Was completely wasted in Doctor Strange.


There wouldn't be much of a problem if they (Marvel) had hired some C-list TV actor to play the role of this Kaecilus guy. But Mads Mikkelsen deserves way better than that. They should've made him Dormammu and save him for future movies.

Does he get much screen time? I'll only be watching it for his performance after seeing so many negative reviews.

reply

Where are you getting the consensus for the negative reviews from? It's been positively received. It's not perfect, but it's a solid movie.

reply

If you were expecting that bankrupt approach of making Kaecilius the star of the show with Strange as a background character.

reply

Filler words... once again. Can you change something about that? I hear this "you were expecting bankrupt approach when the villain is the star of the show" nonsense for half of year. And thus far, I don't really see the point in this mumbling. Also, your imbecilic argument doesn't fit the context of my complaint. I said that Mikkelsen was wasted as an actor. I did not say anything about the character which he played (although, the character was awful, just like any terrible MCU villain).

reply

So in other words, you'd have been unsatisfied unless the villain was the star of the show because there's no other way the actor can spread their wings.

And you still can't stand the notion of the villain not being the main character with the hero being a secondary.

Stop twisting words and stop sounding like a retarded ignorant

Get over yourself. The era where the villain is the star of the show and the heroes do nothing but react to them is finally being challenged. And CBMs are better off for it.

Civil War disagrees with you. The entire premise of that movie revolves around manipulations of one villain who turns heroes against each other because they're too stupid to see the elephant in the room.
