I really liked his take on the Sherlock character. I hope they do a part three with him. Good stuff. But then again I like Guy Ritchie films so that probably helped!
Got a tip for us?

Pixar’s Soul. I rather enjoyed it, it’s a very gentle take on the afterlife (and the beforelife).
Indeed, and controversy aside, I hope RDJ gets his wish of doing SH3 with Depp.
Forbidden World (1982)
Early 80's B Sc-Fi film. It's well done for the budget, just tune out and watch. Fun without being apologetic for what it is and that I like

Produced by Roger Corman… the man who made B-movies come close to A-movies.
Absolutely
I like a lot of his films as they are just fun to watch with no agenda other than being entertaining...Q-6
Death Race 2000 - The original. Classic "B-Movie" at it finest. Good stuff.
It is if you are into the family comedy genre. It’s great social commentary on cultural conventions and the producers did a great job of adapting the story to modern times.
Now streaming on Disney+. I’ll have to watch this (DrStrange MoM) again, while I thought it was good, maybe excellent, and not too hard to follow, they equated parallel universe jumping to magic (as it should be), but the question is can I watch this story multiple times? 🤔
Someone said it was dark, I did not find it overly so as a general description, although there were dark elements as part of the story, but they did not bother me. And I do like how this is a direct tie in with the Wandavision and the Scarlet Witches inability to deal with loss.

Besides the merit of the story, this movie used blatant false/misleading advertising to attract audiences to a love story.
That was one of the only things I did like, however, I would have rather seen a Wanda movie since this really dealt with her continued struggle of depression and grief versus Strange. I really like Strange... but this movie missed the mark on so many levels for me.
Agreed. The movie had a great potential to perhaps introduce several plot lines that make it confusing but that self resolve. Instead one continuous plot that just follows thru 4 universes.
I mean, I enjoyed it. But still, wasted potential to see at least 20 universes duking it out in order to make honor to its name. But dang, just 4?
Yes, I am also excited to see what Thor-Jane brings in.
I enjoyed most of it... Is it "strange" that I want a show on Benedict's Wong character! I mean a short little five or six episodes on him during the five years of the event. I really like him and I really like his character!
Yeah I have had the same impression.
Can it be a "homo homini lupus" reference according to you?
That is what I like about him. The dude, doesn't even have to say anything and his facial expressions are enough to crack me up!
Considering I love Sam Raimi, the Benedicts as Strange and Wong and was thrilled to a certain silent but deadly Inhuman come back, I thought this was very disappointing beyond the opening sequences and the appearance of silent but deadly inhuman.
Then again, I cannot stand Wanda/Scarlet Witch. I never liked her in the comics and the same in live action, it intensified.
That said, I would like to see more of Strange, the new arrival at the end and the silent but deadly Inhuman. And if Raimi wanted to direct something else at Marvel, sure, but I think I'd rather see Scott Derrickson back on Strange going forward.
