I heard about the civil war from a fanfic before.  

[Rednal]

Mm-hmm. o wo

I just want more Doctor Strange. The Sorcerer Supreme has always been a pretty fun character. And powerful as @#$%.  

[Great Ryoman!]

Yeah, the three all kind of tie in together, which makes them great for the movies.

Phase 1, The Avengers is self explanatory.

in Phase 2, Thannos shows up to eliminate the Avengers. When he loses, having never lost to ANYONE in the galaxy, it makes Earth famous. So the Kree, a race Thannos nearly destroyed, decide to conquer us to strengthen their empire. Then it's revealed the Skrull, the empire who owns the OTHER half of the universe (and are shape shifters), have been infiltrating humanity since the Avengers appeared. They decide to step up their plan, and the Skrull Invasion arc/battle happens.

In the wake of it, the world wants one, UNIFIED Super Hero front to combat anymore alien invasions. Plus, there's paranoia after the Skrull invasion, since they're bodysnatchers, so the government feels everyone should be controlled.

Then Nitro, a previously unimportant villain, gets his moment in the spotlight when he blows up a school and surrounding town. (He kind of got famous after that, and a MAJOR villain upgrade)

As a result, the U.S. passes an anti-vigilante law. You either sign up, or you stop hero-ing. However, for a lot of heroes (like the Hulk, who's being chased by the rogue general whats-his-name), joining the government's just not possible.

Tony Stark, who outs himself as Iron Man from day 1 of his super hero career, argues that all super heroes should be honest about. Captain America, despite being known without his mask and despite being a national symbol, argues that people should get to keep their masks and not be government agents; since governments would expect them to fight in wars, and what not.

So Tony Stark brands Captain America a traitor to the U.S.A., and every super hero in the world was involved. Ultimately, Tony Stark kinda gets Captain America killed, and then everyone has an 'Oh God, what have we done?' moment.

On that note, during the Civil War Doctor Strange offers asylum to anyone on Captain America's "Don't join the government" side. >_> No one ever manages to break in to his sanctuary or defeat him.

Good ol' Doctor Strange. =D

Few people stay dead in comic books. rofl

But yeah. o.O Doctor Strange, when he wants to be, is VERY awesome. I just home the cinematic universe can do it justice. rofl Considering their budgets, they probably can.

*Bad memories of lame magic in Harry Potter*  

[Great Ryoman!]

If you have Netflix, or know someone who does, watch the animated movie for Dr. Strange. It's really good, actually.

If they did something like that, but as a real movie, it'd be awesome.  

[Rednal]

Well, it'd probably have to tie into the others... XD

I can probably find the movie somewhere, at least. o wo b  

[Great Ryoman!]

o wo b

It's an origin story, as 90% of comic book movies are. But it's a good origin story.  

[Rednal]

Yeaaaaah... too many origin stories. OTL

Honestly, I'd sort of prefer a movie that was more about showing who Doctor Strange was, just with references to how he got that way. You can do that sort of thing when you're sufficiently awesome. ^^  

[Great Ryoman!]

Yeah.

And if I didn't clarify earlier, I mean, they are totally, 100% making a Dr. Strange movie right now. We're not sure if it'll be before the Avengers 2 or not, buuuut I'm going to guess so.


How he plays into it, I can't really be sure. I mean, his storylines don't cross with others too often. Although he has had a run-in with Asgardians once or twice.  

[Rednal]

Oh, I'm sure they'll find something for him to do. o wo Probably last minute cavalry, considering how powerful he is normally...

"Doctor Strange... Master of the Mystic and Martial Arts."

They better not forget that, either. ^^ Probably won't.

Rednal

Do you still play Ryofu? o wo  

[Rednal]

When I think she'd be good for a scene, yes. o wo b  

[stickdude]

Ah, I see.
I haven't seen her for quite some time.  

[Rednal]

Well, I've mostly been posting at Rednal's house and the C Project, so... ^^
