Agatha doesn't really seem "corrupted" by the book anymore than she was already, and she might have had the thing for years for all we know. On the other hand, I think the movie does a good job in its own scences highlighting how destructive and corrupting the book is....by its affects on other strange's in other multiverses. So I think the movie is consistent within itself, its just not necessarily consistent with Wandavision. On the other other hand, perhaps the fact taht Agatha was already pretty twisted means the book didn't have much it needed to do.The note about the "unexploded hydrogen bomb"....I do feel like one major element that was completely missing from Wandavision and this movie is... the utter incompetance of Kamotajj. There was a major magical event on Earth, and not a peep from them. Hell when Thor and Loki come to earth looking for Odin, Dr Strange immediately picks up on them. But an entire town gets mindcontrolled by chaos power and they are like..."meh".Now I can respect that we didn't want Dr Strange in Wandavision, and having some excuse why they couldn't get there "in time" I'm fine with, I can accept it. But they never followed up....never found out what happened, never tracked down Wanda to see if she was actually back to normal? I mean only SHIELD has shown that level of incompetance, and at least they were constantly being undermined from within by an evil splinter organization, what is Kamotajj's excuse?I would love if that was an actual plot point, Wong being critical of himself because of things slipping through the cracks, maybe we find out that the Ancient One was so powerful and wise that she had held the organization practically by herself, and without her leadership the Wizards are actually in a massive upheaval right now. Or maybe it was all going to hell even during the Ancient One's reign...perhaps that little bit of darkness she had been feeding on was making her just a liiiiiitle complacent when it came to certain dark threats, giving some interesting fodder for Mordo's arguments. That could be really cool to learn about....as opposed to "sorry wanda, should have probably looked in on you in the year or so since you had a nervous breakdown and enslaved an entire town with more magic than one witch should be capable of doing....our bad".</blockquote>
