Topic	Why didn't Dr. Strange just yeet Thanos into the mirror dimension?

Yeah, but again that only applies to the newer versions of the gems in the comics, not the original versions or, from what we've seen, the movie versions. The movies seem to blatantly contradict that they work that way. Arguably the various stones in Loki that don't work could suggest that those rules apply, but if so it conflicts with film continuity, and there are alternate possible explanations anyway. Entity13 posted... Movie Thanos saw himself as the good guy, doing what is necessary to save the universe. He is not out to impress Death. He's also very much an "ends justify the means" sort of guy, and was about to murder half the universe regardless. Literally nothing about him implies he's the sort of person who would hesitate to murder a few more people "for the greater good". If anything, he should be more willing to do so than comic Thanos, who was much more egotistical and conceited, and mostly willing to spare heroes or fight them "on their own level" because he found it amusing, and all the better to more cruelty break them later. A sadistic villain Thanos obviously enjoys humiliating and taunting heroes. Movie Thanos should be far more concerned with just completing his life's work, getting the distasteful job over with, and killing his victims as merciful as possible because he's not trying to be cruel. Kill the heroes quick and easy and take the stones, rather than playing cat and mouse with them to give them false hope before plunging them into despair. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:959287309] in Why didn't...
