tigertooth Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 When I first thought about Strange, I just hoped it wouldn't be Keanu. I've never seen him in any role that he didn't come off like a dullard. Something about his voice, I think. I was hoping for a Phoenix, Depp, or Day-Lewis, but always figured Cumberbatch was the most likely choice. I can totally see scraylo's point, but who knows? Maybe he'll bring a different touch to it. In any case, surely he won't be any worse than "good", and maybe better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I do hope that the bring out something in him we've not seen before. He seems to be coating in a lot of his movies, which seems weird. I've never really been a Dr. Strange fan, but enjoyed Dr. Mordred, which was originally a Dr. Strange script, so I'll pencil it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Perfect casting, but it also feels like really safe, dull casting. He'll be great but I feel like I can already picture everything he does. Totally agree. He'll be great, but I'd be 1000% more interest in what Phoenix's crazy ass would do with the role. Also, Cumberbatch is a zillion times better actor than Keanu...but I think I'd rather see Keanu Strange. Bendict Cumberbatch is not the person you could be concerned about on this project. It is the director, Scott Derrickson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derrickson isn't the best in the world, but his visuals are ok...Emily Rose LOOKED pretty cool, even if it wasn't always very scary. Maybe 'action horror' is going to be this guy's calling?

Sinister was also very creepy and atmospheric even though it wasn't very scary. I suppose the producers hope he will weave his tension into Dormammu or some other magical horror.

Brian Fowler Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Honestly, my first though was "What, is James Wan busy?" when they hired Derrickson. Then I remember that, yes, he actually is busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wan and Whannell only good when they don't have producers and studios bugging them and forcing them to make deliberate content. When they were allowed to come up with the concept of Saw on their own, it fucking ruled. When they were jobbed out to make Saw movies on purpose, they sucked. I know a James Wan directed Dr. Strange movie would blow goats because someone would be telling him to make one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent concepts that fell flat on delivery which is what studios should fear when picking up this guy up to direct Dr. Strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiller Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 So will Civil War just be contained in the one Captain America movie? Or is this probably something that will last until Infinity War starts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 It's not Serpent Society. It's Captain America: Civil War. Serpent Society was a fake title. Captain America 3 looks to be the only Civil War movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
