Doctor Strange: 25 WTF Moments
5. Strange Dies... A Lot
The scene in which Doctor Strange and Dormammu face off is excellent (the design of Dormammu is not), and it's precisely because of the impact of seeing Doctor Strange dupe the demon with his time loop is sold so perfectly.
It's not only sold when Dormammu expectedly kills Strange the first time, but then by a genius short sequence that sees Strange killed off multiple times in a Groundhog Day style multi-slay scene. It's as brilliant and entertaining as it is weird, seeing the main character killed off in increasingly gruesome ways to sell a point.
