Going to try to get into this.
I've heard the Thor films are shit, should I skip them?
>>
>>81296090
You can watch Thor 1 just so you know what the hell is going on.

The first 2/3rds of the movie isn't bad.

You can skip Thor 2.
>>
Do not skip any thor movie.

Dont skip none of them, familia.

As meh as the thor movies are, they are all related to infinity war, as both of them feature infinity stones. Also, thor 1 and captain america are importants for you to fully enjoy the first avengers movie.
>>
Skip Ant-Man, no matter what any one says.

First Thor is eh and second is eher. Possibly skip both unless you just really enjoy Hemworth's Thor.

Winter Soldier and Guardians are the GOAT movies of the MCU.

First Cap flick, first Iron Man and Hulk are all pretty good.

Iron Man 2 and 3 are both just all right.

Avengers is good for the pure fact of them all being in a film together. AoU is all right and doesn't deserve the hate it got. It's a mess but an entertaining one.

Am I missing any?
>>
Don't skip them, that's lazy
They are utter shit, they have no value, forget what these faggots are telling you, they SUCK
Still watch them
>>
>>81296090
None of the movies are un-watchable, if you don't have much time tho, just watch the main contiunity of the story; Iron Man 2 - Thor 1 - Avengers - Winter Soldier - Ultron
>>
>>81296090
Thor 1 is fine.

Skip Thor 2.

Unfortunately no
If you do you will miss the 2 seconds of after film footage which is whedon's way of connecting films that have almost nothing to do with each other together

>>81296090
Continuity-wise, Iron Man 3 and Thor 2 are the two you can skip.

Quality-wise, Iron Man 2 and Thor 2 are the only truly bad ones. AoU gets disproportionate hate.

Why are you lying?

I dunno m8, I mean you can argue all the Dark Elf shit isn't important to the major continuity line but what happens with Loki pretty much is.
>>
>>81296319
Would anything even be different if Iron Man 3 never existed?

>>81296318
The only two after-credit sequences Whedon did were both for Infinity War, which is a direct sequel to the movies those after-credit sequences were in.
>>
>>81296338
I tell no lie.

I really really did not like it. I went into it expecting something great and was instead left with a bad taste in my mouth.
>>
>>81296090
As much as I don't like Thor 2, it's kind of important for later stuff.

Thor is perfectly "okay" though
>>
>>81296365

I mean the character arc for Tony is pretty important.

It doesn't really contribute to the overall "plot" though, not in any meaningful way we've seen so far. It's pretty clear that Shane Black was given his own sandbox to play around in, considering from what we've heard that movie had the least MCU studio interference.
>>
>>81296216
How can you think AoU is "alright" but be revulsed so hard by Ant-Man? It wasn't even a bad movie
>>
>>81296365
It sort of sets up why Tony goes all "defense-crazy" for AoU which would lead into CW

>>
>>81296864

I like the Tor films because they're basically dumb 80's movies transposed to modern day. The first one is the spiritual sequel to goofy shit like the Masters of the Universe movie and Beastmaster 2, and The Dark World reminded me of the bizarre sci-fi/fantasy blend movies like Krull.

It probably helps that I've never gives a single wet fuck about comic Thor, so the fact that they pissed over the legacy of the comic character doesn't mean anything to me.

Just watch them all and make up your own opinions, there's no /co/ consensus on any of these movies.

Maybe skip Hulk because it's more or less non-canon after the actor change, but I guess Ross shows up again
>>
>>81296963
I think this is the key to enjoying the Thor films. I don't care about comic Thor and I think the movies are fun for what they are.

I can understand how a Thor fan would probably be let down, but for me they're decent action comedies.
>>
>>81297158

It's not even that, when I was little most of the comics I read were West Coast Avengers and Thor was never a member of that team. When I think of "my" Avengers idea of team brick, I think of Wonder Man and not Thor.

I guess I would probably be pretty mad if they did the Thor movie treatment to Wonder Man, but he's fucking Wonder Man. There's a better chance of ScarJo and Elizabeth Olsen knocking on my door and inviting me to a threesome then Simon ever getting a movie.

Now, if you really enjoy the MCU up to the first Avengers movies, you can add the Marvel Tv shows to the mix.

Be warned, though, the first half of the Season 1 of Agent of Shield is really dull, it only picked up after Captain America 2). Either way in this case the watching order become:

The Agent Carter series is set in 1946. you can basically watch it at any point you want, once you have seen the first Captain America movie.

As you can see, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. as the particularity to stick to the events of the movies that are released in the middle of the season, which can make the viewing a bit strange if you only watch that show without remembering/knowing the event of the movie they refer to.
>>
>>81297572
This.

Don't listen to the retards that have watched every movie some 3 or 4 times. The first time you'll be watching them you'll enjoy them enough to justify your time. If you think they are meh, skip them in the next runs.

There have been no outright BAD MCU stuff, so I'm sure you'll find some joy in at least some parts of every entry.

>inb4 shill
I wouldn't skip MoS or BvS either if the next DCEU movies turn out great, as shit as these two are, I'm sure they'll be important.
>>
>>81297572

What was the point of that short?
I mean, the show try to establish to new scientists being recruited by Shield, but their ability to make work the Alien weapons never amount to anything. Not even AoS make use of those events.
>>
>>81296216
>Skip Ant-Man
No. I'm not into cape movies, but this was genuinely a better cape movie than most.
>>
>>81297725
Wasting Lizzy Caplan, who could've been a great Wasp.

At the time I don't think they were ever expecting to do AoS or any show, so that's how they breathed a bit of extra fluff into the universe.
>>
>>81296319
>Iron Man 3
This is honestly the only movie that could be skipped if you want to skip. Thor 2 was genuinely bad and felt like nothing (Loki was the only good part, surprisingly).

But watch Ant-man, OP.
>>
>>81297800
I liked both IM3 and Thor 2.
>>
>>81297761

I feel like Item 47 must ahve been some sort of glorified backdoor TV pilot, but Caplan got Masters of Sex and Titus Welliver got Bosch so it fell through.
>>
>>81296945
I thought the slav guy was funny. Also the monologue from the mexican guy. It didn't make me die from laughing, but the movie felt like the IM1 movie. It felt more genuine than a money cashgrab like AoU/IM3.
>>
The only MCU thing I couldn't sit through was Agents of SHIELD. Dropped it in the middle of season 2.

I'm a huge MCUfag, but for the life of me I can't bring myself to give a shit about AoS.
>>
>>81297871
Nice try DCuck

>>81297833
Those shitty jokes from Portman's friend and the weak ass villain (RIP 9th Doctor's US career) lowered my enjoyment. It also felt kinda nothing and Loki was the only good part.

>>81297922
Not him but you don't have to be a DCuck to not like AoS
>>
>>81297871
Same here. I was astounded that it didn't maintain my attention - I was fully prepared to gobble up whatever crap it threw at me.

It's just an utter non-entity. I have a friend who watches it almost out of masochistic interest and we always have a good laugh at whatever nonsensical and unimportant bullshit it continuously seems to peddle.

>I wouldn't skip MoS or BvS either if the next DCEU movies turn out great, as shit as these two are, I'm sure they'll be important.
kind of have a point, but the specific thing about Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D is that it has almost zero impact on the movies. It's a bit like the E.U. of Star Wars. Don't expect any of the star wars movies to refer to any of the events of the books and comics.

It's perfectly legit to be a movie-only MCU fan.

I do actually enjoy AoS, but I understand not everyone get into it.
>>
>tfw there are people on /co/ who don't watch all the MCU movies
>>
>>81298111
Oh yeah, I agree. I was just talking about not skipping movies. AoS is more worth it to watch in-between movies, but then it's more of a AoS marathon than a MCU marathon. I'd leave it for last.

Iron 3 is fine. It's true that it's ignored by the rest of the MCU, but it's just a case of not muhs.

Jessica Jones is Mid-Tier.

Switch AoU and Avengers. If you look past the novelty of the first Avengers movie, AoU is better in every single way.

I'd also bump Daredevil down a tier.
>>
>>81298388
It's not a bad movie at all. It's only real "problem" is that it's an Earth-based romcom, which has nothing to do with the quality of the movie by itself.

>>81298339
Age of Ultron was far more interesting and entertaining than Hulk, swap those two.

Iron Man 3 in shit tier? Are you autistic? Shane Black has never done anything deserving of shit tier. I'd put that solidily in good.

Otherwise great breakdown.

The difference is Jessica knew who Killgrave was from in the beginning and had several chances to take him down before then and screwed the pooch.

The whole thing is a terrible attempt to ape Joss Whedon's writing style, with constant "witty" banter that isn't witty at all, and trying to be self-aware. The characters are flat as hell (I couldn't describe either of the black characters on the team if I tried), and nothing interesting ever happens.

The last one was the major indicative since it was kind of ambiguous as to what happened first, but if the shots were meant to be chronological, then he shot under his own will. It's not Arrested Development level clues, but it's definitely there.

But seriously, the entirety of TWS.

the Thor movies would be better if they were just live action adaptation of the old Hostess ad comics
>>
>>81299150
Thanks for replying anon. You just gave me a small reason to think about checking it out one day. I still thought it was insipid but maybe it got a bunch better in later seasons.

I don't watch Arrow, Gotham, Supergirl or any of the other Cape shows so I've got nothing to compare to it.

I guess X Files? But I can't imagine Ward competing with my Mulder love ahem, I mean Scully of course

Thor 1 is pretty good, don't skip it. Thor 2 is garbage and should probably be skipped if you're gonna skip anything.
>>
>>81296090
I only watched Iron Man 1&2 before I saw Avengers. It didn't affect my or my brothers enjoyment (I'd even forgotten Black Widow was in IM2, since I only saw it once). My mum and dad hadn't seen any of the previous movies and liked Avengers.
Honestly skip the Phase 1 movies except for Iron Man and Avengers. Then skip Iron Man 3 and Thor The Dark World. Watch Daredevil S1 and 2 and the first half of Jessica Jones instead.

These are about chronological. Notice how Skye starts by getting her ass kicked and gradually becomes better and better. It started shitty, there's no denying (and it could've done the same WS story but better even), but it's gradually becoming a lot better. It's highs reach Flash levels, I'd say, and they don't have one quarter the relationship drama.

He wasn't cool, he was edgy

Why do people like this Ultron? I preferred the one that was more human, it had him more scary.
>>
>>81299407
Yeah, a few people attributed that to choppy editing, and thought that it might have been a goof, but he lingers on his look after he does it, and she notices it.

Some people speculated that him or May might be a mole by then.

I guarantee that'll be you. And it'll be because you were a movie skipping faggot. I bet you skip chapters in a book.
>>
>>81299035
As someone who watched Season 2, I will strongly disagree with the notion that it was good.
>>
>>81296090
Just watch all of Phase 1 and Phase 2 how hard is that? How have you not seen any yet? like Iron Man 1 or something?
>>
>>81299911
why?

Because he doesn't actually watch AoS. He's just saying that because he wants it to go away because he doesn't want to feel compelled to watch this canon material.

2 was just a weaker 1 and it wasn't that bad. 3 was fucking shit

Thanks for the help, anons. I'll watch all the films + Daredevil.
>>
>>81300195
Also Jessica Jones. It's honestly not bad at all. It's nearly as quality as Daredevil. If black people upset you, don't watch it I guess. I'm pretty sure that's why no one on 4chan likes it.
>>
>>81299998
Fuck off.

>>81299952
It tried way too hard to be clever. None of the characters had any character beyond a single trait or two (like Fitz' brain damage) and they just barked one-liners at each other. I can forgive it in The Avengers, because at least half of those ones are actually funny, but here it's just painful.

Like this:
>>81298302

Characters make decisions based on what the plot demands instead of what makes sense. Ward showed a glimmer of potential when he turned out to be HYDRA, but his personality just shifted from generic agent to generic evil.
>>
>>81299998
Why are AoS fans always so obnoxious about defending it?
>>
>>81300292
its really clear that you've never seen the entire season so here is your you
>>
>>81300185
3 had coherent plot structure. 2 was a bunch of random shit happening and then it ends.
>>
>>81300322
Because 9 times out of 10, the people who shit on it didn't give it an actual chance past the first half of the season where it got good.

You faggots. The entire point of The Avengers is that it was built up over time with each movie before it, introducing characters and allowing you to gradually suspend disbelief. If you were to watch The Avengers without seeing the first 4 movies, it would just be an elaborate cartoon about aliens.

If it takes longer than that for a show to get good (especially when the seasons are that long), it's not worth it.

Gotham is perfect.

It's grimdark enough to be batman.

It's campy enough to be a comic book.

All the actors are great (s1 bruce was an annoying shithead, but s2 bruce is A+)

Subplots are wrapped up quickly

The worst parts of the show have been Barbera and Fish.

To be absolutely 100% fair, Agents of Shield took their fucking sweet ass time to get good. I don't regret sticking around and people who shit on it really don't have any idea what they are talking about, but the fact that it did not have strong start is entirely ABC's fault.
>>
>>81302882
What's your choice of serialized television show, based in a type of supernatural or fantasy setting, that meets your requirements for innovative and interesting characters?

You're bound to have a show you respect in that manner, otherwise you're just a troll.
>>
>>81300859
Because that's over 20 fucking hours to sit through in the hopes that it MIGHT get good. And when I'd already passed the point people said it got better at, I can no longer trust those people when they say "No, it gets better!"

skip all of them and watch some good movies based off of comics instead

you only have a limited amount of time in your life friend, why waste it on shit films just because they share a universe with some slightly above average films?

Watch American Splendor, Heavy Metal, Dredd, Rocketeer, Road to Periditon

all much better than anything in the MCU and none of them require you to watch 5 uninspired shitty blockbusters that share the same canon

It's not essential. Loki is so badly written in The Avengers, it would probably make it less enjoyable to have seen a better version of him.
>>
>>81296090

They are all pretty much the same movie. 6/10 b action movie, alot of jokes and okay fights. Villains and story are pretty shit. If your ok with this you'll enjoy them.
>>
>>81310393
But Loki is already a gaylord in Thor, isn't he?
>>
>>81310495
He has more interesting motivation. In Thor, he genuinely doesn't believe Thor is ready for the throne and conspires against him. He's slightly malicious, but he's doing what he thinks is right and doesn't intentionally harm Odin or Thor.

In The Avengers he just wants to rule Earth and is a comic foil to Iron Man and the Hulk.
>>
>>81310833
He's the best part in Thor and just about the only good part in Thor 2.

I kind of want to watch them all in order now. Wonder if I could find them all through means I have.
