The Fighting Fundamental Forums

I saw Dr Strange Monday. 

I liked it but it didn't "hit out of the park" for me. 

What did you think?

I really liked it. I didn't like it enough to see it again in the theaters, like some movies. I saw Deadpool at least 3 times in the theater and 3 times at home. I saw Avengers 3 times in the theater and twice at home, and Guardians of the Galaxy twice in the theater and 3 more times at home. I missed Iron Man at the theater, but watched it about 4 times at home. As you can guess, I read Marvel comics all through my childhood. I was lucky. My uncle worked at a novelty/magazine shop and used to give me boxes of unsold comics. I had Fantastic Four 1 through 12. If I had kept them, they'd be worth a fortune.

I loved Stan Lee and his humor in the comics. I'm amazed he's still around.

Anyway, it didn't hit it out of the park for me, either, but it was really well done. And the choice of actors was excellent.

Oh, one more thing -- I don't recall anything about the Infinity Stones in the comics. Maybe they were introduced after I stopped reading comics, or maybe I just don't recall.

But it was kind of cool that they tied an Infinity stone into Doctor Strange. All the movies in the MCU are becoming centered on the Infinity Stones, and that glue is likely to bring together all the characters in a climactic movie.

i could be wrong.... but somehow i just don;t believe that the skinny girl in this video
could actually wield an authentic example of the sword she is shown carrying around.... much less
throw it like she does in the video if that sword was a real one made of iron, steel and brass.....  

i;m thinking it must be one of those hollywood swords made of aluminum with a plastic handle.....  




we have 2 authentic scottish claymores hanging on the wall beneath a bronze rampant lion and draped with a tartain shawl.... ... those swords 
are very heavy.... in fact certain persons.... who will remain un-named....  ....have taken them down before and then were unable to get them 
back up on the wall again..... ....... .but still.... it;s a good video...... i like it..... i just don;t believe it...... ..... 

if you are a fan of both game of thrones and star wars..... how could
 you not love an epic game of thrones sword fight with light sabres?....  ...

gotta love the new cg technology.... 

kevin hicks... the warwick castle bowman.... teaching some accurate and very
 interesting history you will never see presented by hollywood..... 

because... with the threat of a new cold war heating up.... it pays to be prepared....  





no doubt a few people thought it was silly when i posted this video from the 1950s a while back...... ... but with the north korean problem and with the part of the u.s.
 i happen to live to be within range... not many people consider it silly now.... .. in fact..... people are now making new videos adressing the same subject with regards
to preparing in case of nuclear war..... .... still it;s hard to beat the classiness and overall ability to teach basic skills that the old makers of these kinds of videos had.....
. .....so...... this one is being bumped for information and educational purposes.....
