Doctor Strange - Teaser Trailer - with Commentary
Posted by Labels: Doctor Strange (Film), MCU, Review, TrailerA Few Thoughts on the Trailer
As Marvel digs a little deeper into their collection of Intellectual Properties as they studio they need to spend more time introducing the characters to the wider audience. The general public has a notion who Ironman is, who Captain America is, who Thor is, but the deeper characters in their Universe is a different story. The same held true for Guardians of the Galaxy. This first trailer is all about introducing us to the main character, Doctor Steven Strange, his accident, and search for meaning after it.The trailer also gives us a glimpse Tilda Swinton as the Ancient One without providing to much detail.
Doctor Strange is not a character I actively follow in the Marvel Comic Book universe, I know who he is and his place in the Universe but I am not much of follower. I know that several of my friends would have loved to see more detail in the trailer, more of the information on the story; however I am quick to point out where the world has come to. When Doctor Strange is released in November it has the potential to out earn in the box office Batman v. Superman, the first time the two biggest heroes on the planet are in film together, who would have thunk that ten years ago, five years ago, heck even a month ago? Five years ago this film probably would not have been made.
