Game: Rank the MCU Movies

[BLAKE]

For the uninitiated, MCU = Marvel Cinematic Universe

In order of release, they are...

Phase 1:
Iron Man
The Incredible Hulk
Iron Man 2
Thor
Captain America: The First Avenger
Avengers

Phase 2:
Iron Man 3
Thor: The Dark World
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Guardians of the Galaxy
Avengers: Age of Ultron
Ant-Man

Phase 3:
Captain America: Civil War

Upcoming Phase 3 movies:
Doctor Strange
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
Thor: Ragnorok
Black Panther
Avengers: Infinity War Part 1
Avengers: Infinity War Part 2

[BLAKE]

My list is:

1. Guardians of the Galaxy
2. Avengers
3. Captain America: Civil War
4. Iron Man
5. Captain America: The First Avenger
6. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
7. Ant-Man
8. Avengers: Age of Ultron
9. Thor
10. Iron Man 2
11. Thor: The Dark World
12. Iron Man 3
13. The Incredible Hulk


The two outliers there, relative to what most people say is that I rank Guardians so high, and First Avenger over Winter Soldier. I'm not saying I'm right, it's just that from a pure enjoyment level, Guardians surprised the hell out of me and I find it the most re-watchable. As for First Avenger, that WWII stuff just works for me. It's a really entertaining origin story.

I can't put Ant Man that high up on this list really. Out of all of them, that's the most forgettable of the movies. It was ok, but I don't even really remember much about it.

mstng86, Solid list. Man, people sure seem to hate Iron Man 2. I thought it was fine, and better than 3, even though I didn't hate The Mandarin twist like most people did. Actually thought that was pretty cool.

Now, all the separate pieces of Tony's suit flying themselves from New York to Tennessee (or wherever it was)... that was a detail I could not abide. Just the thought of his cod piece flying hundreds of miles broke the movie for me.

Ant-Man was admittedly not the best, but Paul Rudd charisma did a lot for it.

Yea, but the movie itself brought Tony to reality in a lot of ways and the bad guy was probably the most formidable one he fought in all 3 movies. The Mandarin part was disappointing and brought it down on my list. I really want a real Mandarin at some point. The pieces flying around, meh, its a comic book movie.

If they would have done anyone else other than Paul Rudd, it probably would be last on my list.

I'll take flying cod pieces and fake Mandarin over Ant-Man "shrinks but retains his entire mass when it's convenient, except when he doesn't, because it's convenient the other way," like when he's making craters in asphalt but being able to run on a turntable or ride on an ant.

You should NEVER question the creative greatness of Stan Lee, Larry Lieber and Jack Kirby. They knew what they were doing 50 years ago.

I mean, we are talking about a shrinking man for gods sake.
