WandaVision (Episodes 1-4) Review – The Cinematic Schematic

February 04, 2021

The Cinematic Schematic interupts your normally scheduled film conversation-centric programming with a special look at the first batch of episodes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe‘s (MCU) first Disney+ TV mini-series, WandaVision.

To provide this review, episode breakdown, and Marvel Easter egg hunt, we are rejoined by Lauren Weingart AKA Video Peach. In our discussion, we’ll talk about what it’s like to reconnect with the MCU after receiving no new releases in 2020(the first in ten years) before taking a look at the upcoming slate of series coming from Marvel studios including Loki, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, What If…?, and many others.

How well does WandaVision launch the next phase of the MCU following the highest-grossing movie of all-time, Avengers: Endgame?

We’ll start by giving our initial reaction to the series as a whole so far before going through each of the first four episodes in a spoiler-tastic fashion. Then we’ll close out the conversation by making our bold theories and predictions for what comes next. 

According to IMDB, WandaVision:

Blends the style of classic sitcoms with the MCU in which Wanda Maximoff and Vision -two super-powered beings living their ideal suburban lives-begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems.
