Doctor Strange News & Speculation thread - Part 1

[TheVision]

now the Infinity War EW cover is gonna be SICK.

I was pretty skeptical about Cumberbatch as an action star but he's looking pretty good.

You didnt see Star Trek 2? He played Khan and hes actually does more brutal fighting in that then Ive seen in the Nolan Batman movies (worst fight scenes ever) or most of the MCU films besides TWS.

He can definitely kick azz in action sequences.

 

[Matt Mortem]

Strange looks better than I could have hoped. I'm immensely happy with what they've done. I was worried that in attempts to "modernize" the costume they'd water it down to barely resemble the caped Strange from the comics, but boy was I wrong. Looks fantastic.

Yeah, I'm glad they went with the classic look and not that black modern version like this:

I was thinking they probably would go with that, but am happy they stuck with the classic.

I thought they'd do something similar to that as well. Never been happier to be wrong.

Given Marvel's previous behavior in these situations, I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Strange return to a more traditional look in the comics when his film comes out.

 

[Zant]

He looks great, and to think he was not even the first or second choice for the role. Hope he uses his British accent.

Already happened, in fact:

Personally, I had always assumed they'd take the modern look, which I love, but seeing just how amazing this turned out, I wouldn't have it any other way.

 

[terry78]

Not bad. Like RDJ he's not like so unrecognizable I don't know it's him, but he looks good.

 

[BatsDC]

[TheVision]

Yep thats full Sorcerer Supreme mode. This movie is gonna be crazy fun. Im really looking fwd to seeing the mystical side of the MCU.

Im predicting Oscar noms for the SFX, costume and set designers on this film.

 

[BoredGuy]

[ImSGirl95]

The Infinity Stones can be seen here!! At the up right there are 6 colors with the same colors of the Gems!!

 

[First Avenger]

Oh. My. God.

 

[Sebastos]

Looking like another home run for Marvel (though no surprise), pure awesome!

 

[StarLord]

Lawd.

 

[Snakewise]

His hair isn't dark enough, the movie is doomed

Seriously though, he looks awesome and I can't wait.

 

[Silvermoon]

So the main villain is not going to be Mordo? Interesting. I'm guessing they are also saving Dormammu for a potential sequel.
