[00:02] dropped, my first reaction was that Doctor Doom needs more setup, but a lot Darth Vader didn't need any setup, neither did Hannibal Lecter." The point needs to be in a great story. And remember, Thanos had a pretty lame
[00:18] setup. He sat on his ass for two movies and then begrudgingly accepted responsibility for his own damn quest. But, I just don't think that Doctor Doom feels like a natural conclusion to the multiverse saga. In the Infinity saga,

[00:43] a few years ago. Now, had they not set up Kang, I think that Doom would have seemed like a natural next step in this saga. And look, he may be a great villain in this movie, but it's hard to see how he'll feel like a natural
[00:56] conclusion to end a story arc they spent so much time setting up Kang. Doom is my favorite Marvel character and I think he deserves a slow burn to establish him as deserves a slow burn to establish him as this universe's ultimate big bad.
