MCU Films that haven't aged well

Captain America the First Avenger has aged terribly. Although to be fair, I found it very cringy and laughable even when I watched it back in 2011, so...

Age of Ultron, Ragnarök, Civil War & Black panther

90% of their movies are medicore and age terribly

Why?

Well the only MCU I have rewatched, parts of them anyway, are the first Iron Man and Captain America movies but I thought they were still good. They are among the few MCU movies I liked a lot.

Avengers: Endgame.

The Avengers.

Guardians of the Galaxy.

Iron-Man 3.

Black Panther.

Really??

@modernww2fare: Yes. It's one of the most overrated MCU films. I'd rate it a 7/10 only due to the great final battle. It has zero rewatch value and it's boring as hell.

I too would be lying if I said I wanted to watch it again.

@modernww2fare: I've seen it already four times. I was bored 3 times out of 4.

Na, incredible hulk was my childhood. I used to rewatch the Abom/Hulk fight all the time it was like my fave thing

Let's face it. Most of them age about as well as VFX does, which is to say not all that well.

QFT

The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, and Thor: The Dark World.

Tbh Endgame. When I look now it's wasted potential.

Age of Ultron. Talk about wasted potential.

Ngl most new stuff today (phase 4) was wasted, but in the past? None really

Why do you think that? I respect your opinion cause I prefer Infinity war, Civil war And No way home over it sorta.

Incredible Hulk (minus the final battle)

The maximoff in age of ultron HATED THEM

Far from home

Captain marvel.

Pretty much any movie in Phase 1 except for IM and IM2.

Avengers (2012)

• Iron Man 1-2
• Ant Man 2
• Thor 1-2
• Captain Marvel
• Avengers 1-3
• Captain America 1
• Spider-Man 1
• I'm also pretty sure Black Panther is not going to age well. There's going to come a time where people start saying "They threw in a token white guy and treated him like garbage" never mind the other issues the movie suffers from (none of which are related to Chadwick's performance, the dude sold his role well just Like Jordan did, they're storyboarding issues)
• I guess Hulk...but is that even an MCU movie? It's hard to tell...afaik there's like...1 thing that carried over - and it was a deleted scene where Norton tries to eat a bullet.

MCU has a LOT of not so great movies coming at it from a current perspective but it also has some heavy hitters like Thor 3, The Infinity War saga, etc.

Because it felt like a nostalgia trip after the second watch and it's not rewatchable, unlike Infinity War.

They all aged very well. The ones that were hated when they came out become less hated overtime.

People will most likely still watch earlier MCU movies in 2030 and enjoy them. I almost never heard people said MCU movies don't age well outside of comicvine.

Thor ragnarok and Black Panther

I’d say Incredible Hulk, Thor and Captain America: The first Avenger are the three with the weakest CGI, which hasn’t held up brilliantly. But then that makes sense because they didn’t have the budget of later MCU Movies.

In terms of cinematography and choreography the Avengers, Thor and Captain America: the first Avenger are three which haven’t aged very well, more modern MCU films are much nicer to look at and have better action sequences.

In terms of content, obviously Incredible Hulk because a lot of those characters such as Betty and the Leader didn’t go anywhere and Banner was recast, and Iron man a little bit because of the Rodey recasting. Also Iron man 3 because that whole villain plot was made a joke of and then done properly by Shang-Chi and him destroying all his armours was immediately retconned in Age of Ultron.

But overall I’d say they’ve aged very well. I can happily watch through them again without any of them feeling particularly dated.

In terms of in the future, I think films like Black Panther and Captain Marvel that provoke a strong political message may not age well in the future as times move on, and will probably end up a bit cringy. But that’s about it, most are fairly generic but well made action flicks that can be enjoyed whenever.

The visual effects work for Thor 1 was actually pretty on point most of the time.

Every scene on Asgards looks downright beautiful IMO.

The Avengers 2012 look like a CW TV show

In my opinion:

• Avengers 2012 (in terms of production value, and CGI).

• First Avenger

• Iron Man 2

No Way Home already aged poorly:

Multiverse of Madness and Love and thunder

* The Incredible Hulk (2008)

* The Avengers (2012)

* Iron Man 3 (2013)

* Thor: The Dark World (2018)

Thor Ragnarok for me.

Black Widow lmfaoo

Black Widow's movie doesn't really contain CGI

@darkrealm: It does and it looked like shit. Especially Yelena’s cringe death fake out lmaooo.

4/10 film

What?

@darkrealm: When she was gonna sacrifice herself for Nat but it turns out she survives. When she jams her baton into an explosive in the final act.

Oh lord that looked fake and it didn’t help that it had a terrible storyline
