The hit Disney+ television series WandaVision hit me in a way I couldn’t describe properly, but to put it in the simplest terms possible, I’ve compiled a brief list of reasons:
- I connected with the character Wanda in a few personal ways.
- The love between Wanda and Vision felt similar to the love I share with my partner. The parallels only grew my fondness for the show.
- The show even gave reference to a private joke I share with my love.
- The similarities between Vision’s character and aspects of my partner’s life were incredible.
- Memorable quotes that resonated with me, giving me time to think about the meaning of so many things.
The depth of their fictional love experience drove me to write a much more in-depth explanation. Take a look, you might find something relatable to write your own piece about (or have a fun conversation with your loved one.)
