[@daxriley8195]

Wow, Chad's gone full "the man your man could smell like" Old Spice patter, and I love it!

[@YoureMrLebowski]

tis a wonderful performamce Mr Chad

[@mikeaninger7388]

“You cannot win..” “No, but I can loose. Again, again, and again… and that makes you my prisoner.” My favorite line.

[@JSSTyger]

I think my favorite part is when Strange reveals to Mordo that the Ancient One draws power from the dark dimension. Powerful acting from all three actors

[@Souledex]

It's so ridiculously evocative of everything his character represents in the comics. Power doesn't come without a price, and he will find a way to pay it (or Double Irish it across dimensions so he can pay the next ones too). It's also so interesting because it's still an extreme expression of arrogance. To believe you can chain a god with your will and outlast him because you spent a couple years in physio, to have a natural understanding of time and people's experience of the world and natural laws to know that experience is something that would be an effective weapon against him, and then to distract his mind and wear him down by practicing his mystic arts to the extent he's one of the best when he comes out the other side. Like Captain America he was born for this - as a gifted soul who's arrogance, intellect, and talent have allowed him to solve every problem in front of him, he must learn to use those talents to confront forces far beyond human reckoning. Cap has the experience to give morality to his strength, Strange has the arrogance and intellect to give ambition to his talent, it must be suborned by a will to serve others and wisdom of endless painful experience. The ability to break the rules in only just the right ways is a perfect core personality trait for the best wizard too.

[@houdin654jeff]

One of my favorite tiny details of this movie is you can see the date of Stephen’s accident on his watch. It’s February 2nd, Groundhog Day, a reference to a time loop, which is how he eventually saves the world from Dormammu.

[@HunterHarris]

Never noticed that before, such a cool detail!

[@dmanimousprime3858]

Didn't realize that either!

[@Rytonic69]

That's so cool

[@haha-lj5sq]

That connects so well to the What If

[@marcthemarco5317]

and also the moment that he keeps coming back in the What if series

[@shawnkroll3950]

“You cannot win..” “No, but I can lose. Again, again, and again… and that makes you my prisoner.” Yes that line is huge! Steven had never lost and now he was willing to lose his life over and over forever just to save billions of people....his sacrifice is one of the highlights of his character and I think people really don't touch on a lot as shows how far he grew since being so self serving to becoming selfless and being a true doctor and hero. I loved Benedict in this role..he took it seriously and his blew this out of the park. Thank you Benedict.

[@glennwelsh9784]

This is honestly one of my favorite endings of an MCU movie. The hero doesn't beat the villain in a fist fight or in some overwhelming display of strength. Dr. Strange wins with intelligence and the selfless act of trapping himself in an endless loop of death if it means preventing Dormammu from taking over the universe.

[@mayarimarjorie5624]

right! a rare ending and one that is unique to most the MCU.

[@JSSTyger]

"Its like Inception." Ironically, Christopher Nolan was inspired by the Doctor Strange comic when he did Inception.

[@riolkin]

I love that scene with Tilda Swinton as she died. Excellent dialogue. Ancient One: "You have such a capacity for goodness. You've always excelled, not because you crave success but rather your fear of failure." Strange: "It's what made me a great doctor." Ancient One: "It is precisely what has kept you from greatness. Arrogance and fear still keep you from learning the most simplest and significant lesson of all." Strange: "Which is?" Ancient One: "It's not about you."

[@Rhodair]

aye, much like Tony Stark had his big, eye-opening moment, Dr. Strange's one of my favs - and that delivery by the Ancient One was outstanding!

[@TheFirehawkTT]

@@Rhodair She delivered it very well. Part of me still thinks that the Ancient One role should have gone to an asian person. It just makes more sense, but that might have led to someone without the necessary acting skills.

[@apoorvsingh4459]

Chills! everytime this scene comes

[@redviper6805]

Benedict Cumberbatch was amazing in this. And the music at the end when he goes up those stairs to the end credits was beautiful; feels like it symbolized his journey to hero.

[@matthewbrooksher4659]

I agree, it’s such an underrated film.

[@sspdirect02]

39:08 What have we learned? You always save before every boss fight. Every gamer knows that.

[@ImprobableJoe]

My wife was an OR and ICU nurse, she says this movie is pretty accurate on how surgeons behave.

[@Diegesis]

Haha

[@danielruiz8259]

28:04 Her reaction in the broom closet was genuine, since the mop handle fell completely by accident, and scared Rachel McAdams almost out of her skin. Scott Derrickson, the director, decided to keep the reaction in the film, since she never broke character.

[@dontgiveinfo]

Inception, as stated per Christopher Nolan ( so many ppl said Dr. Strange stole from Inception, which was false) he read those Dr. Strange comics and took these concepts from a comic book

[@Rhodair]

lol it's like when people get it flipped who made the original song, or for example, I've heard people think Captain America's a more recent thing when he's from the 1940s

[@sherrysink3177]

Wong finally laughing at the end is such a delight. Such a simple quick moment, but one of my favorite parts of the film. It's so funny. :)

[@CgGoil]

I love that Benedict Cumberbatch also is voicing Durmammu! Fantastic actor with a phenomonal voice.

[@tumbleheart4664]

This reminds me of why I loved a certain episode of "What if" so much.

[@bobogus7559]

27:56 The broom falling over wasn't scripted, it was pure chance. They kept that take because of her genuine reaction.

[@lethaldose2000]

Maple, you have officially entered the mind of M.C. Esher and his Tesselation artwork. He's KNown for physics bending and breaking ideas such as The Penrose Step Monks and the endless waterfall. (ala INception) Along with interlocking, machine-like, and organic structures in repeated looping patterns. To Esher, 'Order is a repetition of symmetrical units and Chaos is a multiplicity without rhythm.'

[@9613enrico]

i got an hearth attack at 15:15 the audio XD

[@daynejoseph2366]

Hell yeah. Any day that’s a Maple Day is a good day.

[@thatpatrickguy3446]

One of my favorite Marvel characters when I was a kid in the 70s, because so much about him is so surreal, even though he lives in the real(ish) world of normal people and superheroes. Such a well done movie giving nods to the Ditko art as well as the sorcerer mythos. And such a great reaction from you, though I admit that I was hoping you'd cry partly just because you told us that you'd had your lashes done. 😲 I'm kind of a jackwagon at times. 😛

[@jobinmcgooch]

My boy, Dr. Stephen Strange! 🤘🏽This movie is dope.

[@JSSTyger]

28:12 The acting in this scene is master class from Tilda Swinton, Ejiofor, and Cumberbatch.

[@arjunachuthan4224]

23:43 always gives me chills!!

[@rkstevenson5448]

I cringed away from the accident *just like that* when I first watched it. It's such a visceral moment. They did a good job of making the audience actually feel it.

[@MasterZeus94]

Wohoo! Here we go! Doctor Strange is my favourite Marvel character, and one of my favourite MCU movies! :D

[@shadowfire_08]

“we never lose our demons, Mordo. we only learn to live above them.” one of the best quotes in MCU, and Tilda Swinton killed it as Ancient One (even though everyone rioted when she was first cast)

[@artfuldodger9430]

Maple's laugh is adorable.

[@eddhardy1054]

Great to see you enjoying Dr Strange's entry into the MCU. He's always been one of my favourite Marvel characters. This was a class reaction, well done Maple 👍👍👍😊

[@pdegan2814]

When the speculation began about which characters the MCU was going to explore beyond the core team of Avengers, the two I most wanted to see were Black Panther and Dr. Strange. Thankfully, they gave us both of them and in each case did a great job. This is one of the only movies where I thought 3D actually improved the experience. Seeing this on the big screen in 3D was like watching Inception designed by MC Escher as viewed through a kaleidoscope and I loved every second of it :)

[@JSSTyger]

I remember the phase 3 announcements in late 2014 (with the big reveal that CA3 was Civil War). I was hyped for DS and BP ever since then.

[@maryrosenbergr7570]

My favorite Marvel movie!! And favourite actor ngl 😌 Benedict embodied comic book Stephen perfectly

[@billparrish4385]

All these years and all her roles later, and I still cannot shake seeing Tilda Swinton as Jadis the White Witch, Snow Queen of Narnia. If only they'd had her offer Strange some Turkish delight with that first cup of tea, that would have been hilarious (and a nod to the later revelation about her breaking a few rules to draw energy from the dark dimension, given what this 'sweetie' represented -- temptation).

[@captaindelta43]

Benedict Cumberbatch's acting in Doc strange is what made me fall with the character. I absolutely adore his other projects also but he absolutely killed it in Marvel movies. Loved the reaction btw . Dr strange by far the best Avenger for me other than OG Iron man or capt America

[@tylerparker8207]

Omg when strange came back through the portal from the snowy mountain and you just smiled and said “Hey 😀” that was so cute 😂😊 love all your reactions! So much fun to see someone watch all the mcu movies in order for the first time 😄

[@abhithaker6618]

Fun fact :- The voice of Dormamu is done by Benedict himself

[@carlosrodriguezb]

He is great giving voices to really powerfull characters. Smaug from the Hobbit is done too by him.

[@ianburns1167]

And it's based on his face. Dormamu doesn't really HAVE a form, he's just mimicing strange.

[@JSSTyger]

Cumberbatch vs CumberBITCH

[@No_OneV]

"how does she know that" Girl she in possession of a time stone

[@joshlittrell8946]

I'd say it's a chance at a no-cry reaction here... That being said, MAPLE FOR PRESIDENT!

[@tonyyul703]

First time as any...

[@davewhitmore1958]

I love how you make the "Mr. Dr." joke before the movie does :)

[@davidpk_fam9313]

´´hello guys and welcome back to die jesus´´ is what I heard the first time lol

[@Poss1]

Whee! What a ride this one is! The next big world-opener for our journey. See ya'll tomorrow. :)

[@lethaldose2000]

Hey Maple, the ideas and concepts for the movie come from the comic book artwork and The influence of artist Steve Ditko. As well as VFX in "INception, which gave them the spark to say VFX has come far enough to have M.C. Esher's ideas capitalized on. Ditko’s spacey, brain-blasted approach to otherworldly art is part of the film’s visual DNA. So thank you Steve Ditko for taking our minds to infinity and beyond.

[@MamadNobari]

She's like "I can't believe this somehow ties in to the MCU. Just wait till you see Shang-Chi lmao.

[@ThePonderer]

Doing a video on this movie’s thematic depth- I think it’s really under appreciated as an interesting, nuanced comic book movie.

[@SethXB]

when you mentioned "Fantasia" that brought back so many good memories of the "Never Ending Story" series I loved as a kid

[@beanheaddd3764]

New drinking game, every time Maple says "Oh" or "Goodness", take a shot . 👍👍👍

[@MapleDivine]

Oh goodness - this is not safe at all 🤠

For those who watch Dr Strange 2 , at 10:37 , the meaning of what she said make sense now. Yes need to see all the marvel even the tv show because Dr Strange 2 have some link with some.

[@aiscroll3084]

My favourite MCU movie as per VFX and then Black Panther 😀

[@damon6126]

As others have said, Tilda Swinton was absolutely gold in her role as the Ancient One. It's a shame that some saw it as a slight that she was cast in the role and also a shame that she was made to feel as if she had to apologize. Great actors are just that. And she definitely is a great actor.

[@tonyyul703]

*"Dormammu!!! I come to bargain!"*

[@Shyknit]

22:48 I think both this and Inception were inspired by the artist MC Escher, he did optical illusions

[@donsample1002]

You want an MCU tie-in: from 16:33 on, Strange is rocking the Tony Stark beard.

[@dr.burtgummerfan439]

Rich, arrogant, self-centered genius hits rock bottom, endures trials and tribulations, humbles himself and becomes a hero. TOTALLY different from Tony Stark, right?

[@ianburns1167]

This movie is pretty and I like it. But, for all the Inception style effects, what ALWAYS gives me goosebumps is the apple.

[@lethaldose2000]

When the mop falls in the scene after Christine aka the Night Nurse saves Dr Strange and the mop falls. Her reaction is genuine becasue the mop fall wasn't supposed to happen. It was a serendipitous moment that the director left in the film.

[@marclewis5505]

I'm really loving Maple's reactions to Marvel movies.😎🥰

Strange made Dormammu rage quit! lol

Thor Ragnarok is my favorite MCU movie and an absolute blast. I can't wait to see you watch it.

[@JSSTyger]

I did a ranking of first 23 movies after doing a marathon. Ragnarok made #6, which isn't bad considering my top 10 are all excellent films.

[@rccraig7580]

Away from the MCU in real life Dr.Strange ( Benedict Cumberbatch ), Wong ( Benedict Wong ) and Mordo ( Chiwetel Ejiofor ) are supposdedly all close friends. If you have seen or plan on seeing " The Martian " strarring Matt Damon you may be surprised to see how many MCU stars appear in that movie.

[@YoureMrLebowski]

1:23 great commercial Chad 👍🏼🙂

Lol thanks Mr lebowski

[@YoureMrLebowski]

@@Diegesis the fact that i'm not skipping the commercial says alot. remember way way back when the star of the show also did the pitches for products (radio, early tv, Pat Boone pitching Chevrolet, Lucy&Desi drinking CocaCola). now i put you right up there with them.

[@alwayswrite2011]

5:36 - "Why is he driving like that?" So the movie can happen, silly. 😋 22:44 - Not necessarily "nods", but "inspired by... with one key difference. They went so over the top with bending and folding the scenery in this movie that the SFX team kinda lost track of what was what. But it made for entertaining, if dizzying, viewing. 28:04 - This moment makes me laugh. The mop falling over was a mistake, so Rachel McAdams's reaction is genuine. But she stayed in character, so it made the film. 29:26 - This is where the FX team started wandering aimlessly for a bit.

[@geekgirl616]

This is when the Marvel Universe goes cosmic starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Stephen Strange as a neurosurgeon who gets into a massive car accident thus making his hands useless. Traveling to Kamantaj he is met by the Sorceress Supreme played by Tilda Swinton who teaches him about the mystic arts

[@nigeldonaldson1647]

Curious & ironic, Strange has that same arrogance and vanity that stark has, but without the cocky charm.

[@o0pinkdino0o]

Best joke in this is so meta. Strange - "people used to find me funny..." Wong - "did they work for you ?" Then at the final act Strange makes a joke and Wong cracks up. Why ? Because now Wong works for Strange.

[@MGower4465]

Lots of parallels between Strange and Tony Stark. Both geniuses, nearly destroyed by their own arrogance. Learning humility, and finding an unexpected path to adapt to their new reality.

I always wanted to know if the large crescent scar on Tilda Swintons (Ancient One) head is real. She plays the part well even though it's not comic book acurate.

[@nathanliteroy9835]

No, upside down cities are not intentional nods to Inception because stuff like that was done in other media including comics long before the Inception. So Nolan wasn't that original, maybe only in mainstream movies. Most famous example are Escher paintings, they inspired many people, that includes cities upside down, later when computers became powerful, there appeared many fractal patterns including deconstructed buildings
