Guardians of the Galaxy 1, it’s a good movie, but its what I believe started the “well that happened” marvel dialogue, because the other movies couldn’t capture that charm of it.
It was different, but it was well received, so Marvel has been implementing its comedy in all movies since GotG1 unsuccessfully instead of keeping to the more serious with some slight funny dialogue in it.
I asked a buddy of mine, if he could recommend only one movie from either Marvel or DC for me to watch, which one would it be? He said GotG. I watched it and loved it, bought the video game, made my husband watch it, who also loved it.
Haven’t seen many, but when I tried rewatching iron man 2 if felt disjointed and tonally weird. And love and thunder was disjointed as well. Not a marvel movie fan at all though.
probably ant man, as well as any film that prominantly features ant man as a character. the sci-fi nonsense justification of his powers is just way too stupid for me, and it taints everything it touches.
I only saw Endgame and I thought it was okay. So I would say it’s my least favorite and that’s because it’s the only one I’ve seen. I guess it’s also my favorite.
Oh wow. I can’t imagine going into Endgame completely blind. Had you read the comics at least? Or was it just an ensemble of weird characters with powers fighting each other and travelling through time?
This is a quite delayed response, but it was essentially your second question. I went with friends who watched a lot of the MCU movies and they were trying to explain everything to me in real time. I eventually just asked them to save their breath because the backstory was so long. I did enjoy the spectacle of the movie, though the impact was lost on me.
Hello friend! I see you in !comicbooks all the time!
Unfortunately (you know me lol) I just can’t get into Marvel stuff at all even though I wish I could.
I believe I’d have to go with Guardians of The Galaxy (II IIRC, the one with the prison scene) specifically because of Uncle Lloyd Kaufman’s non-speaking cameo lmao, and that’s the only reason.
Wait I missed a word lol. I guess my answer is kind of “all of them” in that case. I haven’t seen many of them, too, to make a fair comparison.
Far from Home or whatever it’s called. I haven’t seen it. It irks me so bad that I haven’t seen it. Definitely the worst Marvel movie until I see it. Fucking hate that movie. Or rather, you know, indifferent. god
After Endgame I think only the spider-man one’s are okay. I stopped watching the rest because I’m pretty fed up with the MCU and going by all their business decisions lately I highly doubt I’d like any of the new content.
I want more movies like Logan, hyper realistic down to earth heroes. Let Denis Villeneuve direct one.
Unfortunately the MCU model is that director vision is cast aside in favour of producer input. It’s why Eternals looks like an artistic Chloe Zhao film, but is a muddled mess of a story. We were deprived of an Edgar Wright Ant-Man film for the same reason
But seriously, my wife and I watched all of the Marvel movies in release order from Iron Man through Infinity War. I watched a sone of Endgame and turned it off after a bit. Sounds like we made the right choice.
We also stopped Game of Thrones after season 7 episode 4, which appears to be the ideal place to stop to maintain good memories of the show.
I watched GoT all the way through and found it disappointing. However I’m now doing a rewatch and enjoying it. Looking back, the first season is less creative than I remembered. Its just played with great conviction. There are some great quotes though and the budget for sets and set pieces is amazing.
On rewatch lots of stuff i missed makes more sense now that I’m familiar with the world and characters, even knowing how it ends.
The Captain Americas. They’re so generically tropey.
I also hope Sony isn’t offended that I wasn’t a fan of the Spiderman movie I happened to be an extra in. Best eighty bucks ever earned though, I just had to walk down the street doing my thing. Even did an intentional “accidental cosplay” for all who notice.
I thought the second one was great for exactly the reason that they subverted the generic trope of good guy, bland. Then they found success with that and just repeated it ad nauseam.
Fun fact: for non-Americans, who are most of the world and the biggest contributors to box office take for MCU films, this character and premise is just goofy. The films are fun to watch in a campy sort of way, but I was surprised to hear Americans talk about them as a serious spy thriller series
