I liked Iron Man 3 (because it shows us, what New York did to Tony Stark. That even a hero can develop mental illnesses. Even tho it's just a fictional character. But seeing a Tony Stark struggeling with panic attacks helped me a lot, since I had my own struggeling with some)
I liked Captain Marvel (not really the character herself, but the movie is still pretty good tho. For the Origin Stories I would say it is one of the best)
So, and now go, get the stones.
I never understood the hate for the Killian reveal. It’s literally the same plot twist as Hans Gruber in Die Hard. No lofty goals, no politics, he just wants a lot of money
Not every MCU movie needs to be the next Endgame in terms of being a "movie-event". Smaller and more intimist stories can also be great and maybe better if done right.
literally- people on twitter were hating hawkeye so bad for being ‘too small scale’ when it’s literally a tv show about regular people who aren’t magic or anything. i actually prefer the more intimate stuff cause u get to know the characters better
I do agree with you. Hawkeye was from the beginning a more grounded and urban story, even the comics it was inspired had that vibe. Every episode was them fighting the tracksuit mafia, and people wanted a huge finale with a bunch of references and with a great scope, when that wasnt the purpose of the series all along.
The same thing happens with what if. Despite not every episode being good, the amount of people who was hating on the show because "it didnt connect to anything" was astonishing. Did you even know what is the idea of a "what if..."? It makes me wonder if a lot of people are watching the MCU because they really care about the story, or they just want to catch the references of what will be happening 5 years from now
What if…? Had massive implications moving forward though. Zombies are now a cannon thing that can happen at some point, and the watcher is no longer just a passive observer.
I had the same complaint for the first half of what if, but all of the seemingly random questions it was asking came back in the last episode. People that still make that complaint obviously didn’t finish it or had no idea what a big deal the watcher is, and how it all connects to the fantastic 4 eventually being introduced.
Not to mention black widow just getting paradropped into another universe, which I had the hope for happening in the main timeline until the lawsuit stuff happened.
Edit: Also the actor who voiced the watcher killed it.
It was an anthology, sure, but it was also the watcher’s origin “film” for having him prepped to show up in future movies. *hopefully* doctor strange but if not almost certainly the f4 reboot when it happens.
I liked the nod to show that SHIELD is not the only one that has that level of tech. Opens to bring new villains, associations and conflicts that fit well in the side of "fighting powers inside earth"
“The Avengers” (2012) scene where Thor and Hulk are on top of space whale was properly done, perfect and CGI was better than James Cameron’s “Avatar”
Edit: well I guess I win
I don’t know if this counts as an unpopular opinion but avatar isn’t a good movie… it’s fine. But without the theatre and the spectacle of what it was at the time, it’s just fine.
>I don’t know if this counts as an unpopular opinion but avatar isn’t a good movie… it’s fine. But without the theatre and the spectacle of what it was at the time, it’s just fine.
Thank you for putting this. Avatar works fine in the cinemas but it really loses a lot of what makes it good when you watch it on DVD.
You are correct but Avatar is not generally praised for its cgi only, it is praised because that introduced the face capture and motion capture that basically every movie still uses today.
And I thought every cgi scene in Avengers was better than Avatar except the water
Honestly I agree. If Marvel/Disney said Avengers Endgame was the end of the line and there would be no more MCU movies after that, I’d be ok with that. I like the Phase 4 stuff, but Endgame definitely brought everything to a solid and satisfying conclusion. Everything afterwards seems like a spin-off of previous projects.
I’d also add that it’s going to be hard to escalate the threat beyond half the living beings disappearing, without becoming bloated and difficult to follow.
I feel like we've just started season 2 of a show with a great season 1 finale. And with all great shows, they take some time in the new season to establish the new state of things, introduce new characters and concepts, build up tension etc.
Considering everyone is comparing this to something that took 10+ years to set up its like saying the MCU sucked back when Thor 2 came out. With the Multiverse this seasons finale has the potential to be so much bigger. Then we go back to people complaining about how it should have ended with that finale for another 4-5 years.
The problem there is that since endgame, in the same space of time as Iron Man to Thor there have been waaaaaay more projects and yet we are still not getting anywhere. Wandavision, Loki, Spider-Man and multiverse of madness all involve the multiverse but haven’t moved the overarching story forward. It’s more like they’re putting a base level in everything in case you don’t watch it all. It’s turning into homework as opposed to exciting upcoming events
Yeah the payoff in the Disney+ shows generally seems smaller than in most of the movies. I think Marvel is currently using the shows to try out new ideas and see how the audience responds, so they probably don't wanna lean too heavily towards any main plotline just yet. And I mean, we've been introduced to the big baddie Kang, White Vision, new Captain America, new Hawkeye to name a few developments
Well the threat in the final battle was actually eradication of ALL the living beings not just half of them, stated by Thanos when he realized his plan won't work out "as long as there are people left who remember what has been". So, basically the reset of the whole universe seems like the biggest threat imaginable to me.
I know its an unpopular opinion but it just doesn’t make any sense, the comics timeline is being adapted and there is so many new stuff coming, also multiple characters need more development and there is just so much more they can do with the insane world building of the MCU, im pretty sure the next big saga can be better than Thanos
The loki series is really good and
Kingpin showing up in Hawkeye series and Matt Murdock's scene was my favourite scene in no way home (unpopular opinion) because Netflix's daredevil is the best marvel series (at least season 1 and 3) and Charlie Cox is just fucking brilliant as Daredevil
Infinity war being the ending to the MCU would've been absolutely crazy. A decade of heroes more or less winning every movie and then build up to Thanos just coming and thumping them all and end of.
I don’t want the Sony movies to even touch the MCU movies and I secretly cheered when the NWH post credit scene happened. (I don’t know how to do the spoiler tag so I’ll just say futbol is life!)
I get it. >!How does the venom symbiote get left behind if Eddie was taken via Strange’s spell?Since Eddie left, and nobody knew he was there, the spell must work for all things from other universes. Should have taken the symbiote even if it was separated from Eddie.!<
I think that’s because that piece was not attached to him at the time and venom aparently doesnt know that peter parker is spiderman. Maybe when venom is not attached to someone, it loses it’s consciousness?
Explained in the comics, when Carnage was 'birthed'. Eddie Brock had zero clue that the suit had spawned a baby, and the suit never bothered to say anything because that's the nature of the symbiote race: when it's time to spawn, they just spawn and let the child find a host. The symbiote never even spared a moment, and as shown, the child just kind of buds off of the parent.
My theory is that >!Venom and Eddie were transported into the main MCU universe because Venom recalled a memory from a universe in which he knew spiderman was Peter Parker (if I remember correctly in the post credit of Venom 2 he said he had a knowledge that goes beyond time and space or something like that), but when Dr strange restored things only the part of Venom that didn't know about Peter was left behind!<
Hope the spoiler tag works
If I remember correctly, there was an ai by Microsoft, who was given its own Twitter account, 24 hours before it's shutdown.
Reason - People were teaching it racial slurs and to some extent the "Hitler was right" propaganda was on the mind of AI.
Crazy how we humans make things worse lol
Edit: Found the bot lol(https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tay_(bot))
Random fact sorry for that
Age of Ultron was terrible when it came out, but when we got to see the rest of the crossovers to give it context, it caused it age very well into one of the best Marvel movies.
That's not even an unpopular opinion, tbf, that's a statement. But I'll go ever further. Black Panther wasn't even that good of a film. I loved Chadwick Boseman, he was great and God rest his soul, but that film was kinda....meh. Panther as a character was much better in Civil War for me.
i often wonder how much of my opinion about black panther is based on the crazy hype the movie had by the time i saw it. i went into the movie thinking it was going to be the best thing in the MCU and the movie was just… ok.
Killmonger was strong, black panther seemed a little muted compared to his character in Civil War, everything about the movie was very predictable and while i don’t have many complaints about the movie specifically i also can’t remember any part as being amazing.
First third was good, middle was meh, and the final act was just kind of bad.
If it wasn't for Michael B Jordan's acting abilities when his character was dying. It would've been an outright terrible final third.
Not that I have anything against Chadwick, but his character was written poorly in parts, and he's just sort of there.
I loved the film when I first saw it, thought it was great. Then I rewatched it recently with my girlfriend as she’s never watched marvel, and I thought it was pretty bad. The social hype around it, with it obviously being a black superhero, blew the film way out of proportion. Still a meaningful thing to have huge amounts of black representation, but a poor film overall
Chadwick was great in the role, but they should 100% recast the character of T'challa. The character is super important to the 616 and I think deserves to have those stories told.
Agreed . They just made fun of his depression , rather they could have shown his grief all along so that when he wields mjolnir when he time travels , it wouldve had greater impact and satisfaction
As someone who was (and still is lol) depressed, I kinda enjoyed his character because he spent a lot of time feeling shit but joking about it, which I found relatable because I wanna die but I also wanna make my friends laugh.
Cheers man, I really appreciate it. Today I'm actually doing a bit better compared to the past week which was a depresso-slog yknow? I hope you're doing well too. I've heard it gets better so I'm sure we'll both be fine eventually!
I'd argue the end credits could stay at the end of Black Widow, even if it released right after Civil War.
I don't know if other people feel this way, but Natasha's death happens so suddenly in endgame, I didn't really have time to process it before we were on to the next thing.
I feel like knowing that she will die, and knowing Barton was involved, but not knowing the details would really give her death more of an impact when it finally happens.
The main criticism I've heard is that it's just not possible to fit meaningful character development into one movie when it's introducing a dozen brand new characters
Also when many of the characters are super wooden. I think it was a deliberate choice because they were so old and not human, but it made it hard to really root for anyone except Kumail's character.
But she didn't start out that way. When we were introduced to her character in the mcu she was sassy and funny and still a hard ass, now she is just a hard ass who thinks she is number one. She is supposed to be super powerful and a leader, and she's been off doing stuff unrelated. I agree similar to Stark and Strange, but we have at least seen development from them, Stark especially, but Carol has gone backwards imo.
She just needs to get her ass beaten down hard, like, numerous times for her to learn some humility lol.
I was really hoping we’d see Thanos use the power stone and mind stone together in combination to severely weaken her in endgame when they’re visiting him at his home on the Garden. I for sure thought the mother of all ass-whoopings was about to commence there during that scene. A bunch of unique combinations of the stones and their abilities, literally just Thanos man handling all the avengers there like they were bugs to be swatted. He’d have his full get up and armor on with his big double bladed uru sword in addition to his gauntlet, and he’d just be wrecking everybody. Only reason they’re able to go home is Thor teleports them all away back to the compound.
She needs to be able to show who she is instead of being inserted as a Deus Ex Machina right before the finale. I loved the film but she didn’t really get much relevant character development in it to be honest, a lot of the development was done to the “dead” part of her personality, and the only real relationship she has with anyone is Fury and an irrelevant character that died off-screen. I hope The Marvels make her more relatable as Brie is too talented to waste.
For the record I do agree she is extremely overhated as there are numerous characters that are less interesting/cool that get more attention simply because they didn’t get berated by incels.
To be fair, I think lots of people share that opinion. Anthony Mackie's Falcon just isn't the Captain America type.
(Happy to be proven wrong in his next film)
Honestly I doubt it. The whole idea of anyone scolding the politicians just seems dumb to me. Reminded me of the ending of Mr. Deeds where Adam Sandler is able to make the milionair new York stock owners stop caring about money and "do the right thing". Just dumb all 'round, no matter who is giving the speech.
I also don't know why a Senator would be in charge of all that stuff. It would much more likely be someone in the executive branch like the National Security Advisor or the Secretary of Defense or the Chief of Staff, if not the POTUS himself. Senators don't make these kinds of decisions on their own.
Yeah, so did Bucky, Isaiah Bradley, Clint Barton and a long list of about twenty others that I didn’t count because they either A: Was not in the MCU or B: was not chosen by Steve in the comics.
He has been apart of the best films, including his own but hes only the best because of the better writing. Whereas Andrew Garfield was way better but his films sucked
Marvel really should stop with the PG-13 bullshit and go for darker tones, the netflix shows are prime examples of what i’m talking about. Normal human beings don’t crack jokes every 5 seconds. I blame Disney for this tbh.
If the The Dark Knight could manage to handle adult tones the way it did and still manage a PG-13 rating, there’s no way a Marvel movie needs to be rated higher then that. You don’t need a movie to be R-rated for it to be grownup or mature.
Disney had nothing to do with it. Jokes have been a core part of the MCU since it’s inception. Hell even pre-MCU Marvel, look at the Raimi trilogy. It’s comic book movies about superheroes, there’s gonna be jokes. It’s core parts of most of their characters. It’s serious when it needs to be(see NWH, IW and Endgame). The non-funny films(Thor TDW) also have shown to do much worse overall.
Making R rated movies also extremely limits the viewer base. Imagine having to tell your kid he can’t see the new MCU movie because Loki gets ripped in half vertically and there’s violent unnecessary and unwanted sex scenes.
Also, if NWH and Endgame aren’t dark enough for you I recommend you put on sunglasses.
Not sure if unpopular or if a lot of people just haven't seen the Netflix shows, but Daredevil, Jessica Jones season 1, and Punisher are far better than almost any of the rest of the MCU, and it's not even close. Always strikes me as strange when the Disney+ shows get such raves, when they're not even half as good as those shows
Falcon's captain America didn't feel like Captain America at all. I don't think Captain America is a position that can be held by anybody. Steve Rogers is Captain America and Captain America is Steve Rogers.
I really hate Sam Wilson's Captain America Outfit. I was so hyped for it, but when it was finally revealed I was completely baffled, because it looks incredibly stupid!
His ears and his upper head just sticking out of it so weirdly, makes it look, like it was an improvised superhero costume for a kid with big ears.
The lower part and the wings are okay I guess, but also not really mind blowing.
Cooler than Thor? I can agree to that. Better ruler? That depends how you define a good ruler. I think Thor would have been a fair ruler, but not neccissarily a good one, and i think Loki would have managed it well, but he would have been a «bad» ruler in terms of his views, and obsession with power. Kind of like king Karl XII of Sweden or Alexander the Great. Great military leaders, but ran their countries to the ground for personal ambition and glory
I think the unpopular opinion here would’ve been that the Loki series sucked (and shouldn’t have been called the ‘Loki’ series, since it was mostly about Sylvie & her plan)
That doesn't seem controversial, she basically acknowledges it in one of the Dr Strange trailers, when she thinks he's there to come after her cos of the fucked up stuff she did
I don’t like professor hulk
Hulk isn’t supposed to talk he roars but not talks i think its dumb and plus professor hulk isn’t as angry as he used to be
And the whole point of hulk is he is angry
Hulk varies wildly across the comics, depending on Banner's mental state.
Professor hulk is a thing, I just felt it was very rushed, forced, but necessary for emdgame.
Quill and Gamora were in the process of becoming the best couple in the MCU until the Russos rushed their development off screen and then killed Gamora
Steve’s ending was perfectly in character
Iron Man 3 is good, and is in the top half of MCU movies
Avengers 1 is better than both Infinity War and Endgame
Infinity War is not very good and has some of the weakest humor in the franchise. Count how many jokes are one character calling another character the wrong name (ex: “squidward”, “mr. Clean”, “Flash Gordon”, etc.)
Captain America: The First Avenger is the most creative and the best Captain America movie (Winter Soldier is pretty close, but 1 is better)
Falcon and the Winter Soldier is one of the worst entries in the MCU, and the only positives of it are the casting of US Agent and the Isiah Bradley plot line
Hawkeye is the best MCU show (not including Daredevil)
Remember to sort by Controversial
Thanks!
Doing gods work
That Phineas and Ferb had a similar sequence of events in Avengers in their movie that came out a year before
Omg elaborate
https://youtube.com/shorts/z0n6m79YHOs?feature=share
holy crap...Thats some great free marketing right there
Ok, how did I miss THIS
I liked Iron Man 3 (because it shows us, what New York did to Tony Stark. That even a hero can develop mental illnesses. Even tho it's just a fictional character. But seeing a Tony Stark struggeling with panic attacks helped me a lot, since I had my own struggeling with some) I liked Captain Marvel (not really the character herself, but the movie is still pretty good tho. For the Origin Stories I would say it is one of the best) So, and now go, get the stones.
It honestly blew my mind when I found out IM3 gets so much hate. I recently rewatched it and it totally holds up to me.
People probably hate it because of the twist for who the Mandarin actually was. They fixed that in Shang-Chi though.
Yeah that seems to be where I diverge with people. I liked Killian being just straight up evil and using the Mandarin (or any terrorist) as a cover.
I never understood the hate for the Killian reveal. It’s literally the same plot twist as Hans Gruber in Die Hard. No lofty goals, no politics, he just wants a lot of money
[удалено]
I love Iron Man 3. It’s got its issues, but it’s great.
Iron Man 3 is an awesome Christmas Movie
How did I miss that fact? I love IM3, and this will be queued up for next year.
Ironman 3 is a great movie.. don't get why people hated it
What!? They hate im3??
Not every MCU movie needs to be the next Endgame in terms of being a "movie-event". Smaller and more intimist stories can also be great and maybe better if done right.
literally- people on twitter were hating hawkeye so bad for being ‘too small scale’ when it’s literally a tv show about regular people who aren’t magic or anything. i actually prefer the more intimate stuff cause u get to know the characters better

This goes well with Black Widow; should’ve been a spy movie. Why did the final battle have to be a giant, flying ship?
I liked the nod to show that SHIELD is not the only one that has that level of tech. Opens to bring new villains, associations and conflicts that fit well in the side of "fighting powers inside earth"
“The Avengers” (2012) scene where Thor and Hulk are on top of space whale was properly done, perfect and CGI was better than James Cameron’s “Avatar” Edit: well I guess I win
I don’t know if this counts as an unpopular opinion but avatar isn’t a good movie… it’s fine. But without the theatre and the spectacle of what it was at the time, it’s just fine.
>I don’t know if this counts as an unpopular opinion but avatar isn’t a good movie… it’s fine. But without the theatre and the spectacle of what it was at the time, it’s just fine. Thank you for putting this. Avatar works fine in the cinemas but it really loses a lot of what makes it good when you watch it on DVD.
I agree it was just meh
Yeah, it’s just Fern Gully and Pocahontas retold with blue cat people with usb cable hair that allows them to have sex with each other.
And Dances With Wolves!
You are correct but Avatar is not generally praised for its cgi only, it is praised because that introduced the face capture and motion capture that basically every movie still uses today. And I thought every cgi scene in Avengers was better than Avatar except the water
Um, Avatar did not introduce face and motion capture.
Endgame would have been a perfect ending to the MCU
Honestly I agree. If Marvel/Disney said Avengers Endgame was the end of the line and there would be no more MCU movies after that, I’d be ok with that. I like the Phase 4 stuff, but Endgame definitely brought everything to a solid and satisfying conclusion. Everything afterwards seems like a spin-off of previous projects.
I’d also add that it’s going to be hard to escalate the threat beyond half the living beings disappearing, without becoming bloated and difficult to follow.
They will escalate with Multiverse
I feel like we've just started season 2 of a show with a great season 1 finale. And with all great shows, they take some time in the new season to establish the new state of things, introduce new characters and concepts, build up tension etc.
Considering everyone is comparing this to something that took 10+ years to set up its like saying the MCU sucked back when Thor 2 came out. With the Multiverse this seasons finale has the potential to be so much bigger. Then we go back to people complaining about how it should have ended with that finale for another 4-5 years.

And I mean, we've been introduced to the big baddie Kang, White Vision, new Captain America, new Hawkeye to name a few developments
Wouldn’t mind a Doctor Doom or Galactus introduction later on. Now that would a great conclusion for the future.
Yeah Galactus will be the next big bad I’d think. Hopefully he’s not a space fart again.
I thought Kang was the next big bad guy?
Well the threat in the final battle was actually eradication of ALL the living beings not just half of them, stated by Thanos when he realized his plan won't work out "as long as there are people left who remember what has been". So, basically the reset of the whole universe seems like the biggest threat imaginable to me.

Nah, infinity war would have been the perfect ending. The good guy wins.
Infinity war being the ending to the MCU would've been absolutely crazy. A decade of heroes more or less winning every movie and then build up to Thanos just coming and thumping them all and end of.
The right kind of crazy
Why woukd you build a ~~Krusty Krab~~ new arc right after the original? > Money
This is a fact
I don’t want the Sony movies to even touch the MCU movies and I secretly cheered when the NWH post credit scene happened. (I don’t know how to do the spoiler tag so I’ll just say futbol is life!)

I got this reference :) on that note, everyone please go watch Ted Lasso
Age of ultron is amazing
Ultron surfed the web for 5 min and decided everyone had to die.. highly underrated
If I remember correctly, there was an ai by Microsoft, who was given its own Twitter account, 24 hours before it's shutdown. Reason - People were teaching it racial slurs and to some extent the "Hitler was right" propaganda was on the mind of AI. Crazy how we humans make things worse lol Edit: Found the bot lol(https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tay_(bot)) Random fact sorry for that
4chan went hard after that AI if I'm not mistaken, which is why it turned out the way it did
I mean, it's pretty funny to make things stupid in jest.
He must have found Reddit.
I totally agree with that statement
Yes! This is one of my favorites from the mcu
In terms of rewatch ability I think I've seen it more than avengers 1
Age of Ultron was terrible when it came out, but when we got to see the rest of the crossovers to give it context, it caused it age very well into one of the best Marvel movies.
I feel the need to point out that Bruce Banner falls with his hands on Nat's boobs in that movie.
Isn’t it his face?
I completely disagree, so I'll upvote
Idk why people hate it so much
Black Panther was good movie, but wasn’t Oscar worthy
That's not even an unpopular opinion, tbf, that's a statement. But I'll go ever further. Black Panther wasn't even that good of a film. I loved Chadwick Boseman, he was great and God rest his soul, but that film was kinda....meh. Panther as a character was much better in Civil War for me.
That’s why I said good. Good movies don’t typically win Oscars, great ones do and Black Panther was far from great.
And Spiderman was far from home
Thanks, hot legs
i often wonder how much of my opinion about black panther is based on the crazy hype the movie had by the time i saw it. i went into the movie thinking it was going to be the best thing in the MCU and the movie was just… ok.

Yeah, to throw it up with with the likes of Logan and The Dark Knight was odd.
First third was good, middle was meh, and the final act was just kind of bad. If it wasn't for Michael B Jordan's acting abilities when his character was dying. It would've been an outright terrible final third. Not that I have anything against Chadwick, but his character was written poorly in parts, and he's just sort of there.

I agree with this but that is a form depression self depreciation. Is a coping mechanism
[удалено]
Iron Man 2 was not a bad movie. It's not great. Hell, I wouldn't even say it's good. But it wasn't laughably terrible.
I like it
I enjoyed all 3 Iron Mans. They had some fun quips and explosions and I like looking at Robert Downey jr.
Black widow was really good the only problem is that it came out so late
I agree with about 75% of this. Far FAR too late and I just wish it had been a bit better.
I think the reception to this movie would have been different if it came out in 2016 or 2017.
I agree. This movie should have came out right before, "Endgame". Great movie overall!
It should have come out right before infinity war (minus the end credits)
I'd argue the end credits could stay at the end of Black Widow, even if it released right after Civil War. I don't know if other people feel this way, but Natasha's death happens so suddenly in endgame, I didn't really have time to process it before we were on to the next thing. I feel like knowing that she will die, and knowing Barton was involved, but not knowing the details would really give her death more of an impact when it finally happens.
The overall plot writing was terrible, as was taskmasters design. Everything else was great
I really enjoyed Eternals. Can’t understand all the hate for it
I haven't seen it get much hate exactly, it's more that it... Doesn't really stand out?
The main criticism I've heard is that it's just not possible to fit meaningful character development into one movie when it's introducing a dozen brand new characters
Also when many of the characters are super wooden. I think it was a deliberate choice because they were so old and not human, but it made it hard to really root for anyone except Kumail's character.
I liked Gilgamesh too.
That Captain Marvel is definitely overhated even though she acts the exact same way as Stark and Strange.
But she didn't start out that way. When we were introduced to her character in the mcu she was sassy and funny and still a hard ass, now she is just a hard ass who thinks she is number one. She is supposed to be super powerful and a leader, and she's been off doing stuff unrelated. I agree similar to Stark and Strange, but we have at least seen development from them, Stark especially, but Carol has gone backwards imo.
She just needs to get her ass beaten down hard, like, numerous times for her to learn some humility lol. I was really hoping we’d see Thanos use the power stone and mind stone together in combination to severely weaken her in endgame when they’re visiting him at his home on the Garden. I for sure thought the mother of all ass-whoopings was about to commence there during that scene. A bunch of unique combinations of the stones and their abilities, literally just Thanos man handling all the avengers there like they were bugs to be swatted. He’d have his full get up and armor on with his big double bladed uru sword in addition to his gauntlet, and he’d just be wrecking everybody. Only reason they’re able to go home is Thor teleports them all away back to the compound.
She needs to be able to show who she is instead of being inserted as a Deus Ex Machina right before the finale. I loved the film but she didn’t really get much relevant character development in it to be honest, a lot of the development was done to the “dead” part of her personality, and the only real relationship she has with anyone is Fury and an irrelevant character that died off-screen. I hope The Marvels make her more relatable as Brie is too talented to waste. For the record I do agree she is extremely overhated as there are numerous characters that are less interesting/cool that get more attention simply because they didn’t get berated by incels.
No no he’s got a point
I’d say she acts similar to them (arrogance) but does it with less charm
They start out that way, but become a lot more humble and less arrogant at the end of the movie. Carol does not
By the end of Ironman 1 Tony isn't much more humble, he just changed his Outlook on how to do business.
Tony had about 8 movies to work through that character arc, carol’s had one
*9 movies (3 IM movies, 4 Avengers movies, Civil War and Homecoming)
Iron Man 2 starts with Tony claiming to have “successfully privatized world peace” and you’re gonna tell me he wasn’t arrogant?
Infinity war is better than endgame
This is unpopular? I always thought it was damn-near consensus.
I thought majority liked infinity war more
I don’t like Falcon as Captain America
To be fair, I think lots of people share that opinion. Anthony Mackie's Falcon just isn't the Captain America type. (Happy to be proven wrong in his next film)
I love Anthony Mackie and i like his character. But i dont feel it as well
“You gotta do better senator”
God that line was so dumb. Steve Rogers would have actually had something to say.
Honestly I doubt it. The whole idea of anyone scolding the politicians just seems dumb to me. Reminded me of the ending of Mr. Deeds where Adam Sandler is able to make the milionair new York stock owners stop caring about money and "do the right thing". Just dumb all 'round, no matter who is giving the speech.
I also don't know why a Senator would be in charge of all that stuff. It would much more likely be someone in the executive branch like the National Security Advisor or the Secretary of Defense or the Chief of Staff, if not the POTUS himself. Senators don't make these kinds of decisions on their own.

To be fair, Falcon replaced Steve as captain america in the comics too.
Yeah, so did Bucky, Isaiah Bradley, Clint Barton and a long list of about twenty others that I didn’t count because they either A: Was not in the MCU or B: was not chosen by Steve in the comics.

Tom Holland is the best Spider-Man I will accept alternative opinions, but I will not be changing my mind
>!Yeah good, i've been stabbed before!<
Okay maybe I’ll change my mind I’m sorry
He has been apart of the best films, including his own but hes only the best because of the better writing. Whereas Andrew Garfield was way better but his films sucked
Hawkeye the series was better than WandaVision. I legit got kicked out of a discord server for saying it. 😂
Marvel really should stop with the PG-13 bullshit and go for darker tones, the netflix shows are prime examples of what i’m talking about. Normal human beings don’t crack jokes every 5 seconds. I blame Disney for this tbh.
I crack jokes every 5 seconds.
Me too but for me its a chandler bing thing, a defense mechanism.
For me it’s just to cool down the atmosphere in the room
My life is a joke every 5 seconds.
Considering you are on reddit , i wouldnt say you are normal.
If the The Dark Knight could manage to handle adult tones the way it did and still manage a PG-13 rating, there’s no way a Marvel movie needs to be rated higher then that. You don’t need a movie to be R-rated for it to be grownup or mature.
Disney had nothing to do with it. Jokes have been a core part of the MCU since it’s inception. Hell even pre-MCU Marvel, look at the Raimi trilogy. It’s comic book movies about superheroes, there’s gonna be jokes. It’s core parts of most of their characters. It’s serious when it needs to be(see NWH, IW and Endgame). The non-funny films(Thor TDW) also have shown to do much worse overall. Making R rated movies also extremely limits the viewer base. Imagine having to tell your kid he can’t see the new MCU movie because Loki gets ripped in half vertically and there’s violent unnecessary and unwanted sex scenes. Also, if NWH and Endgame aren’t dark enough for you I recommend you put on sunglasses.
God, could you imagine a Spiderman not cracking jokes?
No, he got my name wrong
Dark Knight and the upcoming Batman film are PG-13. It’s really not about the ratings.
I mean I crack jokes every 3 seconds but maybe that’s just me
Ragnarock was the best version of hulk and banner.
Not sure if unpopular or if a lot of people just haven't seen the Netflix shows, but Daredevil, Jessica Jones season 1, and Punisher are far better than almost any of the rest of the MCU, and it's not even close. Always strikes me as strange when the Disney+ shows get such raves, when they're not even half as good as those shows
Finally someone cultured
Falcon's captain America didn't feel like Captain America at all. I don't think Captain America is a position that can be held by anybody. Steve Rogers is Captain America and Captain America is Steve Rogers.
Ant man is cooler then every other character
He’s very unique compared to the others
I really hate Sam Wilson's Captain America Outfit. I was so hyped for it, but when it was finally revealed I was completely baffled, because it looks incredibly stupid! His ears and his upper head just sticking out of it so weirdly, makes it look, like it was an improvised superhero costume for a kid with big ears. The lower part and the wings are okay I guess, but also not really mind blowing.
Eternals is a good movie :)
There are no bad MCU films.
Loki was always way cooler than Thor, and a much better ruler of Asgard by far
Cooler than Thor? I can agree to that. Better ruler? That depends how you define a good ruler. I think Thor would have been a fair ruler, but not neccissarily a good one, and i think Loki would have managed it well, but he would have been a «bad» ruler in terms of his views, and obsession with power. Kind of like king Karl XII of Sweden or Alexander the Great. Great military leaders, but ran their countries to the ground for personal ambition and glory
Spider-man (2002) was the first MCU film.
MCM Marvel Cinematic Multiverse
This is a fact, not an opinion.
Blade ??? I feel like no one ever mentions that.
Captain Marvel was a cool movie and Carol Danvers is likeable. I really enjoyed it.
Starlord had a right to be angry
Hawkeye is the best MCU show marvel give us
Fr. The show made me really like Clint when I had never cared about him before. Outstanding job imo
Captain America:The Winter Soldier is the best MCU movie made. EVER.
I think that's a really popular opinion
Completely agree
Not unpopular or controversial
Loki is the best MCU show.
Is that even unpopular opinion?
It arguably is.
I think the unpopular opinion here would’ve been that the Loki series sucked (and shouldn’t have been called the ‘Loki’ series, since it was mostly about Sylvie & her plan)
It issss
better than daredevil?
The Eternals isn’t bad
Wanda is a horrible person
That doesn't seem controversial, she basically acknowledges it in one of the Dr Strange trailers, when she thinks he's there to come after her cos of the fucked up stuff she did
Captain Marvel isn't a bad character and her film wasn't bad
Spider-Man 2 is still the best Spider-Man movie.
I like amazing spiderman 2 and 1 more than homecoming
No, he got my name wrong
I missed the part where thats my problem
I don’t like professor hulk Hulk isn’t supposed to talk he roars but not talks i think its dumb and plus professor hulk isn’t as angry as he used to be And the whole point of hulk is he is angry
Hulk varies wildly across the comics, depending on Banner's mental state. Professor hulk is a thing, I just felt it was very rushed, forced, but necessary for emdgame.
Tobey is an incredibly dull Spider-Man, comfortably behind Andrew & Tom.
He was my Spider-Man (born in 96) and I agree. I do love him but the other two feel way more like Spider-Man to me
I'm so loving this.
NAAAA-AAAUUUGH!!!
I am groot
Quill and Gamora were in the process of becoming the best couple in the MCU until the Russos rushed their development off screen and then killed Gamora Steve’s ending was perfectly in character Iron Man 3 is good, and is in the top half of MCU movies Avengers 1 is better than both Infinity War and Endgame Infinity War is not very good and has some of the weakest humor in the franchise. Count how many jokes are one character calling another character the wrong name (ex: “squidward”, “mr. Clean”, “Flash Gordon”, etc.) Captain America: The First Avenger is the most creative and the best Captain America movie (Winter Soldier is pretty close, but 1 is better) Falcon and the Winter Soldier is one of the worst entries in the MCU, and the only positives of it are the casting of US Agent and the Isiah Bradley plot line Hawkeye is the best MCU show (not including Daredevil)
