    I know it’s been mentioned in the thread before but I think it beats repeating that in the comics, Wanda is not a mutant

    Magneto is not her father either

    I mean the continuity in the comics has always been so messy. They retconned her connection to Magneto and her origin numerous times lmao. But that was for different reasons under entirely different circumstances.

    Ike Perlmutter (head of Marvel at the time) wanted to basically write the mutants out of marvel comics and replace them with the inhumans because the studios didnt have the rights for them. And if you remember they even wanted to make an Inhumans movie in the MCU. Regardless of how that fundementally misses the mutants' point, we're way past that at this moment and the X-Men have been enjoying a very great resurgence in the comics.

    Pietro developed his powers through Hydra

    this episode showed that Wanda was witchy since she was a kid

    Another way of looking at it is that mutants power famously manifest during times of great distress and thats how she defused the bomb.

    People hating on episode 8 are simply unsympathetic people who can’t follow characters

    We just expected a more "Wandavision" lite episode than a backstory which I still liked. I never liked Vision or Wanda in the movies. After that backstory I find them good characters

    The problem is people confuse hype with ridiculous fan theories

    We’ve seen it before and we’ll see it again with the MCU. The backlash is coming but it’s going to be from people upset their awful fan fic isn’t coming to life

    Bro stay away from those MCU nerds holy they're calling for murder if you don't like an episode. I got comments and messages 4 am in the morning from idiots

    But why do we have a literal X-Men running around Westview then lmao.?

    Plus mutants arent that far off too, we'll probably have the team set up in three years tops, and we'll see some "naturally emhanced individuals" pop up in a few movies here and there. (FATWS and Shang Chi are a real possibility in my opinion)

    That'll be a disappointment. I feel like we aren't getting Mutants either. They're introducing witchcraft and Monica's superpowers into the fold and maybe Ultron

    If Evan Peters’ QS isn’t tied to mutants/multiverse then what’s the point of even using him? Unless he’s another character all in itself. It would be kinda wasteful if the real reason was just to trick fans, no? He was obviously one of the positives of FOX X-Men world.

    That would feel really cheap ngl. A multiverse fake out for the second time now in the MCU would be lazy writing. And why even get Evan Peters for the role when you can cast any other actor to f*** with Wanda's mind.

    Plus, it isn't any stretch of the imagination to think that the series that sets up the multiverse trilogy actually involves individuals from alternate universes you know.

    he very well could be QS.

    again its just my gut feeling that he will be some other character

    Having Evan Peters as just a random civilian would be the biggest waste in the MCU since... I don’t even know when honestly. Maybe since killing off ATJ

    Feige wanted to mess up Wanda AND the viewer

    I agree with everything you said. And in my opinion I prefer Wanda as a mutant with magneto as her father! It’s what I grew up with. I just think not a lot of people know that it isn’t the case anymore and it causes a lot of fan theories to go in the wrong direction, setting up for disappointment.

    Wanda becoming a mutant in the movies diverges from the comics in the OPPOSITE way they’re developing her character on page. It’s possible that’s what they’ll do but I don’t think it makes sense to expect that

    idk why i watch episode reactions

    im like "stfu stop talking"

    then why am i even watching this?

    I’m not saying that it couldn’t just be a way to trick fans and make them go “omg x-men???” but I just think it would be more dumb than funny if it had nothing to do with the what would be obvious choice.
