This is reinforced by the Illuminati sequence. The Illuminati—a council of “superior” heroes from Earth-838—represent the ultimate fantasy of ordered multiversal governance. Their swift, brutal deaths at Wanda’s hands prove that control is an illusion. The film’s ideology is clear: any attempt to police the multiverse leads to catastrophe.
: The entire film was shot for IMAX , providing 26% more picture than standard theaters.
Unlike Wanda, Strange’s arc is learning to relinquish control. The film repeatedly shows his fatal flaw: always needing to hold the knife (a call-back to his neurosurgeon origin). The scene where he gives America Chavez the agency to punch the final portal is the climax of his development. He stops solving the problem and instead trusts another.
