In this episode on Doctor Strange:
Kris & Amy get ready for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness with a two-part series on Mister Doctor’s 2016 origin story. They needed two episodes because this might just be Marvel’s deepest, meatiest movie to date. The Madames praise the casting & performances while applauding the film’s representation of women. They discuss the major themes of the movie, from the metaphysical to the psychological. And as one would expect, Kris & Amy get a little timey wimey wibbly wobbly.
Doctor Strange is the 14th film of the Infinity Saga and the second film of Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Tilda Swinton, Rachel McAdams, Mads Mikkelsen, & Benedict Wong.
