MCU - First Era Ranked.

This list will comprise of the first era of MCU movies, ending when Phase 3 ends. I felt it only right to make it its own era, and make this list distinct from the next. I will probably reupload this list.

List items

  • Everything I could want in a comic book movie. Great pacing, great story, great action, great characterization... just great. This is one of the few comic book movies that manage to feel like a comic book in every positive way.

  • This is the best Avengers movie, and it gives me hope for Infinity War. It has the great plot and great characterization that the Avengers movies lack. A bit cluttered, yes, but it still managed to have some great scenes with some great dialogue between the "minor" characters.

  • The one that started it all, and it's still a solid movie. There's very little negativity I can give this movie.

  • This movie gets a lot more negativity than it deserves. I still really like this movie, and I do prefer Norton to Ruffalo. I like the plot, I like the villains, and I kinda like the musical score for some reason.

  • I had to think about this one. As cheesy as it can be at times, I think it works really well for the movie. It has its heart-felt moments and its cliche comic book movies - and those moments do well to pay homage to the Golden Age.

  • While it suffers from a bad villain, it is overall a very good movie. It also sets up Baron Mordo, who I think has potential to be a great villain.

  • I may appear to only like serious stuff, but sometimes, you need some genuine fun - and that's this. While the villain was poorly handled, this was still a good team movie.

  • I enjoyed this movie, but it still feels hallow to me. I wish there was a little less Sci-Fi and a little more fantasy, but eh. It's still okay, and Loki was a genuinely sympathetic character (and this is the only movie in which Loki is a good character).

  • ... eh? What can I say: it did something incredible by combining this characters... and that's... it. It's not a particularly good movie once you get past that.

  • Pretty good movie. I want to rank it higher, but I like the above movies more. But this does have one of the best MCU villains.

  • Scott Lang was the first part. Hope, Ghost, Hank, and Goliath were great.

  • This isn't a bad movie. It just... didn't do much for me. I don't know why. It's okay, but not great beyond the visuals.

  • Had a lot of bad, and... one or two decent scenes. But overall, the bad certainly outweighed the good.

  • Jokes. Jokes. Jokes. This movie is the joke. The redeeming factor, for me, was the villain, Yondu, and Nebula's growth.

  • All of the negative aspects of the first Avengers without the "Wow" factor. Bad villain, poor characterization... just a waste.

  • Really, you saw it coming. This is, by far, the worst of the series. It doesn't need to exist. It introduces the most boring Black Widow in the series; thankfully, she only got better from here.

  • Hey, remember what I said about wanting less Sci-Fi? Nobody was listening. Laser guns, black hole grenades... eh. Just not a very good movie - and it has possibly the worst villain in the MCU.

For me (AND my kids) Civil war takes the Number 1 spot.

My number 2 (and only by the skin off my teeth) is Guardians of the Galaxy. LOVED the comedy the best attempt of it in ANY Marvel Film " Nothing goes over my head, my reflexes are ........."

more or less agree with this. Although I can't say i like TFA all that much. I definitely like Ant man more then TFA, also wasn't that huge a fan of avengers 1 either surprisingly. Glad to see you gave the incredible hulk some love though. I personally like edward norton as bruce, but ruffalo does a solid job too.

@higorm:

Thor had a story. Avengers relied on its uniqueness.

I honestly thought Ant Man was going to be one. Have yet to see Civil War but the rest of the list seems fine

It's not part of the MCU, unless he wants to do a Fox-verse ranking as well.
