'Doctor Strange' Is Just 'Iron Man on Weed' in Withering Honest Trailer
Marvel's "Doctor Strange" just came out on Blu-ray/DVD this week, and Screen Junkies honored it with a painfully hilarious Honest Trailer.
In part, the trailer argues that "Doctor Strange" is just "Iron Man on weed," pointing out the many similarities between Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark and Benedict Cumberbatch's Stephen Strange. Both "Iron Man" and "Doctor Strange" show "the heroic origins of a cocky but capable, super rich, wisecracking workaholic with a weird goatee, in love with a red-headed subordinate, learning to be less selfish, played by a famous Sherlock Holmes actor." Too true.
The trailer also dismisses the action as "90 percent" punching, and mocks Cumberbatch's accent as "an English man pretending to be a German man pretending to be an American in a feature-length tribute to ... Hans Gruber's accent in 'Die Hard' when he gets caught by Bruce Willis?" Well, if so, it's about time Hans Gruber got his own movie tribute.
And here are more details on the disc/On Demand release of "Doctor Strange."
