WandaVision: Every COMMERCIAL Explained | DR STRANGE Connection
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- WandaVision has been a terrific Marvel Cinematic Universe story--but it's also a deconstruction of the TV sitcom. But the most cryptic part of the show is the commercials that run in between 6 episodes' act breaks.
In this video we explain the symbolism in the commercials, and hat they mean to Wanda, Vision, Agatha, HYDRA, and the Avengers. we also speculate on what could be causing them. Is it Wanda's subconscious? (probably) Some distant galactic force like her Scarlet Witch vision? (could be) Or is there a deeper MCU connection, and they're messages being sent by Doctor Strange? (sounds like fun)

Who do you think is behind the commercials?
Your mom
?
I think it's Tony Stark!
The commercials could be temporary nightmares from nightmare with the purpose of keeping wanda stuck in her reality.
Ryan you got way to much time on your hands 😂 it's safe for you nerds to drive into the 🐇 hole this deep. 😂 just kidding Ry. Great video as always.
Hey Ryan, look it's your mom 😂
A freaking TH-cam Ad popped up during this video & I was so thinking: "What? I don't remember this commercial in the show."
You don't remember the squarespace ad in episode 6?
I got an ad for tampons. WTF?
I got an ad of Grammarly
Same.
It was an ad for a laundry detergent 😭
Notice how the yogurt commercial seems to correlate to Agatha sucking the magic from the witches back in Salem. It's as if she said 'i took yo-magic' having them rot away like the boy in the advertisement.
Except, Wanda wouldn't know that
The comercials relate TO Wanda, Only things she knows about
my assumption is
the boy=wanda
the crab=Agnes
notice that after the boy speaks his sadness the crab pops right up and actually is pulling the strings controlling the movements of the shark. even the crab leaves when the shark leaves
the shark = pietro
the shark speaks in a slang the same exact way pietro spoke when he first appeared 'yo'
the commercial also aired during the pietro appearance episode
Your magic, the snack for survivors(Salem)
@@calltyshon this is genius!!
@@calltyshon That actually kind of makes sense.
"Ask your Doctor about Nexus" lol... if that isn't super direct. WE GET IT, STEPHEN
I would love some Dr. Strange from this show. The TV format gives characters a lot more room to be interesting.
No, it was to tell us that she's a nexus being. The other commercials were traumatic memories
@ yea but why would she have vision's memory? She wa wasn't there and didn't know about that. She IS a nexus being though
The Nexus from Star Trek generations
Didn’t Dr. Strange was referenced indirectly via the Sorcerer Supreme?
When wanda says “my husband and his indestructible head” we all know thats false because his head got destroyed in endgame it’s Wanda’s way of coping/coaxing herself ig
I thought she said something similar in infinity war , before he got stabbed by the glaive lol
vision wasn't in endgame .
By most measures it is indestructible, unless you're Wanda or thanos etc
@HashmatDaBEST *Infinity War
🤣🤣
Obviously, it's some sort of marketing corporation trying to profit off immense pain and suffering.
So, Nestle.
Final episode, her phone rings "we've been trying to reach you regarding your car's extended warranty "
Or Coca Cola
disney. need i say more?
@@sm00rezd yup... sounds more like Disney lol
Haha hello kids buy my mouse merch
Turns out the actor Paul Bettany was so looking forward to working with was...Paul Bettany.
it's been Bettany all along
@@droolingstar7577 always has been
This comment confuses me so much, WHAT DO YOU MEANNNNN
I'd prefer that these are Wanda's own subconscious trying to help her. It wasn't Agatha that created the hex, it was Wanda. It's not strange trying to get her out, it's Wanda. She's both her own greatest threat, and her own savior.
Agreed, plus its her show and to have dr strange come in like that I feel would steal her thunder
The problem with that is Wanda will never see the commercials because she never has seen Wandavision....
That kind of meshes with Ryan's earlier theory about "two" Wandas.
@@Persephone_Personified that's what I was thinking like... is her subconscious screaming at her that it manifests into ads? no way Wanda would be okay with her trauma's literally being shown without her noticing... or that she chooses not to see when they happen to play out?
@@Persephone_Personified I don't think it matters if Wanda sees it or not. It's her subconscious that's creating the broadcast in the first place. She's creating her perfectly curated life, but I'm not convinced she's intentionally broadcasting it. What do you think?
So Rachel McAdams was dating Dr. Strange, not her character Christine Palmer? That's some multiverse level madness right there.
Whoooooa..... Me-Ta!!
LOL. 😆
I came here to say this
I’m literally watching a video about a person analyzing commercials...
Fake commercials, at that.
@@deanospimoniful and Tyler durden
I've lost control over my life too
Yeah, the Nostalgia Critic does a far better job at that.
In a sitcom within in a web series
ScreenCrush: "As you can see, these characters are breathing. This is foreshadowing a character being out of breath in the final battle." LOL
YES, haha!
Agatha hasnt been controlling Wanda. Agatha is trying to figure how she did what she did. So she’s been manipulating situations to try to get Wanda to wake up. She says specifically that in the last episode
Correct she had no control of Wanda except in her basement
@@buchichu7034 she is mad bc she needed years for the smallest Illusion and wanda is doing all that crazy shit without knowing how
Then why did Wanda say "I don't know how this all started"??
I wonder whether the deed to the property was setup by someone other than Vision. Early in the show Wanda and Vision discuss why Vision would need to be abbreviate words when he has super speed. Bit of a stretch of course, but would the abbreviation be a mistake by the actual culprit, who could be either of Agatha or Hayward or someone else involved in a scheme against Wanda. The fact that Agatha has a house containing an extensive and old looking basement layer for her witchcraft within throwing distance of Wanda's property seems like its more than coincidence. Perhaps the neighbour that both of them share, Dottie, had a hand in the setup?
@@SaipraveenSeva Repressed memory to fit her illusion.
Auto generated subtitles: "Let's talk about the commercials in Juan division."
Man I love me some Wand Division
I think the commercials will be one of the many things the show will never address or directly answer.
Well, the show has done well on addressing its mysteries so far. I'd say odds are 70/30 in favor of the ads being explained/being a plot point.
@@Yodah97 I agree. I think when the cameo happens the whole show thing will be explained
@@Acrophobia2 Paul Bettany revealed that the cameo was himself as white vision. Unless he's trolling.
@@harrisonvmaq oh...well that’s lame...
They explain the pain in her life. It's pretty simple
Seeing Chris Pratt listening to someone saying he is watching IronMan 2 on his phone, not knowing He is gonna be helping him on Titan fighting Thanos, is something funny.
The energy radiating off the book is definitely a different color than Wanda's energy, right? It's more orange than red.
Yes. I've compared them side by side and that book has orange juju not Wandas red wigglywoo magic
Yup
Oh hey. That might be how Agatha is limiting how much Strange can interfere here. It looks more like the color of the magic in his movie. And it's hard to believe that Agatha could infiltrate Wanda's reality easily, but Strange couldn't do the same. If he wants to be there but can't, it should be because Agatha is in the way.
Yes, it is orange. But I think that means something and is still related to Wanda. The witches of Agatha's old family/group thing all used a light blue magic. Agatha overpowered them using her dark purple. Wanda has a dark red magic, which has the same relationship to that shade of orange that Agatha's purple had to her mother's blue. I think that this means Wanda's power is related to and is stronger than the magic surrounding the book. Perhaps orange magic is stronger than blue or purple, which is why Agatha can't open the book, but since Wanda's chaos magic is stronger still, she can access the book and all the secrets it contains.
It also looks like the background of the doctor strange 2 title card
I can't imagine Dr Strange being in the last episode any more than tangentially. If he swoops in to save the day, it's too deus ex machina
Not necessarily, if they make him suddenly solve everything, then yes , but if they do it correctly and have him just show up but not be able to just fix everything
Hes in the trailer, and they have tied this to multiverse of madness. So expect something significant.
@@joeycrow so was it significant?
its a marvel character in a marvel show i dont see any deus ex here
Doctor strange is underpowered compared to alga or whatever her name is first meeting strange will get his butt slapped
Gee, Dr Strange sure has something with Thyme
Underrated
Nice, love that herb.
I hope I never run out

@@ETR-252 r/woooosh
It’s clear now, that the child is Wanda, and she can’t access Yo magic (her magic) because when she tries to access it, Agatha drains her and she ages and looks withered like the child on the island.
Lets not forget: commercials are TERRIBLE and we HATE them, traditionally. Wanda would hate these.
Great point. No one likes ads.
Good point. Growing up, she would not remember ads for American things she could never dream of having as some type of fond memory.
She watched dvds why are there even commercials
That used to be true...
Then Ryan Reynolds happened.
@@carterme5803 As a child. There are commercials because she watched the shows as an adult too on normal TV in the US. Eastern European OTA signal had commercials as well.
Issue about Doctor Strange messing with the time periods is that he doesn’t have the time stone.
I just noticed that
Wanda can however manipulate time, so he isn't even needed
Lagos: "for when you make a mess when you didn't mean to". Reference to how Wanda DIDNT MEAN TO kill all those people in the civil war
I’m sorry i have trouble accepting that Doc Strange can’t get somewhere that baseline humans can.
He can get inside the hex but doesn't want to be affected or changed by it.
@@legogenius22 yes unless you a strong willed black woman who went through twice. Being the fuc#%ing sorcerer Supreme doesn't mean anything compare to that. Duh
@@theinsurance2450 rofl best comment here XD
It’s a magic hex. It’s been clearly established that there are spells that can’t be broken by other wizards and witches. Perhaps something about the hex is specifically locking Strange’s physical form out-until it starts to weaken in ep 8.
@@theinsurance2450 that’s the thing though. First time she went through she was subjected to the false reality. If she hadn’t been thrown out it’s unlikely would have ever got out from under Wanda’s spell.
Also if Dr Strange just showed up, Wanda probably wouldn’t have taken that well and things could have gotten much worse. We didn’t see the two interact in Endgame but she probably knows who he is and would recognize him.
So for him, he has to decide if showing up would be something that he could safely do, and if showing up in person would be beneficial. I imagine if Agatha can remain free of Wanda’s influence, so can Dr Strange. Also, he’s probably aware of Agatha’s involvement as well, so he has to decide if coming in like a cannon against one witch that can rewrite reality and another witch hundreds of years old who’s got some fancy book he probably wants. I bet he wants to save Wanda and make sure he can get the book before Agatha runs off with it. Dude is playing chess here taking the problem apart like a surgeon.... if it’s him which I hope it is
Anyone notice Brad Pitt in the background when they say “For the Children” he pops up for a single frame. Look behind Wanda head to the left.
I noticed that too! I think it's @1:46

@@anneblubaugh58 I’m a millenial and got depressed twice. Oops
Every time you say the book is emanating with Wanda's red energy I wonder if I've made up the color "orange" or we've gone back in time to when people thought orange was just another shade of red.
People see what they want to see sometimes. It always looked blatantly orange to me.
It is definitely orange. I don't think there is an orange mind stone? Wanda's color is red and Vision's color is yellow -- red and yellow blend to create orange?
I think this guy is colorblind, he does that all the time , he called a purple , blue once lol
@@RoxDZoro It is possible. My steppie is color-deficient and has trouble with purple/blue and orange/red. There are corrective glasses now, believe it or not!
Isn't it scarlet red though?
The male actor looks an alternate universe version Charles Boyle
Just watched Age of Ultron. The scene where they're at Clint's house, Thor remembers his "vision" and suddenly the toaster goes off. Didn't notice that before. 😁
@Christa Simon It would have been better, but Ultron was hard enough to sell as is. Putting more focus on the Twins would have made Ultron seem like an extra in his own movie.
I also watched it recently and didn’t catch that... I love hearing about little details that just make it so much better!
The little hungry boy struggled to get the survival snack open, hence not being able to eat it lead to his death. I think it co-relates to Wanda struggling with her reality hence leading to further destruction
Honestly, I'd love to see Wanda and Dr. Strange working together. Strange is an academic, obsessed with order and almost resentful of his emotions. Wanda is absolutely chaotic with her powers more or less fueled by her emotions. It would make quite the odd couple.
A most unusual couple
Guess we're getting that in the new movie
The autogenerated captions wrote "Wandavision" as "Juan Division" lol
Is it just me or in the "for the children" sentence there is an inserted frame in the right bottom of the clip?
yup its brad pitt from fight club. he put one in last video. It happens like 3 or 4 times in the movie Fight Club thats why he's doing it
I can only confirm this because he did it in a prior video and I paused it to confirm it was, in fact, Tyler Durden lol
@@aidankraemer8273 but why is he doing it?
He's done it in the last few videos. You're not crazy.
Tha's your mom.
Did anyone else see the single frame flash of Brad Pitt from Fight Club at 1:47 and 4:01 ?
Well played ScreenCrush
I kept wondering what that was
I was looking for this comment… I was a bit perturbed . Kinda creepy if you ask me 😭
Just 2 days away... After that I will need to take Nexus
mood
My belief with the commercials starting to become more honest is that it’s around the same time Wanda starts coming to terms with her grief and the things she’s done. Wanda was in fact processing what was happened through her creations of Vision and the kids. It’s when Agatha starts meddling more and influencing the world to try and figure things out that artificially extends everything. The commercials are her subconscious healing her trauma while also acting as sort of anti-bodies to outside influence.
I'm deadass waiting for Friday like it's a birthday or sumn
i dont even hyped for my birthday like i hyped for friday
me tooooooooooo
My birthday is this Sunday but yeah I'm more hyped for Wandavision tbh
@@VVM2024 happy early bday to you

I don't think that Agatha's book is emanating red energy, it looks more orange to me.
Is there an orange time stone?
@@therealJamieJoy yes, the soul stone
@@brissalcido8534 which character(s) are associated with the soul stone?
@@brissalcido8534 OH, never mind I remembered Thanos got it from Red Skull. Maybe there is a tie-in??
@@brissalcido8534 oMG I just realized also that this is probably how Avengers can do a Guardians of the Galaxy film with Gamora having been sacrificed. Maybe she can be saved?
I tied all the commercials to Wanda going thru her past. The sound of the toaster is exactly like the rocket
When you get an ad in the middle of this video and immediately begin examining it for hidden messages
Dr Strange being the “puppeteer of the hero” in the only 2nd women-led marvel product... sounds like a bad look.
???
Marvel has had plenty of female led products over the years. Even if you're ignoring all the comics and just talking about the MCU, you've got the Captain Marvel movie, and the Agent Carter and Jessica Jones TV shows. And then there's the Black Widow movie that was supposed to be released before WandaVision, but got delayed by the pandemic.
@@rbbecker73 just talking about MCU though... the amount of women-led products are nothing compared to the mass of men-led ones
@@hollyc6025 Yes, superheroes have always been a male-dominated genre. But the original comment called this only the 2nd female led Marvel (MCU) product, so I was pointing out that it's actually the 5th (if you put them in their original order of Black Widow before WandaVision).
Don’t worry. This is a Disney movie.
Missing child on the milk carton right before the kids go missing!
I just realised that the toaster is blinking red in black and white
You just now realized that?
Same. It's funny the things you miss.
Bruh moment
I only realized it after episode 3 was out
Same.
I think it’s because her home was bombed at night.
Our night vision only works in monochrome so the only colour she would have been able to see if that red light
Keving Feige had confirmed that Doctor Strange was trying to comunicate with Wanda through the comercials.
"Dr. Strange's most prized possession isn't a magical artifact, it's a broken watch"
The cloak: 👁👄👁
I always just thought the Jagos add was based off of they quicker picker upper, Bounty
The yogurt commercial takes place in the episode where Vision sees that the people of Westview feather away from Wanda get stuck doing repetitive actions while in obvious distress, and the boy continuously trying to peel off the lid while never completing the action immediately reminded me of that. I thought that commercial was a warning that Wanda’s illusions were actually hurting people (in a later episode, it makes it clear that she wasn’t aware of this).
Other point of view for the yogurt: the survivor ends up dying because they fail to open the yogurt, meaning Wanda would die/fail if she fails to access her magic the way she needs to.
12:37 Am i the only one that sees orange instead of red?
Here you made an 18 minute video detailing all the subtle references and subtext in all the ads in Wandavision while I hadn't even noticed they were using the same two actors over and over
Same.
The energy emanating from the book has a orange hue, not deep red like wandas
Even if he's colorblind, those colors should look different lol
Yo magic to me was telling us about Agatha beforehand. She needs “yo magic” so she can live forever
The child wasting away on the island.
Withered like the witches is Salem. That's what I related to. Maybe a warning to her that the shark isn't really trying to help you. Like the purple witch.
the amount of effort put into this is amazing. but everything low key seems like a stretch
That's Ryan's bread and butter. Gotta look at all the angles.
I see you, Tyler Durden. You ain’t slick.
14:56 the drone was not 1st thing of color in the show, it was actually the blinking light on the toaster in the first commercial. Following the same point that you made in the video that the first encounter Wanda had with color was from the outside world that could prove that the commercials are coming from an outside area.
Knowing what we know now, why would the town want Wanda to have kids?
Was “for the children” the town trying to say that they want their children back?
Old comment, but the town wouldn’t want Wanda to have kids; Agatha would (to test if she can create life from nothing.)
It could’ve been the second thing, too, though.
I like to think that the commercials are being sent by Professor X. That’s probably not the case, but it’s fun to think about
This comment is so funny to me, considering she kills him in MoM lmfao
I like the Doctor Strange theory. I think it fits well. He can probably just insert the commercials as is, playing on the reality and subliminally feeding it to her in packages like therapy. This show is very inception regardless of if that's true because Agatha had a grift similar in nature. Really loving how this show turned out. It is following bold super hero dramas like Jessica Jones, Watchmen and Legion in the Easter egg, fan theory, meta-ness of it all, as well as the deep social commentary. It is a horror movie disguised as a domestic comedy drama.
Also notice how it’s West-view because just like in wizard of oz (owned by Disney) has the WITCH of the WEST side and Wanda and Agnes are witches
There are witches in all four directions actually - supposedly two are ‘good’ and two are ‘bad’ but who are we to judge?
Best video on the commercials I've seen so far. I really appreciate the "Dr. Strange is sending Wanda messages" theory.
Reed Richards would be amazed at the level of reaching in this video.
I really appreciate your breakdown videos. They always seem to have the most detail, explained in the most simplest way. Great job and great theories.
Strawberry corn flakes: the flakes represent how Vision’s pieces flake off when he exits the Hex 🙄
Why’d you have to add the eye roll, it was unnecessary
"Wanda is the same in all realities", 5 min later: "Maybe, it's Wanda from another reality." What?
It means she’s a constant.
As in she always exists in any given universe
This is the best breakdown of the commercials yet
This video finally made me realize how lucrative the "popular show theories" genre is for TH-camrs. They will say almost anything to get people like me to watch.
I'm always ready for more Doctor Strange. I really want home to be the person sending the commercialized messages.
Also, still holding out for a Mephisto reveal as well.
@ScreenCrush - Could y'all turn on the subtitles? I have a better time understanding the videos with the subtitles.
The person who clipped out all thoes spoken "time" word in the Dr Strange movie shows dedication. I'm impressed
Is Agatha Shutter Islanding Wanda? Is she actually there to try too give Wanda the guidance she needed?
One thing not mentioned in this video is the connection between the sorcerer supreme mainly protecting Earth from threats from outside our dimension and Wanda's nexus-powers being from outside this dimension/reality. This supports the Dr. Strange theories. P.S. Your outro white doggie is adorable.
Imagine if Wanda had already met Agatha and realised her true potential as the Scarlett Witch before Infinity War, there won't have been a Endgame
She only fought Thanos once and she won. Now it makes sense. Thanos was lucky.
Agathas book looks like the background of the into multiverse of madness title card
"and the yogurt is Wanda's power" what a line
the soap ad was also an Easter egg for the brainwashing soap that Phil coulson talked about on Agents of Shield. It might seem far-fetched but it wasn't this right around the time that Pietro which may be the X-Men version of the character emerged into the MCU. This would make sense if Wandavision has the Multiverse and brought back Pietro, that it would also reference a pocket reality within a pocket reality. That's essentially what the framework was on Agents of Shield, where Phil coulson talked about the brainwashing soap.
1:47 Is the single frame of Brad Pitt a joke I don't get?
it's a fight club reference
@@tonycole340 Ah that would make sense, should probably watch that at some point
The amazing Ryan Arey does his dissertation on WandaVision commercials This is next-level stuff. Great job!
I'm gonna have to sit with this for a little while longer, but, my first thought is: "Does Strange's ability give him access to events he didn't participate in?" So far, we've seen him use a/the Time Stone in situations where he's been present, so, how would he have enough context around Wanda's traumas to want to influence her to do something differently? If his astral form is being scrambled by the Hex, how is he able to convey coherent, if subliminal, messages? I'll probably have more questions, but those are the ones up top.
I'm hoping someone can explain the flashes of Brad Pitt from Fight Club.
“But I have one final theory on who’s sending Wanda these messages...
.
.
.
.
It’s yer mum.”
What a twist!
I dont even know why that comes up everywhere 😫😂
That one commercial for the yogurt still gives me nightmares
I don't want Strange as "the secret hero", but secret ally might make a hell of a twist.
Yes, I believed after the 4th episode Strange was sending messages. The commercials were conversations between Wanda and Strange. Hence contradictory text and subtext.
It's interesting to see how WandaVision works way better with topics like feminism and sex equality than any of the new Star Wars made by Disney (except mando, obvsl)
They subtly make points instead of hammering us over the head with their politics like modern Star Wars
Nah, I thought WV tackled the grief of one person
I rarely like/comment videos. But the effort to cut every single "time" from the movie deserves it.
The stark toaster was ticking cuz the stark bomb was ticking when her parents died
Something I just realized and I’m not sure if it’s an oversight by marvel or intentional. But in the episode showing when she created the hex, it was weeks after the events of end game. She was in normal street clothes like pants, shirt and sweater. Throughout the show her clothes matched the period the episode was in. But in the episode where she walked out and threw the drone at Hayward, she was in the outfit from end game. Not sure if that’s an error or if that could be a hint at her split personalities. Her “golem” side is dressed in her last battle wardrobe, and her “Sméagol” side wears period accurate clothes.
The commercial when she gets off the bed freaked me out when I first saw it LOL
You're right, doctor strange sended message through commercial
No no, Ryan. NEXUS isn't meant to bring her back to reality. It clearly says "*your* reality," as in the reality that she's created for herself: your/her reality.
It says "Your reality, or the realitt of your choosing"
Implying it gives her the ability to decide for herself
this was incredible Ryan, thanks for making it!
The book is emanating orange energy.
I would like to believe these commercials have another reference: the now extinct Infinity Stones
Mind, Time, Space, Power, Soul, Reality
Lol lets be honest half of this is like beyond reaching.....
I mean, This is bettee than the other theorizers like Cosmic
Who tie everything to Mephiso, Cthon or the Xmen

So true
I really enjoy the way you analyze things. Thanks!
Everytime that damn "for the children" scene comes up you put some dude in a single frame, who is it? Hahha
Tyler Durden in Fight Club played by Brad Pitt
Omg, this is the Wandavision video I've been waiting for and it does NOT disappoint!!
A child is isolated and dies without access to YoMagic. I feel like that one is as straightforward as all the others.
