My ranking of MCU movies

Maybe I’ll add more commentary later, but for now here’s the numbered ranking, best to worst:

  1. The Avengers (2012)
  2. Black Panther (2018)
  3. Thor (2011)
  4. Iron Man (2008)
  5. Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
  6. Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)
  7. Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)
  8. Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)
  9. Thor: The Dark World (2013)
  10. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)
  11. Iron Man 3 (2013)
  12. Ant-Man (2015)
  13. Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)
  14. Doctor Strange (2016)
  15. Iron Man 2 (2010)
  16. Captain America: Civil War (2016)
  17. The Incredible Hulk (2008)
  18. Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

Pretty standard, with a few notable exceptions: everyone else hates AOU, but I really like it; everyone loves CA: TWS, CA: CW, and TR (except a few of my friends), but I thought the first was meh and the latter two were characterization disasters. Maybe considered on its own (if that were even possible) TR isn’t the worst MCU movie; I’m judging it as a sequel, which it was supposed to be.

Any thoughts, @fuckyeahrichardiii? Or any rearrangements you want to try to talk me into?
