'''''Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness''''' is a 2022 American superhero film with fantasy and horror elements based on the [[Marvel Comics]] character [[Doctor Strange]]. It is the sequel to ''[[Doctor Strange (2016 film)|Doctor Strange]]'' and the 28th film in the [[Marvel Cinematic Universe]]. It is directed by [[Sam Raimi]], with [[Benedict Cumberbatch]] reprising the eponymous role.

 

 

An unknown time after ''[[Spider-Man: No Way Home]]'', Strange and Wong (Benedict Wong) rescue America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez), a girl with the ability to travel through the multiverse, from a demon that wants her power. An odd detail on the demon leads to Strange seeking the aid of Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen). What he learns leads to him travelling the multiverse hoping to thwart a grave threat.

* [[All Your Base Are Belong to Us]]: Happens twice, both by {{spoiler|Maximoff. First to Kamar-Taj, and then to the Illuminati base.}}

* [[Anyone Can Die]]: A lot of named characters die.

* [[Be Careful What You Wish For]]: {{spoiler|Maximoff is defeated when Chavez gives her exactly what she wants by creating a portal to Earth-838 and letting her meet that universe's version of her boys while still in her own physical body. They are scared of her and want their real mother, the 838 version of her, instead. This causes her to have a [[Heel Realization]].}}

* [[Brick Joke]]: Early on, Wong reminds Strange that there's a proper protocol to greet the Sorcerer Supreme, which Strange is initially dismissive of. It's not till the end that Strange bothers to use it.

** {{spoiler|Xavier gets into Maximoff's head while she's dream-walking in the 838 her's body and attempts to get the 838 her back in control. Then the 616 her tracks him down in the mindscape and kills him.}}

** {{spoiler|Chavez, Strange and 838 Palmer manage to reach the Book of Vishanti through the waypoint 838 Strange left. Then Maximoff catches up and destroys it.}}

* [[Impaled with Extreme Prejudice]]: {{spoiler|Both Defender and Darkhold-corrupted Strange are killed by impalement, Defender by a demon chasing him and Chavez and Darkhold-corrupted after 616 Strange blasts him out a window onto a fence.}}
