    One little caveat, Strange didn't even know what an Incursion was until after that meeting with Wanda. The incident with Spider-Man he didn't know was an Incursion. Nor did he think it would turn into that because he wasn't aware of the multiverse being let loose thanks to Sylvie.

      That's the point, he's so arrogant in his abilities that he doesn’t care about the unknown consequences even tho the Ancient One and other sorcerers have warned him to not walk into situations he's unaware of. Which is why even if he knew the consequences beforehand he'd still think that he's capable enough to fix it without taking any damage to his surroundings and himself.

    I’ve thought Dr Strange has been set up for an evil arc since he grew the third eye. He really isn’t much different than his other variants, but they’ve tried to trick us into thinking he’s “the good one”.
    I think he’s going to attempt something to stop Kang’s multiversal war. But it will end up doing more harm than good, and lead him to oppose the rest of the new avenger team.
    He’s a tragic character doomed to let his ego and motivations blind him to the truth.

      Notice how plastic Strange looks at the beginning with Spiderman. Now think, an outer planer gate was open filling the place with ice. In D&D bad things can come through a gate like Demons. Feels more like Fantasy Island | Roarke vs The Devil. He is tempting Peter and he helps in Wanda's downfall. I think this time it is Mephisto. Think about it, if Dr. Doom shows up the real bad guy is Mephisto. He is an arch demon that needs a constant supply of willing fresh soles. He would not have been a fan of Thanos. They love this misdirection shit. I bet if Mephisto shows up every where he is will be covered in ice. PS: This is how it played out in the KISS comic. 😆

      They already did this concept in the 'What If', where Strange Supreme was the villain. 'What if' is supposed to be an alternative timeline (alternative to the main MCU timeline). So to be honest, Strange changing into an evil self (again) will be quite an unoriginal idea. Also, If Strange will be bad in the main MCU timeline, then the 'What If'' villain Strange is no longer an ''alternative'' idea.

      That's not true at all, they clearly been setting it up since 2016. You MCU tourists just aren't used to how comic books work.
      I called it when y'all were pretending the first decade of MCU was the best thing ever when all the films were cookie cut action comedies, the few food movies at least. We comic book fans knew your fragile little minds wouldn't be able to handle real comic book stories.
      Post Endgame is way more connected thru story than first decade was. What's missing and what they have started to correct with The Marvels is the characters crossing over so they can establish relationships and at least knowledge of each other.
      Like with comic books you won't actually see how it all ties together until The Avengers movies(the live action version of Marvel comics big Events) it's how comics work to make us buy titles we otherwise have 0 interest in. So why wouldn't it be the same way for the live action version.
      You don't need to watch every movie, TV show or Special Presentation but just like with Star Wars it's much richer and deeper if you do.

    Honestly, this show's Dr. Strange never really learns his lesson that causes a lot of the mystic problems we see currently BUT we also see how the writers of these films are not on the same page. Wanda at the end of WandaVision and Wanda from Dr. Strange 2 are so jarringly different that there's no way the creative team on both productions were on the same page. Hopefully MCU reboots after Secret Wars and has a more cohesive vision. It feels like after Far From Home, Fiege didn't want to let go of MCU's popularity and just threw stuff at the wall until they knew where to go with the multiverse saga.

      The change in her personality was probably corruption from using the Darkhold. Ideally, she was not meant to be the original villain of Multiverse of Madness (that was meant to be Nightmare), and that's why the shift in tone was so jarring. She'll probably be brought back, but it's going to be hard to redeem her seeing as she's killed so many people.

    On Strange telling Wanda about what happened in NWH, keep in mind it's still super unclear what he does and doesn't remember about that whole situation.

      Strange Supreme is the same Doctor Strange as ''our'' Strange from Earth -199999, it's just different, alternative version, but the same universe. Every other Strange from the MoM is from different universe.

In terms of his personality, he became more humble and accepted his faults for him to just act the same going forward. So hea actually not had any real growth yet, even by his 2nd movie he still.seems arrogant. If he becomes a villain, great, but weve seen that already in what if and his variant in Dr Strange 2. I feel the writers have written themselves into a corner and Dr Strange 3, I don't have much hope for! They also dropped the Mordo storyline.

    Interesting. Personally, a very concerning flaw I see with Strange (beyond the biggest that different writers keep having Strange regress to a narcassistic, reckless, intentionally oblivious despot who retains the power he gained in his movie but not the character growth) is his over reliance on his magic. Strange uses magic too much. Presumedly all magic has some sort of cost and that is a fundamental aspect known to all students. However, Strange seems to use it for every tiny little thing. Why walk across the street when you can teleport? Why build a sandwich when one can just appear? Why have a respectful relationship built on mutual trust and experiences when you can have someone submit to your magic instantly? This is like using a chainsaw to peel a banana. The idea of magic as a metaphor for addiction or corruption has been used before, has the idea of magic as a metaphor for money? Tony Stark was a literal billionaire whose biggest flaws included being overindulged and he only reached his greatest heroic nature when he took on a more simple life. Strange is a mystical billionaire.

      It's less that the cost of magic is great and more that it can add up before you notice. The rule is in place to stop the less skilled from making mistakes. It's still a risk, but he's just better.

Particularly the arcs The Last Days of Magic, Blood in the Aether, and State of Misery. I loved that in this iteration of the character, his overexposure to magic and interdimensional shenanigans has rendered him unable to derive nourishment from regular human food anymore lmao.

    • @markeastlack4180
      @markeastlack4180 11 месяцев назад

      It's not regression, it's standard Dr Strange, he really never learns his lesson. Much like my main man Batman he continually tries to solve Crisis level Events on his own and always makes it worse. This Dr Strange will obviously learn his lesson and let go of his ego by the end.
      That's the one thing about the movies that gives them an advantage, the comics must come out every month forever so almost no ending are definitive which means the characters don't really grow much, even when they like Spiderman growing up and having his own company the fans(except for me) got so angry that Marvel actually had to take Peters company away, though it was inevitable (decent people as fortune 500 CEOs isn't sustainable), and send him back to college. Spider-Man been in highschool and college for 60 years.
      The movies actually get to give the characters endings, so Strange will grow and overcome his arrogance once he is finally made to realize how wrong he is. Unfortunately for our heroes it takes a complete multiverse collapse

And since we're casting blame on characters why don't we blame Tony and Pym for the creation of time travel and the rebirth of the multiverse. Strange has his part here too but ultimately he changed probability to make this outcome happen. Strange Tony and Pym together created a timeloop paradox. the infinity war is truly infinite. Thanos is tampering with probable outcomes as a side effect of the timeheist. Thanos knows his destiny and always sees it to fruition by knowing future events. This is also why he atomized the stones to force the timeheist to happen.

    Is Victor Timely the same person, years younger as either the Conqueror or HWR, or the only one HWR wanted (or Ms Minutes from what I'm thinking) out of the Council of Kangs to take his place?

    What about Wongs part in this? Wong is the current Sorcerer Supreme. So yes, Strange should have reached out and connected with Wanda after everything but it seems Steven didn't really think of anyone outside of his selfish egotistical self until he met America. He probably didn't see his part in Vision death, also...."It was the only way", he saw all the possibilities that the one that happened was meant to happen, his justification that he did everything right.
    Where as Wong (who I am not blaming for things) was Sorcerer Supreme for 5 years before they all came back. We never see him in Endgame til the final fight. In Thor Ragnarok Steven mentions he felt the brothers on Earth. Maybe Wong is in over his head. At this point in the MCU things are Neverending magic wise.
    Steven Strange is very wrong in many ways but I think pretty much every man hero has done something that put them on the path of destruction they are currently on.

      I think Kang wanted her to kill him

      He Who Remains set her up to do that. A lot.
