With every MCU project we've come to expect more of the same. More of the same interconnected universe mandates, more bathos, more fan service, etc. more of the same Marvel formula. It works! It's why the MCU has been as largely successful as it has. However, there comes a point when audiences want more, crave more, crave to feel the touch of an artist behind the camera with a specific story to tell that only THEY are capable of telling. There's been glimmers of hope post Avengers Endgame with projects like Moon Knight, but largely, Phase 4 of the MCU has felt like Kevin Feige and the MCU resting on their laurels than actually trying to make creatively inspired art. However that all changed with the announcement of Sam Raimi taking the directing reigns on Doctor Strange 2 or Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Sam Raimi, the guy who ushered in the modern era of superhero cinema with his heartfelt and spectacular Spider-Man movies. The guy who inspired an entire generation of horror filmmakers with his signature brand of mean spirited horror-comedy, camp, energy, and full-blown madness. THAT Sam Raimi, was tasked with bringing to life another Doctor Strange movie. While the idea of multiversal insanity, cameos, and chaos was enough to make fans worried, if anyone was going to pull it off and restore faith in the MCU, it was Sam Raimi. Not to mention, Doctor Strange has been a favorite superhero of Raimi's since he was a kid! Having an auteur in the drivers seat is exciting and for the most part Doctor Strange in the Mutliverse of Madness is the most creatively exciting the MCU has pulled off...from a visual standpoint. You see, while Raimi was allowed to test the limits of PG-13 horror, and add his visual flares, flourishes, camp, and meanspiritedness to the overall aesthetic, his lack of presence during the writing process couldn't be more felt. While Doctor Strange 2 doesn't have the worst script in an MCU movie, the standard mediocrity and tired Marvel forumal are exposed for how week they truly can be as there's a major disconnect between Sam Raimi and the Feige machine. That's what we're going to explore. How Sam Raimi EXPOSED the Big Problem with the MCU and how the MCU formula held Multiverse of Madness from being TRULY great. Griffin (@griffschiller) gives you his Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness review and explains why Doctor Strange 2 is ALMOST Great and what the mcu can learn from Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
