Anyone who has yet to see Avengers : Endgame, do your best to avoid spoilers!
That applies to everyone in this thread who has already seen it!
Excluding Endgame, what are everyone's top 3 MCU movies and why?
1. Iron Man. Bit of a nostalgia pick, I was only about 12-13 when I saw it at the movies with my cousins. Robert Downey Jr was perfectly cast and Iron Man is still my favourite Avenger. It's one of the few I enjoy re-watching.
2. Thor Ragnarok. Take a bow Taika blimmin Waititi. I already knew his humour well and was very pleased to see it shine in Ragnarok. And if you've seen Taika's other work you know he handles the sad and serious well too. Just an absolute joy to watch.
3. Black Panther/Captain Marvel. Maybe it's recency, maybe it's that they're somewhat removed from the Avengers quagmire. Some interesting ideas raised too, Killmonger in the museum for example. Reminded me in a way of 'The Man Who Lost His Head', an NZ/UK comedy drama about repatriation of a Maori relic. It was also nice to see a fresh take on Nick Fury. But I'd say Black Panther just takes it.
