Normal-rear end plane tickets are hundreds or thousands a seat; what would you pay to avoid flying Delta? Strange and Wong just have to get into Ayahuasca ceremonies for crypto bros. Knock out their astral form for a few minutes, charge $100k for the experience. Set up a camp at Burning Man and they could be rolling in Ether for anything they needed the rest of the year.

I was just thinking he could start a construction vehicle company and rent himself out as a bulldozer, dumptruck, excavator etc. "Sorry bob, you want me to help you knock down that condo i'm gonna have to charge you for the wrecking ball fee" Make good money AND improve local infrastructure!

Gangringo posted:Dr. Strange 3D trip report: Didn't blow me away aside from one or two scenes. It didn't ruin the movie either, it was plenty bright and well mastered. There's a lot less reality bending fractal world stuff than the first movie. Thanks for the update. I'll probably just go for a normal, 2D screening Monday, when it's a bit quieter. The regular screens in a non-3D option cinema have recliner seats, and they're plush enough to be the better option if the 3D ain't a major selling point on it's own.

Goffer posted:Weird question, did Mark actually need Konshu to come back to life? It seemed like he basically did it himself. The Konshu powers did get the bullets out, sure, but all the getting out of the reeds and sands and getting through the gates of the afterlife was all Marc. I actually took it to be Osiris that brought Mark back to life: Osiris’s avatar seemed to expend some last bit of effort before he died and Tawaret says something like “Thank you, Osiris” when she punches the boat through the sand wave to clear the way for Mark. It makes more sense from an Egyptian mythology perspective as well.

She shouts "Osiris, you old softy" if I recall. I wasn't really clear on what Osiris actually did there though. Tarewet was the one with responsibility for the boat, so it was there by her will entirely and not his, presumably. Was it just that he opened the gates at all? Also, this is the first I'm realizing that the guy who died in Layla's arms was Osiris' avatar. There was presumably something in the episodes to say/show it, but if there was, it slipped my radar; either because I didn't notice, or I just immediately forgot.

Lammasu posted:What does Dr. Strange do for money? In the first movie they explicitly state that he's broke but he seems to be doing pretty well for himself now. I bet he does a lot of consulting. People probably dig up magical artifacts all the time and they hire him to go "yea don't get blood on that, it will summon a bunch of demons" Plus he still has his medical knowlage, he can come into Medical Schools and give lectures about brain surgery or whatever. In his Dr Strange outfit.

Even if he's not slingringing a few trucks of coke across oceans with a circle of his hands, there's still plenty of legal ways instant transportation would could make someone megarich.

This is my understanding as well. By his actions in the show, this Osiris seems to be kind of a dick, at least to Khonshu, but when the chips are down he's on the right side. Note that he also told Layla how to free Khonshu and save Marc, and then how to re-bind Ammit.

Being a dick to Khonshu seems like a totally reasonable thing to do, hard to fault Osiris for that after watching the show in full.

Dr Strange movie was good. It once again wasn't what youtuber hypefolks said it would be, which is my fault for watching that poo poo. Sam raimi is good. I like how much color Wanda's face has in all the close-ups, not washed out in a purple filter like in all the Avengers films, and I think that's probably a Raimi choice. This is a dr strange spoiler: Hiagin thereagarr lmfao

Interesting bit of trivia I've been reading from interviews with the cast: Scarlet Scarab was planned to be the avatar of Isis, and her suit was designed with that in mind. They changed her patron to Tawaret fairly late, after the costume was already made, when everyone involved decided that they liked Tawaret and wanted to keep her around, while also needing to avoid introduce yet another character so late in the show. Layla's actress joked that Tawaret might have a cool new idea for her costume if the character returns.

Maybe it was just the reference but Doctor Strange reminded me of the old X-Men cartoon in how it was some brand new character running to the hero for help with a humongous problem. That and Raimi's finger prints being all over made it feel unique. live with fruit fucked around with this message at 07:55 on May 7, 2022 |

I pointed out MK's lacks any bird motif but more fool I! I would absolutely watch a Layla show, 90% for Taweret.

live with fruit posted:I wish they had included a scene with Steven and his newfound confidence telling his boss off a la the end of Last Action Hero. I would watch six season 2 episodes that's just six episodes straight of Marc openly making GBS threads on all of the museum co-workers to like House levels of obnoxiousness and then seamlessly switching to Steven being the absolute most god-tier customer service/tour guide person on earth whenever other people are around. All of the action is just them waking up in the morning and seeing on the news whatever crazy poo poo they got up to as Jake.

Just after Layla accepts the avatar position Taweret says something like "I have such a great idea for a costume!  " and I can totally see her as having mentally workshopped this super dope costume for any future avatar, maybe sketched it out sometimes when she was bored waiting for souls, and sure it isn't like, hippo themed, and maybe it doesn't need to have wings and swords, but she likes them and darn it her avatar looks cool.

Moon Knight isn't skull bird themed, it didn't seem like a big problem even if her current costume is very Isis inspired. I really liked seeing Konshu wearing Steven's suit in the end credits scene. As much as he relentlessly complains about Stephen he'll steal his outfit without a second thought.

Not going to go into spoilers here, but Multiverse of Madness definitely rewards the people who watched things like Wandavision and 'What If'. I think this is the first movie that has really used the events of an MCU TV show (one or more) in a big way
