that many of pushups" [sighs, gets on the ground]
was about to start sobbing and then you said “how do magnets work?” thank you for breaking the tension LMFAO
I love how absolutely nothing is in focus at basically any point of this entire video. mood.
"If you're listening to this while driving, don't worry about looking at the road, look at me and trust your gut." I laughed so hard.
The voice actors on the intro are so good
It's interesting thinking of the situation like an addiction. Now that I see it, I think of the two times Wanda was willing to bring down the Hex in the finale as an addict giving up drugs. The first time Wanda does it, it is like an addict thinking they can just up and quit with no plan or support or anything to make quitting easier and ultimately cannot stop when it's too painful. The second and successful time, it in line with an addict who now knows what they are giving up and are now more willing to suffer the pain of withdraw, knowing it is for the best and willing to suffer through the withdraw to get to the other side.
bro Wanda is literally the embodiment of “gaslight, gatekeep, girl boss” 💀
Agatha was done so wrong in the end. Like damn, sis didn't deserve that. I felt so bad.
yeah! it sent very mixed signals
She could’ve been an anti hero and use her powers for good
I think they did her like that to set up Dr Strange
wtf she killed sparky!!!
@@StinkySister They literally set those vibes for future MCU films. I'm looking forward to seeing that play out in hopefully a Scarlet Witch film. The world deserves it.
honestly, i think my one criticism with the show was that it moved too fast. there should’ve been more episodes concerning her sitcom fantasy before it turned upside down with Agatha; and i personally think it would’ve been better if we saw everything from wanda’s perspective- horror uses perspective often, to show the watcher how insane, or messed up someone’s perception of reality is. It would’ve tied to the stakes of her altering reality and how horrified she was when she realized she did.
It’s criminal that you’re not the most subscribed account on CZcams. The algorithm favored me today and I’ve binged it all. Each video has been absolutely incredible! Thank you for sharing.
I'm in your exact position rn
Same here!
Soooo right! Im currently re-wacthing it all.

I started to get superhero fatigue after Captain Marvel and I thought that was it for me and the MCU. WandaVision actually managed to make me interested and invested enough to rewatch the entire Infinity Saga again and I’m so glad I did
"Wandavision takes a while to get good." Oh, so it's like most stories throughout human history.
Ok but CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE CHOKING PLEASE?! We get Mr. Heart choking, the FIRST sit-com reality break. Then at the very end Wanda choking the residents is the LAST sit-com reality break, because that's when she lets go of the idea of it altogether. Genius. Level. Stuff.
The only other occurrence I can recall is Agatha choking the twins, but that doesn't tie in as well thematically.
Would never have noticed, but then it's just mentioned at 8:00 like it's obvious and I was just like :O
Hi I’m pretty sure you’re actually psychic. I was cleaning my room while watching this and right when I started gathering all the dirty cups to bring to the kitchen you said “look around your room and the amount of used cups is the amount of push ups you have to do right now” I stood there for a solid minute very much convinced you could see me through the screen. And no I didn’t do the push ups.
listen this is the first time ive seen one of your videos, and im only 2 mins into the video
but the performance of who ever voiced Wanda in this is doing the absolute MOST and im genuinely taken back by how emotional this was??????? i hope who ever voiced this is having A REALLY GOOD DAY and they know how hard their acting skills go
AHHhhhhHH!! Wow, thank you so much! I'm definitely having a good day now thanks to you--I hope you are too
@@laurenmcginty6116 You are very talented 💕
I really felt Wanda's pain.
@@laurenmcginty6116 hope youre still having a good day a year later
I love your take on it.
I wouldn't exactly say it's addiction, rather denial, grief and depression (since that's what the whole production team went for) but the comparison to addiction certainly made sense as well
i feel like it’s both. the denial/grief/depression feeds the addiction aspect
well art is up for interpretation. art doesn’t necessarily belong to its creators it belongs to an audience. an audience projects meaning onto it. many things meant to be seen one way can also be interpreted another way and that’s not bad.
@@liamross340 absolutely agree! I just said that I personally feel it doesn't fully compare to addiction and that the creators went for a 5 stages of grief kind of thing, but i didn't mean to say he was wrong. As you said, it's up to the audience to interpret those kinds of things in various ways
@@ko-lq7vu agree. She turned to addiction to deal with grief. Her addiction allowed her to be in denial. The hex is her drug of choice rather than alcohol or other drugs.
“Don’t make me famous too quickly, you know how that goes” lmao
Wow the voice for Wanda is giving it a hundred and ten percent and I’m HERE FOR IT also wtf were the voices for prof Xavier
The WandaVision finale is one of the few pieces of media to actually make me cry entirely because what's going on is just so painful.
When this man said “don’t ask me how I know...but this is the look of an addiction, getting her FIRST HIT”😂😂😂
Cause why did she look eeeexaaaactly like that??!
SUBSCRIBED👏🏾😂
I actually teared up hearing that reading int he beginning and I teared up at the end too. Damn. This show really did something, huh
Something I wanted to add (I know I'm a month late) was that Wanda's comfort in sitcoms reminded me of Young Justice's M'gann. She too, feels out of touch and seeks out comfort in the simplicity of TV, abliet for different reasons. One episode when M'gann and Superboy are undercover, he vents this frustration he gets from her because of this, because she tries so hard to keep everyone going in the way she wishes, "...stupid little fantasy world where every problem's solved in half-an-hour!" Later in the series where she opens up about her hold on TV, this quote becomes phenomenal.
While watching Wandavision, this quote wouldn't leave my head. Up to episode 5 it fits this narrative, episode is over so are the issues. Its a parallel I found really interesting and I'm not sure anyone thought about it cuz DC cartoon crossover with Marvel live action show
Her head tilt right before saying “can’t I?” Stilllll gives me chills
Everything here is 100% correct

My favorite things about the laugh tracks in sitcoms:
1. When removed, the actors stand awkwardly in silence every time they make a joke.
2. There's always the one person in the live audience (if used) who very loudly, aggressively laughs at the jokes and you can always hear over everyone else if you listen.
that's it. in conclusion, sitcoms are my childhood. without them, I would not be the person I am today. Thank you Dick Van Dyke, for everything. Your show was subtly misogynistic but I forgive you, for it was the 60s. Now, Cheers, as much as I love you, you're overtly sexist and judge people's bodies, as well as the intelligence of one unnamed female main character. Ah, sitcoms. I have mixed feelings but I'll always love you.
The argument in A Very Special Episode was so raw and powerful. Like ugh, I love Paul Bettany
Mom: Remember, always say no to drgus!
Me seeing there are more CJ The X videos: Aww shit (preps arm)
I love how you completely didn't talk about all the stuff that goes on outside of the show in the military plotlines because they don't matter and are quite boring. good video though.
can't wait to borrow someone's Disney Plus acct just to torment myself with this apparent emotional masterpiece because CJ said it was good
This was amazing, also so many little details that I never noticed before - the halloween full of kids thing, the line where she says “you’re not supposed to-“ and trails off - chills man, chills
watching this after multiverse of madness is…wow. let’s just say u right💅🏽
I love how “Positive Marvel Critique” is listed in the trigger warning. And honestly, as an MCU fan, I think that is completely understandable.
Lauren McGinty did an absolutely ASTOUNDING voice acting job in this video, holy shit
the voice acting for the House of M opening had me crying real, genuine tears
As much as I empathize with Wanda, this video needs to be watched by those people who keep justifying and defending her with the: "sHe LoST EvErYtHiNg, I dOn'T bLaMe hEr FoR cReAtInG a NeW rEaLiTy tO bE hApPy, ShE's NoT eViL". Oh yes, faux happiness and joy can originate from unhealthy and abusive situations, too.
Also, who said evil couldn't be merely an unintentional behavior driven by fear and sadness rather than simple wickedness?
This is it
Depends on your definition of 'evil', really. Evil is sadistic, evil rejoices in doing harm, or at least doesn't care if harm is done as long as an objective is reached. Wanda's not it. She deserves blame, she should be held accountable, but the simple fact that the nail on her perfect world's coffin was when she realized the pain she was causing shows that she's not evil. Would someone who attempts suicide by car (because they are afraid and sad) and hurts an innocent bystander be evil? I think 'evilness' is one of those concepts where intention matters.
As a former drug addict I won't defend it but deeply empathize with it.
@@lorenagagamonster your statement is perfect
@@lorenagagamonster she did know to some extent what she was doing before the end and she preformed what ammounts to a lobotomy on the woman who 1. Broke her out of her delusion and 2. Wanted her to not have the power she had because as we’ve seen it’s dangerous.
The most evil thing Agatha does is sing a song about how evil she is which ends with her revealing she killed a fake dog.
That reading of House of M was amazing
That comic reading was intense, the girl doing the wanda voice nailed it
Wait, there were people who thought that Vision pleading for answers from a reality he has no memory of to his partner who is actively controlling everything and lying about it was him being a domestic abuser?!
Oh the world we live in
I've never heard someone so clearly pronounce it as "secksy"
"I miss drugs" they tell me in the preamble before going on to tell me about how addiction will make a monster out of us all
wanda is the true ✨gatekeep, gaslight, girlboss✨
“Look around, the amount of used cups you have in your room, is the amount of pushups you have to do right now”
Me: 👀💦
Bruh this voice acting !?!? AMAZING
meet you in my grandma's backyard can't wait to gamecubes
ps im fucking obsessed with you now so thanks
I kinda want to rewatch Wandavision already because there are so many things about it that I don’t feel like I properly absorbed in the first watch through. I accurately predicted that the screenplay writers were going to have more creative freedom in the new Marvel TV shows but it’s still cool to see just how far they’re going to go. I’d actually be interested in seeing a video on the evolution of Marvel TV from 2010 forward because there have been shows that no one talks about anymore even though they are just as good as their modern descendants, like Agent Carter.
THANK YOU for defending the first few episodes!! People don’t appreciate slow building horror and tension, and these did it BEAUTIFULLY. I also just loved the set and homage, and they were fun
The line about Vision having a normal reaction means more to me than I can express. I don't go to church, but here I am on a Sunday morning, getting a little absolution. Thank you. 💜
IVE BEEN BINGING YOUR VIDEOS THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS AND I THINK IM IN LOVE WITH YOU. OPENING MY EYES WITH A GAY TAKE ON WHEN MARNIE WAS THERE TO QUOTING A LINE FROM CARLY RAE JEPSEN'S POP PERFECTION ALBUM *EMOTIONS* AFTER AN AMAZINGLY PRODUCED COMIC DUB FROM HOUSE OF M. how are you not super popular? is this your blow up???? I hope it is you deserve the world
the joke about the male gaze/gays was the best thing I've heard in over 4 years of studying film, that was excellent!
This video made me fall in love with the show all over again. The way this video is presented is so succinct and logical and grounded in emotions. I'm so glad I stumbled upon this
Exceptionally impressed by that performance of the first few pages of House of M. Incredible how just translating it into spoken words added so much weight and depth. I remember that scene, I’ve read it several times. The emotion of it has never hit me as well as hearing it spoken aloud.
lauren read those lines amazingly
Thanks
