Earlier in the semester, the Penmen Press interviewed SNHU students and alumni about their general reactions to “WandaVision,” a Marvel television series on Disney+, and their theories for how the show would end. With the completion of the series, the Penmen Press surveyed and interviewed several SNHU students again to determine if their theories came true and how satisfied they were with the series finale. Expectations for “WandaVision” were high. It’s not hard to see why, as Marvel Studios is world-famous for their characters, stories and action sequences. Fans look forward to every glimpse into the cinematic universe they can get and many expect every related project to come with that thrill of watching a Marvel movie. Excitement grew when one of the main actors in “WandaVision” teased a big moment in the show. In several interviews, Paul Bettany, who plays Vision, told viewers to watch out for a huge cameo from someone he’s always wanted to work with. Elizabeth Olsen even added that this special appearance was like a certain recent cameo in “The Mandalorian.” Of course, this led to speculation, thousands of theory videos and excitement for the big reveal. SNHU students were among those excited fans, and they have a lot to say about the show and how it ended. Of the students questioned, 55% stated they were completely satisfied with WandaVision. The rest stated they were mostly satisfied with the series. Some SNHU students commented how the series did a good job of depicting Wanda’s journey through the stages of grief. However, less satisfied viewers cited many reasons why they did not enjoy the series as much. Hannah
