Glad you enjoyed them rinks!

Thor Ragnarok is my favourite which is surprising as Thor and Thor 2 are probably my least favourites!

Ragnarok is fantastic!

I've got a bit of a soft spot for Thor 1 even if it is a weak film overall. Dark World is genuinely terrible

Dark World is the single MCU film I only watched once. Never again! :dread:

I watched Dark World again a few weeks ago and it's actually a lot better than I remember it

Holy gooseberry fool at all the stuff dropping this year :dread:

Watched it last night actually.

It's perfectly fine, though it is easily the weakest movie they've done.

I feel it's salvaged somewhat by how it gets referenced in later movies.

For me there hasn't been a "bad" MCU movie. At their worst (Dark World, IM2, Incredible Hulk) they're a bit bland and unimaginative but I've found something to enjoy in every single one so far.

Similar to some I felt the first Captain America and Thor movies were simply ok, though both have grown on me a lot over the years.

Antman and the Wasp is the weakest they've made. Incredibly boring, forgetful villian and it even wastes Lawrence Fishburne. Every action scene in the trailer too.

Wish my image sig would work

I've enjoyed both Ant Man movies, they aren't the best MCU offerings but they're fun

I do feel like Ant Man and the Wasp wasted Ghost as its main villain. Still a fun outing, I just wish it were more memorable.

Endgame done. Bloody hell, that’s... a lot to process.

Just one comment for now: I had to google who the young guy was at the funeral. Really nice touch.

What films end without a resolution? I can literally only think of Infinity War.

I think he means the mid and end credits scenes that set up future films?

I'm really looking forward to Wandavision but that's only because Elizabeth Olson as a 50s housewife is a fetish I didn't even know I had until about 20 minutes ago.

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking of. OrangeRBBT is right about Infinity War being the only unresolved one (I think), but when I said resolution I meant more the series as a whole.
