Still think the first time he shows up in a PG-13 crossover he keeps censoring himself, someone else asks him why and he says they only get a limited number of f bombs to keep their rating and he’s saving it for a big moment.
Then when the moment arrives, some other character, like Spider-Man, says it instead and he gets mad.
Hugh Jackman walks out of the same dimensional portal that Deadpool did or whatever, looks directly into the camera, says "This is the last time I'm doing this, I don't even give a fuck," lights a cigar, then turns and blows the smoke directly in Deadpool's face with a huge shit-eating grin.
I honestly think it would be rad if Wanda is the reason for mutants being in the MCU and doing a reverse of no more mutants. Like, what a fun thing to do that slides them in perfectly.

If you gave Hugh Jackman bright yellow and blue (or yellow and brown) super hero tights, he would 100% do it again.

I've been wanting them to do this for a long while (my original pick I think was for her to get her hands on an Infinity stone and wishing for her brother back), and WandaVision seems like it would be a real good opportunity
The show is already likely going to have her use her powers to reality warp her children into existence, why not 198 more mutants to go along with it?

Yes and no.
Like, I think you could definitely lose something if it's just these mutants. It would have to be clearly defined as like, now humans are mutating and you gotta be worried about your eleven year old developing super powers from here on out.
But I also think if you do it as a percentage of the population suddenly and inexplicably developing powers that they're not in full control of, you could definitely harness some of the world that hates and fears them.

I don’t think you have to, the power is based around reality, so reality just shifts so they’ve always been there, along with their backstories.
Oh see I specifically wouldn't want this
Having a bunch of competent superheroes (and villains and other) with fully realized backstories and lives and all that just appear feels like the bad way to do it to me
Since they're already dipping their toes into multiverse a with Doctor Strange and probably Spider-Man 3, what if they are gearing up to introduce mutants with a Secret Wars event dealing with the colliding multiverse? They could have Hugh Jackman cameo as Old Man Logan from one universe and bring Laura from Logan, then introduce a younger X-team from another universe. I think it could be fun also to have Laura from a universe where the X-Men were already legendary heroes helping lead the team.
Sorry if that's too rambling, I was just thinking about how it could work. It would also have the added bonus of giving us a Thor-corps movie.

Like, I say no Magneto or Xavier
We've had enough Magneto and Xavier in the movies we've already seen
a little more dry than I was expecting at first, but the hints at things amiss worked well, especially near the end of the dinner. I imagine the intrigue will really start to ramp up in subsequent episodes.
I couldn't watch Ep2 because Disney+ is garbage for me when new shows are added. Picture keeps freezing constantly while the audio keeps going.
Olsen and Bettany are great, it's nice to see them have more to do with their characters.

WandaVision
I wonder if Wanda’s accent comes back as another sign of the illusion or whatever weakening. She hadn’t dropped it for Endgame, had she?

It won't let you watch the whole show probably though, depending on how slow they roll the episodes out
two moments that implicate that Wanda is subconsciously in charge I think: when vision's boss chokes everyone starts to freeze/loop until Wanda tells Vision to help. Wh n the beekeeper (AIM? Distorted antman trying to get into her vision? Did in hazmat suit?) turns up, Wanda says no and everything rewinds.

I've long argued for a Magneto who is still a survivor but not necessarily a Holocaust survivor
However, a lot of people have pointed out that this might also look really bad, as Magneto is one of the most prominent Jewish comic book characters
I think you could still do it - I would specifically make sure that a modernized Magneto is introduced alongside a Kate Pryde who is openly Jewish and whose family history is likely linked back to the Holocaust as well
But it is a dicey choice regardless

Honestly I had the same thought, but the use of "detainee" was the pertinent clue
The whole 50's sitcom thing was played a lot more straight than I had expected. Obviously things aren't alright, but I was definitely expecting it to go full color before the end of episode 2.
Since they're already dipping their toes into multiverse a with Doctor Strange and probably Spider-Man 3, what if they are gearing up to introduce mutants with a Secret Wars event dealing with the colliding multiverse? They could have Hugh Jackman cameo as Old Man Logan from one universe and bring Laura from Logan, then introduce a younger X-team from another universe.

Sorry if that's too rambling, I was just thinking about how it could work. It would also have the added bonus of giving us a Thor-corps movie.
They ARE doing a lot of multiverse stuff but I strongly think Marvel are going with a mostly traditional introduction to mutants.
Not for nothing was there a whole scene in Endgame dedicated to show a huge wave of Radiation sweeping across the globe as a result of the Snap. That scene doesn’t really add anything else to the film and isn’t brought up again. (It’s used as foreshadowing that Thanos uses the stones again, but they’ve already tracked him down at this point.)
Then you’ve got a 5 year gap and two more snaps in upstate New York. I can easily see this being used as a thing that alters some people’s DNA or some such. Now I think about it, tying it to the Snap could be a reason for Fear and Distrust of mutants.

It made sense when the character was introduced, a mere 20 years after WW2, but as we move further and further away from that fixed date, it gets harder and harder to justify - even when we're dealing with comic book tricks and/or sliding timelines - how he's still around.
