    I have to put Iron Man first. Maybe because it's seeing one of my favorites as a kid come to the big screen, or the story and the performance by RDJr. I also like the Captain America movies better than the Thor movies, again could be because I was a CA fan as a kid and not so much Thor. Was underwhelmed by the Hulk movies, but what do I know, I used to like the Lou Ferrigno series :confused:

    Have not yet seen Guardians, will probably do so when it goes to DVD.

    That's pretty much my exact order, except I'd swap Iron Man 2 and 3. Was not a fan of what they did with the Mandarin, but Whiplash was barely even a villain. You seriously could have inserted any other bad guy into his role in that movie - even a generic no name criminal - and it would have been exactly the same movie.

    Also, not that I'd rank it much higher, but the first Cap movie is actually a lot cooler watching it now after the whole universe is more developed.

    Going to see this tonight, I have extremely limited knowledge of what it's about (just read one Rocket Raccoon comic) but still pretty excited.

    I disagree that GOTG was the best MCU movie as well.

    1. Cap 2 - TWS
    2. The Avengers
    3. Guardians of the Galaxy
    4. Iron Man
    5. Thor
    6. Captain America: The First Avenger
    7. Thor 2: TDW
    8. The Incredible Hulk
    9. Iron Man 2
    10. Iron Man 3

    Wasn't a huge fan of the last 2 Iron Mans, especially Iron Man 3 holy crap. It gave me the Spiderman 3 feeling all over again.

    Yeah! Great way of putting it. I felt the same way, but not in a copying Star Wars way, even though many elements felt similar. They did a great job with it all.

    I heard some people comparing it to Firefly only with alien species and stuff. Sounds good to me.

    Too much going on in the summer to go see a movie other than the movies I REALLY want to see. I see 3-4 movies a week in the fall, winter and spring, summer I take off other than my personal must see's.

    Daredevil remains the top Marvel movie since the start of the century.

    Good list , but I thought Iron Man 3 was absolute garbage. I would replace it with The Punisher with John Travolta and Thomas Jane.

    I haven't seen the Thor: Darkworld, so I would replace it with X-men First class.

    Daredevil gets too much criticism, Bulls eye played by Colin Ferrell was a great villain. It could be number 11 in front of all the Fantastic Four and Spider-man movies.

    Yeah, I didn't mind Daredevil as much as most folks. Farrell is great in pretty much anything he does and I'm embarrassed to admit it but I like a lot of what Affleck does. I also think Jennifer Garner is attractive so what do I know.
