Doctor Strange

This is a big one for me that I've just been juicing and wanting for so freaking long.

But what are your thoughts on, again, Midnight Suns, but Doctor Strange being one of the leaders in this Midnight Suns movie?

Yeah.

I mean, I...

Doctor Strange as a leader...

It's an interesting question, right? We haven't really seen him be a leader.

He's always just kind of like...

And Multiverse of Madness was a really big movie at the box offices, and we haven't got a direct follow-up to that.

it.

And then they have to see Scarlet Witch or Doctor Strange Madness.

Oh, that one's good.

That's

all caught

up.

Speaking of Doctor Strange, with the whole Spider-Man thing, and he made everybody forget about Spider-Man, he made everybody in the world forget about Spider-Man, even though...

Everyone in his life still got affected by his not knowing him.

First, you have the sci-fi rescue mission.

That's Tony and Spider-Man infiltrating Ebony Maw's ship to save Doctor Strange and protect the Time Stone.

Okay, yeah.

Meanwhile, you have Thor's storyline, which is essentially a mythic tragedy.

The snap.

Watching half the universe turn to ash.

Seeing Black Panther, Spider-Man, Doctor Strange just blow away.

Well, turn to dust, rather.

Also, Happy Hogan is here.

As Peter sees his friend's lives collapsing from proximity to Spider-Man, he attempts a Hail Mary, asking Doctor Strange to magically restore his secret identity.

But Peter's wishy-washiness over how this spell should work makes it go wrong.

Instead of erasing the public's knowledge of Spider-Man's government name, it creeps into the spider-specific multiverse.

It's so teenager, and it's everything you want from this movie.

He did not see a Halloween ornament suggesting take responsibility and have grown-up conversation with people.

He saw one that looked like Doctor Strange.

Exactly.

All the technology he was giving him, uh, Dr.

Strange next movie, strange meets Thor, uh, Remember at the end of that movie, right? Which led right into Thor Ragnarok, because that was the opening scene of Thor Ragnarok, was Thor going to see Doctor Strange.

So that led right into that movie.

And Karl Mordo strips Jonathan Pangborn of his magic.

pay off.

Well, at least not in...

We expected that the next Doctor Strange movie was going to be Baron Mordo... villain as the villain and Dr.

Strange as the protagonist and Mordo was going to be going around trying to steal the magic from all the sorcerers in the world because there's too many you know

I haven't played Thor.

Technically, Doctor Strange, but I don't own him.

War Machine.

Spectrum? Didn't play, I haven't played Spectrum.

This is a little...

It's definitely strange, but I get it, though.

Doctor Strange.

Well, I think a big problem are a lot of the aspect cards.

I like, I like the plan.

So, um, The first on your list is Doctor Strange with the Soul Gem, which is Sixth Threat Strange.

I had a lot of success running Five Threat Strange with his leadership.

Tell me the plan around Sixth

Uh, sorry.

That's most game rounds, not just like, rounds of the events yeah um so yeah i think you know across the game netting an extra five six power uh just through the gems ability um very very useful yeah that is big

that is big um jeff did you run doctor strange under c3 because looking at the yeah Yeah, just that ability to, like, okay, cool, I can turn on the pierce, or, okay, I've already got the pierce, let's turn on the hit, just an extra damage, would make it a lot more reliable.

And the fact that, oh, cool, I'm turning it into the pierce, it's effectively spending one power for two, because you're getting a damage through now because of the pierce, and the shield gaining that extra power there.

So, Loki...

Doctor Strange doing his shit Ant-Man are we saying Ant-Man and Kang or are they just going to try to because you remember like in a post credit for Ant-Man they were all like around his birthday at a restaurant and it seemed like shit was off but they might not pour into that because that of course leads into the Kang stuff

so they might not even touch that I don't think he would have for sure Loki though

yeah but so because the Tesseract

That is a problem.

I... stole the Tesseract, went back in the past, got caught, killed the guy that controlled time, that is a problem.

Doctor Strange, you created a spell that opened rifts throughout the universe.

That is a problem.

Again, the Kraken, Godzilla, nuke metaphor, nuclear engineer.

You had Digger, which seems to be a take on Doctor Strange's love about the nuke and has nuclear waste in the trailer.

So you had this repeated theme of nukes, which was the subtext of The Odyssey by Christopher Nolan, where he made a parallel, obvious, so it's something of a sequel, where Odysseus is Oppenheimer, the Trojan horse is the nuke.

There's a similar theme that was intentionally put into it.
