MCU Ranking Thread! Post yours, defend it against others critiques, mock theirs, spend hours in seething comment trains that will eventually be lost into the void of meaningless in which all we do is someday subsumed!
Mine: Iron Man > Guardians of the Galaxy > Age of Ultron > Winter Soldier > Avengers > Civil War > Iron Man 3 > Thor > Captain America > Ant-Man > Thor 2 > Incredible Hulk > Iron Man 2
I know I'm the minority with Ultron but honestly I left that movie feeling like it was everything I never thought a comic book movie would dare to be. When that city started flying I was just thinking 'holy fuck this really is a super hero comic come to life' Right from the beginning with the Avengers tearing through Hydra mooks it established that tone too, it's weird to me that so few people were able to get on its wavelength. Was it a bit of a mess at parts? Absolutely, but so is every other MCU film except Iron Man. But that movie delivered in every way I always wanted a superhero movie to deliver.

What could be above Iron Man? I thought it was universally considered the best of the bunch

IM1, Ant Man, Cap 1, GOTG, Incredible Hulk, Civil War.
Everything else is garbage. TWS literally made me almost puke in the theater from the shakey cam and quick cuts.

Thor 2 above Thor? Do you even character arc??

Cooper Powell
Its an awful movie.
Benjamin Collins
Sounds like you live in a town full of pussies
Lucas Miller
I know, I know. I just found the first Thor to be a bit boring. Thor 2 just barely edges it out because I liked Kurse and the itneractions between Loki and Thor. I think Thor 1 is objectively the better of the two though.
Camden Bennett

Everything else is worthless.
I will say though that Thor 1 is not as bad as I remember. It's just Portman and dennings that are fucking painful
Jeremiah Gomez
I hear you. I get the criticisms but I thought it was pretty good as well, aside from a few too many flat jokes. Liked it more than the first one.
Joshua Morales
Yeah that's fair actually. I would say that Thor 2 is the funniest MCU movie. Lot of good physical humor on top of the standard quipy script.
Brayden Jenkins
All these low low rankings for Iron Man 3. How can y'all have so little love for Shane Black. Man's a master. Ain't y'all seen Kiss Kiss Bang Bang?

Objectively true ranking coming through

Cooper Bennett
Cut the check.
Austin Ward
Bretty good. Also
CUT THE CHECK
Leo Lewis
Eh, it was alright. My big issue with it is that it suffered from not having an interesting villain and there could have been more suited up Tony. The Mandarin twist wouldn't have been nearly as bad if the actual villain was cool, but Killian was really boring.
Jordan Perez
THOR ABOVE ANTMAN
ABOVE THE FIRST CAPTAIN AMERICA
SOMEBODY CALL GOD BECAUSE THIS BELONGS IN HELL A S A P
Parker Reed
>Bland as fuck with two or three good scenes Ant-Man above the flawless plot and effortless charm of Iron Man AND the delightful adventure of GotG >The utter mediocrity of Iron Man 2 above the at least humorous Thor 2 >The stakes free implausibility chain that is Civil War above Avengers
Not even close
William Watson
These fucks actually like thor what the hell. Thor is on par with man of shit.
Thor 2 is widely seen as the worst MCU film. It has 2 good jokes and the rest is mediocre as fuck, I don't know why you would describe it as "humorous" unless you mean laughably bad.
Civil War is better than Avengers in almost every way. Avengers has boring Whedon direction and OOC Cap.
Owen White
i believe that iron man 2 has some really great character moments that make the movie for me. I believe it's severely underrated. Could a used some more Gendy storyboards though
Wyatt Hall
Yeah I think that was honestly the worst fight scenes I've ever seen in cape media aside from Jessica Jones
Zachary Anderson
Captain America's first half is god tier but it totally lost focus after that and turned into a snooze fest. Ant-Man had two good scenes, the miniature fight and the trippy subatomic adventure, the rest of the movie couldn't even be saved by Paul Rudds charm and that's saying something.
Thor might not be perfect but it had solid drama, a good character arc, some entertaining action and some nice humor. It's a solid movie.
Michael Torres
Iron Man 2 is alright. Not nearly as good as the first but it's decent, I don't know why people shit on it so much. Rhodey was awesome in it and the final showdown is fun.
The villain is completely garbage though, no doubt about that.
Every ANTS scene is good.
Ryan Foster
Whedon does have tv level skills at directing actors but he either knows how to do a big action set piece or knows who to delegate to because both Avengers had some of the best group based action ive ever seen. It always felt like everyone was doing something and they were constantly connecting in interesting ways. That hanger fight in Civil War had a bunch of great individual scenes but as a whole felt really disconnected and stilted.
Also at least Avengers 1 had the benefit of actual consequences. The Avengers exist now! Things are different! Each character got an arc! God I miss that.
Bentley Morales
God that Gendy fight is spectacular. Why haven't they used him again. Why doesn't every movie use him.
Isaac Roberts
Yeah the fact that Bucky has gotten two movies about him and is STILL not Cap's sidekick is pretty fucking annoying.
Logan Davis
Ant-Man is literally perfect, the only people who don't like it are those who were all
>Ant-Man will be MCU's first bomb!!
>actual consequences
Like the Avengers being split up, Bucky frozen in Wakanda, Spider-Man and Black Panther being introduced? Every character got an arc in Civil War too.
Falcon is his sidekick.
Ian Reyes
No, Falcon is his ally. Bucky should be his sidekick.
Isaac Cox
What Sup Forums will tell you: Winter Soldier > Iron Man > Avengers > Guardians of the Galaxy > Civil War > Ant-Man > Age of Ultron > Thor > Captain America >>>>> Iron Man 3 > Incredible Hulk > Iron Man 2 > Thor 2

Falcon is better.

Landon Sanders
Who says I didn't? It is arguably the third best movie behind Winter Soldier and First Avenger. It is just ridiculous to put it that high.
Joshua Stewart
Slightly off topic but does anyone else love the fact that PAUL RUDD of all people is now one of the biggest superhero actors in the world?
Go back in time just ten years not a lot and tell people Iron Man vs Captain America will be a bigger movie than Batman v Superman and that goofy 40something nice guy comediac actor from Friends and who cameos in Judd Apatow movies will be one of the biggest and most critically acclaimed superheroes in the world, you'd get laughed off.
Jackson Gutierrez
It's ridiculous to put it at 1 rather than 3? It's that much of a crime? Opinions user.
Jayden Morales
It was definitely a mess but I hear you. I look back and it's probably the most "comic book" MCU film we've had so far. It was so unapologetic of its roots for better or for worse. While I wouldn't rank it super high, it's definitely far from touching any of the lows for me.
Austin Jones
I always knew Tayne was destined for greatness
For real, he was 90% of the reason I wanted to see Ant-Man
Not really. There's a reason it kickstarted this whole universe, it's a very well done movie. Probably still the best ending in the MCU.
Jason Perry
It is actually rather great desu. To think of all the actors who have been brought to stardom status thanks to the MCU, specially Chris Evans post the trainwreck that were the FF movies, is great.
Juan Collins
The guy is pretty down on himself too. He's a great actor. He plays a great human torch and cap, two completely different characters.

David Phillips
Couldn't imagine anyone other than Evans in the role. Much better than any of the people the fandom suggested like Aaron Eckhart or Brad Pitt say. He just has that goofy nice guy slightly dorky heart the Steve would have especially pre-serum and post being thawed out of ice, which I don't think other actors could nail. Plus y'know n-no homo.
Ryan Murphy
>Winter Soldier >Ant-Man >Guardians of the Galaxy >Civil War >Iron Man >Avengers >Iron Man 3 >First Avenger >Thor >Age of Ultron >Thor 2 >Iron Man 2 >Incredible Hulk
Honestly ANTS is pretty underrated, Douglas is a great Pym and Rudd does a good Lang
David Jackson
Iron Man is legit one of the best superheroe movies period let alone MCU movie. But agreed Cap First Avenger is criminally underrated. I loved it as a stand alone film and it works even better in hindsight as the first part of the triology.
Asher Wood
Paramount thought otherwise, as all of these were nearly given the role of Cap and one of them might have been signed up as Cap before Evans became interested on the role:
Sebastian Stan. Channing Tatum. Garrett Hedlund. Scott Porter. Mike Vogel. Wilson Bethel. Michael Cassidy. Jensen Ackles. Chace Crawford. Kellan Lutz. Robert Buckley. Ryan Phillipe. Alexander Skarsgard.
Nathan Adams
Don't forget scene stealing Luis and badass Hope
Everyone was on point in that movie, even Cross's actor did the best he could with what he was given
Justin Hill
I see Ackles as someone that's more for the role of Jason Todd.
Julian Gutierrez
>Sebastian Stan
Thank goodness he didn't get the role. Cap needs to have charisma and charm oozing from his pores.
Joseph Nelson
Agreed. Stan is a perfect Winter Soldier but couldn't imagine him as Steve. Maybe Ultimate Steve. And even then Ultimate Steve while being a douche was still charismatic as fuck.
Carson Jackson
CUT THE CHECK
Lucas Bailey
You know he's probably becoming BuckyCap, right? After all, he has the bigger contract of all the MCU actors and better use him. I would be happy with a couple BuckyCap movies (maybe one centering around his trial) and then sending him off with a Winter Soldier as an Avenger solo movie.
Gabriel Wood
Boring, FalconCap would be better
Henry Stewart
No it wouldn't. Stop just saying that to be progressive. BuckCap is easily superior and makes way more sense.
Thomas Evans
>it involves black guy so people must only like it to look progressive
Kill yourself.
Levi Stewart
Give a good reason.
Ryan Baker
>brainwashed murderer becoming Captain America makes more sense than an upstanding veteran
Mmkay
Matthew Young
There's a reason why they are introducing Doctor Strange and putting him on a freezer.
Luis Smith
Falcon >has cool, unique skillset with wings and Redwing >modern veteran instead of just Cap again, new angle >likable, charming >not a brainwashed murderer, can't be controlled with a few codewords >cuts the check
Buckyboy >just punches people >same war as Cap, been done >gruff and tuff >brainwashed murderer, could go off the rails >does not cut the check
>B-B-BUT YOU CAN ONLY LIKE BLACK CHARACTERS IF YOU'RE A PC KEK PROGRESSIVE LIBKEK!!!
What does that even mean?
Parker Brooks
Because they can use Doctor Stranger's telekinesis to cure Bucky from Hydra's brainwashing.
Also, your list of reasons is shit. Bucky is as worthy of being Cap as Falcon. I would say even more, as he endured 70 years of brainwashing at the hands of both the Soviet Union and HYDRA.
Xavier Perez
No, your reasons are shit.
See, I can do it too.
Ian Martin
Except you know Falcon is a normal guy and has none of Caps powerset and Bucky has Caps entire powerset.
Gavin Phillips
The entire message of The First Avenger is that it's about the person, not the power.
Checkmate.
Bentley Watson
But Caps villains would literally murder and rape Falcon.
Ian Jenkins
The only Cap villain that would do that so far is Bucky and he's a good guy now
Cooper Myers
Red Skull would have, Crossbones would have, Zemo would have.
Austin Peterson
>Red Skull
They directly fought one time, also call me when Red Skull can fly
>Crossbones
Falcon already held his own against him
>Zemo
Lmao wut? He wasn't even a fighter.
Stop being racist user, it's current year.

Nathaniel Edwards
GOTG is my favorite hands-down, I love cosmic stuff. Looking forward to v2 more than anything else right now.
All of Cap's movies are great. I love the first one especially for the retro sci-fi theme.
Iron Man 1 still holds up real well for me still. 3 was pretty fun as a standalone movie.
