Re: What are some story lines or arcs that you think ended too quickly?

I think the Doctor Strange movie is supposed to have taken place earlier in the MCU chronology than when it came out (relative to the other movies) and that the movie also covers a decent time span, both for his initial physical recovery and search for a treatment, and then for his time at Magic School. So, the Strange of Infinity War is a much more experienced wizard than the one at the end of his solo movie because time has passed.

I dunno about looking for Mordo. Let's just say he and Wong were doing that when they decided to take a sandwich break and then Bruce dropped in.

Early on there’s a shot of an award in Strange’s cabinet with the date “2016”, which means that the film at best takes place over the course of a year (assuming the film starts at the beginning of January 2016). So Strange is able to recover from basically having his hands destroyed to the point where he has basic motor functions (not to the point of being able to do surgery but at least to the point where he can grasp and hold objects) THEN become skilled enough in magic that he can successfully use a fucking Infinity Stone against an all powerful magical being in its very own home dimension...in the span of less than a year.

And yeah he may have more training by the time Ragnarok and Infinity War but again, at best he’s still only got about two years of training. But somehow he’s able to survive one on one combat against Thanos (who at this point in the movie has 4 of the 6 Infinity gems).

I guess it just pisses me off because the parts where Stephen was training and learning magic were my favorite parts of Dr Strange and the movies just kind of blew through this great opportunity for worldbuilding and character development so they could get uber magic Stephen with flashy powers that look good in fight scenes.
