The "my review card already has 10s" comment has me curious. There are some very obvious duds in the MCU, but I was wondering whether you, as a fan, are willing to look past their flaws because of the world-building they offer.
Rather than explicitly state these, however, I was hoping for your opinion. What are the five worst MCU movies?
I believe I made that comment... but I'm too lazy to go back and look.
While I don't personally think any of the Marvel MCU Movies were "bad movies" there are a few that certainly lower the bar for all the rest. The majority of those came in Phase 1. So in the order of release, these are the bottom 3:
The Hulk
Iron Man2
Thor: TDW
and to round out a bottom 5, these next 2 are just more forgettable than the rest:
Iron Man 3
Avengers AOU
Now if I were to pick a bottom 2 out of each phase....
Phase 1:
Hulk
IM2
Phase 2:
IM3
Thor: TDW
Phase 3:
Doctor Strange
(TBD)
Hmmm...I still wouldn't day bad, just not good. Idk, maybe it is bad and my fanboyism won't allow me to admit it.
I wasn't invested in the Madarin as a character from the comics, so I actually enjoyed the twist, and knowing that they "retconned" it to leave an opening for an actual Mandarin, is all good in my book.
Especially if the same actor comes back to reprise the role and somehow become the actual Mandarin through some magic rings ****.
