WandaVision

WandaVision has started with the first two episodes (of nine) around classic sitcom length. They really went all in with the styles.

The turning to colour was obviously going to happen, so good to get it in the initial two-parter. And that tiny little bit in episode 1. As well as the shift to noir lighting when things get a bit real.

(And then the big fancy CGI end credits scene sending us back into classic MCU style on the way out.)

Olsen and Bettany do retro sitcom couple really well, so I don’t mind that we might be waiting a while for the 'real' Wanda and Vision to show through for more than the occasional moment.

And... a beekeeper? In the comics AIM HazMat suits looked like beekeepers but didn’t actually keep bees. Although there’s Swarm, a Nazi made of bees...

And a SWORD logo?
