Why Was Peanut The Squirrel Euthanized By New York Officials? P'Nut's Death And The Internet's Reaction Explained
Marvel is about to add yet another 150 minutes onto its vast runtime of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Thursday's release of Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness. While we can't say for certain, it's likely the many film lovers out there who have avoided the MCU because of its gargantuan catalog of movies one must watch to appreciate the various interconnecting plots will likely not start their MCU journey at the sequel to 2016's Doctor Strange.
This created a unique opportunity to do a little trolling for one Twitter user, Brazilian film critic Gabriel Carvalho, who tweeted that the film's post-credits scene was enough to sustain another "10 years of media" and to appreciate it, one must "watch the seventh episode of the season 6 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., the first episode of What If…?, the whole Loki series, Deadpool 2, the entire final season of X-Men The Animated Series and unbelievably Inhumans."
Not gonna spoil anything, but make sure you watch the seventh episode of the season 6 of "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D", the first episode of "What If…?", the whole "Loki" series, "Deadpool 2", the entire final season of "X-Men: The Animated Series" and unbelievably "Inhumans". pic.twitter.com/TBCZipnsFm

The tweet is very Poe's Law, but to be clear, Carvalho is trolling. He's basically tweeted the same thing before as a way of parodying hyperbolic reactions to superhero movies and announced beforehand he was going to do a troll post related to Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness.
That said, not everyone knew Carvalho was doing a bit, as it's not unreasonable to see an MCU stan list a number of movies one should watch as homework before seeing the next Marvel movie.

Others picked up on Carvalho's joke and turned it into a meme, listing numerous other films one should watch before watching Doctor Strange, if they decided to watch Doctor Strange at all.
DOCTOR STRANGE 2 is a wild, cameo-filled spectacle. You need to watch Drive My Car, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Personal Shopper, Long Day’s Journey Into Night, Bait and Monos to prepare for it. And then just not watch Doctor Strange 2.

Not gonna spoil anything but my sources tell me that you should probably play Drakengard 2 and Devil May Cry 2 before watching Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness…….

Doctor Strange comes out this Thursday on May 6th, and if it's going to be your first MCU movie, power to you, but if this meme is to be believed, unless you've seen every piece of media ever released, it probably won't make sense.
