[@Th3Birdman]

You might be wondering why I decided to continue responding to this person. Well, the answer is I don't have an answer. I just felt like it. While I was on an extremely relaxing month-long vacation in Japan this past month, I got an extreme itch to make content, and I love to argue, so I figure why not pick this back up and continue smoking this idiot. I would also say it's probably because I respond as a point of honor, as I dislike when there are false narratives about me out there, and well... I like to argue. You won't get the last word with me, especially when it's some easily refuted bullshit like this. That said, I'm genuinely at a crossroads on whether I should continue this back and forth. We're now over an hour and 40 minutes into this nonsense, and it's incredibly tiring to continue repeating myself over and over. We'll see how Future Birdman feels, but Present Birdman is tired. Anyway, enjoy this skewering Watch the previous video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKq0eIWHgtlsbdE

[@revenantronin8377]

I've said this before, but I'll say it again. Multiverse of Madness PROVED that giving Thanos the time Gem wasn't the "ONLY" option. We saw a world where Dr. Strange actually had agency and did what Birdman suggested, and arrived at "The Book of Vishanti". There was no Engame in that world, only Infinity War. And that Dr. Strange actually recruited the Fantastic Four, Inhumans and X-Men on top of the Avengers. He was actually overly meticulous and prepared for Thanos... but even then, he wasn't without faults. So even in canon MCU, "our" Dr. Strange is just dumb and reckless.

[@jackjax7921]

Hes not dumb. There are just forces you can't deal with intellect alone.

[@revenantronin8377]

@@jackjax7921 I guess my point wasn't clear. I agree. The thing is, Strange thinks he's smart enough for magic, making him dumb for thinking that way. I guess a better word would be arrogance or recklessness, but that's a character flaw that makes him who he is (at least in the MCU).

Even more than his deconstruction of bad film critics, I absolutely love watching Birdman pick apart his critics. It’s so satisfying watching bad faith arguments get called out and see lies completely exposed. It’s a genre of entertainment in itself.

Very interesting point about his clapping to emphasise his point being taken from another culture. As pretty much his entire channel seems to be about that. Making a video in the style of someone else, adding increasingly elaborate insults which he clearly took from Madvocate, clapping to emphasise his point which he’s observed others doing - this Nut lacks any integrity or ability to think for himself or come up with his own style.

it's really incredible to see how consistantly inconsistant shandy's characterization is. one moment he's shutting down your response with an explaination, and then shuts down your response where you use that exact explaination.

[@CaptainphoenixofficialYT]

Another point you could have raised for Strange is that even at the point of no return, after viewing the 14 million timelines, he could have simply used the time stone to travel back to the beginning of the movie when Bruce crashed in the Sanctum Santorum and used your method of defeating Thanos. Up until Thanos takes the Time Stone, there is literally no version of this movie where Strange would be "running out of time". Shandy was pulling that one out of thin air and hoped you wouldn't notice.

[@cleverpsyche115]

Good thing you got this out before he could make a response to the first one. Dude basically was gonna gish gallop you rather than hear your whole argument, since the guy apparently needed 3 hours to make his point.

[@Th3Birdman]

That's part of the reason I headed him off, as I saw his community post right before I went to Tokyo, and although I responded, he failed to address anything I asked him in my response. So while I was in Japan, I got the urge to respond just to force him to have more he needs to respond to. Only problem was I didn't have my equipment out there, otherwise I'd have responded sooner It's like, you want to do this KZbin shit? Cool, let's do it then, cause I do this full time.

On the subject of why didn't Dr Strange avoid the conflict and look into the future for a way to defeat Thanos, it's because Strange is arrogant. Even with Hulk and Tony's warning, Strange probably thought he was a good enough magician to take on Thanos and crew and win. He probably thought, "I found a way to beat Dormmamu, I can beat this Thanos guy". It wasn't until Strange was on Titan that he realized he was out of his league

A good comparison to Dr. Strange character is Naruto vs Shikamaru. While Naruto is shown to be quite smart and able think of advanced plans on the fly he also prone to rush in to fights without thinking first. Shikamaru on the other hand always thinks first and comes up with plans before action. Naruto would always jump in head first to protect the village while Shikamaru would pause to consider the best way to do so. Ro ties this back to strange, while he's smart he's more like Naruto always jumping in hesd first without thinking. His plan with dormammu isn't proof he isn't reckless it's prof he is but he's able to think on the fly.

The way his video is framed, I wonder if he was doing this commentary while watching the video instead of allowing the video to play through and then writing his script.

[@Th3Birdman]

I think that's exactly how he did this video, which is how CinemaSins writes their videos, and it's why his videos feature all the same problems (such as later pieces of evidence conflicting with earlier parts of the video). He more or less confirmed this is how he does it in the community post; when he was replying to the people that commented on that post, he made claims like "most of (my) video was deriding (his) audio quality", when that was only at the very beginning of the video. This says that he DIDN'T fully watch the video, and instead is going to write his next response video as he goes along.

You can't ignore evidence.

[@SMM5]

To add onto your point about all Dr Strange’s having similar problems with abusing magic, it’s established that variants of the same character all have something in common in some way shape or form Loki Season one showed how Loki’s tend to have trust issues and trickery, No Way Home (among other Spider-Man contents) showed that Spider-Men lose people and become who they are because of it, and Dr Strange 2 shows that Dr Strange’s are reckless with magic and usually do stuff that have dangerous consequences

Yes. It is intrinsict to his personality that he his at least somewhat reckless. Madvocate tried to argue that Strange learned from these mistakes, which is an incredibly strange position to take because he behaves reckless in No Way Home.

[@shaqilsharif4249]

The Stan Lee point perfectly highlights the reason why superhero battles are dumb by design and why people arguing about the Strange vs Spiderman fight is pointless. The story dictates the circumstances in which hero would win, like Stan Lee said. For example, the Ice Man vs Iron Fist fight during Avengers vs X-Men series. Iron Fist completely destroyed Ice Man but it happened to rain, allowing Bobby to rebuild his body and win. It isn't who's stronger or more powerful, it's what are the conditions for the fight to decide who wins or not. For this fight, it was literally if it was gonna rain on that night. Applying this to the NWH fight, the circumstances that allowed Peter to win was due to him being underestimated, being treated like a kid/nuance and Strange using the Mirror dimension to try and trap him, resulting in Peter using geometry to create the trap. If it wasn't for these factors, Spidey would have a much lower chance of coming on top.

[@diecastinsanity483]

There's a psychological term for his insults.. Word salad!

[@Cinemabu11]

Other options Strange could've done: 1. Use a Sling Ring portal on his arm while on Titan instead of waiting for Thanos to come and then launching a surprise attack. 2. Use a Sling Ring portal to launch Thanos into space while on Titan. 3. Draw power from the Dark Dimension seeing how he was comfortable using it in MoM to save America 4. USE THE SLING RING TO CHOP OFF HIS ARM INSTEAD OF TRYING TO PULL IT OFF 😂 He's someone who does what HE believes is best. After DS1 he stopped caring ONLY (or mostly) about himself and caring for others and realizing not everything is about him. He gained a new positive trait, but that lesson he learned didn't solve the issue of HOW he wants to go about helping others. That trait he has, can still undermine his new selfless nature. He's a genius with powerful tools, who learned to be less of an ass and care about other people and help them, but even people like that can have flaws like that. I mean, Iron-Man 1 perfectly exemplifies this as that is essentially a part of Tony's character and the arcs he goes through in these movies. A genius hampered by negative traits

Now that you mention, I have not seen a single ramification for destroying the stone. The people that try to criticize you really need to crawl back in the hole they came out of.

[@jbcatz5]

Shandy put more effort into coming up with insults about you than he did putting his argument together. And they still sound like something a school boy would come up with.

[@mxm8029]

every once in a while, I just rewatch Th3Birdmans old response videos just to re-experience him debunking these fellow 🥜🥜 And it's just satisfying seeing actual logical arguments being made instead off just random rambles that try to mean something. Oh, and Th3Birdmans voice is just amazing to listen to for a long time. Th3Birdman always comes prepared for these 🥜🥜and besides his cinemacins videos these response videos are my favorite video types of yours. Especially your latest one about the flat earthers.

[@Magpie_Media]

I don't always agree with everything you say, Mr birdman, but I subscribed to your channel precisely because I love the way you break down every detail and argue point by point in a (usually) calm manner by using correct (And well informed)* information. It's fucking awesome. Although, I really would stop trying to argue with a brick wall, it'll go absolutely no where. Stay awesome, dude.

45:50 …. Birdman!! That man has a family! 😂😂😂

[@Jaredragon]

you blew my mind... I''ve been getting "Sorcerer supreme" and "Master of the mystic arts" Combined...

[@StefanPietraszak]

In a comic book debate on the matter of "who would win", those guys' heads would implode if they were confronted with Squirrel Girl. Then again, probably not, because they've got the mutant ability of ignoring any material that doesn't fit their preconceived opinion. Hel, those guys are dumb, but amazingly adamant in their wrongheaded opinions. Fun! (Sorry for being ageist, but by the sound of that one pipsqueak's voice he's at most at the tail end of puberty, so maybe give it another ... decade?)

[@Phireo]

To add my own opinion on the matter and your video (specifically, Strange looking ahead with the Time stone): Original video (responding to a nut) small problem: Although it might have been viable, it's reasonable to assume Strange isn't using the Time stone all the time (Something that quickly became a big flaw as shown in What If series) but also that looking into the future requires some amount of time and effort. There's no reason for the doctor to suspect that as soon as he gets Tony (probably after Banner asks him to) Aliens would invade New York. The explanation about Thanos coming and what infinity stones are happened after the reunion with Tony, thus they could have talked for an hour or a few minutes... it's unclear. Similarly, it's unclear for how long Tony and the Guardians were arguing on Titan (and how long it took to look into the future). You are completely right about the characterization of Strange being arrogant and often impulsive know-it-all. But... do we know Strange saw beyond his death (Similar how the Ancient One couldn't)? What if the death of half the galaxy with the possibility of getting them back was the best option in his mind?! Thanos after all did the honorable thing of not killing anyone that he didn't have to after taking his armor off. Only Loki (for betrayal after being given a chance to live already) and Gamorra (Necessary sacrifice) and almost Tony (He got back up multiple times and possibly costed him a ship in Avengers). He could have snapped and finished off everyone he encountered... but didn't. Thanos gave everyone a chance to beat him and he still won. It's very reasonable that any action to destroy a stone or continue fighting him in a different way might still have resulted in massive deaths and Thanos might have won in multiple scenarios. If he could see beyond his death and thus, Endgame happened as expected, then... I guess you might have a point but also... only 3 deaths?! About this video: I have a problem about your argument of Destroying one stone = winning vs Thanos. With 3 Stones, Thanos was invincible already (except Thor, but bear with me). The only stone they could destroy was Mind, he'd still get Time eventually and reverse that. Thanos actually crushed what it looked like the Mirror dimension and negated duplicates/illusions thus, it's quite reasonable to instead assume Strange couldn't hide the Time stone from Thanos forever, after he gets the 4th stone. About Stormbreaker; Without the Mind stone, the fight wouldn't happen in Wakanda and Thanos would have no reason to go there for it, and even if a trap was prepared, we also know Thor isn't really the patient type of super-hero. Now, about the "No reason to continue looking for the stones": Thanos had one before, supposedly used to calculate the % of life wipe needed to create balance or sth like that, but he continued going from world to world, halving the population without the stones... with some of them, he couldn't just snap it, but it'd still be much more efficient than going at it manually as before. About Endgame (not your video). We have too little information about both his future sight (could he see beyond his death) and about his sparkly circles' distance (why didn't he get extra help to fight people on Titan, like... Thor with Stormbreaker, for example), and I have personally big problems with Chump Thanos of What If compared to the movies Chad All that for a drop of blood Thanos. In that case, the easiest explanation I could make is simply: Creating the portal for such long distances is either difficult or requires more than one sorcerer (hint in the exchange with Wong and other sorcerers helping getting so many portals and people from so many places at once. The future sight might have foreseen the TVA or the sacred timeline or the low chance of things succeeding (He can't control everyone, and not every one of his actions might have the same result?!). Unlike the videos you commented against, I am not gonna call you names since you have reasonable arguments, especially if you actually took time to read this long ass comment about my opinion about a fictional world written by a multitude of different authors. Most of the above was written before 30th minute of this videos. I really... can't. What the hell are those two (three?) on?! Never mind the "master" debating technique of trying to find stupid insults for weird reasons, they sound less coherent the more arguments they are bringing to the table, sometimes contradicting themselves in the next sentence. Maybe it's just how the video is edited up. Anyway, if you are still here, hope you enjoyed Japan.

[@tridentsilver766]

Honestly you should make a new series of responding to these lunitics

[@Somedumbasswithbadideas]

Also, strange can straight up rewind time. We saw him do it in episode 4 of what if? It was kinda hard to miss

[@kevinmadcock8999]

Strange was only able to rewind time in the MCU using the Eye of Agamotto, fueled by an infinity stone. He doesn't have that power HIMSELF, he needs cosmic level artefacts to do it.

[@Somedumbasswithbadideas]

@@kevinmadcock8999 at the time of infinity war, he still had the stone. So when shit hit the fan, he could've feasibly gone back and let Birdman's hypothetical play out

[@evanharris2153]

I hope you continue going over this idiot's response. Always makes my road trips entertaining.

[@Vi_Vi_1]

I'm having too much fun with the drama >:D love you Birdman!

[@CanadaWaxSolvent]

The fact that Dr. Strange is reckless and full of hubris is what makes him an interesting character. All the MCU characters have interesting character flaws that keep them from acting like boring bureaucrats,

[@pieguy38]

Lmao great argument. Also just love the concept of a debate and one mf goes I don’t gaf about that evidence.

[@Insaniquangrybirds]

Well said, Birdman. I’m looking through your videos taking writing advice throughout.

[@CanadaWaxSolvent]

I think it's funny that they're trying to build Dr. Strange up as this pristine character by saying he's a brilliant surgeon. As if brilliant surgeon with a god complex isn't a long established cinema trope. It is really difficult to ascertain what this boys really want in their movie characters. Do they want to them to be perfect? Do they want to see character development in every movie they appear in? Do they want to see situations played out as if they were some kind of perfect speed run? To me, they should want the Dr. Strange who would have honed in on the fact that destroying the time stone should have been investigated.. that Bruce's warnings should have been investigated.. Do they want characters who are perfect or do they want characters who have flaws that do open the door to more interesting plot lines, fatter gags, and bigger explosions?

[@KTKZon58]

I read your pinned comment and I'm _always_ down for anyone fighting the good fight against media illiteracy. Keep on rockin it, keep on shockin it homie PS: That Blockbuster hoodie is ACES👍🏿

[@MelvinC3]

Why is he coming for you tho we all know you got the CVS receipts

[@delayed_reaction_man]

Holy spit! I am error! I did not know Strange wasn't the Sorcerer Supreme. I honestly thought because like the rest the people who vanished, he was pronounced dead and the position became vacant, then Wong earned the title through fair competition. I might have to watch No Way Home again to confirm this.

[@Cinemabu11]

I watched the scene. Strange said Wong got it on account of him being gone for 5 years. Strange then says, before Wong interrupts him, that "...if I'd been here, then I..." This indicates he WAS in consideration for being Sorcerer Supreme, but not actual Sorcerer Supreme, and that Wong got it simply got due to Strange no longer being a candidate.

[@duaneflint11]

I have no idea what's going on, but thought I'd listen to Th3Birdman while taking instagram pictures of my new Megumin figure.

[@PandaGodBossMode4GetRecked]

I love how people miss the ordeal of why the avengers lost in infinity war. All of he characters flaws that they refuse to change or haven’t dealt with are contributing factors for them losing. Even tony (a person that people dismiss a lot thinking he’s full of himself or crazy) was right in each instance. The only thing he’s guilt of is splitting the avengers but at the same time (Ya homeboys dog murked ya mom soooo). But also they miss the point of Strange. He could do all these things it’s not that he doesn’t have magic capable of doing so… he just doesn’t. Literally bird man says it over and over and over and seeing dummies who have no idea how to watch a movie,(Being real. At this point that’s what this is about. You don’t even need comic knowledge to do that) complain about stuff that is RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM!!! LIKE JUST LOOK AT THE SCREEN!!!

[@100nohd]

can i ask somethin did you watch loki by any chance ?

[@n00dles4]

@7:28 it's cool that you mentioned Barty Crouch Jr here, you only find out that he was impersonating mad eye moody at the end and details like that make this channel great

[@s0litaire2k]
