Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness

β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜†β˜†

The second Dr. Strange movie was not as bad as I’d expected from what I’d heard. Exploring alternate realities, the temptations of power, roads not taken, and so on. Some fun twists, like the zombie doctor, and seeing the greatest heroes of an alternate world.

But the alternate realities weren’t as fun to watch as the reality-bending in the first movie, and there was waaaay too much reliance on characters running with the Idiot Ball (starting with Scarlet Witch, though they at least gave her a reason for her tunnel vision), and way too many characters who showed up with potential only to be tossed aside as cannon fodder.

Still, I kind of want to watch Army of Darkness again. Bruce Campbell vs. his hand, the book of evil, all that.
