I wanted to see it again before giving it a final ranking, but my life's been way too busy lately. I'd say it was on the same level as DoFP.

No matter how you slice it, great year for CBMs.

Spider-Man 2 IMO the best Marvel movie with serious dramatic elements and romance and what it means to be a hero for the hero while also providing great action and classic costumed hero vs eccentric bad guy.

X2 IMO is the best Marvel movie for superheroes as people, dramatic human and superhero relations, team dynamic and overall action

Guardians is IMO the best Marvel movie for sheer fun and entertainment but also for sentimentality

Haven't seen(don't plan to):
32. Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance
33. The Punisher: War Zone
34. Elektra

Even including DC movies in my list it wouldn't change much, I would just add TDKR in the "masterpiece" category. TDK and BB would be in the "Good" category and the rest in the awful category :D
 
Doing it a little different:

1.
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, Marvel's Agents of SHIELD, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy)--
I think IM2 is the weak link of the series, although not as bad as some say IMO.


2.
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.



3.
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…

4.
the Blade Trilogy (Blade, Blade II, Blade: Trinity...and Blade: The Series)
--
Did anybody know Blade before the films? I know I didn't…this series got me into researching and collecting the comics.

5.
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…


6.
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…

7.
The Amazing Spider-Man , haven't seen 2 yet…

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

8.
Punisher


9.
Hulk

10.
Ghost Rider


11.
Punisher: WarZone

12.
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance


13.
Man-Thing

...after careful consideration...and as much as I'm an X-Fan...I finally broke the tie and gave my #1 to the MCU. Also adjusted some spots to include TV shows...and I still need to see The Amazing Spider-Man 2, it's been sitting on my shelf since it came out...
 
Minor change to my ranking, I finally put TASM1 above Iron Man 2/Thor 2 and below those two are TASM2.
 
The Masterpieces:

1) Captain America: The Winter Soldier
2) Spider-Man 2
3) X-Men: Days Of Future Past
4) X-Men: First Class
5) X-Men 2: United

The Good:

6)Thor: The Dark World
7)Thor
8) Spider-man
9) Captain America: The First Avenger
10) Guardians of the Galaxy
11) The Incredible Hulk
12) X-Men
14) The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (Come at me:o)
15) The Wolverine
17) The Avengers
18) Iron Man 3

The 'Meh':

19) Spider-Man 3
20) Punisher (2004)
21) Iron Man 2
22) DareDevil

The Bad:

23) Blade Trinity
24) Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
25) Fantastic Four
26) X-Men The Last Stand
27) X-men Origins: Wolverine
28) Ghost Rider
29) Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance
30) Electra
31) The Amazing Spider-Man
 
Don't mind the numbering, it doesn't matter in this case in the Good and Masterpieces. They're higher especially IM3.:oldrazz: That's why I didn't bother rating them.

I'm just going to rate the Marvel films that I've seen most recently out of 10. I need to re-watch the earlier ones to give them a proper score (but will score them anyway):

In order of release date (earliest first):

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 - 7.0
Captain America: The Winter Soldier - 8.5
Thor: The Dark World - 5.5
The Wolverine - 5.2
Iron Man 3 - 6.25/10
The Amazing Spider-Man - 6.9
The Avengers - 7.7
Captain America: The First Avenger - 6.8 (need to re-watch)
X-Men: First Class - 7.5 (re-watch)
Thor - 6.6 (need to re-watch but would rather not)
Iron Man 2 - 6.7
X-Men Origins: Wolverine - 7.0 (I was impressed with my initial viewing but that was about 4 years ago, will need to re-watch)
The Incredible Hulk: 7.0 (re-watch)
Iron Man: 8.0 (re-watch)

I just cannot rate any of the other films beyond this point apart from Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy:

Spider-Man 3 - 6.72/10
Spider-Man 2 - 6.7/10
Spider-Man - 7.5/10

I'll re-do this list and sort the films into categories of ones I'd happily watch again, ones that are worth watching at least once and ones that should just be avoided.
 
I feel after re-watching Guardians and letting Amazing Spiderman 2's suckiness really sink in the past couple months I need to re-evaluate this summer's Marvel films:

(updated)

All the films I've seen with Marvel characters so far.

(Marvel Studios, FOX, Columia, other)

Rank. Title (rating out of 10)

02. The Avengers (9.0)

03. X2 (8.5)

23. Spider-Man 3 (6.0)
24. X-Men: Last Stand (6.0)
25. The Amazing Spiderman 2 (6.0)
26. The Punisher (5.5)
27. X-Men Origins: Wolverine (5.5)
28. Iron Man 3 (5.5)
29. Blade: Trinity (5.0)
30. Daredevil (5.0)
31. Ghost Rider (5.0)
32. Elektra (4.0)

I went through the list chronologically and awarded every movie a rating out of 10 and then ranked the movies accordingly.
After seeing the finished list I'm a little surprised to see Blade not making the top 10 and below both Captain America and
new X-Men movies, as it has been one of my personal favorites for a long time. I can only blame the overall average
quality of the franchise and Stephen Dorff. Also, I've seen every movie on the list at least twice except for Elektra,
Ghost Rider, The Amazing Spiderman 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy. The first two for being awful, and the latter because
it's not out on bluray yet.
