What If...? Guardians of the Multiverse Review S1E9: The Door was More of a Metaphor

Every episode of What If is finally out and we're here to talk about the Guardians of the Multiverse, what worked for the series, and what didn't!
Every episode of What If is finally out and we're here to talk about the Guardians of the Multiverse, what worked for the series, and what didn't! 

If you're looking to have what we've seen in episode nine of What If...? discussed, you're in the right place! Each week we'll be breaking down the latest stories in the MCU beat by beat by discussing what works, what doesn't, and what it all means.

The episode in review is called, What If...The Watcher Broke His Oath? It was written by A.C. Bradley and directed by Bryan Andrews.

We also continue the trend this week with breaking the episode down into three acts rather than most important topics. We follow along in pretty sequential chunks of the recent episode. 

This episode remains spoiler free until around the 10 minutes and 10 seconds mark! It's also important to note that given the recency and limited access of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, it is exempt from the spoiler zone this week as well! This will continue until a week after Shang-Chi hits Disney Plus! 

In this episode we reference:

Inside Marvel’s ‘What If…?’ Finale, Season 2 Plans and the T’Challa Spinoff That Never Was by Adam B. Vary

MCU Phase 4 Now Has To Fix Captain Marvel (After What If's Insults) by John Orquiola 

What If...? proves that Marvel Studios will never be able to tell a stand-alone story by Sam Barsanti
