Is this that Hamilton musical I've been hearing about?

 

[Currygan]

so Chiwetel just gonna stroll around wearing his regular face?

 

[fallengorn]

Did you miss that part where Daredevil and Elektra were fighting a bunch of

zombie ninjas

?

Would be funny if Daredevil showed up and beat the crap out of his buddies.

 

[guek]

It's motha-fuckin morphin' time, bitches

 

[GarthVaderUK]

This is my most anticipated Marvel movie, can't wait!

 

[Red_Man]

For someone who isn't familiar with the source material, who's the power rangers in the back ground?

 

[Mariolee]

Prediction: this movie will have more color and style than the actual upcoming Power Rangers movie.

 

[MMarston]

first thing that came to mind

This is eerily on point.

 

[Currygan]

just noticed Benny's hand gestures, he probably using some spell wohooo

 

[Savitar]

Mystic Ninja Force!

 

[DOWN]

This is so cheesy looking. The costumes look awful

 

[Alexandre]

This is so cheesy looking. The costumes look awful

Cause they are realer than real set pictures...

Throw some edit in this and it will look completely diffenret

 

[Krathoon]

Well, Doctor Strange does get pretty crazy.

I am hoping for portals, inter-dimensional travel, and all other kinds of magical shenanigans.

 

[Will the Thrill]

At this point I'm surprised anyone in the MCU even wants to still live in New York City. BTW, is this an origin story or are we just gonna head right into full Doctor Strange?

I hope they give us full acid trip Dr. Strange. Go all out with this shit.

 

[Jarmel]

That last shot is hilarious.

 

[Wag]

the fact that dr strange wears sneakers, help

 

[Renekton]

Not familiar with Dr. Strange, who are those guys?

 

[G-Fex]

I don't give a fuuuuuuck

I just want more comic book fun.

 

[Escape Goat]

Feige confirmed its an origin story because most people dont know who he is and its a stiry thats not been done before.

 

[Ponn]

Yup, thats Dr. strange alright. Even as a comic fan I couldn't help cracking up at those pics though. It's kinda like re-watching the first Avengers movie and realizing how ridiculous Caps costume was and how much better it was they switched him back to his old one.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I've set my expectations quite low for this. This shit needs to go all out acid trip visual effects combined with amazing cinematography and we'll probably end up with just another Marvel film that barely taps into that.

I hope I'm wrong.

 

[Krathoon]

When Infinity Gauntlet started in the comics, Silver Surfer crashes through the skylight in Doctor Strange's house. I really hope they do that in the movies.

 

[Blues1990]

The only thing that I care about for this movie, is how they will adapt Steve Ditko's psychedelic landscapes, when he was doing interior artwork during the character's early run.

 

[Sheroking]

Okay, they look RIDICULOUS. The costume department needs to be fired, STAT!

You know how often this is said about set photos in super hero films, only to NEVER be an issue when the film releases?

Like 1/3 films at least.

 

[Escape Goat]

I've set my expectations quite low for this. This shit needs to go all out acid trip visual effects combined with amazing cinematography and we'll probably end up with just another Marvel film that barely taps into that.

I hope I'm wrong.

The films cinematographer:

“It has a very psychedelic grounding, and it’s not your typical Marvel action movie … Most of the work within it is about other dimensions. And I described it, I think, when I was talking to Marvel as Marvel’s Fantasia, in a way, because it’s so sort of out there and different to everything else that they’ve done.”

There’s a lot of previsualisation, and there’s a lot of work which is very hard – you look at it and you see the imagery that they’ve created for it and you think, ‘Well how the hell do we shoot that!?’ because it’s all sort of Escher stuff.

“It’s all very out there. I can’t really say much more about it, I’m afraid. But I think it’ll be really interesting, and it’s a very dark movie, I’m pleased to say … DP’s always love the word ‘dark’. The trouble is that most producers don’t like dark. Mostly you get into DI [Digital Intermediate process] and people don’t seem to like dark anymore!”

Marvel doesn't have issues going full acid trip.

[Gordon Shumway]

These comic book characters seem silly in a real world setting. How does this work? Can't take this seriously without a flying metal suit or flying being from outer space..😐

 

[Dai101]

How does this exists alongside something like daredevil lol

Did you miss that part where Daredevil and Elektra were fighting a bunch of

Yeah. Ant Man was crazy cool. The scenes towards the end were pretty wild. It was best Marvel movie so far.

 

[tycoonheart]

Remember those funny Amazing Spiderman 2 set pics that were released?

Yep, that is what this reminds me of.

 

[kurahador]

Isn't Spiderman rumored to be in this?
I need pictures of Spiderman!!

I remember watching that kiddy Spiderman animated show crossover episode where he gets to wear Doctor Strange's cape.
It was hilarious. Definitely make me hopeful for something like that.

 

[Blablurn]

Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Tilda Swinton and Mads Mikkelsen.

The casting for this movie is INSANE

what could go wrong

 

[Fandangox]

I'm hyped for Power Rangers: Mystic Force.

Spoiler

I'm not being sarcastic, I'm super excited for this movie.

What I thought lol, "Marvel's Strange Rider"

lol..I've gotta bite the bullet and watch this nonsense some day.

 

[the_batman]

do they have to make a separate movie for every comic book character?

is Doctor Strange even a hero or villain?

 

[inky]

lol..I've gotta bite the bullet and watch this nonsense some day.

Just youtube some scenes. You are not missing much.

It's completely awful.

is Doctor Strange even a hero or villain?

He's a hero, but he deals mostly with otherworldly threats and demons and mystic shit like that.

 

[Mr Cola]

I have enough faith in Marvel to make their usual 6/10 movie where the opening third is the best part and they forget the story in lieu of a visual assault and sketchy motives.

Surprisingly thats not the worst thing in the world, perfectly watchable formula, if a tad bit disappointing because they have some wonderful characters.

 

[Escape Goat]

do they have to make a separate movie for every comic book character?

Why not?

Dr Strange is a hero.

 

[Fat4all]

Trust me, there's way more obscure and stupid comic book characters than Doctor Strange.

He's one of the better one imo.

These are encouraging but I'm still keeping expectations low because... Well, it doesn't hurt. Definitely gonna need a trailer soon to see how they're handling it.

Marvel doesn't have issues going full acid trip.

They must take that and multiply it by 10.

 

[BatDan]

Hero.
There are no villain movies announced.

 

[watershed]

This looks hilarious.

 

[samar11]

Is it true that Doctor Strange is one of the most powerful superhero in the universe ?

 

[Krathoon]

I am curious if they are going to have Adam Warlock be the leader of the super heroes in the Infinity Gauntlet films or they give that position to Doctor Strange.

 

[Dodecagon]

Is it true that Doctor Strange is one of the most powerful superhero in the universe ?

Yes he's always doing dark shit that can tear apart the entire fabric of existence. Then getting monkey's pawed into bad deals with demons in exchange for powers

 

[Fat4all]

Is it true that Doctor Strange is one of the most powerful superhero in the universe ?

In the comics he's up there big, but I dunno exactly how they're gonna handle him in the MCU.

 

[BLACKLAC]

Feige said that's only a small taste of what's to come in Strange.
