Rank the Marvel films

No way is Spider-Man 2 the best Marvel film made. It's easily the best film Sony has made, but I thought it was just good. Not great.

It baffles me people like Blade movies.

Not trying to be a jerk. Everyone has opinions, I get it, and that's great people like them, but those films are so much worse than so many other films that get so much more flack on this site IMO. It honestly baffles me.

I'm sorry, but I have to ask, what's your rationale for not even including Avengers in the 'worth seeing as a Marvel fan' category? It's especially baffling, given you place Iron Man 2 in the spectacular film camp.
 
It's not really contradicted other than what we see in the opening credits of TIH which doesn't matter. TIH was deliberately a soft reboot.

But a reboot is still a reboot, not a sequel. If Ang Lee's Hulk was MCU canon, it would have a sequel, not a reboot.

As for your list, I saw flaws in all of the films, but think saying films in the MCU should be "avoided" is a little harsh.
 
No way is Spider-Man 2 the best Marvel film made. It's easily the best film Sony has made, but I thought it was just good. Not great.

I think it is definitely the best movie based off a Marvel Comics character. The second best is DOFP. Then The Winter Soldier.
 
No. Don't get me wrong, it's REALLY good. But the best, not imo. I'd rank Avengers, The Winter Soldier, Days of Future Past, Iron Man, and X2 over it. Still, that's not a bad ranking all things considered.
 
I present my top marvel films based not on studios but how i liked each film

1:X2
2:X-Men Days of future past-despite the ending
3:The Amazing Spider-man
4:X-Men
5:Captain America:The Winter Soldier
6:The Wolverine
7:X-Men First Class
8:The Avengers
9:Iron Man
10:Daredevil:The Director's Cut
11:The Incredible Hulk
12:Spider-Man 2
13:Spider-man
14:Blade
15:Blade II
16:Captain America:The First Avenger
17:The Amazing Spider-man 2
 
Doing it a little different:

1. a tie between the

Marvel Cinematic Universe (Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor, Captain America: The First Avenger, Marvel's The Avengers, Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, Captain America: The Winter Soldier)--
I think IM2 is the weak link of the series, although not as bad as some say IMO.

and the

X-Men Film Franchise (X-Men, X2: X-Men United, X-Men: The Last Stand, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, X-Men: First Class, The Wolverine, X-Men: Days of Future Past)--
Myself, I consider Origins the only weak link of the X-Films.

I couldn't pick one over the other…look what both franchises have done.


2.
the Spider-Man Trilogy (Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2, Spider-Man 3)--
Parts I and II are brilliant, and III is decent…even with a few cringeworthy scenes, might even put that one above The Last Stand--if I was doing the films individually…

3.
the Blade Trilogy (Blade, Blade II, Blade: Trinity)
--
Did anybody know Blade before the films? I know I didn't…this series got me into researching and collecting the comics.

4.
Daredevil: Director's Cut, Elektra--
DC is one of Marvel's best…it's also the only reason Elektra shares the number four spot…honestly, if I was doing these separate instead of series…I'd probably have Elektra dead last…I do think Man-Thing is better…


5.
Fantastic Four Films (Fantastic Four, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer)
--
I did think they did the family aspect of the FF justice. I don't think the films were that bad. Doom was horribly miscast…

6.
The Amazing Spider-Man , haven't seen 2 yet…

Some people lump these together…the Punisher films…the Ghost Rider films…the Ang Hulk with the MCU…some do them separate, I do them separate:

7.
Punisher


8.
Hulk

9.
Ghost Rider


10.
Punisher: WarZone

11.
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance


12.
Man-Thing
