I just saw this last week and it was pretty good. I liked how it separated itself from the rest of the MCU. Dr. Strange and The Ancient One one were great characters and so was Wong. Mordo can potentially be one of the best villains of the MCU with a little work. He could use a bit more depth.
I can see Stange being one of the leading faces in the next phase of the MCU, along with Spider-Man and maybe the Guardians of the Galaxy. All of the talk of the multiverse along with how powerful and intelligent he is makes me think he can be a crucial link going forward.
It's not just his powers and IQ that make me think he'll be very important. He also now has access to one of the Infinity Stones. His use of it was one of the most clever moments in the entire MCU. I liked how he used his brain which was always his most powerful asset even without the mystic powers. I'd like to see him and Wanda Maximoff be very important in the big battle because of their abilities.
Dormammu also has a lot of potential. I don't know if the MCU is pursuing another big bad but I wouldn't be surprised to see Dormammu take up the mantle in the next several phases. He's definitely someone that would require every hero and maybe even some villains to team up to fight against. One Infinity Stone may not be enough to defeat him next time.
Speaking of which, that only leaves one Infinity Stone left to be uncovered. Which movie will it be discovered in? Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Thor: Ragnarok, and Black Panther will all be released before the next Avengers movie. I think it's safe to rule out Spidey and BP so that leaves GOTG 2 and Thor. I'm guessing it will be found in Thor: Ragnarok since Thor told Cap and Iron Man about the stones in AOU and went to find out why four of the six had appeared in recent years and who's the puppet master using them as pawns.
