1 00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:05,920 Speaker 1: Hello, Welcome to the Spoiler Version review of Doctor Strange 2 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:09,840 Speaker 1: and the Multiverse of Madness. This podcast has no rules 3 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,119 Speaker 1: when we can say all the plot lines, very laid 4 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 1: back review, because it's hard to review a Marvel movie 5 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,599 Speaker 1: when you can't say any of the plot points because 6 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:19,800 Speaker 1: everybody thinks everything is a spoiler. That was a very 7 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 1: tough review to do. So I'm glad we're here now 8 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: and able to talk about it two weeks after the 9 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,640 Speaker 1: release and get into all the nitty gritty, and my 10 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 1: wife Kelsey is here. You haven't done one of these 11 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: with me before? No, I haven't you excited to talk spoilers? 12 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: Love a spoiler? No, I really don't. There's a warning 13 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: on this one that it comes to spoilers. And I 14 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,919 Speaker 1: think we had different opinions after watching this movie we 15 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: left the theater. You thought it was amazingly. You were like, 16 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 1: I was one of the best Marvel movies. Yeah, I 17 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 1: thought it was really good and I was like, left 18 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: a lot to be desired. So I before we get 19 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: into what I guess I didn't like more than you did, 20 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: let's talk about what we did like about the movie. 21 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: Why did you have that feeling leave in the movie theater. 22 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think back, it's been like two weeks ago. 23 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 1: I loved Elizabeth Olson in it, Okay, I love her 24 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: like I think she is phenomenal as Wanda, So do 25 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 1: I and I think that's why I didn't enjoy the 26 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: movie as much. But before we get into that, was 27 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: it her character in the movie. Just for her portrayal 28 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: of it. She's so good and convincing as an actress. 29 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 1: I get that. What else about it? Well, I so 30 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: I hadn't seen the original Doctor Strange, the first one. 31 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: I didn't know Rachel McAdams was in it. And then 32 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: I was shocked because I was like, wow, Rachel McAdams 33 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: has range like as an actress he does, You're like, 34 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: everybody's in the MCU Now, I was like, is there 35 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: anyone not in the Marvel universe at this point? Basically 36 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: Mark Wahlberg, Yes, he'd really like to be in. He 37 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: would like to be in waiting for that invite. I 38 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: really liked. I liked one division coming into this, and 39 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: I think that's why it was hard for me to 40 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: enjoy this movie. And I feel like I looked at 41 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: this a little bit more critically than I usually do. 42 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: Because marvels in this phase four that I'm not super 43 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: highly invested in. And also I just didn't love the 44 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: first Doctor Strange. I feel like he's a really good 45 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: supporting character, but him as a lead, it's not my 46 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: go to. It's not my jam, it's not my jelly. Also, 47 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: can we talk about how it took me forever to 48 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: realize that one division was Wanda Envision, even though watch 49 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: whole show and it was Wanda Envision, but one division 50 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: does one word as a concept went right over my head. 51 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: And I'm a pretty intelligent person, so I'm a little embarrassment. 52 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,839 Speaker 1: So yeah, I didn't love her as the villain here. 53 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: Although I loved Elizabeth Olsen her performance in it, it 54 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: was just hard to root against her, which I know 55 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: some people said, well she was a villain in one division, debatable, 56 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 1: but I just felt like her character didn't deserve that. 57 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: But I also feel like you get why she's being 58 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: in the villain. Yeah, Like it's not like I've feel 59 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: like most villains like they want the power or the money, 60 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: the money infinity stones, but like she just wanted to 61 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: be with her family, And so then you're also like, 62 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: does not make her a villain, Like I get that 63 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: she was the villain, but it's like she just wanted 64 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: to be in a universe, in a world where like 65 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: her children were real and existed, and she got to 66 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: love them and be their moms something. That's why I 67 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: was fighting for. I didn't see the struggle. I didn't 68 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: see the conflict because that at the very beginning, I know, 69 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: Dr Strange has the dream where he sees America chob 70 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: as his character in it, and then it just kind 71 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: of jumps into him wanting to defend her out of 72 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: kind of nowhere, which I get. Yeah, her plan was 73 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: to kill her and take her powers, but he had 74 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: just met her, Like I don't know, I don't always 75 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,119 Speaker 1: feel like he's the most heroic character and doing things 76 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: like just saving people for the sake of saving people. 77 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: That it told really made sense that he in no 78 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: way was trying to kind of reason with Wanda or 79 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: help her out anymore. He would just automatically like I'm 80 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: going to defend her. But was there any way for 81 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: him to help Wanda? Was there any other way for 82 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: her to limit that universe without having America's powers? No, 83 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: I'm probably not, And what would she what else would 84 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: she do with those. We can't guarantee that she would 85 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: just go to that universe. It's hard, it's hard conflicts, 86 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 1: and my heart felt conflicted. I did like the action 87 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: in it, and I liked when it got grittier and darker. 88 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: I thought it could have gone more full into that. 89 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: I think the moment I had the most excitement was 90 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 1: whenever they went into the multiverse and she killed people. Yeah, 91 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: she shraded up like murdered people, which I thought was amazing. 92 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: Like that part of it I haven't seen in a 93 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: Marvel movie before where a superhero has died, where there 94 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: has been Are we going to talk about who she killed? Yeah, 95 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: it's a spoiler. Probably. I'm saying, is this your ramp 96 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: up to it? Or do we do we throw that 97 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: in before we keep talking. I just she killed John 98 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: Kasincy's character, who is one of the Fantastic Four. She 99 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: killed all those, She killed all of them, and which 100 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: I thought that was a great cameo. I wasn't expecting 101 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: Professor X. I wasn't expecting the X Men to come 102 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: into Marvel like this, which I thought was cool because 103 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: I feel like when you talk about Marvel movies, you 104 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: don't really give credit to those original X Men movies, 105 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: which were so huge when they came out and had 106 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: such an impact on what superhero movies could be that 107 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: we kind of forget about those because the m c 108 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: U is kind of taking over everything. So it was 109 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: cool to see Professor X come back. I don't care 110 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 1: about the Fantastic Four. I know people were hyped to 111 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: see John Krasinski in the m c you now, but 112 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: I mean, this is the third already done. I just 113 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: can't not Spider Man. I just can't be excited about 114 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: Fantastic Four anymore. It's not that interesting to me. So 115 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: I felt like the cameos were decent. Aside from Professor X. 116 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: It was okay, but it didn't really have that same 117 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: kind of like wow factor when we saw No Way Home. Yeah, 118 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: totally different. But I think what Marvel is experiencing now 119 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: is kind of an identity crisis of like, you have 120 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: all I know, right, we have all the shows kind 121 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 1: of going along. But this movie didn't really want to 122 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: make me watch the next movie. This movie didn't make 123 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: you want you said a few too many words in 124 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: that sentime. This movie didn't make me want to watch 125 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: the next Marvel movie. They're not really connected anymore, Like 126 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: this isn't going to lead into thor and I felt 127 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 1: like the movie they wanted to make here after everything 128 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 1: was over and after I kind of saw the whole 129 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 1: thing coming of him, kind of having his redemption at 130 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 1: the end of not taking her powers and saying no, 131 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: you can finally do this, like I just came out 132 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: of nowhere, like all of a sudden, she can harness 133 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: it and control it and is able to use it, 134 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: and then all she does is take one to to 135 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: show her that she is the villain. I just felt like, 136 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: what should have happened in this movie to make it 137 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: more impactful and to make it something like a bit grander, 138 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: which I know that's what everybody wants somebody to say 139 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: how to redo a movie, But I think Dr Strange 140 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: should have died. I think that would have had a 141 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: much more impact of how it started at the beginning, 142 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: of him killing America to take her powers to save 143 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: the world. I think he should have sacrificed himself and died. 144 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: And then I know at the end of the movie 145 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: where it kind of leaves like, oh, everything's back to normal, 146 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: and then you see his third eye and that kind 147 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: of lead into the next one. I already forgot end 148 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: telling you two weeks I felt like you could have 149 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: still had that same moment, but in that moment he 150 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: sacrifices himself. Doctor Strange dies the big him ocean a moment, 151 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: and then kind of like he came back to life 152 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: as a zombie. He comes back to life at the end, 153 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: shows a little glimpse of like, oh, he's still alive. 154 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: I felt like that would have been a little bit 155 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: more of an impact of like killing him, and then 156 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: the next movie is maybe him and another multiverse still alive, 157 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: which is probably what the next one is gonna be of, 158 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: you know, the Third Eye, what is going on there. 159 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: But I just felt like it didn't leave me wanting more, 160 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: which is the feeling I've had after every other Marvel movie, 161 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: like I can't wait to watch the next one. And 162 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: it had such a great line, great lead in with 163 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: Spider Man. That was the only reason I was really 164 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: excited about this movie. Spider Man is also hard to 165 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: follow up. That's is my favorite, but it doesn't lead 166 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: me to want to watch and see how they kind 167 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 1: of wrap up Doctor Strange, which I assume we'll probably 168 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: just get a trilogy. But even the I mean even 169 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: going back to my favorite parts of the movie, like 170 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: the Professor X cameo, there wasn't a whole lot of 171 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: action in that, and really in the entire movie, like 172 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: that whole scene is just them sitting down basically having 173 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: like a like an Avengers podcast. They were just talking 174 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: like they weren't really doing anything. And this is supposed 175 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: to be one of the most pivotal scenes. It was 176 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: just all those characters cameos and them talking. I liked 177 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: the cinematography of it. I think my favorite scene was 178 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: when a doctor Strange first goes to visit Wanda and 179 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: then she turns it into like burned down land, Like 180 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: I thought that was so cool. I thought that part 181 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: was a little shocking. Yeah, I think Wanda is like normal, 182 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: and then that happens and it was just like the 183 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: scorch start. I was like, oh, that's pretty cool. That 184 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: was a cool moment there. I think visually this movie 185 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: was great, a lot of cool special effects. I was 186 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: a nerd in kind of said that some of this 187 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: h G I was a little bit distracting, but that 188 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: was probably me over analyzing it a bit. It's good 189 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: to know that you who doesn't really get annoyed by 190 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: those type of things, weren't as affected by that. No, 191 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: I don't notice anything like that. What about do you 192 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: feel like generally after the movie, you were just like, 193 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: that was fun. That's all I really needed. Yeah, it 194 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: was also only two hours, which was love. That was 195 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: my next point. I don't mind watching a two twenty 196 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: two and a half hour Marvel movie, which is kind 197 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: of the norm now, but this one had a little 198 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: bit of a deeming quality that it was just two hours, 199 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: not because I wanted to get out of there, not 200 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: because I think it needed to be shorter, but it 201 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: was like the perfect amount of time for this story 202 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: that if it would have been an extra ten twenty minutes, 203 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: I would have ranked this even lower. But it kind 204 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: of showed that you can make a good superhero movie 205 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: right at two hours, and I think that's great. I mean, 206 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: I yeah, I don't mind watching two enough hours if 207 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: it doesn't feel like it's been two and a half hours, 208 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,719 Speaker 1: but like if I'm starting to like get tired, I 209 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: don't know, checking my phone, like that's when I'm like, okay, 210 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: this has gone on a little too long. Keeps your 211 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 1: attention for the whole two and a half. But this 212 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: was perfect, just like right like two hours. I think 213 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: we went at like six thirty on a Friday home 214 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: by nine, and I would rather see two hours of 215 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,719 Speaker 1: like steady action then having like a big moment of 216 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: just talking, which I felt I did get a little 217 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: bit in this, but you know, that is what it 218 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: is at this point. Uh, Do you think that this 219 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: movie needed to be seen on the big screen? Because 220 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: I think that's what Marvel kind of pride themselves on 221 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,839 Speaker 1: of making an event. I don't know if anymore it's 222 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: so much that it requires the big screen, then we 223 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: just have to go watch it the week it comes 224 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: out because all the spoilers will start to come out. 225 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: Do you think this one needed the big screen or 226 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: just like we gotta watch it before the spoilers happen. 227 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I think some of the cinematography does. 228 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: And like some of the scenes where they're like defending 229 00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: the is that a castle? It's not a castle the 230 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 1: Sorcerer place. Yes, like those when they're like doing like 231 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: four shields, Like I feel like things like that like 232 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: don't look as good as a pretty big moment. I'd 233 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: say the first like twenty thirty minutes of it were 234 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: on a pretty major scale that being in the theater 235 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: with I think even at one point I just kind 236 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: of felt that rumbling again and had that kind of 237 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: it's weird to say, a nostalgic experience from ten years ago, 238 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: but it reminded me of going to watch an early 239 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: Avengers movie like back of like, oh this this kind 240 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: of looks like it. The cinematography kind of looks like it, 241 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: and I kind of had that feeling again. Was that No, 242 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: it was the other moment we saw like a week 243 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: before with the girl brought like her own meal or 244 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: was that Doctor Strange. No, I think that was Doctor Strange. 245 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: She brought a bowl, brought like a bowl from like Kaba, 246 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: which I mean respect, but then it kind of small 247 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,199 Speaker 1: like Mediterranean tune in the theater. It smell like dinner 248 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: throughout the entire theater. Which was that the same one 249 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: where I brought my own beas beef jernky and you 250 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 1: were like, you gotta close that up. No, okay, the 251 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: all bringing her dinner was when we saw everything everywhere 252 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: all at once, but you're bringing your vegan dirky was 253 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: and it literally smells it smells like regular beef turkey, 254 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: and I was like, you've got to put that away. 255 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: It's smells like beef turkey in the theater. Now, what's 256 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: the funniest thing that you've ever taken into movie theater? 257 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 1: Food wise? Taco bell, Beep five layer burritos. I took 258 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: a Thundercloud sub one time. That one its sub is 259 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: pretty easy because the sandwich, well, it's big. It's it's 260 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: no easy, and I get all the fixings when there's 261 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: like lettuce everywhere thunder sauce. But the thing with taking 262 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: hot food or food that has a smell is it's 263 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: pretty easily detectable. My best friend, I'm gonna throw under 264 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: the buster. She and her sister took Panda expressed to 265 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: him movie one time. I mean, I feel like, no 266 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: rules kind of go anymore. If you can get inside 267 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: the theater, nobody really cares. I mean, the people's theater 268 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: don't care. It's only frowned upon. It's not illegal. You 269 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: get scared sometimes. I later going to bust us because 270 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: your your whole baggage, fool like. It's fine, it's really 271 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 1: they only frowned up one. Yeah, I thought it was illegal. 272 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 1: How is it going to be illegal. I don't know, 273 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: no outside food or drink permitted. They can make a rule. 274 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: There's like somebody going to bust in and be like, 275 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, ma'm I'm need to open up that purse. 276 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: They might look in a coffee a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, 277 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: the hardest part is finding the right time to crack 278 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: it open. You never picked the right moment. I'd never do. 279 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: You were terrible. I don't really care at this point. 280 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: Crack it open. I mean, I've heard someone bring in 281 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: their own, like a six pack before and crack it 282 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: open in a movie, So a coffee is really not 283 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: that bad, It's true. I kind of want to know, now. 284 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: Can we can we start like a pole for people 285 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: to respond and say the weirdest food they've ever taken 286 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: into a movie theater? Okay, we can post that when 287 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: we posted the promo for this podcast. I really want 288 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: to know. Okay, I look forward to seeing these answers 289 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: because I'm sure somebody's broughably a five course meal before. 290 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: I one time took in when I made brownies and 291 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: like frosted him and my friend brought a tup or 292 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: container container. But to Alamo Drafthouse where they like servial 293 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: full meal and she just like hit her topwork container 294 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: in a fork and eat brownie under the table. It's funny. 295 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: So I want to know, No, that's my heart. What 296 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: is the weirdest thing you've ever brought to a movie theater? Food? Food? Food? 297 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: Who that is not the weirdest thing. That's a whole 298 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: different topic. Let's clarify that. Back to Marvel. I think 299 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: the weird part now is I don't know when, like 300 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: other people are going to start popping up in Marvel movies. 301 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: Like shang Chi was such a great standalone movie, and 302 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: it was so fun and refreshing and a brand new character, 303 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: and often like what the whole plan was before in 304 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: the whole structure of Marvel before was all the movies 305 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: were leading up to the next Avengers movie. We don't 306 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 1: really have that anymore, which I kind of miss And 307 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: the other day somebody commented that I'm kind of like 308 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: an older Marble fan now and there's like new Marvel fans, 309 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: which I don't want to I don't know that makes me. 310 00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: I don't like the way that makes me feel like 311 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm trying to reminisce on the older days. No, it's 312 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: just that you've been there. I think through all of 313 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: the eras, Like I I truly believe that, like the Avengers, 314 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: it was like the Golden era Marvel. I don't think 315 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: it'll get any better than that. They can still put 316 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: out great content, but I think that was like peak Marvel. 317 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: Infinity Saga was like and even like when they started, 318 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: like it was so exciting to always be like there's 319 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: an Iron Man, new Captain America, like leading up to them, 320 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: like the Avengers, and like that was like the Golden 321 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: Age Marvel. And I know now they're kind of at 322 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: least on the plane of like creating like a young Avengers, 323 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: with like you know, Hawkeye and those characters kind of 324 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 1: being introduced. I feel like there is something there. I 325 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: don't feel like it will have that same kind of 326 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: impact yet, but I also feel since there are now 327 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: kind of different Marvel fans like me, when you know, 328 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: I lean a little bit more old school, which sounds weird. 329 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: I still love everything Marvels, just those things, I mean, 330 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 1: I think that's fair to say, but I feel like 331 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: now they can kind of cater to different Marvel fans. 332 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: It is such a huge universe now people who want 333 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: a little bit more of the new characters can maybe 334 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,679 Speaker 1: focus more on like the Disney Plus shows. If you 335 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 1: want that kind of movie experience, you go and see 336 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: the films. I feel like they kind of split a 337 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: little bit. Maybe they'll kind of join back together, but 338 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: they're kind of crushing on both ends that it really 339 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,479 Speaker 1: doesn't matter what they do because they just have like 340 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 1: this kind of force. Now it is a cash cow, 341 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 1: like if you want to make a movie that's gonna, 342 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 1: you know, bring a lot of revenue, you make a 343 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: Marvel movie. I would almost love to see them kind 344 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: of create like an art house version of like like 345 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: a subsidiary of like Marvel to where they make movies 346 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: that are a little bit more indie, which sounds weird, 347 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 1: but I would be curious to explore an entirely different 348 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: world where superheroes exist, but they're not superhero movies. It's 349 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: like normal everyday kind of stories that you would go 350 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 1: see like type movie, a little bit more slice of life, 351 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: but in that whole kind of realm of like superheroes 352 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: just happened to exist. I feel like everyone just got 353 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 1: a taste of like what it's like to sit across 354 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: from the table and have dinner with you when you 355 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,719 Speaker 1: get like we're really going on a that just sounds 356 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: fascinating to me. If it's just like this dude and 357 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: this girl meeting and having, you know, this weird relationship 358 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:39,199 Speaker 1: and they're having to deal with repercussions of like you know, 359 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 1: the eternals ripping through their city, the aftermath that comes 360 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 1: of that. I feel like the c W makes a 361 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: lot of shows like that. Oh really, may many click 362 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 1: over the Vampire al right, maybe I'll find it there. 363 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: Any final things you want to say about Doctor Strange 364 00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: that are spoiler worthy that we couldn't mention before. I 365 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,680 Speaker 1: still think Dr Strange should have died. I think it 366 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: should have been more madness. We really only saw like 367 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: what three multiverses, and we had also just watched everything 368 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: Everywhere all at once, which now that dealt with a 369 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: lot of multi verses and kind of really was so 370 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 1: playful and experimental, and it felt like a lot of 371 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,719 Speaker 1: different movies inside of one where I felt like, if 372 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: you call something the multiverse of madness, wasn't a whole 373 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 1: lot of madness for me. I wanted to be weirder. Really. 374 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: The only time we saw that is when their first 375 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 1: kind of going through all the multiverses and you get 376 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: a glimpse of them, but they don't really interact with 377 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 1: them a whole lot. Like I wanted to see them 378 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: in that paint world. I think that would have been interesting. 379 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: Trying to remember which one that was. I think they 380 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:50,959 Speaker 1: like turned to blobs of paint for a little bit. 381 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: It was very quick, and they referenced it later in 382 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: the movie. But I just felt like it could have 383 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: had a lot more fun, even if it was just 384 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: like a sequence of them going through all the different 385 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: multiverses like that. I felt like we got that towards 386 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: the end once he was zombie strange, but wasn't enough 387 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 1: for to win me back. Still, I still enjoyed it. 388 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a bad movie. If I had 389 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: to rank it among the other Marvel movies, I still 390 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: probably put at bottom ten. Where would you put it? 391 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: There's so many movies. I don't don't ask me that 392 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: question on the spot. I've got to get like my 393 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 1: pen and paper. I mean, it wasn't my favorite favorite thing. Ever. 394 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: I thought it was a really good Marvel movie. I 395 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 1: thought it was really well done. I loved Elizabeth Olsen 396 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: because a lot of them. I don't know. I feel 397 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: like in a lot of the Marvel movies, like the 398 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: female characters kind of more of like sidekick. Yeah, it's true. 399 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: I thought she was great in it. She was quite 400 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 1: the dominant force, and I felt like almost had like 401 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: superpowers that nobody could really take down. They had to 402 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: take her down on an emotional level. Yeah, she was 403 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:06,239 Speaker 1: like indestructible, like superhero wise. Yeah, So that is our 404 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: thoughts on Dr Strange full spoiler review. We'll have, uh, 405 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: probably at least another spoiler episode to come after Thor. 406 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: We really only do these whenever there's a big movie 407 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: that there's like plot points you can't talk about fully 408 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: in giving a review. I don't feel like Top Gun 409 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: really requires a spoiler free review. I feel like that's 410 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: probably gonna be exactly like the first one. So probably 411 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: the next time we do one of these is when 412 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: Thor comes out. Anything else you want to say, I 413 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: think that's all I have. All Right, We will talk 414 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: to you next week here on the podcast. Later
