Re: The Official Comicbook Movies Thread: Part 3

[rincon]

Dr Strange MoM was great. Second best MCU film after Spiderman 3.

Distinct style from the director, 100% his movie which is what is needed at this point, less same-y stuff. A very different MCU movie. Crazier, more comic book-like, wilder than most entries. Took more risks than Shang Chi or Black Widow and earned more than both of those put together.

There was a lull in the MCU post-Endgame with the pandemic on top. Shangchi, Eternals, Black Widow was not a great run.

Now it looks to be back.

Spiderman 3
Dr Strange MoM
Thor love and thunder
Black Panther 2
Antman Quantumania
Guardians 3

You didn't like Shang chi? I thought it was the best one in that run.

Looking forward to Thor Love n Thunder. That will be good

Dr Strange was very mid like Black Widow. Eternals was trash. Spiderman No Way Home was one of the best comic book films of all time.

Spiderman NWH
Shang-Chi
Dr. Strange MOM
Eternals

So far my ranking of Phase 4 movies. For TV its:

Loki
Wandavision
Moon Knight
Hawkeye
What If
Falcon and the Winter Soldier

[McLewis]

Yeah I really liked Shang Chi. Think Simu Liu killed it.

I honestly liked Dr. Strange MOM better than Spiderman NWH. That's apparently an unpopular opinion, but oh well. That was just more my style. Loved the darker tones. Vintage Sam Raimi stuff.

Thor LaT will definitely shake this up, but my current phase rankings:

Dr. Strange MOM
Spiderman NWH
Shang Chi
Black Widow
Eternals

TV:

Wandavision
Loki
What If
Moon Knight
Ms. Marvel
Hawkeye
Falcon and Winter Soldier

[RealGunner]

I didn't even bother with black widow after seeing some scenes lol. Looks shocking. Although i will watch it for Florence Pugh at some point.

My ranking

Shang Chi
Spiderman NWH
Dr Strange MOM
Eternals

I liked it, more than I thought I would but tbh it was a bit more of the same for me after the 15 other origin stories we've had. So I expected to not care about it, it surprised me in that the fights were better than usual and the villain was very good but otherwise I wasn't too excited about it. Better than BW and Eternals though, thats clear.

Yeah BW is bottom tier MCU, easily the worst one since like Thor 2 or something like that. Florence Pugh killed it though, I didn't know the actress before but I left the theater as a fan. The actors are good in BW, the beginning has promise, and then it goes off the rails.

Spiderman NWM

Shang Chi
