Marvellous

On to episode 3 and have we now met the titular Power Broker? You'll note Abbi is uncharacteristically quiet part way through when, due to a computer issue, we lose her for 10 mins or so. Have no fear she comes back with gusto for the end!

Some links we mention in the show:

• Laura's recommendation of the Twitter account @ZemoDancingTo
• Abbi's recommendation of Daniel Brühl's film Ladies in Lavender
• Abbi's article on the lack of Asian residents on the Asian island of Madripoor
• Matthew's film recommendation Short Term 12, from Shang-Chi director Destin Daniel Cretten and starring Brie Larson

This week we get into the politics of the Marvel universe, whether the show is guilty of queer baiting and so, SO much love for Carl Lumbly!

Given we're 3 white Europeans talking about race in America, here are links to black writers sharing their take on the racism angles in the show - Charles Pulliman-Moore in Gizmodo, Princess Weekes in The Mary Sue and Alexis Nedd in Mashable.

Not one but TWO episodes this week, as we delve into Marvel Studios: Assembled, the behind the scenes documentary on the making of WandaVision. We also reflect back on the series and start weaving conspiracy theories for The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

And we got there, eventually! Fashionably late due to computers dying and...well...life we've reached the finale episode of Marvellous Wandavision! You may be able to sense the state of affairs for your hosts from the hysterical giggling...believe us this is after half of it was edited out!

Here's the link to Trigger's broom, as promised and if you're confused by the references to yellow crayons and dancing demons may we recommend a little show call Buffy The Vampire Slayer!

It's the penultimate episode of WandaVision! Lots of emotion and revelations, perhaps too much digging around in Wanda's trauma for Abbi, heartbreak for Laura and shockingly Matthew is right about something!! (NB No Wanda and Vision are not in their halloween episode costumes when they talk about defending their home in the trailer, yes Laura did go back and check because she didn't trust Matthew...)

The heartbreakingly beautiful replies to WandaVision writer Laura Donney's tweet can be found here and the image of Kathryn Hahn that Matthew thinks doesn't look like Kathryn Hahn here.

It’s fair to say the Marvellous team were a little bamboozled by this episode. We start off stating we don’t have much to say about it and then spend the next hour and 15 mins talking about it. Abbi is finding the ‘grey’ MCU hard to follow, Laura is nursing her list of punchable men and Matthew believes Marvel’s trailer makers sit on a THRONE OF LIES!!

And on to episode 4, with mixed feelings. Abbi has concerns about manners in the MCU but is loving the book content. Laura welcomes the return of the MCU proper and just has more questions. Matthew is disappointed that there weren't more bees...
