Straight into it... I'm not too familiar with Dr. Strange.

Never have been other than his appearances in crossover events and such, which was bound given his lack of solo title(s) for some time now. But I've always felt with his supporting roles that Marvel has almost been - and I don't mean to offend the character or any fans, but I've always felt Marvel likes to throw him at us/shove him in our faces, I don't know, too much?

Not the words I'm looking for but couldn't think lol.

Again I don't know, but whenever I see him there's this feeling I get that Marvel unconventionally pushes him to the front of the line sometimes for no reason.

From what I understand he is a great character, yes - even considered among Marvel's best, and like I said I'm not familiar with the character so maybe I just don't understand. But it is a feeling I get whenever I see him in an event or on a poster. Thoughts?

@saintwildcard: haha, never used/heard that in this particular context, but I'll except it.

In BvS and future Justice League films? I know, as I said, it's a nitpick. But personally I know I'll be bothered when I see Batman, especially not as the leader, standing taller. Heck I believe even Jason Momoa towers over Henry Cavill and maybe Ben Affleck too. Ray Fisher is a tad taller than Henry or just as.

Same nitpick with Marvel films too unfortunately. For Cap I'm used to seeing say Thor or Hulk towering over him, but I hate seeing Iron Man (the armor not Tony/RDJ) do so. Looks odd, especially as the leader/one of the Big Two. They've always or mostly been drawn roughly the same height.

Anyone else the same? Just me (probably, maybe)?

Civil War's established cast gives it an edge, but that's not saying I'm not going to give the BvS crew a chance. Just more invested in CW's.

Won't lie though, not a fan of Eisenberg as Lex and Gal isn't as great an actress as people keep telling me to wait and see for (I will wait and see, but people keep telling me it's comparable to RDJ and Ledger - it's not. They had much more impressive work beforehand).

Right now I'd say Civil War. Very excited for BvS, but I really love Evans' Cap and his journey so far, so I'm more eager to see how that continues or ends rather than an introduction/new story.

^One of the trademark DC fan responses.

Among my favorites is "Marvel is for children. DC is for grown ups like me!"

Or Marvel fans articulate sentences "mos sucked and also because yeah and also..."

I like Jesus but he's been so "Daryl" for awhile. It's like we know he's a badass. He didnt have to take out all those Whisperers to prove it or anything else. We. Get. It.

I've always found even the littlest mentions of Captain America or The Avengers by Cyclops very interesting. How do the X-Men view the rest of the superhero community? How do they get along, especially Cyke/Xavier with other leaders? Do they get along with some of the big heroes?

MoS had many flaws. It's OK to like the film, hell I enjoy it, but people shutting down others for pointing out potential flaws are clouded by the fact that the film has been described as 'dark' since it first became an idea. Dark, unfortunately, = superior/one above all. MoS was a pure example that that is not the case.

Same goes for those same people hating on Avengers. Fun/not dark = crap.
