Pieter Boelen 740 Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 So... Why make an Inhumans TV show on ABC when there pretty much has already been one? It's called Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arpy 4,145 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I would place Ant-Man above all of the Avengers films - including Civil War (which should be called Avengers 3: Civil War). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 That film is so boring. I think there's literally one interesting scene in it and I can't even recall that right now. At least Thor 2 had Hopkins and Loki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's Ant-man, Iron Man 1 & 2, Thor 1, and Incredible Hulk? As I said in some other thread recently, I still haven't seen Ant-Man! I plan to remedy that soon. And the movies are ranked with 1 being my favorite. I've noticed my preferences for these films don't always align with others, no idea why. I really dislike the first two Iron Man movies, but I like the second Thor a lot. I dunno, like I said, they're all pretty light movies generally for me.

I literally don't remember anything about it other than Tony Stark shows up at the end. Didn't he have a love interest (Liv Tyler?) that they don't even mention anymore, and had him randomly fall in love with Black Widow instead?

mstrox 6,647 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Granted, it's been something like 13 years since I saw the movie, but I remember the acting to be uncharismatic and the back half of the movie being nearly incomprehensible. Lee's comic-booky editorial choices were inspired, but in the end it was kind of a big fart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IM3 is not a great movie, even within the MCU, and I would also rank Thor 2 ahead of it. The thing that strikes me as interesting about the list is the top 5 are basically the most recent movies (with the exception of the lovable Ant-Man). I'm also heartened to see the love for Captain America, whose solo franchise has now far exceeded Iron Man, who, outside of his first movie, has never recaptured the same level of quality.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I said they're getting better at what they do. Not what you wish they did. I enjoy the way the movies feel cut from the same cloth, while still having movies like Doctor Strange and Guardians 2 that feel very distinct IMO. To me, the MCU has successfully replicated what the comics are like in film form. Once 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 The only recent one I missed was Doctor Strange. They're still keeping me entertained. Oddly, I do not have a strong desire to see the new Guardians film either, which I keep going back and forth on whether I want to spend theater dollars on it. I really liked the first one though. I'm just not getting a great vibe from the reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 People complaining about them being homogeneous or disposable are clearly not comics readers. Much like happens in comics, they'll keep making them like this until audience interest begins to lag and then *BANG* a "new 52" style reboot of the entire universe! It's actually pretty unique what Marvel Studios has accomplished. Obviously, it's not for everyone, but it's also insanely popular so people feel they have to have an opinion.
