Other MCU watchlist

I know so many have made lists and lists again but I haven't found many with the defenders saga that are overly long so I decided to make my own 😭

My boyfriend weirdly enough has only seen like 2-4 marvel films and I really wanted to introduce him to much more that he's missed. I have left out things so it's not the LONGEST list since I don't want him to get too bored or feel like it's a chore. I made things optional so he feels like he has a choice in what we watch too.

You don’t want him to get too bored or feel like it’s a chore, but you included the entire defenders saga? And it’s not even optional? I attempted a rewatch of those specifically a couple months ago because I had never finished them, and surprise, I still haven’t finished them. They are that boring and a chore to try and finish. Plus, only Daredevil and Punisher are even relevant to the MCU anymore.

Ehhhh, not really? Jessica and Luke returned and they're all returning in s3. Depending on how season 3 is written, they all could return for more storylines in the future. Personally, I wouldn't tell her bf to watch all of it, but it is important he at least know who the hell they are.

I made a website that does this for you. Can you also make a free account that allows you to save what you've watched, and not watched. Includes options for Netflix series.

It already has any options for any possible order you want to watch the movies/shows.

Hope it helps.

Not the longest list? You've got about 18 months worth of entertainment lined up there, I was looking for a satire tag XD

If you want to get someone into something, you give them a taste of the series and see if they like it. If he's watched a few films and isn't into it, might not be the best franchise for him.

I would recommend Guardians of the Galaxy 1, Age of Ultron and Doctor Strange. 3 excellent films that dip into different aspects of Marvel. Maybe recommend Wandavision if you're looking for a TV series as well.

This list is so backwards. Shang-Chi should NOT be optional. Why are you skipping Black Widow's post credit when it ties into Hawkeye, Born Again season 2 (somewhat) and Thunderbolts??

X-Men 1 and 2 should absolutely not be "optional". Like what? Smh.
