You definitely should. It’s not as bad as the chauvinist repugnicans suggest. Special fx are just so good now and there are some solid performances. Brie Larson just isn’t one of them. I think she tried to pull off a amnesiac haze portrayal but it comes off as kinda weak acting. Not as well done as Gal GaWow! but her accent helped with the fish out of water bit

Gal would have been a much better Captain Marvel than Brie.

Brie could have gave an absolute perfect performance and the movie still would have been kind of crappy. Her performance isn't the reason that the script sucked.

The main character can absolutely lift a movie out of shit. The last 2 Iron Mans, Thor, Captain America, Doctor Strange were all very formulaic and I don’t think had scripts that really stood out, but the lead actors in all of those movies absolutely killed it.

Brie Larson did not. If she had, I think the movie could have been pretty damn good.

I don't see the comparison as being valid at all. They killed it in large part because the characters were written well. No one could have saved Captain Boring's character because she was written in such a confusing and forgettable way. It would be impossible to describe her personality right now because she was written all over the place.

She was stoic and proud - Captain America
She was brash and arrogant - Thor
She was quippy and silly - Iron Man
She was sarcastic and bitter - Doctor Strange

She was a mess. It will be interesting to see whether the Russo's can salvage her. Some characters they've done a great job of taking care of - the Guardians, Spider-Man, Thor but others they've really dropped the ball with - Hulk, Vision who Whedon actually did really well, Wanda.

Ok I see what you’re saying now. I do agree, she was written poorly.

Captain Marvel is in the Ant-Man tier of MCU for me. I would never pay to see it, but I'll download it for free months later and skip through most of it.
You never liked me, probably don't like me still, but a ***** liking me aint never paid my bills

I think Ant Man is pretty underrated.

His goofy schtick just plays far better in an Avengers type supporting role than his own franchise to me. No real complaints about the character or movie, it just can’t stand up to Iron Man, Thor, Capt America, or the GOTG ensemble.

To me Ant Man is in the same vein as Thor 1 and 2, Iron Man 2 and 3. But yeah, as a character he isn’t as interesting as the core 3.


Edit: Thor 2 is actually trash, didn’t mean to lump that movie in with the others.

I played around with it while spamming the answers - it just worked for me three times in a row when I went to https://sorta.app" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and then clicked MCU quiz as opposed to going via the direct link I posted on page 1.

I'm not sure if mobile v desktop has any impact as I've had it both work and not work on both now. But I think the way I described should work.

I think I preferred infinity war to ragnarok but the rest looks pretty accurate.

Glad you were able to complete it, it's a pretty cool way to build a ranking.

I couldn't remember enough about each movie to rank them correctly. Iron Man 2 vs Iron Man 3? Uhh, one had doctor octopus, the other had a scene with like 20 iron man suits fighting (either for the good guys or against them, I can't remember).

I have some recency bias and was very indifferent about a lot of these (va each other) but here’s my list...

I think I enjoyed the Incredible Hulk a lot more than others.
