What I’ve seen and enjoyed:

X-Men (from the 2000’s). First Class. Days Of Future Past. Sam Raimi Spider-Man. Blade 1+2.

What I’ve seen and didn’t enjoy:

Iron Man. Avengers 1. The Amazing Spider-Man. X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Daredevil.

It feels like Marvel’s earlier movies were better? From their MCU stuff I get the vibes of tokusatsu but it takes itself way to seriously and the Joss Whedon banter is so reddit it hurts.

Thoughts?

    I mean none of them are really going to be great films, because they’re inherently slop. Out of the slop that exists, the first Guardians of the Galaxy, Logan, Thor: Ragnarok, the first Avengers: Infinity War and the first new Spiderman (I think it’s called Homecoming?) are all pretty well put together.

      I’ll be honest, I enjoyed the most recent one with all three Spider-men. Yeah it was fanservice slop, but I liked seeing Willem Dafoe and Alfred Molina reprising their roles. Plus it was the first movie I’d seen in theaters in years so it was fun.
