A fun little post about me


Good Saturday Morning Everyone,

This outpost can get pretty dark and frankly paranoid. So to give a little levity and to give you a little bit of insight into myself. I am a Marvel Cinematic Universe fanboy. That being said, here is a quick top ten:

1) The Avengers: This is the first time we see them all together, nuff said.

2) Captain America: The Winter Soldier: This film made Captain America cool, which qualifies top potentially be number 1. This film saved Phase 2.

3) Iron Man: The godfather of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) RDJ sets the standard

4) Captain American: Civil War: This movie really opened the doors at the concept of comic books on screen. As a short time hard core comic reason (ages 12-14) the greatest thing was seeing characters interact. We are 10+ films in, besides some necessary origin stories (Ant-Man, Dr. Strange, etc) as long they continue to branch into different genres.

5) Guardians of the Galaxy: A fantastic view into a completely different realm of the MCU that the Thor movies just couldn't do. If you don't love Chris Pratt after this movie, I'm speechless.

6) Avengers: Age of Ultron: This film gets better with the addition of CACW. These next couple of films have some serious flaws, but are still very enjoyable. Avengers AOU suffers under the weight of expectations and trying to fit a lot of phase 2 into it. As the more films are introduced into the MCU, this film will get better.

7) Ant-Man: Director changes can be seen. It is a really fun film but you can see the problems in it..

8) Captain America: First Avenger: Seeing how important Cap has become to the MCU (Which is not what they were planning on) This film is rushed, but a really great period film.

9) Thor: He is such an awesome character in the two Avenger films, it is a shame that he cannot get better solo outings. Hopefully Thor: Ragnarok can give him a story he deserves.

10) Iron Man 2/Iron Man 3/Thor 2:  Movies that suffer from trying to fit into the MCU while trying to be their own stand alone film.
