We watch the 2016 movie, Doctor Strange. Moreover, we comment on the film in real time. Ergo, we present our Doctor Strange commentary. Mostly, Brandi talks about actors. Meanwhile, Dave talks about martial arts. We address the issues of whitewashing and the hypocrisy of villains.
We open with some banter. Mostly, we argue over the length of comedy bits. Also, we complain about allergies. Dave announces his leaving the Loft. However, could this mean a move to a weekly format? Furthermore, we hint that we may have more guests on the show. On top of that, we hope to include an improvised scene in the occasional episode..
We make several reference to Dungeons and Dragons throughout. Largely, we focus on the use of magic and magical artifacts as presented in the Marvel film. Meanwhile, Dave continues to plug other podcasts. Furthermore, Brandi mentions a number of shows she has guested on for Trek.fm.
Brandi obsesses over the four issue run of the Doctor Strange comic, Damnation. Meanwhile, Dave binges on the Good Christian Fun podcast. This podcast looks at pop culture created by Christians for Christians. The show is lovingly irreverent.
In the commentary, we address Marvel Studios’ problems with creating an interesting villain. Furthermore, we honor the fight sequences. Meanwhile, we follow the arc of the hero as he learns to put others before his own self-interest. Also, Brandi points out a few differences between the comic book version and the filmic version of the character.
To end the show, Canis Lupus performs Black Magic Dance. Canis Lupus is a traditional gothic rock band from Sweden. Canis Lupus combines gothic guitars with moody synthesizers for a hybrid sound.
