Taking down Endus from his high-shitting (sic) throne, when he plays "know-it-all" is never boring.
Endus is best when sharing his insight or ideas about narratives or stories or plots.
But he's absolutely despicable to me (and, i assume, to many more) when he thinks he can use sophism when arguing (in the sense of discussion, not quarrel) about something. Some people can see through that.

You're missing the point. He is the FOX X-Men Universe version of Quicksilver.
Fox refers to the movie studios that cast him, doesn't mean someone misspelled "faux"=fake Pietro

Sure, but she wasn't really popular or famous even after those.
RDJ has had a career reboot and he was really really successful and popular in both careers

Again, you being too dense to understand what the conversation demonstrates that you're the problem, not the conversation itself.
This isn't a semantic over words. It's what those words fucking mean to the scene in question. Again: Vision wasn't being kept alive by the Hex. He wasn't an illusion. He didn't drop into a pile of parts when he left the Hex. Nope, the Hex was trying to pull him back in, and he was fighting against it; and THAT is what was ripping him apart.
I'm not sure what's so hard to grasp about that, or how you think both things mean exactly the same thing. But again, that demonstrates your lack of brain power, not the conversation itself.

Ok, so the latest Mr Sunday Movies "shoot the shit about this half hour show for a half hour on youtube" video came out not long ago, and it included something I found pretty funny, and I had to share (no, not the part about the rats):
Check it out. Don't worry, it's just a couple minutes.
As a slightly sadistic piece of shit who enjoyed the reaction to the Mandarin bait-and-switch in IM3, I think this too would be pretty great after people's imagination had been running wild for so long.

I thought it was a good gag initially... but also a little disappointed that we weren't going to get the "real" Mandarin. Which made me happy when they released the "All hail the King" one-shot. And even more happy when they revealed the full title of the Shang Chi film.

Ah, nevermind, I'll just stop reading anything you type there. (I'm sure it wasn't all that important anyway.)

Then you either didn't see the scene, are blind, or are an idiot. Because it's plainly obvious it was pulling him, no matter what you think. You might as well be a Flat Earther or Anti-Vaxxer at this point screaming about how you didn't see any evidence about a global Earth or the fact that vaccinations work and aren't an evil plot to put microchips in you or whatever other stupid shit similar people think.

Annnnnd that explains why killing a creature is evil but killing a creature isn't evil, how exactly?
Stop the presses, a flying creature that makes noise made noise and flew around!- When she turns the insect into a bird, it flutters around the room and makes bird sounds, just like a bird. We’ve seen nothing to suggest that the transformed bug would continue to act like a bug. It acted like a bird.

You can see pieces of him being pulled back into the hex. It seems pretty hard to miss since you see the pieces fly back including yellow "energy" streams coming off of Vision that flow in the direction of the Hex. What we don't know is why it happened. It is possible he can leave the Hex just fine and that it was Agatha that started to rip him apart. After all he did just spill his plan to her not long before he did it.
Given what we know about her spying abilities it is possible she saw it as a way to get rid of Vision so she could plant a "body double" to reveal the secrets she wanted from Wanda.

You know a community is bad when moderators lock a thread because "...this isnt the place to talk about it either seeing as it will get trolled..."
Your second paragraph proves we already knew that through other narrative devices already. Hell, I knew that the previous episode when they ended on whether she could actually control Vision or not. She couldn't- all she could do was abruptly end the show. That's more than enough to show he was fully realized Vision, and not some illusion.
Plus, it's not his survival outside the Hex which shows it's real - it's his insistence on going out to beg for help. All in all, the free moments he would have survived outside the Hex is irrelevant except to show he's the good, pure-hearted Vision - which we already knew from his already growing conflict with Wanda.
The pieces that fly off him are immediately sucked back into the barrier like a magnet so I always took it as him fighting that kind of suction. Whether he was dead or a husk or just exhausted or needed an oil canon once penetrating the real world I have no theory. However once he dropped a few feet away the pull seemed to end. Knowing now that she didn’t revive his actual body but remade him makes it interesting that he remained material outside the hex.
“The biggest communication problem is we do not listen to understand. We listen to reply,” Stephen Covey.
Those are different infinity stones I do believe. Vision was created with the mind stone and the one that Wanda first connected with was the power stone(I think). I mean story telling wise I'm not sure it makes a difference but I'm not entirely sure that Vision truly needed the soul stone in order to inhabit a body.
I was going to add a ss but apparently D+ blocks using them on the iPad app.
Either way it looks like you’re right, he never stops being de-digitized until the barrier passes back over him. In my memory the suction ended but on further review the trail is still there, just thinner, and it slows down once he slumps, probably more because the focus of the scene changes than anything.like how a 10 second bomb timer will only go down 2 seconds despite spending 5 seconds of showing other shit happening.
