I think it was Chekhov who wrote that you shouldn't bury a body in act one unless you're going to have it extradimensionally possessed in act three. Sage words
When they buried the corpse I knew it would show up again at some point in act 3. But I sure didn't predict how it showed up.

She was a pretty classic anti-hero in her show, not a villain.
Anti-heroes are usually amiguous figures who don't do and aren't motivated by the same things as your typical hero. There's nothing morally ambiguous about enslaving a small town and forcing them to participate in Wanda's little domestic fantasy. An anti-hero usually doesn't hurt innocent people though they often won't help them either. Wanda hurt a lot of people who didn't do any harm to her. She was the villain.

Wanda is an ambiguous figure because she created her fantasy town, kidnapping people to populate it, in extreme distress and with lots of unintended collateral effects she had no way of knowing at the time. It's pretty much clear she didn't intend to hurt anyone and was surprised that she was doing so. That's not your typical villain either.
 

so, watching it on Disney plus and I realized that before the battle at Kamar-Taj when speaking to Scarlet Witch and she offers to send him to a universe where he is with Christine he's speech comes haltingly like he was forcing himself to keep going.

As in, she’s trying to ensorcel him or he’s just trying to resist the temptation?

Loved the movie

Wanda destroying the Illuminati was epic although I wonder if the one under rubble was dead
I was sad to see them killed off so quickly, especially Captain Carter. But then that's just one universe's versions of them. There are countless other Professor Xs, Captain Carters, Black Bolts, etc.

I saw the movie last week.

I don't think I liked it. I say "think" because there's not enough of a plot for me to have an opinion. Somehow, it feels like the movie simultaneously has a lot going on but also doesn't really have much of consequence happen. It ends pretty much where it started.
 

Was unimpressed by this movie. Plot almost non-existent. Purely a vehicle for gimmicky cameos and flashy FX.

Best bit was when Stange tells Wanda his solution to Thanos was the only one [Wanda makes an Insight check: Strange is lying].
