azrael Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 I have heard that Benedict Cumberbatch is the #1 choice, but that is still in negotiations. But if true, he needs to do Sherlock series 4 first, dammit. Quote
Mr March Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Hahaha, leave it to Marvel to make an annoucement that just decimates WB/DC for both details and excitement level Yeah, looks like Cumberbatch is a lock. A fine choice, IMO. Quote
Mommar Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Not that I was ever a big fan of Dr Strange but I really do not have the same sort of internet hots for Cumberbatch most other people do. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 Not that I was ever a big fan of Dr Strange but I really do not have the same sort of internet hots for Cumberbatch most other people do. Mmmmmm...he's dreamy Ha ha! He's a decent enough actor and I can see him in the role. Better than Captain Sparrow, but maybe not as good as Commodus. -b. Quote
Mr March Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 I have faith. The Marvel movies seem to have casting licked. They got it down. I'm far more worried whether the film will be good than the casting. I hope this movie works, because I think the magic side of the Marvel universe can be enjoyably awkward, bizarre, and surreal.

Hoping the same, I used to be a huge Dr. Strange comic fan from the late 80's early 90's run. I think Khan will be fine but I was more intrigued by Joaquin Phoenix getting the role. -b. Quote
Mr March Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 I know how ya feel. Sometimes these castings are also depressing because we are forced to imagine what could have been. But look at it this way; it's great that we have an abundance of our favorite actors to fill the roles of all these characters. It's better than the reverse like it was in decades past, where no actor of any worth wanted to play a fantasy, sci-fi or comic book character. Quote

Twoducks Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 Really looking forwards to this one. After making Cap 2 a step above comic hero movies by touching the spy thriller genre and Gardians adventure, this with a touch of horror could be awesome. Quote
Mr March Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 Kevin Feige and company have spoken a few times about the offbeat nature of what they'd like to do with the Doctor Strange movie. They've often invoked descriptions of the supernatural, a pseudo-horror film theme and even mentioned a Kubrick-style representation of the surreal. I'm hoping that amounts to more than dark sets and a few dutch angles, but Marvel has proven track record that they like the challenges of doing things differently. So I'm very encouraged by what I hear thus far. Quote
azrael Posted December 4, 2014 Author Posted December 4, 2014 Looks like the finally agreed to a payment plan. BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH TO PLAY DOCTOR STRANGE (Marvel.com) One wonders how much he's getting for this role. And dammit, it better not get in the way of Sherlock. Quote
aerocombatpilot Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 OH, THAT'S JUST FRIGGIN PERFECT! NOW HOW LONG DO WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR SEASON 4 OF SHERLOCK? Not that I mind Benedict getting PAID that Marvel money but, Please DO SHERLOCK FIRST!!!!! Quote
azrael Posted December 5, 2014 Author Posted December 5, 2014 Series 4 of Sherlock is filming now. This will likely delay Series 5 which Moffet and Gatiss have plotted out to already. Quote

Big s Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Can't wait to see this. Even the bad Disney Marvel movies are good especially when compared to super hero films a decade or more older. Quote

Kelsain Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 Without the effects, they look really silly... Quote
Golden Arms Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 Haha, Reminds me of being in first grade and playing with friends during recess! Quote
EXO Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Without the effects, they look really silly... haha... yeah. Kinda like RDJ in the iron man "suit" when filming. He looks good as Doctor Strange though. Quote
mickyg Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 Wow - not gonna lie, I've just gone from "meh" to "I've gotta see this" with that trailer. I know nothing of Dr Strange as a character but that's a pretty cool way to introduce him. Quote
