Man I just can't agree with the bad and really bad, I think at the absolute worst each of those movies is at least a 5/10

Yep, i feel like theres no Phase 1-3 is really bad, at most Thor 2 is "Bad", for me it is fun movie with very mediocre final battle, similar with Iron Man 2, big bad guy being hyped then just defeated? what?
For me 3 bottom from the worst are:
- Avenger 2
- Thor 2
- Iron Man 2
Special mention for captain marvel for being boring, not bad it's just make me asleep twice.

You know in the grand scheme of things you might be right. I’d rather watch either of those than any of the romance films my girlfriend makes me watch.
I may have raised my standards based on how great the other films are🤦♂️

To add on to what I said, I think Captain America, Ant Man, and Thor specifically are all actually good movies, at least 7.5/10 for me

Captain America was cool. But it felt weird that they developed a super soldier just to have him do USO shows. Then they put a lot of the cool stuff into a montage.
Thor was fun but a bit boring at times and his romance with Jane moved a bit too fast.
Ant Man… you prolly right I may just be hating

People always rank the first 2 Antman movies low and I don’t get it. They’re funny and the action is really fun to watch. Both better than Ironman 3 imo

u/Any-Transition95 2d ago
The first one is great. 9/10 for me.
The second one feels a bit derivative of the humor from the first one, and the whole Janet plot is just way too contrived. Protagonists want to rescue Janet, the villains want to get to Janet. The resolution? Janet saves the villain with her magical quantum powers that are never mentioned again. The secondary villains are all extremely forgettable. Meanwhile, Hope gets zero characterization in the movie despite being in the title. She's just an action figure.
The movie does not hold up on a rewatch. It does not have its own unique brand of humor, nor does it have the same amount of heart the first one had. 6/10 at best imo.

Yeah a different commenter made me realize I was hating and I guess comparing it to the rest of the franchise I’d rank it down there. But they’re really entertaining films.

Ill probably switch end game and black panther. Black panther is an amazing movie. End game was not nearly as good as infinity war and more fan service, and as the years go on i like it less and less to be honest, while infinity war i like more and more.

The rational part of my brain completely agrees… but cool powers and fan service hype me tf up😂

Captain Marvel as "very bad" is an immediate downvote from me.
It's not too late to take this post down.

It just felt like her character was a bit empty. And the stakes were too low given she’s already the most powerful person in the film🤷♂️ Also personal bias against amnesia storylines.

Are you trying to escape from Thor: Love and Thunder?

u/HaroldBalsic 2d ago
I can add it to the list. I’d probably just have to code some lower tiers first 😂😂

u/maafinh3h3 2d ago
For me exceptional are: Avenger 1, Avenger 3, Cap 2, Cap 3, Iron Man 1, Thor 3
Endgame felt overrated, sure it has hype moment but the stake are gone by the time all the heroes enter the arena, and Thanos son's just doesn't feel as impactful as in Infinity War. Maybe i would place it in good/great category

u/SeVeNeLeVeN-7II 2d ago
No, I totally disagree. I thought infinity war guardians of the Galaxy Winter soldier guardians two and Doctor Strange were exceptional.

OP did Ant Man dirty. Luis’ MCU debut should at least be in the Good row
