State of the MCU- My theories

WandaVision Episode 9 didn't create a Thor: Ragnarok plot hole. 
Why didn't Doctor Strange investigate Westview if he said he had a list of people who pose a threat to Earth?
1. Wanda didn't have a threatening motive when she created the sitcom illusion- she created it out of grief.
2. She was very quick to end the illusion when she recognized how she was affecting the other residents.
3. As Agatha Harkness claimed (and I'm paraphrasing), Wanda has the skillset but not the knowledge. 

WandaVision will, however, tie into Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, although I'm on the fence as to whether or not Wanda will be the villain in the story.
She was reading the Darkhold, or the Book of the Damned, in the post-credits scene. This could mean one of two things:
1. She's reading it to understand it (more on the hero side)
2. She's reading it to study it (more on the villain side) 

My theory on Spider-Man: No Way Home is that Wanda's twins are in another dimension or universe and that Spider-Man will try to bring them back.

The WandaVision finale mid-credits scene sets up Captain Marvel 2 as a Skrull tells Monica Rambeau that "a friend of her mother's" wants to see her in space (well, she just pointed upwards but I got the gist). My guess is that the friend is Nick Fury.

Thoughts on the Mysterious Benedict Society- Episodes 1 and 2

Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi deserve a ton of credit for writing Sticky's first scene in the pilot episode. In this brief clip, he gets a prize-money check but his parents take it away immediately. This, of course, is a reference to his backstory from the first book where his parents- after his increasing quiz show success- become more focused on the prizes he brings home than on his well-being. Episode 2 features a brief but very well-written moment courtesy of the same duo that beautifully captures Martina Crowe's personality, where she glares around the classroom and causes her fellow students to lower their raised hands. This is very much in keeping with Martina's "don't cross me" book personality.

Why the MCU shouldn't recast T'Challa

T'Challa should remain Chadwick Boseman's role, and- at least in my opinion- casting another actor sort of dampens his legacy in that regard. I don't want this to be the same thing as Bruce Banner (remember Edward Norton in Incredible Hulk ?) or James Rhodes (remember Terrence Howard in Iron Man ?). One, and only one, person should portray T'Challa- the late Chadwick Boseman. Not having a T'Challa in the Black Panther sequel will allow the cast to grieve and mourn and honor- whichever they feel is appropriate- the life and legacy of both T'Challa (when cameras are rolling) and Chadwick (when cameras aren't rolling). Adding another actor as T'Challa- I think- would provide a "back to business as usual" vibe whereas keeping T'Challa's spot in Wakanda empty would allow the grieving process to continue on the actors' terms before, during and after filming, which in this regard I think is important.
