Ranking the Marvel Cinematic Universe

Maybe they will finally do Jean Grey right. Loved her simce I read Dark Phoenix as a young teenager.

What's the line between a young teenager and an old teenager?

13-15 and 16-19.

That leaves no room for middle teenagers, Anders.

Didn’t think about that.

Middle teenagers are the worst anyway.

I have seen all the movies.

So, did you pick up on what happened in each of the Phase 2 projects including AoS?

[stip]

for as much as I love the MCU, there's still a bunch of stuff on there I haven't seen.

Well, I've seen the movies spread out over several years. Anything specific you think I should rewatch?

[stip]

I've found of all of the MCU movies Age of Ultron does the best with rewatches in terms of picking up on themes, arcs, plot points it is easy to miss the first time through. It's just an overstuffed movie so some of it takes a while to sink in.

Civil War (technically phase 3) and Winter Soldier should both be re-watched because their awesome. Civil War is also a movie where the major story arc can be missed. In part because they insisted on using the Civil War name it's easy to see the movie as being primarily about that registration/oversight story. But that's really just a device to advance the central conflict, which is really about what the avengers/heroism means to Iron Man vs. Captain America, as well as the nature of their friendship. It's actually more of a character piece.

[dimejinky99]

Civil war is really good.

You haven’t seen Ragnarok LV?
It’s a ton of fun. Way more fun than GOTG

I’m picking up the 4K Blu-ray, which comes out (I think) on March 6.

Ah cool. It totally took me by surprise. Wildly funny. Waititi is wonderful. Everything he touches is gold.

[Anders]

LV is only two movies short.

[dimejinky99]

I really loved dr strange.

Watched iron man last night. It holds up. Really good.

[stip]

You clearly dislike these movies, LV. Why do you keep watching them?

[VinylGuy]

Ragnarok was a surprise, i kinda hated the other two.

I stopped after Age of Ultron. GOTG 2 pulled me back a little. I don’t know why I watched BP.

[dimejinky99]

Ragnarok will restore your faith I reckon.

Also.. Star Wars the last Jedi is coming on 4K LV. Lucky you.

I canceled my preorder of that as soon as I saw the movie, haha.

[Anders]

I think Ragnarok was funny, but relied far too heavily on humor to get over. It's supposed to be light entertainment, but when you remove all the drama, it takes away an important element for me. With that said Ant-Man was every bit as funny, but somehow the story just clicked.
