Now with age of Ultron added.

I think it's tough because phase 2 was wonderful, vastly superior to phase 1. I reckon he winner has to be captain America 2 the winter soldier though
 
My ranking. 1 - The Winter Soldier. 2 - Age of Ultron. 3 - Guardians of the Galaxy. 4 - Iron Man Three. (quite a distance between) 5. The Dark World
 
Mine is 1. Winter soldier 2. Iron man 3, 3. Guardians of the Galaxy 4. Avengers 2 5. Thor 2
 
Captain America: The Winter Soldier, then Iron Man 3, then Guardians of the Galaxy, then Avengers: Age of Ultron and finally Thor: The Dark World.
 
Captain America 2.

Not just a great Marvel movie, but the best comic book film since the Dark Knight.
 
For me its GOTG at the moment but Ian not voting until i see AOU.
 
It's still not finished with Age of Ultron. Ant-Man is part of Phase 2 also.
 
Cap two for sure...one of my fave next to guardians and the avengers

Are we going to redo this once Ant-Man comes out?

Yes, this thread is premature.

That said, I don't agree that phase 2 has been "vastly superior" to phase 1. About the same, I'd say. What it has been though is different than phase 1. And that's to be expected with phase 2 having more sequels than phase 1 did.

So far I'd say Cap2 is winning but I've not seen AoU and obviously Ant-Man.

In fact I would say phase 1 is vastly superior. Iron Man 1 and Cap 1 are better than any films in Phase 2 IMO.

Winter soldier was the best so far but it barely did anything for me. Iron man 3 and Thor 2 are among some of my most hated marvel films.

Guardians I don't take seriously, nor really care about. It is what it is.

I have high hopes of Age of Ultron, but I won't be surprised if it falls short, just like the rest. Phase 1 was magic than can't be replicated.

Comparing Winter Soldier to The Dark Knight is laughable. If you love it that much, it's more comparable to The Avengers or DOFP, or something similar. Dark Knight is still on another level.
 
I've seen all of the picks including AoU and I choose Guardians of the Galaxy.

Not to be that guy, but Ant-Man is part of Phase 2. :yay:
 
I haven't seen Thor 2 yet, but I have to say, I've liked all of the Phase 2 films.
 
I can't help but wonder what Phase 3 (if there is a Phase 3) will be like?

I'll just leave this right here... :)

Winter Soldier and that's about it. IM3 was interesting but not my favorite Shane Black Xmas movie.

Still haven't seen Ultron though.

I actually agree but not the way you mean.

Yeah, at the bottom of a dumpster.

I've seen AoU now and to me it's neck and neck with Cap2 for best of phase 2. IM3 so far is dead in the middle and GotG and Thor 2 are at the bottom. Still waiting on Ant-Man though.
