Spider-Man has been fantastic as a supporting character in combo movies but I think his movies usually lack a really good epic moment like the end of Ragnarok. I also don't think they have any emotional weight to them. Even the end of the newest one was meh for me, but definitely the best of the three. They are always just fun and entertaining but not much deeper than that.


Yeah. Aunt May dying and Peter having to forego the relationships with his friends forever and Peter 2 having to recall how he didn't catch his love in his universe…no emotional weight at all.

Bro….Iron Man was a great foundation to grow the MCU for sure….but it's safe to say the movies (much like Vision) have evolved into something bigger and greater than their beginning

Haven't came across anyone that has Iron Man in their top 5 (and even top 10) because of how amazing some of the later films are.

Remember….being #10 for an MCU movie is still amazing considering how high a bar these movies set for themselves


First Iron Man is top 5 for me but I was a big reader of the IM comic when I was young. He was my favorite superhero.

Nope.... just, nope.

Also, Black Panther is probably the most overrated MCU film. T'challa's character arc in Civil War was so much better. And his sister has got to be the worst character in the MCU.


Yup. It's a quality movie but the 98% ratings online were so ridiculous. 98% has to be a perfect movie. Black Panther is not a perfect movie.

And….no love for Spider-Man Homecoming? Tom Holland? Best portrayal of high school Peter Parker? Young boy desperate to prove himself to Tony Stark but ends proving something more to himself?

Nobody?

See. Great take! You grew up with that character. In my whole life I've read one comic book and it was a Ghostrider comic.

Also…I've watched these movies (17 so far I think) in the past 2 months or so….I'm gonna have a different take there's just no helping that.

Dang I got to get Infinity War finished

my bad. I must've misinterpreted the bottom of page 1112 and top of 1113 on the Star Wars thread. Thought you had considered it good.

Lol... everyone is being overly critical of your opinion of Thor: Ragnarok because of how crazy it is. We are doing it in a very light hearted way, and I haven't seen anyone actually take any of this seriously.

Wow! So I genuinely felt bad that my post could've been taken seriously in any sense and I had a client walking up at the time….so I was trying to post as quickly as I could from my phone and auto-correct must've kicked in….

I jokershady…of sound mind and body (and not under the influence of KBS whiskey barrel beer) to promise hence forth that if this character:



ever appears in any form of medium including but not limited to: Endgame, Thor Love and Thunder, anything in the MCU Universe, and my dreams or nightmares,



that I will give him a clean slate, thus forgiving him of his odd idiosyncrasies (such as orgy's on a defenseless Austin Powers orange pimp ship) and allowing myself to be entertained as if this was my first time meeting the grandmaster.

It is written.
