Two years later, WandaVision remains the scariest title Marvel Studios has ever made, with legitimate jump-scares, an unmatched sense of dread and paranoia in its early episodes, and several unsettling details that were never explained by the show's producers. With his episode breakdowns on New Rockstars, Erik Voss made a name for himself for strongly theorizing that Mephisto would appear. While Marvel's devil stayed in the shadows, Erik still believes there was a hidden evil pulling the strings behind Wanda and Agatha, and it's time we meet that evil face to face.
Welcome to The Deep Dive, a new channel in the New Rockstars Digital Network. Hosted by Erik Voss, The Deep Dive is the destination for more pointed media investigations. From full seasons of Marvel streaming shows to cult classic films, Erik will dig to the roots of the hidden agendas beneath every title.

After 2 years, WandaVision is still incredible!
WandaVision is top tier. Hater going to hate
@@DeepDiveNR This is great!
Thank you🤗😎😀
Is actually 3 years
@@BryanRosas
That would be next year. It premiered in 2021.
2 years already????????

“When you’re drowning, just because you can see a lifesaver, doesn’t make fighting against the waves easier”
Holy crap Erik, that was beautiful
Since Shang Chi, I have thought that Billy’s and Tommy’s voices calling out to Wanda at the end was connected to the dark force that caused Shang Chi’s dad to hear his mom calling for help.
I thought that too at first
Ditto and did anyone noticed in M.O.M, Wanda was mirroring Thanos ?
@@nourhajj4999 How so? I’m curious to look into this.
@@ameer8966 Well, if you see re-watch some scenes with Thanos in Infinity War and Wanda's in Multiverse of Madness, you can see the similarities between. The whole speech of being "Mercy and Reasonable" literally to Strange, them using the Reality Stone/Or Chaos Magic to transformed someone into something twirls (Mantis & Mr. Fantastic), literally grabbing someone's throat (America & Vision) to get finally what they want until it will get backfired soon or later....
I agree, still love that idea!
A Wandavision review totally deserves my total attention for... 53 minutes and 11 seconds. As a matter of fact, I want a second part of this review.
I second this statement 😊
“For Dick it was nuts, for Wanda it was dick” something I didn’t expect to hear at 7am 😂 but nonetheless love this overall!!
😂😂😂 I was like “did I just hear him say that”
i had to replay it cause WHAT DID YOU SAY
I ugly laughed
Beat me to it😂
Lol Voss is wild on this channel 😂
The grief episode came the day after I had to put my service dog down for cancer. When Vision said the famous quote I broke down horribly, but in the most healing way. It was just what I needed. This series will always hold a place in my heart.
Love the breakdown
My dog Daisy passed away in August. She was my best friend and I do feel bad about it sometimes. But i remember all the good times I had with her and that will keep our friendship alive
@BirdNerd I'm sorry for your loss. The pain is a lot. I don't have kids so I essentially lost mine. I have tears of joy when I look at the pics from the years. I'm glad Voss really focused on grief. The anniversary of the day is the 23rd so came just in time
Love the breakdown. There really is something that needs to be torn from us in order to heal us. It's so strange but so true
I also recommend watching "the body" from Buffy season 5
@@stevenlefferts7591 I don't think they meant their breakdown, but the series breakdown!
It's funny that he said a lot of people didn't like episode one.. I found episode one and two to be the most intriguing thing about the show that wanted me to keep watching. It was so different and well done.
Same. I was instantly captivated and they're my favorite episodes. It is interesting how many people don't like them.
@@kittentalons every episode got progressively better after the amazing first 2 episodes.
So yeah, in a good series, the first two episodes should be the worst.
@@Faustained I disagree, I think they are better than most of the others.
I’m actually one of those who didn’t like the first two episodes too much. Only the really “wtf?!” Parts of those episodes had me interested, the rest of the first 2 episodes just felt like one of the old shows they were trying to convey. Wandavision is my favorite of all the disney+ shows though, with Loki coming on second.
Me too. I really liked episodes 1 & 2, they made me want to keep watching the whole thing
Love how Elizabeth Olsen is undoubtedly perfect as Wanda and how more details prove. Her early childhood has a deep connection to Wanda's own childhood-watching sitcoms on the side as the younger to her twins until she creates one of her own and in contrast she is the older to the twins in her story. Love how it balances out perfectly and loving DeepDive already, instant hit!
I'm so glad Saoisre Ronan turned the role down.
I still gotta say, this phase is heavy on grief that crying scene she had when she created the hex, and even Moonknight grief scene broke me down
Even re-watching it in this video does it for me
Moon knight hit me in a whole different way man, I was out here shedding silent tears for him.
I found it interesting and notable that Monica was the first one to identify that grief was the main problem, of course aside from Agatha, and that’s because Monica was familiar with grief; her mother’s death while she was blipped out 😢
Ah damn, all this “Mephisto confirmed” back then was so hilarious 😂😂😂
Happy that Voss might get it with Iron Heart finally 🎉
Elizabeth Olsen really has brought Wanda to LIFE💯
Seriously. I think her acting is phenomenal.
I regret binging all of these in one sitting. Not because they’re bad, but because there isn’t more. Fantastic stuff, Erik.
Ok ok, hear me out!! Perhaps Nightmare was somehow manipulating Wanda’s grief! Agatha knows this and they are both working together… With Nightmare being cut from Multiverse of Madness I can’t help but think they might save this reveal for Coven of Chaos?!?
WandaVision and Loki just stand out as the best disney+ mcu content to date. Let's hope we get more shows / special presentations on their level.
It was Mephisto.... I mean Agatha all along.
I just noticed in the close up of Mr.Heart choking u can just see Wanda’s fingertips moving as if she was the one to cause him to choke
The TV being left on after the bombing in Sokovia, I think, was Wanda's subliminal magic that was also controlling Westview. The TV being on was a way to she could control grief, or maybe, Grief controlling her.
One of the best parts of marvel studios last phase. Loved this show.
Agreed. And THE BEST for me.
@@DeepDiveNR please do a breakdown of the owl house season 1&2&3 and the runes that luz made
Too bad Multiverse of Madness soiled all the character growth in this show. Raimi didn’t even watch it…
Wandavision is still my favorite TV show and wanda is my favorite character after this.
The story touched me, because of its underlying message about trauma. Wanda used the hex to avoid her traumatic past. But by the end is forced to confront the reality of all that has happened to her. This leads to personal transformation in her and owning her power (literally).
I think that is something that touches many people. I know it touched me deeply 💕 love the creators of this show.
Those theory videos from wandavision days were the best.
It was the best of times it was the worst of times……when we didn’t get Mephisto…..when it so obviously was hinted at crumb crumb after crumb…..I felt for Voss. Lord knows they came for him after all that.
Olsen deserved tons of awards for her performance in the show.
I'd like to see a Deep Dive into Bucky and Sam! That show was maybe the weakest of the Disney+ shows we've gotten, but there are still changes that happen. Maybe a deep dive into how Sam finally accepting the title of Captain America, or a deep dive into how Bucky overcomes his past as the Winter Soldier?
I’d like to point out also when Agnes says “She has no family. No husband. No Home.” We think she’s referring to Geraldine, but she’s actually talking about Wanda. No family; they are all dead; parents and brother killed, No husband; she’s not married to Vision who’s also dead, and no home; her home back in Russia was destroyed by a Stark warhead.
(and she "lives" in an empty foundation, not a home, just the shadow of the hope of one day owning such a place... now pointless as the one she wanted to use it with isn't there any longer.)
The time when wandavision was comming out is so nostalgic to me now
@@GZP1023 yea but it was a complete different vibe
Yeah it was also the return of mcu after being gone for 2 years
I consider it the Golden era... Those first few shows from Wanda Vision, Captain America and the Winter Soldier, and Loki all spoiled us.
Crazy days.
it was so long ago
Wandavision truly jump started the breakdown/analysis wave of YT channels and content creators, including Erik Voss!
@@GZP1023yes but they got WAY more buzz during Covid era. Genius
Dont listen to this ass hat ^ Eriks breakdowns of this show sparked memes. I think this really popularized the breakdowns a lo with the whole mephisto speculation. So to most this is where it really started.
@@GZP1023 Haha no shit gEniUs. I just said it jump started it because it was during COVID. Ntm Erik was doing breakdowns of other films too.
@@GZP1023 i think i know more about american girl dolls than you, genius
@@thisdayisbananas eew
I have to say Erik your breakdowns made Wandavision a lot more fun for me
This is already one of my favorite TH-cam channels! Wanda is my favorite character in the MCU so far, and I loved this deep dive into WandaVision.
I think it might be cool to do character analyses of characters as they progress throughout the course of the MCU. One of my favorite parts of this video was how you used Multiverse of Madness to inform your breakdown of WandaVision. It would be cool to see characters' arcs throughout the many movies they were involved in. Especially with characters that don't have their own movie(s) like Hulk and Wanda, and some of the more minor characters. 😁
PS. That intro was everything! 🤣
I can already tell I'm going to be thoroughly entertained today. Great channel release
This is hands down the best series from marvel and definitely in the top 10 of Marvel projects for me. An original concept with a compelling story and attention to details. I love it.
WandaVision is an absolute gem. Listening to this deep dive brought back all of those feelings.
I love WandaVision so much. Elizabeth Olsen is amazing especially in those early episodes. I always think about that dinner with the Harts where she's in her early sitcom higher-pitched voice and then goes to her regular voice to tell Vision to help him and back to sitcom voice like it's nothing. Really looking forward to more videos.
I can already see this channel doing big! Absolutely incredible Voss! Good luck in the future!
That shot of Vision at 22:59 is definitely a Kubrick nod. It has Jack Torrence energy.
You passed up my favorite line, when she tells the boys, "thank you for choosing me", which led me to believe they are real, I’m a bit sad they didn’t go that direction in MVOM and actually finding them again
I feel like the beekeeper is more related to the wanda being the queen bee and she has all the other bees working for her, in this case the entire town. Sword being the beekeeper trying to save the "bees". And it goes perfectly as a bee metaphor to all the hexagon shapes. Thoughts? @erikvoss
One thing this video made me realize is how bad I want Erik Voss to sing the entire “Agatha All Along” song
Your comment on the piano intrigued me, and as a VFX artist, I took a look and I think I know how they did that, the whole time, the prop is the flat board, the leg that you mention Erik, is in fact the CG part, right before she lifts the piano, you can see it slide slightly to merge with what I assume is the leg on the cutout, its clever because most of the bottom of the leg is obscured by the table so it's not a hard thing to do. Its very subtle but I believe that's how they did that little VFX trick. Hope this does not ruin the magic
Thanks for the Deep Dive, Voss! Wandavision is one of the best-loved and least understood shows from Marvel.
I heard lots of criticism for Multiverse of Madness, and Wanda's slide into villainy. What people don't understand is that you don't just "get over" grief and trauma.
You never really conquer grief. You learn to live with it. You never know when something, or someone will trigger you, and it's always fresh. The trauma didn't happen years ago, it is happening RIGHT NOW.
Dealing with loss isn't a straight line to emotional health. Sometimes it takes several twists along the way. Demanding that Wanda just "get better" shows a lack of empathy, or just the audience too used to plots tied up in 30 minutes. Like a sitcom.
Ohhh! 🤯
I mean, I understand that you don't just 'get over' grief but I still think the change from how Wanda was in WandaVision to MoM was abrupt. It felt like stuff happened off screen that should have happened on screen. Wanda was always going to go down the path of obsessing over getting back some of what she lost because of her unresolved trauma and grief, and I don't think the ending of WandaVision meant that she was completely healed. But her descent into what she became in MoM was still hurried imo so I understand why people feel like it detracts from what she learned and experienced at the end of WandaVision.
It would have been nice to see her at least struggle with truly facing reality and moving on vs. running after what she lost, or slowly become more and more embroiled in her grief and anger and her actions becoming more and more violent and calculated to reflect that. Instead she just goes from being a traumatised Avenger who saved lives and is clearly guilty about the deaths she has unintentionally caused in the past AND the fact that she brainwashed and mentally tortured hundreds of people, to just straight up being willing to murder a child to get to her own children back. To me there's was some missing character development for her to have gotten to the point where she just doesn't care about killing hundreds of innocent people to get her kids back.
And I know people say 'the dark hold corrupts people' or 'she's grieving and traumatised' but like, from a narrative perspective, to me (and a lot of people) that isn't satisfying, we want to *see* that progression and have it be meaningful, to see her trying not to hurt people and struggling to reconcile what she learned about grief and moving on with the reality of her trauma and pain and lack of support. I think that intial ambivalence before she plunges head first into unabashed villainy would have honoured where WandaVision ended, while showing the impact of repeated, unceasing trauma and loss on her psyche and worldview. The lack of that portion of the story makes it feel as if the Wanda we see in WandaVision and the Wanda we see in MoM are different people, at least to me. Or that there's a huge chunk for the story that we're missing.
That's my main critique, as someone who can firmly understand that trauma and loss are things that take a lifetime to recover from and even then, things you continue to carry with you instead of completely 'getting over'. You can understand and respect the gravity and complexity of those topics while still criticising the way this characters arc was handled. I would have been just as disappointed if Wanda was a-okay in her next appearance, because like you said people don't magically get over trauma. But they also don't typically dive head first into premeditated murder and child endangerment especially when they have very recently shown real remorse and pain at hurting others. Dealing with loss isn’t a straight line in EITHER direction. Wanda has all the building blocks for a complex, sympathetic villain, she has truly dealt with too much, too soon and with too little support to just get 'over' things, but she was a bit mishandled in her final descent into villainy imo.
@@Lisa_Flowers I lost my best friend to suicide and I went through several cycles of self destruction before I put my full focus on healing. Everyone handles grief differently
After watching this thoroughly deep dive into Wanda/Scarlet Witch and how grief informed her existence, it would be great to see a deep dive into Moon Knight and maybe a preview into where the character goes onto next within the MCU. Excellent deep dive!
In just the last couple of weeks I've been going back through this series, actually with my kids now, all of us are pretty much up to date on the storyline around Wanda and Vision, as well as Dr. Strange so this video is of epic timing. Like you I'm finding this 2nd round so much more enlightening as to so many of the intricate details, as you noted, the beauty of the end credit design for example. Bottom line, this entire series is a subtle horror/thriller story with a gut-wrenching dread of the loss/non-existence of children as well as lost love. It's truly a glimpse of deep pain and suffering on the part of Wanda and as we see going forward, how that transforms her into the monster we see in DSMM - another favorite MCU film of ours.
I haven't watched all of this yet so continuing onward - LOVING THIS SO FAR! Awesome job!
There are so many creators on here tearing down shows and movies. Here comes Deep Dive enhancing a show and making me like it more.
I’ve always thought that Mrs. Hart saying “stop it” was in reference to Wanda telling the scientists of S.W.O.R.D to stop with what they’re doing to Vision’s body.
Voss, you are in fact, a Boss. Grief as a Phase 4 theme? It kind of makes some of the Phase 4 "duds" a little better revisiting them! Dude this channel is amazing, NR is killing it, and we're all learning and growing too. ❤️
I was looking forward to this! WandaVision was incredible!
I'm already loving this channel!!! I can't wait to see what's to come!
Erik, this new channel is a game changer. It's obviously a HUGE undertaking, but you're doing an absolutely stellar job, as everyone would have expected. You're knocking it out of the park.
Voss, you did such a great job at showing all the little details and how they reflect the theme of the show grief. This show has a place in my heart because of how much I relate to Wanda's grief. When the show cane out had been 9 months after the love of my life passed away. I think the show was fantastic as a metaphor for depression and depicting grief in a unique way but still relatable to anyone who has experienced grief
Hats off to you man! All this hard work can't even imagine how long it would've taken to break down . This was epic though Erik! WV is my favourite Marvel Series . Do you think when Wanda returns she will work through her grief and harness her "inner angel "?
I love this already just seconds in!!! “and i still think i was right about Mephisto too”!😂❤
51:46. another manifestation of grief was the dweller in darkness manipulating Wenwu's grief and mourning
A deep dive into the themes of Moon Knight would be pretty good, especially when it tackled the themes of trauma.
Herb wasn't "about to say" anything. Agatha was controlling him in that moment. The point is to make Vision distrustful of that reality and Wanda so they separate and he tries to leave, which she successfully makes him do. That's why she did the thing in the car when she was wearing a witch's hat.
Amazing work, Erik! Shows like WandaVision deserve a deep dive because it shows just how more beautiful and intricate everything is. Already a fan of this channel.
Just noticed another similarity between Loki and wandavision, they both sing songs from their childhood, Loki in the pub to Silvie and Wanda to her kids
I've always appreciated your detailed Easter egg breakdowns. Definitely have been anticipating The Deep Dive debut, and it doesn't disappoint. That's a lot of D words. Congratulations on an excellent new project.
Still love this show and my introduction of Voss and Jessica ❤️❤️…I know some had issues with the series but still my favorite of the MCU series
Happy to see only ERIC explaining things! Being honest! Other host on rockstar may also be good, i always enjoyed only ERIC’ Breakdown! I am sure, this channel would surpass NR soon!!
This is easily the greatest breakdown of anything that I've ever seen in my life. Well done, Eric. Holy cow. All the details, the beautiful comments about grief and negative emotions... Wow.
Also, I never noticed the smirk after Agatha calls her cruel, either. That's terrifying. This breakdown truly shows that even without the end scene of Wanda using the Darkhold, her setup to be the villain in Multiverse of Madness is clear.
I didn't have any thoughts on, or excitement for, Coven of Chaos, but now I'm excited!
I hope they bring back Wanda at some point, as well. I adore her.
Loving this channel so far, it's extremely interesting all these details that weren't seen before and how deep we really can go into the underlying theme and hidden details
Have been and will always be on the Mephisto train with you Eric!
Incredible video Erik, Love this brand new channel a clear view of how big of a movie fan you are. Please keep them coming.
Can't wait to see the other videos you have planned.
awesome in-depth!! love it.
Love the content!! Very very much. I didn’t think it was possible to put more work in then you already were?! Thank you Voss!
this is soo good!!! Erik you're the man! I love this show SO MUCH!!!! And in great part thanks to you! Good luck with the new channel! :D
love these videos already Erik keep up the great work
Thank you for the longer Videos. Keep up the great work
Absolutely love your channel, love for film, humor, and vibes. Awesome content man.
Already I can tell I am going to appreciate breakdowns from this channel so much more than the more recent stuff from new rock stars. I love this more in depth philosophical stuff keep up the good work
If you don't understand why Wanda does what she does then I'm happy for you, cause you haven't been through true grief and depression.
You really made me appreciate this show even more man! You’re amazing at what you do!
This is incredible. I enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you!!
It was Erik all along. Nice New Jam
Yes! Deep Dive time!
My goodness I’m loving this channel! Love how far you go to dig deep…while diving. Awesome job!
New Rockstars channel, same old Rockstars ads.
But seriously this recap/explanation/whatever you want to call it was amazing. I didn't know I needed this until I watched it. I look forward to all the content this new channel brings.
The plant Agatha gives Wanda is actually Croton Petra, not Dumb Cane. Croton Petra has been in a ton of Disney properties lately - it's at Roxxcart in Loki and in the casita in Encanto. It's native to south India but grows well in Florida because it loves that humid heat.
I was coming to say the same thing!
That explains why i see them everywhere, lol
Damn I forgot how good this show was… rewatching it after losing a close loved one really hurts.
what a great video!! Loved the WandaVision callback!!
So excited about this channel! Already loving the Deep Dive!
it's just worth watching it for that brilliant graphic in the begining, im dead!
Voss has risen.
This video is getting me through my Monday at work. Thank you man. Thank you.
2nd video I’ve seen on your channel and I’m already all about it. I love your deep dives. Good shit!
I think my issue with the writing in Multiverse of Madness isn't the idea of Wanda relapsing or being influenced by the darkhold, it's that it was never explained well enough that that was what was going on. You can make it make sense in retrospect, analysing and reflecting on what happened, but the narrative itself is so focused on setting up the twist reveal and making a scary horror villain, that it fails to make clear exactly why the friendly, familiar, and apparently healing Wanda is suddenly behaving like a bigger monster than she's ever been before.
I wonder what it was like for Agatha to be a powerful elder witch watching Wanda subconsciously take over an entire town and warp it into a sitcom.
I completely understand why she would attempt to take Wanda's power.
I really hope they don't cancel Agatha's show.
i love that she turned SWORD into a literal circus aswell
The entire series was so well done- i just love how they set everything up to unravel- i remember all the youtube videos speculating what the hex was going on each week ! so good- i cant wait for Agathas show
This is AWESOME, I knew there was more to get out of this show. THANK YOU EV - really excited about this new project.
Love this! Thank you!
Great video amazing content I’m lovin this new channel and the deeper dives 🙏 gold Voss
Great deep dive Eric. I’m digging this channel so far
Excellent video. You covered a lot of things I never noticed. Well done :)
This is absolutely phenomenal! I am grateful to be able to listen to this detailed analysis!!!!! Like, really, dang, this is mind blowing stuff you are putting together about this series here! Thank you!!!
Great job Eric, super happy with these deep dive videos
Wow Erik V, this was incredible. This almost brought me to tears. Amazing deep dive
LOVE NR VIDEOS!! You guys are the best!
As a super plant nerd (which means I love to educate people on plants), that's plant in the back is a Croton but the sentiment Eric points out still stands... Toxic to dogs (and all other pets). Cheers! Keep up the awesome breakdowns!
Erik I watched this whole thing! Thank you. You are amazing!
This video was so impactful for me, as a huge fan of Marvel and WandaVision, but as someone going through the grieving process. Thank you and can't wait for your next post! ❤
I love this. I typically just listen to your videos, but this time I stopped what I was doing to watch and listen the entire video. I am so excited to watch the other deep dives you do!!! Thank you for all this brain food you're giving us!!
Great work Erik! Your hard work is much much appreciated. I look forward to each and every breakdown you do. WandaVision is so well done... Love it!
