Would’ve been cooler if Strange had gained the power to fully beat Wanda one-on-one instead of the teenage girl throwing a few punches then being stopped by one blockage.

^^my point was that no one called him out as sexist for it, and it was a physical altercation.
Had Strange beaten Wanda at the end of MoM it would have been weird/borderline nonsensical given the structure of the movie up to that point, but unless he literally did it by backhanding her and telling her to know her place no one would have latched onto it as sexist.
Pretending that the only reason that Strange didn’t beat Wanda was over concerns of appearing sexist is weird.
^Gosh how many buzzwords were in that sentence.
People would because Marvel is growing into a pit of snowflakes that can't get a life. It wouldn't have been nonsensical, Strange could've beaten Wanda, and then America could've sent with Strange's help Wanda to her children, it's not impossible.
Strong words from someone who spends half their time here complaining.
Also, buzzwords? Do you mean sexist - the word I used in response to you using it?
Aside from that I’m not sure what you’re interpreting as buzzwords.
Why would America need Strange's help? Other than keeping a bunch of dudes secure in themselves that no woman can have a finale arc.
The buzzwords were a joke, but reread your sentence and it does look kind of silly (No offense)
Also for the complaining argument, you aren't helping your case. If I am complaining too much then why bother responding?
Because I’ve some time to kill in between things and this kind of bs deserves some pushback.
Whatever makes you sleep TheOgreS
And @Xandermcc Probably because half of the Marvel audience is a bunch of dudes. And it's not like America won't get her own movie in the future, Strange can be a mentor or something.
You may however be overestimating how many of those dudes are insecure dudes.
So men wanting good content makes them insecure?
Flashy fights aren’t always required for high quality story telling. Wanda is a character who’s crippled by all of the losses she’s suffered. The darkhold corrupted her to the point that she was willing to go to great lengths to achieve some semblance of happiness in the form of Billy and Tommy.
When Chavez showed Wanda the realization that she was becoming something that her children would never accept or love, her storyline reached its conclusion (as far as we know that is). When someone you consider a friend or at least an ally is clearly suffering or going down the wrong path, your first inclination shouldn’t be to pound them into a bloody pulp. You should at least try to reason with them and help them see their wrongdoings which is exactly what Chavez and Doctor Strange did for Wanda.
What do you think?
