Doctor Strange: the movie

[jye4ever]

Even Dr. Effing Strange effortlessly grabbed a 93% RT score? Unbelievable run Marvel is having .

You're right about that, international geeks made a good showing:

Compared to previous openings in the Marvel Cinematic Universe:

+49% ahead of Ant-Man
+37% ahead of Guardians of the Galaxy
+23% ahead of Captain America: Winter Soldier
+1% ahead of Thor: The Dark World




+100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000% ahead of BvS

I guess it's too late to start a Dr. Effing Strange write-in campaign for President.

For those who like the songs in the movie. (I just can't remember the classic orchestra song and the song mentioned during the '2nd operation'.)

Will be seein' this tommorrow. No IMAX or 3D but at least undubbed. Hate the dubs...

 

[jye4ever]

Supposed to be one of the best uses of the Imax 3D format in the MCU. I'll know soon enough.

 

[Shawpaw]

Omg report back on the 3D experience! Can't wait to see this

So for the 4D shows do they hand out LCD for the full effect?

The 3d was amazing. The NYC chase had me sitting up in excitement. I haven't felt that buzz since Anakin vs Obi-Wan's fight in 2005.

Why does everything happen in New York???

 

[Johnny Utah]

Here it's because the Sanctum Sanctorum is in NYC, then the action switches to Hong Kong. I must watch it again. It's a bloody great film. There were several moments where I literally said 'JESUS CHRIST' with the visuals. It's out Friday everywhere else. HT would be wise to show or at least tease a figure of Mordo or Kaecilius if they're making one.

I always wanted a Spidey in Kansas setting.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

Why does everything happen in New York???

Because 99% of Marvel is based there

Spoiler question:

Spoiler

What song does Christine Palmer test Stephen Strange with while she's operating him?

Saw this twice now... I think this is the best origin movie by Marvel so far, next to Iron Man.

Loved Tilda Swinton here. Her performance was one of the highlights for me. The visuals were really great as well. Really trippy.

Some other thoughts:

Spoiler

• It follows the general Marvel formula, but it works really well.
• I think the humor here was better than what it was for Ant Man
• Loved the end-credits scenes.
• Really like how Strange resolved the final conflict.
• The movie did portray the passage of time as well as I'd like. The director said it happened about a year ago with Strange's training taking a year to complete. It falls back in sync with the rest of the MCU at the end of the film. Which means the Air Force Colonel who got injured in an experimental suit was not Rhodey (also confirmed by the director).

I just pictured Strange meeting Stark in Infinity War. Whoa.
