The following post contains SPOILERS for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. See the movie first, then read it. C’mon, this thing is directed by Sam Raimi! What else do you need to know?
There have been 28 films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe so far, and some of them are more important than others. If you haven’t seen The Incredible Hulk, it’s not like you’d be lost trying to follow The Avengers.

Once the film is over, it’s not just Dr. Strange who’s been changed; the rules of the MCU have been completely rewritten in some big ways.
