I love how this was presented. Dr. Strange saying he has come to bargain at first sounds more like he's come to plead. But with each loop he becomes more confident until you hear it in his voice the bargain will be on his terms.
This is still my favorite Marvel film because of the writing, pacing, performances, digital wizardry (which WASN'T simply flashy just for the sake of flashiness), costuming, props, the sound, and the music. Really fantastic.
Bro is a God, come to end the Earth and literally can’t be stopped unless he chooses, but got beaten by something even more invisible than the wind, a basic measurement to say…
Most of marvel movies are bad, but i like dr strange first movie except this scene is bullshit since rhomamu can just torment dr. until he gives up instead of just killing him. But then audience had to think a bit first. The same strategy used chainsaw man against infinity demon but he won by tormenting the demon until he gives up, enemy could do it also but then it would make sense and it cant since its MARVEL.
@alexandersebela370 I'm pretty sure it worked because the concept of time, especially looping time, being forced on Dormmamu was alien to him. It's like us trying to observe Cthulu, his mind was struggling to handle it. And it was made pretty clear that he TRIED to torment him into submission but Strange became more and more galvanized as time went on. He made it clear he would suffer for eternity to stop his invasion and that there was no chance of making him submit. Much like in in Chainsaw Man, the villain came across someone who could outlast him for eternity. In this case, however, it was the one enforcing an eternity.
It's unclear how long this lasted, but I like to think this actually explains his apparent power upgrade between this movie and his later appearances. He was practicing his magic defending himself from Dormamu, and for all we know he was at it for perhaps years, maybe centuries.
like the movie "Groundhog Day" where the MC goes through the same day over and over and learning everything, we dont know how long it took but he managed to be perfect at everything he could
3:41 I think the reason dormammu kept his end of the bargain and never came back is because he was probably terrified strange would trap him in the loop again, forever
@Slowpoke3x 😂 The pinky swear killed me but yea, God's and Demons words basically become contracts. By agreeing never too show up again he forced a contract , he probably will have too wait for strange too die before it become null and void.
This is probably the best ending to an MCU movie because it doesn’t end with such a huge fight scene or one big bang, Dr. Strange is literally just here outsmarting the villain. You don’t see that often in these movies.

I like to believe that if Dormamu did not accept the bargain, Strange would have constantly trained from these until he could best him. As we have seen from What If, he’s capable of building up power when he needs it.
Honestly, this has to be the explanation, how he'll get rid of Dormammu in the future, actually being trained through that and all. That is, if Dormammu actually intends to fight Strange again.
@@d4rksonic474 except that if Strange were to fight him again then he'd have to do it without the time stone, granted we know that he's a lot more powerful now than he was back in his 1st movie but even he still struggles when fighting against others with magical abilities and he still can be outplayed/outsmarted like in No Way Home.
@@d4rksonic474 I doubt that's gonna happen, I think the fact that he had his hands up making signs when he posed his demands means he cast a spell of some sort, possibly using the time stone, to make sure he has a fallback measure if dormamu breaks the deal.

That was Strange's groundhog day. I wonder how many variations of the Dormammu confrontation he has actually relived before the dark lord has had enough
Strange never planned on beating Dormamu. At this point Strange is a decent sorcerer at best while Dormamu is a literal god. No matter how many time loops he goes through there’s a hard cap on how powerful he can get without more information and training about the intricacies of magic. The reason he’s so confident that Dormamu will concede is that he understands having an ego so big you think you’re a god. Up until the Sorcerer Supreme gave him the “This isn’t about you” speech on her death bed he was as conceited and egotistical as this literal god. So he knows the way to beat Dormamu is the exact same way he was broken: take control away from them. The simple act of telling Dormamu he’s holding them prisoner tells them they lack all control. Dormamu gives up after this because they can’t accept not having control
Me and the guy I saw it with in the theatre laughed our heads off at the "what's happening?!" the second time it looped. Thankfully we both laugh silently.
No way that didn't happen knowing Strange personality, bet there is even a time when Dormammu switch place with Strange and say "Strange, I've come to bargain" then Strange "no, you come to di- wait, that's my line"
This is why I love Dr.Strange cause when it comes down to it he’s a hero that saved the day by annoying an otherworldly entity into submission and that gains my respect
Why was he sure Dormamu will keep hist world? what if as soon as Dr Strange breaks the loop Dormamu kills him and attacks the universe? Is there something in Dormamu's universe that prevents him from lying?
@@jaimeduncan6167 It's a deal with the devil type situation, a breach in contract would have very negative consequences for the one who breaks the deal. dormamu could kill strange after the deal was struck, but he can't just invade anyway.

I like to believe that dying billions of times over thousands of years while using magic to try and defend himself gave him more time to practice and refine his magic powers than any other sorcerer could dream of.
Everyone loves what Ironman did, but people don't realize this is the biggest sacrifice in the entire MCU. He spent thousands of years getting killed and tortured over and over, and he was willing to do it indefinitely.
This is pure classic Dr. Strange. Straight out of the comics. Stephen can't overpower Dormammu, but with a little prep time, and some cleverness, he can outwit him. Steve Ditko would be proud of this ending. It's even trippy and psychadelic, just how he liked it.
@@schumannresonanceswithverte no, i think its just fine. Its “Dark Dimension” and it IS dark. Its also chaotic, its distorted and it is also beautiful. After all it has a unique appeal, which is good.
@@MrVlad12340 agree with this 100% the dark dimension is meant to be bizarre, chaotic, and if viewed as strangely beautiful, perhaps it is only by insidious design, like the drops of fake nectar inside a carnivorous plant that is meant to trap insects looking for a meal. Beguiling, but deadly.
Fun fact: Benedict Cumberbatch also provided the motion capture and voice for Dormammu (electronically altered, obviously) So in a weird way Dormammu and Doctor Strange are mirror images of each other.
Yeah lmao, but Dr Strange doesn't have the Time Stone in the Eye of Agamotto, and Dormammu probably has PTSD about it, so Dormammu would probably kill him the first view of a pixel of him
Wait, if Dormammu remembers killing Strange, then clearly Strange remembers dying everytime as well. He literally remembers being killed hundreds of time by Dormammu - stabbed, hacked, crushed, burned, atomized. And yet he goes around without being crazy from PTSD? Damn, bro, this guy's got a stronger mind than even Wolverine.
If you think about it Dr.Strange was the first MCU character to actually defeat his villain without killing him or making him vanish in some kind of way. This "fight" or ending was trully original and it showed us the power of the time stone.
i find this scene amazing for Strange's character development in this movie. he went from selfish and not wanting to risk anything for reputation, to being narcasistic and self loathing, spending everything he has, just to fix his hands, to selfless and powerful. literally putting his life on the line, for the survival of others.
The writing of his character arc was extremely powerful. Sure, Rachel McAdams was underused, but her character served as the NON-narcissistic counterpoint. It's a bummer how everything turned into a digital circus of childish stupidity after "Endgame". 🙄
Two years later in another timeline, Strange tries the same method in order to save Christine, but winds up driving himself insane and kickstarting the destruction of his own universe.
He couldn't save Christine without causing a time paradox, her death is what led Strange onto the path of becoming the eventual Sorcerer Supreme. That's why no matter how many times Strange altered the circumstances surrounding her death the universe would find a way to make certain that her death was unavoidable in order to avoid causing a paradox, of course we all know what happens after Strange saves her.
@@Tim7318-3 tbh honest it’s kinda sad that the watcher never really restored his universe even at the end of the show after he practically saved the entire multiverse
@@zantaazapre2659 I don't believe that the watcher has the ability to "restore" a universe, he's mainly there to watch over the multiverse hence the name/title. It's pretty much the main reason why he sends Black Widow to a different universe where her friends are still alive albeit as different universe counterparts since nothing was waiting for her back in her own universe; if it truly was within his power to restore a universe then why would he have sent her to a different universe instead of restoring her own? To quote: Strange - "You're a god, you can undo this!" Watcher - "I'm not a god, and neither are you."
@@zantaazapre2659 It's right there in his title, Watcher... His role is to record how all events play out in all universes. The only reason he intervened in the 'what if' series is because all of existence across all the universes was at risk of being lost forever, along with his life and purpose.
I wish this scene illustrated exactly how much time had passed in the time loop, in my mind I see it this way. He really did use the time loop to train and fight but ultimately knew he would lose head to head. So he likely spent eons in Dormamu's realm to the point the dark god was legit starting to go insane hence why he begged to be let free from the loop.
Pretty much agree. He was in the loop so long a god with no concept of time got BORED of killing him. Dr strange died millions of times. Maybe billions.
I think this was left open to interpretation, and doing so improved the storytelling. Underwrites the degree of sacrifice that Strange was willing to go through to defeat Dormammu. Once you start piecing it together, you're like Ohhhh wait.. Strange made a being that was omnipotent in his own realm to admit defeat and ask for terms? It couldn't have been just the few times that we observed.. the filmmakers have implied that Strange suffered death and reset countless times in interviews. This training allowed him to explore and endure the countless future scenarios where he was eventually able to forsee the unique outcome that allowed Thanos to be defeated.
well I mean I don't know about reading to much into it. I think it was just the simple noble act of being in that loop, with it on the table that he'd be there for eternity if he didn't break through to him, was what was really needed to be conveyed here. I think that guy caught on real quick a few times after dr strange told him "ur my prisoner lol" so I mean how futile would that be if he just kept killing him over and over and over again. couldn't have taken long to drive the guy insane
And his learning more about dormamu, if strange came out of that finally understanding all of dormamu's weaknesses, he would be insanely god like powerful
2:57. This is such a chilling statement. Not because it is threatening, or anything. Just the lack of anger or passion in his voice. He just sounds resigned, like he is expecting to do this forever, and is willing to accept it. Forget Thanos, Dr. Strange was the truly "Inevitable" person.
Also just before Dormammu says that the way Dr Strange says I've come to bargain it's like he's already starting to find it funny with and Dormammu being fully aware that this scene is looping.
My theory on why this works on Dormammu and wouldn't work on later villains is that because he's on a higher dimension of consciousness he is aware of the time loop, notice how strange never references any previous loop, he is the same every time until Dormammu interrupts him, for strange each loop feels like the first time and he's simply responding to how Dormammu interacts with him. He wins by being a lesser and more limited being than Dormammu, turning his weakness (or lack of higher consciousness) into a strength. (also strange only does the time loop because this realm is timeless to begin with, so he's less likely to break reality)
@@Adaephonable Strange says “beyond time” before flying into his realm, this is why dormammu could perceive the loop while many other lower dimensional villains wouldn’t.
@@JulzGein_ I think thats just him pointing out that no matter how much he is tortured in any loop it won't be enough to get him to stop the loop to escape it, like he doesn't fear anything dormammu can do because "pains an old friend", just my read on it tbh.
It's the way it so perfectly drives home the point that Dormammu is stuck against this immovable WALL of a situation. Like no, we are going to BARGAIN muddafucka
God that is easily one of my favorite Marvel moments ever. It's so cold blooded "You bargain or you remain trapped forever." Or the more famous quote "I'm not stuck in here with you, you're stick in here with me!"
I think he realized no matter what strange would never break the loop, he tried to get him to go insane but that didn’t work either. Strange is arguably the most powerful MCU character for not defeating dormamu but simply bargaining with such a god like creature.
He arguably has the best mental fortitude out of any MCU here. You must have an unbreakable mind to be willing to die countless times for who knows how long.
I like to imagine another ending where they do it so many times that Dormmamu just starts to open up and in one scene just somehow sits down and talks about his childhood and how his parents didn't give him much attention
I believe this was taken from the comics, but in the comics this is how Strange became so gifted in the Mystic Arts so quickly in earth time. because in the loop he spent like a thousand years, or a long time in the loop fighting the Dark Lord. So like you see Strange die in all those ways. its because he learn to adapt, and Dormamu has to keep changing it up, but in the end just making Strange strong and smarter.
The best ending to an MCU movie since Iron Man. The hero doesn't beat the bad guy through brute force, he beats them by outsmarting them. He knows he can't win physically, but he doesn't have to: he just has to be willing to lose for infinity.
@@judeh8160 You thought the first Marvel movie, the movie where there was no definition of 'fairly standard Marvel stuff', was 'fairly standard Marvel stuff'? Compared with what, the ungestated Marvel movies from your mind's womb?
@@chemistrykit920 Regardless of whether or not it stood out at the time, by comparison to the rest of the MCU now, it was generic. Nothing about it is unique or creative like Doctor Strange vs Dormammu is.
@@judeh8160 Back then it was hella great. This was before all the marvel stuff after all. So while it might seem generic now, it was groundbreaking at the time
@@judeh8160 the ending of Iron Man wasn't all that crazy, but I think Tony Stark's character arc was one of if not the best in the MCU. it felt more genuine, realistic, and complex. now we're used to a bunch of crazy whacky superhero stuff, but Iron Man was just a rich jackass that got a harsh reality check and a second chance.
I wonder how many people know that this entire design - set, colors, depiction of both - is STRAIGHT out of the original comic book this scene came from. I remember the actual issue, reading it, as a kid in the late 70s/early 80s. They did an amazing job. Still my favorite Marvel movie.
This scene is like a dark souls boss encounter. Once you start every defeat sets you back to the nearest "checkpoint" strange made his own "save file" and reloads. But the boss has enough awareness to realize!
Honestly this was one of the best scenes in the entire MCU. The main character was faced with a foe who they could literally never win against. He didn't even have a chance. Dormammu was just too powerful, very much a common human versus a literal God. No hope of success through victory because victory was literally impossible. So he had to be clever and use the only thing at his disposal that could achieve success and even then he could only ensure success by letting go of his pride and being willing to lose forever just so the Earth would stay safe...and so he succeeded by failing. All the more powerful when it's shown that be KNOWS going in that he can never be victorious. He was fully prepared to sacrifice himself to an eternity of torture. Which given his completely egocentrentic existence beforehand, is quite a journey. I do kinda wish it went on for another few minutes though and had short clips of him wavering under torture just wanting the pain to end but summoning up his reserves of willpower to force himself to keep going...that way we could have SEEN that he wasn't as fearless as he seemed and he did CARE whether he suffered, but simply cared about the Earth itself more.
Imagine in the first time doctor strange said I’ve come to bargain and Dormamu was like “ok what you want?” and then doctor strange is like “you were supposed to kill me bro.”
Low key one of the best endings to an MCU film, no big CGI fight with two guys with similar powers like 90% of them, just a guy who outsmarted the villain which is very comic book of them
Keep in mind he’s been doing this for a very long time during which he spent mastering his sorcery which explains on how well he was when he fought Thanos
speaking of which this wouldn’t have worked against Thanos because Thanos would’ve never given up for those who can’t put two and two together at least lol
This was not the best MCU film, but this is one of my top 10 MCU scenes. It has a "Dr Who" vibe to it. No big smashing battle, but a clever twist of wits.
I loved this movie so much because Dr. Strange isn't a hero who solves every problem with raw firepower. He THINKS. When he faced a foe that was unbeatable in combat he didn't try to beat him in combat. He beat him in patience. In tolerance. In self sacrifice. He knew Dormmamu would NEVER tolerate being caged, especially by a Mortal.
Doctor Strange: Dormammu, I've come to bargain. Dormammu: *_You've come to DIE... Your world is now my world, like ALL worlds!_* Doctor Strange: Dormammu, I've come to bargain. Dormammu: *_You've come to DIE... Your world is now my- what is this… illusion?_* Doctor Strange: No, this is real. Dormammu: *_GOOD..._* Doctor Strange: Dormammu, I've come to bargain. Dormammu: *_What is happening?!_* Doctor Strange: Just as you gave Kaecillius powers from your dimension, I brought a little power from mine. This is time. Endless, looped, time. Dormammu: *_YOU… DARE?!_* Doctor Strange: Oh f- Dormammu, I've come to bargain. Dormammu: *_You cannot do this forever!_* Doctor Strange: Actually, I can. This is how things are now, you and me, trapped in this moment endlessly. Dormammu: *_Then you will spend eternity DYING!_* Doctor Strange: Yes, but everyone on Earth will live. Dormammu: *_But you will SUFFER!_* Doctor Strange: Pain's an old friend... Dormammu, I've come to bargain. Dormammu: *_End this!_* Doctor Strange: Dormammu- Dormammu- Dormammu! Dormammu: *_You will never win!_* Doctor Strange: No, but I can lose again, and again, and again, and again, forever, and that makes you my prisoner. Dormammu: *_NO. STOP!!! MAKE THIS STOP! SET ME FREE!!!_* Doctor Strange: No, I've come to bargain. Dormammu: *_WHAT DO YOU WANT?!_* Doctor Strange: Take your zealots from the Earth, end your assault on my world and NEVER come back. Do it, and I'll break the loop.
I love how Dormamu starts off thinking that Strange was making a meaningless sacrifice, only to find out that Dormamu was screwed himself. Sure, he could kill Strange forever, but that means he'll never leave the timeloop that he couldn't escape from.(or he would've already, instead of meeting Strange's demands at the end)
Bro if he comes back make it by sheer accident and ‘oh… oh, I was tricked’ and he just zooms out of there before he’s caught in a loop. Or have him appear on another world where he finds strange and just have someone send a message to him and only talk by that just to avoid a time loop, and help strange get the hell out of there.
this is just gonna lead to more power scaling, since these days the only way to beat someone is by killing them. dormammu was allowed to be a huge threat without there needing to be the brute force to kill him
I mean Clea in his daughter (however that works) and is basically Dr. Strange's "true love interest" and had a cameo after the awful third eye in the second one. So I imagine they are at least going to have a brief encounter. If they'd actually work on that and making a good movie instead of more iron-spider and endless other crap that is 1/2 finished or nobody cares about.

Well, the second Dr Strange had a really damn good visual palette at times.
I like to believe that dying billions of times over thousands of years while using magic to try and defend himself gave him more time to practice and refine his magic powers than any other sorcerer could dream of.

This is pure classic Dr. Strange. Straight out of the comics. Stephen can't overpower Dormammu, but with a little prep time, and some cleverness, he can outwit him. Steve Ditko would be proud of this ending. It's even trippy and psychadelic, just how he liked it.

Wait, if Dormammu remembers killing Strange, then clearly Strange remembers dying everytime as well.
He literally remembers being killed hundreds of time by Dormammu - stabbed, hacked, crushed, burned, atomized.
And yet he goes around without being crazy from PTSD?

If you think about it Dr.Strange was the first MCU character to actually defeat his villain without killing him or making him vanish in some kind of way. This "fight" or ending was trully original and it showed us the power of the time stone.
Bcoz he can't even hurt dormammu in first place 😂

"I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with me!" - Rorschach
i find this scene amazing for Strange's character development in this movie. he went from selfish and not wanting to risk anything for reputation, to being narcasistic and self loathing, spending everything he has, just to fix his hands, to selfless and powerful. literally putting his life on the line, for the survival of others.
I’ve always known him as being humble until I seen this movie showing his back story
The writing of his character arc was extremely powerful. Sure, Rachel McAdams was underused, but her character served as the NON-narcissistic counterpoint.
It's a bummer how everything turned into a digital circus of childish stupidity after "Endgame". 🙄
I dont think you know what narcissism is. Narcissists dont do anything for other people, always themselves.
Two years later in another timeline, Strange tries the same method in order to save Christine, but winds up driving himself insane and kickstarting the destruction of his own universe.
Except Christine’s death was an absolute point
He couldn't save Christine without causing a time paradox, her death is what led Strange onto the path of becoming the eventual Sorcerer Supreme. That's why no matter how many times Strange altered the circumstances surrounding her death the universe would find a way to make certain that her death was unavoidable in order to avoid causing a paradox, of course we all know what happens after Strange saves her.

@@zantaazapre2659 I don't believe that the watcher has the ability to "restore" a universe, he's mainly there to watch over the multiverse hence the name/title. It's pretty much the main reason why he sends Black Widow to a different universe where her friends are still alive albeit as different universe counterparts since nothing was waiting for her back in her own universe; if it truly was within his power to restore a universe then why would he have sent her to a different universe instead of restoring her own?
To quote:
Strange - "You're a god, you can undo this!"
Watcher - "I'm not a god, and neither are you."
@@zantaazapre2659 It's right there in his title, Watcher... His role is to record how all events play out in all universes. The only reason he intervened in the 'what if' series is because all of existence across all the universes was at risk of being lost forever, along with his life and purpose.

I wish this scene illustrated exactly how much time had passed in the time loop, in my mind I see it this way.
He really did use the time loop to train and fight but ultimately knew he would lose head to head. So he likely spent eons in Dormamu's realm to the point the dark god was legit starting to go insane hence why he begged to be let free from the loop.
Pretty much agree. He was in the loop so long a god with no concept of time got BORED of killing him. Dr strange died millions of times. Maybe billions.
I think this was left open to interpretation, and doing so improved the storytelling. Underwrites the degree of sacrifice that Strange was willing to go through to defeat Dormammu. Once you start piecing it together, you're like Ohhhh wait.. Strange made a being that was omnipotent in his own realm to admit defeat and ask for terms? It couldn't have been just the few times that we observed.. the filmmakers have implied that Strange suffered death and reset countless times in interviews. This training allowed him to explore and endure the countless future scenarios where he was eventually able to forsee the unique outcome that allowed Thanos to be defeated.
Yeah it would of been interesting if an overlay said death no 1,589,253,525,3452 and then he says make this stop!
well I mean I don't know about reading to much into it. I think it was just the simple noble act of being in that loop, with it on the table that he'd be there for eternity if he didn't break through to him, was what was really needed to be conveyed here. I think that guy caught on real quick a few times after dr strange told him "ur my prisoner lol" so I mean how futile would that be if he just kept killing him over and over and over again. couldn't have taken long to drive the guy insane
@@jpal0227 And he didn't go insane?
I like to imagine Dormamu would come back the minute after Dr. Strange released him, but I think it's good to know that Dormamu is a man of his words.
I prefer to think that dormmamu was like "go back? After he just let me out of there?"
Well hed just get stuck in a loop again
That's not quite true - Dormammu is essentially bound by a magical contract with Strange, that's why he is constantly seeking loopholes around it 🤣
Dormammu: hehe Im gonna secretly come back
Strange: *ILL FUCKEN DO IT AGAIN*
Interesting profile picture
When you realize that behind all of the millions of dollars' worth of CGI, this is really just Benedict Cumberbatch fighting himself.
Finally, someone had noticed. Thank you so much.
You can really feel how each time he comes again he's finding it funnier and funnier
And his learning more about dormamu, if strange came out of that finally understanding all of dormamu's weaknesses, he would be insanely god like powerful
Yes bro
"Pains an old friend"
The way Strange said that line hit me harder then it should have
Painis the old friend 💀
Legend has it that he is still trying to negotiate
I always wondered how on earth the western educational institutions accepted CRT so easily.
Now, I get it....
He has come to bargain
I mean technically, since this movie came out quite a few years ago. He still would be
1:45 dormamu be like: "Am I schizophrenic?!?!?!"
2:57. This is such a chilling statement. Not because it is threatening, or anything. Just the lack of anger or passion in his voice. He just sounds resigned, like he is expecting to do this forever, and is willing to accept it.
Forget Thanos, Dr. Strange was the truly "Inevitable" person.
It is amazing that in this universe Strange is willing to put himself through so much for others and he still catches hate for it from them
Dormammu was literally like *"Yo what is happening?"* 1:43
Also just before Dormammu says that the way Dr Strange says I've come to bargain it's like he's already starting to find it funny with and Dormammu being fully aware that this scene is looping.

Most people don't know this, but strange did this for 3000 years.
In the comics ?
This video clip teach you to don't forget to always save game before boss fight.
My theory on why this works on Dormammu and wouldn't work on later villains is that because he's on a higher dimension of consciousness he is aware of the time loop, notice how strange never references any previous loop, he is the same every time until Dormammu interrupts him, for strange each loop feels like the first time and he's simply responding to how Dormammu interacts with him.
He wins by being a lesser and more limited being than Dormammu, turning his weakness (or lack of higher consciousness) into a strength.
(also strange only does the time loop because this realm is timeless to begin with, so he's less likely to break reality)
They’re both outside time
Wow! It's amazing how you misunderstood this scene so thoroughly. @JulzGein_
@@Adaephonable
Strange says “beyond time” before flying into his realm, this is why dormammu could perceive the loop while many other lower dimensional villains wouldn’t.
Also why would strange say “pain is an old friend” in reply to dormammu if he couldn’t perceive the loop like dormammu?
@@JulzGein_ I think thats just him pointing out that no matter how much he is tortured in any loop it won't be enough to get him to stop the loop to escape it, like he doesn't fear anything dormammu can do because "pains an old friend", just my read on it tbh.
This scene teaches us why we should save before a boss fight
"I'LL die until YOU give up" is certainly one hell of a strategy.
2:03 He almost dropped the F bomb
I kinda wish he did.
02:27, when he said that pain is an old friend, it hit hard 😢
The tone of “No.. I’ve come to *bargain”* always gets me lmao
Like scolding a naughty child
It's the way it so perfectly drives home the point that Dormammu is stuck against this immovable WALL of a situation. Like no, we are going to BARGAIN muddafucka
Dormammu prob saw Earth weakened in Infinity War and Endgame but was still like "Yeah no im NOT dealing with that green stone again"
Imagine how many times had he killed strange being an immortal being he must have killed him innumerable times
God that is easily one of my favorite Marvel moments ever. It's so cold blooded "You bargain or you remain trapped forever." Or the more famous quote "I'm not stuck in here with you, you're stick in here with me!"
Or - "I could do this all day..." (surprised this one hasn't been mentioned yet in the comments).
"I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with me!" - Rorschach
I think he realized no matter what strange would never break the loop, he tried to get him to go insane but that didn’t work either. Strange is arguably the most powerful MCU character for not defeating dormamu but simply bargaining with such a god like creature.
He arguably has the best mental fortitude out of any MCU here. You must have an unbreakable mind to be willing to die countless times for who knows how long.
or maybe he just erase his memory once in a while

I like to imagine another ending where they do it so many times that Dormmamu just starts to open up and in one scene just somehow sits down and talks about his childhood and how his parents didn't give him much attention
If they had done that, I would have either laughed myself to death or just quit.
If this movie were made after 2018 that is legit what they would do, some goo goo ga ga level writing
In the multiverse, there is a guaranteed reality where this happens.
I believe this was taken from the comics, but in the comics this is how Strange became so gifted in the Mystic Arts so quickly in earth time. because in the loop he spent like a thousand years, or a long time in the loop fighting the Dark Lord. So like you see Strange die in all those ways. its because he learn to adapt, and Dormamu has to keep changing it up, but in the end just making Strange strong and smarter.

I wonder how many people know that this entire design - set, colors, depiction of both - is STRAIGHT out of the original comic book this scene came from. I remember the actual issue, reading it, as a kid in the late 70s/early 80s. They did an amazing job. Still my favorite Marvel movie.
This scene is like a dark souls boss encounter. Once you start every defeat sets you back to the nearest "checkpoint" strange made his own "save file" and reloads. But the boss has enough awareness to realize!

Dormammus adorable curiosity “is it an illusion?” 😂
Honestly this was one of the best scenes in the entire MCU. The main character was faced with a foe who they could literally never win against. He didn't even have a chance. Dormammu was just too powerful, very much a common human versus a literal God. No hope of success through victory because victory was literally impossible. So he had to be clever and use the only thing at his disposal that could achieve success and even then he could only ensure success by letting go of his pride and being willing to lose forever just so the Earth would stay safe...and so he succeeded by failing. All the more powerful when it's shown that be KNOWS going in that he can never be victorious. He was fully prepared to sacrifice himself to an eternity of torture. Which given his completely egocentrentic existence beforehand, is quite a journey. I do kinda wish it went on for another few minutes though and had short clips of him wavering under torture just wanting the pain to end but summoning up his reserves of willpower to force himself to keep going...that way we could have SEEN that he wasn't as fearless as he seemed and he did CARE whether he suffered, but simply cared about the Earth itself more.
Imagine in the first time doctor strange said I’ve come to bargain and Dormamu was like “ok what you want?” and then doctor strange is like “you were supposed to kill me bro.”
That would be funnier XD
Amazing how he found out on the first reset. Each time was more and more realization.
Low key one of the best endings to an MCU film, no big CGI fight with two guys with similar powers like 90% of them, just a guy who outsmarted the villain which is very comic book of them

This was not the best MCU film, but this is one of my top 10 MCU scenes. It has a "Dr Who" vibe to it. No big smashing battle, but a clever twist of wits.
"How many seconds....in eternity?"
I loved this movie so much because Dr. Strange isn't a hero who solves every problem with raw firepower. He THINKS. When he faced a foe that was unbeatable in combat he didn't try to beat him in combat.
He beat him in patience. In tolerance. In self sacrifice. He knew Dormmamu would NEVER tolerate being caged, especially by a Mortal.

Good comment’
Making scum-saving a crucial plot-point in a live-action movie is just brilliant. More of this
A much more interesting way to defeat a cosmic terror than just hitting it really hard.
I love how Dormamu starts off thinking that Strange was making a meaningless sacrifice, only to find out that Dormamu was screwed himself. Sure, he could kill Strange forever, but that means he'll never leave the timeloop that he couldn't escape from.(or he would've already, instead of meeting Strange's demands at the end)
A truly terrifying villain who needs to come back. These god like beings coming into MCU are gonna be crazy. The size of them are insane
Bro if he comes back make it by sheer accident and ‘oh… oh, I was tricked’ and he just zooms out of there before he’s caught in a loop.
Or have him appear on another world where he finds strange and just have someone send a message to him and only talk by that just to avoid a time loop, and help strange get the hell out of there.
this is just gonna lead to more power scaling, since these days the only way to beat someone is by killing them. dormammu was allowed to be a huge threat without there needing to be the brute force to kill him
@@Totally_Bonkersyeah
I mean Clea in his daughter (however that works) and is basically Dr. Strange's "true love interest" and had a cameo after the awful third eye in the second one. So I imagine they are at least going to have a brief encounter. If they'd actually work on that and making a good movie instead of more iron-spider and endless other crap that is 1/2 finished or nobody cares about.
After hearing "Dormamu, I've come too bargain" for the 53,760 time. He finally snapped and said "fine, have your stupid world"
Well, this sure gives a whole new meaning to the concept of being defeated by victory.
Note that the little compilation of him dying and respawning is probably only a small fraction of the amount of times he died.
