I don't see why it would be. Dr. Strange is a neat character and the movie looks good. Heck if Guardians of The Galaxy can do well so can Strange.

Anywhere from horrible (Incredible Hulk) to average (Thor: The Dark World). The IH had some really sub-par looking CGI, IMO and...while I think it's better than Thor:TDW, it wasn't anything worth getting excited over. Looking at TDW, I can't believe how bland that movie was. The special effects are some of the best I have seen in any MCU movies, but WOW that's a bad movie. It got decent money, overall though. It kind of sucks, because TDW had all the right ingredients to be a phenomenal success, critically and box office wise.
I also realized that I didn't really answer the question. I think Marvel Studios does have an easier time being successful now, as their cinematic universe has become quite popular. I think if the movie does Ant-Man money with RT rating anywhere below 65%, I'd consider it a flop. If it does the RT score I mentioned, but does anywhere up to TDW money, I'd still consider it a flop and worth worrying about. If the movie does sub-par RT-wise, but blows up box office wise, I think MS will be consider it a success, but a conditional success. Almost akin to what people probably thought of Pixar after Cars came out. That they're capable of making really good movies, but they're not guaranteed success stories as was perceived.

Flop? No.
Middling to minor success? Probably.
While I doubt this is going to rewrite any of the record books I figure that Disney's marketing department is so keyed into the children's market that they're going to at least break even on this. The film isn't released until Nov. 4th and there's no major competition until Fantastic Beasts comes out on Nov. 18th which gives this at least two weekends to be #1 (Hacksaw Ridge is aiming for a decidedly different market).
Does anybody have an actual figure for the budget? The only number I've seen so far has been $165M which (if accurate) means that it'll have to net around $330M to break even.
Strange has a Budget of $165 million. About the average for a non avenger Movie. (Gog was $170 AM was $130)
BC is well known and loved enough to get his fans to watch. my friend says she will watch solely because she loves BC.
Won't make Civil War money but it should still do okay at the b.o.
I think marvel has a good enough track record to the point where fans are willing to give any marvel movie a chance. As long as the movie doesn't suck, it should be fine.
