This movie is EXTREMELY overhated in my opinion. It’s not my favorite MCU movie by any means, wouldn’t even crack my top 5. But a lot of the criticisms I’ve seen people provide for this movie since it’s release (not all of, but a high %) seem to be very nit picky criticisms or just things they didn’t like because it’s not what they expected. Now sure you could make genuine criticisms such as pacing, writing choices for certain characters and stuff. But I honestly love the pacing and it feels chaotic, just like the story. And there’s a lot of comics juiciness in this film that not only was relevant here, but MAJORLY setting up the future of the MCU which I loved (from teases to future groups coming in the MCU, Chthon name drop, mention of incursions which is from Hickman’s Secret Wars and so on). I think there’s more complexity to Strange’s arc than some people realize, the consistent theme being about “holding the knife”. Feeling the need to be in control due to his past experiences, but learning to let go of the knife, and relinquish control sometimes. Realizing that he doesn’t always have to hold the knife, due to his travels through the multiverse and learning from his variants experiences. They serve as a self reflection for Strange as a character to grow beyond them at the end. Of course Wanda is amazing as well and had a lot of development cuz well, she’s the co Star and main antagonist lol. Overall in terms of MCU movies I’d probably give it an 8.5/10, and it hovers somewhere around my 8-11 ish area for the MCU projects. I really really do like it a lot for what it was. Was it fully what I was expecting? Definitely not. But I went in with an open mind, not expecting cameos galore and being in like dozens of universes, and as a result I really enjoyed it, and have liked it more every time I’ve watched it

[@titaniumcommandrig]

Development? This is just a repeat arc of Wandavision but instead of Vision it’s the twins

[@Jamiiemac]

Buddy wrote a book

[@Zombie_Trooper]

Bingo. I love the film, but it's definitely not devoid of criticism. The movie definitely feels disjointed at times, even for Raimi, but I think ultimately it did come down to expectations. People wanted an MCU film with a ton of cameos and a touch of horror, but instead we got a Raimi film that didn't take itself too seriously and some people just weren't ready for it.

"He was doing it for the greater good, you're doing it for your own good" EXACTLY, man. The scarlet witch is a fantastic villain, but she is... a villain. I see people trying to justify her killing hundreds of people in this movie like wtf ☠️

[@jeezrice7352]

I mean I don’t really need to justify her actions, as soon as you introduce the darkhold…which you know, non-consensually magically alters a person until they are morally corrupt enough to do its bidding…it’s difficult to differentiate what is simply Wanda and what is the darkhold and at the point it doesn’t make any sense to analyze what she is saying and doing as being her own true actions. To me, it’s not that what she is saying isn’t fair because strange did it for a selfless reason and that’s why she’s wrong, it’s that what she is saying isn’t supposed to be truly reasonable and justifiable because she herself does not have total agency to actually think rationally about the things she saying in the scene. She doesn’t have the cognitive capability of looking at things clearly, her behavior personality and perception of reality are at the mercy of a books whose whole purpose is to cause chaos and destruction. It’s like trying to take what a person in a forced drug-induced stupor says or does at face value. It doesn’t really make logistical sense for both the audience nor the characters in the movie to try to understand Wanda’s point of view or reason with her and then try to critically analyze the justifications she is making, because it’s muddled and screened through the darkholds possession of her. It’s why I don’t really understand when people question why she isn’t trying a more reasonable solution to her problem or making more rational decisions in the movie. The darkhold doesn’t magically change people for shits and giggles, it’s entire purpose is to use its victims to sow chaos and death, it’s not gonna take the time and effort of magically corrupting their mind and soul so drastically, just so it victims will actively do inconsequential actions and make rational decisions. I’m sorry, but cthon may need to find a new book to employ if the Darkhold alters it victims to such a huge degree that, an initially nice and caring person, can morph into to a psychopathic murderer in like a few months, but also still makes them capable of being easily dispatched and taken care of with simple sound logic and reason.

[@mr.moviemafia]

I know lots of people were disappointed by the cameos and how little they were around, but since I had to wait multiple weeks to see it, I got exposed to a lot of the discourse and was able to appropriately prepare myself for what the movie was actually like. My expectations were humbled and enjoyment of the movie was exponentially increased. I also honestly appreciate that this movie didn’t get bogged down with shoving endless multiversal cameos down our throats, which they very easily could have done. Instead, Sam Raimi was able to use the multiverse in a more meaningful way by showcasing other versions of Stephen Strange & Wanda Maximoff to better fit the thematic arcs that they’re going through and enrich the story. For everyone saying this movie wasted its cameos, I must ask why? THIS universe’s versions of them did die, but the MCU (Universe 616) version that we’re bound to see are completely open and untouched. We can absolutely see more of them, this was just a creative way to have these actors in THIS movie and gave them some fun, Raimi-esque deaths. I’m just so incredibly grateful we got them at all and I’m looking forward to hopefully seeing more of them in the future (we know 100% they’re making Fantastic 4 and things with mutants).

this. everyfuckingone has some sort of willful ignorance about shit in this movie cuz they just wanna bitch and moan. The characters will be back--it's an infinite multiverse

[@maxducoudray]

I just thought the actual treatment of the Illuminati was cheesy in its implementation. Making every single one of them an easter egg instead of a character we know from the mainstream MCU was just pushing the boundaries. And then Black Bolt and Mr. Fantastic both had goofy CGI that didn't really look good.

[@Crilyte]

@@Seraphilms we've seen those guys fight, yes. But none of them ever fought the Scarlet Witch. Doesn't matter how good they are at fighting. The Scarlet Witch will kill those that were friends with Wanda to achieve her goal to get her kids. Not sure if she'd kill Pietro, Natasha, or Clint, though

Personally, I never got the cameos criticism even watching opening weekend. They did exactly what cameos are for; they showed up and they did something cool. If they were in it longer then they would be characters in the film but they are just cameos.

[@thedoctor4327]

Not the best MCU film or multiverse film to come out in 2022 (that remains “Everything Everywhere All At Once “) but I enjoyed it mostly because I was hoping Sam Raimi would lean into his Evil Dead roots to make a horror themed superhero film and he did that in spades. It was very creepy yet funny so it basically was an Evil Dead spiritual successor, especially due to Bruce Campbell’s cameo as someone whose body gets possessed and starts attacking him. I think some people expected this to be like No Way Home and with extended storylines with the Marvel Fox characters (the FF and the X-Men). IMO Raimi wisely restricted them to cameos and sacrifices for the horror vibe. Beyond that I think he nailed the Illuminati as a group of arrogant heroes whose pride and confidence in their abilities blew up (literally in Black Bolt’s case) in their faces. Only real complaint I have is Wanda going full villain instead of learning from her mistake at Westview. Beyond that I loved the visuals, the performances, and some very creative moments.

The Illuminati are a Super hero Supreme Court. In the comics they sent Hulk to another planet. That story is told in the Marvel animated movie Planet Hulk.

[@mg3291]

I know you said you don’t read the comics so not hating for not knowing but the illuminate is a huge group in the comics, they try and guide events on earth for good. That group is usually Charles Xavier, Reed Richards, Tony Stark, Black Bolt, Namor and of course, Dr Strange. And America is a pretty common name for women in Latin America

@@overfiend1978 I think it would have stolen the show way too much. In a movie abundant with cameos. It would have been cool to see but I get why they didn’t

Dude, I went to watch this on Acid, it was most definitely trippy.

Like Agatha said in Wandavision. Wanda's chaos magic works on autopilot. Very well could have saved her from being killed.

Her brother quicksilver died when they fought ultron too

I'm not concerned about you not knowing certain characters from comics or anything like that as you warned in the intro, but no love for Bruce Campbell?? He's the best my hometown had to offer the world. All hail Pizza Papa!! :P
