Marvel Cinematic Universe
LeeC:
IT LOOKS SO GOOD! Like the Matrix with magic!
ChaoSera:
I love this so much! FINALLY a trailer that doesn't already take away so much of the story.
Neko_Ali:
It looks good, it should be interesting... But all the way through the trailer I was thinking "They're doing his origin story? Again? I thought they said they were done with doing origin stories for their movies." There's not necessarily anything wrong with origins... but for Doctor Strange that would tend to take him far out of the MCU world building as his stuff tends to be way outside the normal marvel universe goings on. And as someone who's been a long fan of comics in general... I'm getting tired of movie makers taking the easy route out and re-doing the same story that's already been done to death. Strange may not have appeared in media as much as say, Spiderman or the Fantastic Four... But when you get down to it, he really doesn't have a complex origin story for such a weird and out there character. Arrogant surgeon gets in a car wreck, has his hands ruined. He searches the world increasingly desperate for someone who can fix him, and winds up eventually at a Tibetan monastery. Instead of healing him though, they train him in magic and make him the new Sorcerer Supreme, guarding the dimension from magical threats... 10-15 minute flashbacks for an explanation, tops.
LeeC:
Anyone else see the animated version of the origin story that came out like 10 years ago?
Neko_Ali:
I own the DVD, yeah.
