Well, everyone has an opinion and an opinion is like...

MY OPINION:

I love comic book movies and the Marvel movies are great!

I even liked the DC movies although you sure can tell the difference—Marvel is of a higher quality.

In any case, some are better than others, but even the lesser ones are pretty good. You can find things to complain about in ANY production. Unless it is a fantasy flick I really hate to utterly suspend disbelief. There needs to be some plausibility in SciFi.

So, I’ll have to disagree with you on Marvel.

I would rank them as follows:

1. Captain America: Civil War —My personal favorite because the takeover of SHIELD by Hydra was EXCELLENT—explains so much. Reminds me of the takeover of Wash DC by the Swamp/Deep State/RINO/GOPe/Clinton Machine.

2. Guardians Of the Galaxy 1

3. Deadpool

4. Thor: Ragnorok — Still playing, get yerself to the theater!

5. Ironman 1

6. Dr. Strange

7. Avengers 1

8. Thor 1

9. Capt America 1

10. Ironman 2

11. Guardians Of the Galaxy 2

12. Avengers 2

13. Spiderman Homecoming

14. Ironman 3

15. Thor 2

16. Antman

Beyond that, I’m a big fan of the X-Men franchise. Days of the Future Past was awesome!

DC Movies - I like them, but some parts are really stupid. The ‘Martha’ bit was pathetic and worthy of ridicule. Aflac as Batman is horrid. IMHO, he’s just not that good of an actor, frankly. The story is still good, but wish they picked someone else.

Wonder Woman was excellent except the villain was portrayed as a Nazi before Nazi’s even existed. My opinion of WWI was that Britain and France were as much to blame as Imperial Germany. The Austrian beef with Serbia was just. The USA would sure as hell done the same; see Afghanistan for proof.

Honestly I stopped watched them after Civil War. One of the worst stories in comics became one of the worst marvel movies. Looking back I think I only liked them because I really liked the comics as a kid.
First Guardians movie was really fun but I turned the second one off half way into watching it.
I don’t think they have gotten worse but its really just the same stuff over and over with different costumes. I guess I just got bored with them.

Did you see Logan? It was dark but one of the finest movies of the franchise. And if you liked The Last of Us it was the movie version of the game:-)

None of that Marvel garbage even comes close to Watchmen ( which wasn’t even great either ) Guardians of the Galaxy 1 was pretty good. The rest is crap

I'm not a big movie watcher but I've seen CA1 and Deadpool.

Although CA1 was enjoyable, I loved Deadpool and its dry humor - absolutely hilarious.

Plus, Morena Baccarin is stunningly classy, REALLY, REALLY hot...and could have been an identical twin to a woman I was deeply involved with many moons ago.
