This is too hard. Let's just say for now Infinity War takes the cake. All the build-up was worth it.

My list, taking into account that it has been awhile since I have seen a lot of these movies:
1) Captain America: The Winter Soldier 2) Avengers: Infinity War 3) Marvel's The Avengers 4) Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 5) Iron Man 6) Thor: Ragnarok 7) Captain America: Civil War 8) Guardians of the Galaxy 9) Captain America: The First Avenger 10) Spider-Man: Homecoming 11) Iron Man 3 12) Thor 13) Avengers: Age of Ultron 14) Black Panther 15) Ant-Man 16) Doctor Strange 17) Iron Man 2 18) Thor: The Dark World 19) The Incredible Hulk I dunno. I feel like I'm way off here. Also realized I don't really remember The Incredible Hulk at all. Probably why it is last. |

By the way, The Winter Soldier was on TV tonight. Been a while since I actually watched a movie on TV. That was nice. |

The original Avengers is probably #2 behind infinity war for me. Other films are better overall than the first avengers but none of them can match that truly special feeling of seeing those characters together for the first time, and seeing so.etching that had never really been accomplished in cinema before.
Got that same feeling from Infinity War, just on a much bigger scale. IW is basically the first avengers on steroids. Like, Steiner level steroids. |

Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Avengers: Infinity War Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel's The Avengers Captain America: The First Avenger Captain America: Civil War Spider-Man: Homecoming Iron Man Ant-Man Black Panther Doctor Strange The Incredible Hulk Avengers: Age of Ultron Thor Iron Man 3 Thor: The Dark World Avengers: Age of Ultron Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Thor: Ragnarok Iron Man 2 I think the Cap movies have been the best at allowing you to get to know the character, having him develop and show conflict with other "good guys." Feels like alot think Cap is the most boring out of the Avengers and I don't think it could be further from the truth. Infinity War is the culmination of the whole f'n thing and that in and of itself is a thing. GOG took me by surprise with how good it was. I was pretty much expecting this to be the first faceplant of the series and man was I wrong. On the flip side, GOG2 was the same as 1. Nothing new. Seemed like they got lazy with it. Love the humor in most of these but Ragnarok was way too much. In a movie where Asgaard is destroyed and his father dies there wasn't alot of gravity felt. Plus, Thor is great as the straight man (calling Rocket "Rabbit" was great) where everyone else tries to be funny. He hasn't been funny so why does he have to be overly funny here? Haven't seen IM2 in a while but I remember just feeling bored with the whole thing. |

Ragnarok did get a bit "cringy" with the humour at times, but overall I thought it was real good.
I agree about Captain America..... if I gave it more thought, I'd probably have moved First Avenger up on my list..... probably even above Civil War because I'd probably watch it rather than Civil War, so not sure why I ranked it below. |

If I was being completely unbiased and judging them from an objective standpoint, then Winter Soldier would have to be #1 as it's just the most well crafted of them all, from a writing, acting and directing standpoint.
But I'm not unbiased so it would probably be around 5. As good as it is, there are a handful of movies that I just had more fun watching. Infinity Gauntlet has been my favorite comic storyline since I was a kid, and Thanos has always been my favorite villain, so Infinity War was always going to be my number one as long as they did it justice, and they ended up going well beyond that, imo. Thor Ragnorok is up there, but it's conflicting for me, because the only comic story that comes close to dethroning Infinity Gauntlet for me, is Gorr the Godbutcher Ragnorok did so well, and was so well received however, that there is no way that any future Thor movie goes back to being darker and more serious. And you can't tell the Gorr story with Ragnarok's tone. You just can't. So while I loved Ragnorok, I also kind of hate it for doing so well. Last edited by Fignuts; 05-02-2018 at 04:28 PM. |

Deadpool doesn't count for the Marvel Cinema Universe?
I know the X-Men and Fantastic Four series don't because of issues with FOX and until last year Spider-Man series didn't because of Sony. |

Nah, Deadpool ain't MCU. Which is good for this thread because it would make the ranking even harder.

Is Winter Soldier just fucking incredible or something? I genuinely had never heard it was so good but several of you have put it top now.

Really good spy thriller. Really shifted the marvel movie structure too. Might have less weight for you since you're seeing them out of order.

I don't know really, I think I'm staying with the plot and overall story arc. I should have watched Winter Soldier before Civil War but seeing it now will clear up some questions I had.
Elizabeth Olsen is too beautiful these days. Feel like I would have ripped my dick off watching these if I was a teenager. |

You've seen 5 post Winter Soldier; there was a big tone shift with Winter Soldier. I dont want to spoil, but I think you'll really enjoy it. The film holds up I think.

Sebastian Stan was one of the best parts of Civil War. I really enjoyed that movie last night. It was good to see Black Panther properly for the first time. He seemed tougher than most of the others.

I could gush about how much I love the character of Blank Panther. I think he came across much better in Civil War than he did in his own film power wise.

I wish the bad guys were better in the Avengers movies. Assemble and Ultron had very forgettable final fights.

There have only been...3 or 4 good villains in all of the MCU. However 2 of them are so damn good they are some of the best ever.But primarily the villains are loose reasons to have a movie.
