I haven't seen Iron Man 3 yet. Iron Man 2 made me question whether the franchise should really keep going. I recommend against watching it, le n.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
At least they had RDJ in them. My complaints about Thor 2 have no off button.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I haven't seen Thor 2. From what I know about it, I think I will feel the way some people feel about IM2.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I didn't dislike Thor 2 as much as ita apparently does, but I think it was just too MUCH.
I think IM3 was worse than Thor 2 though.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
My (current) rankings are:
Avengers
Guardians of the Galaxy
Captain America 2
Iron Man 1
Captain America 1
Incredible Hulk
Iron Man 3
Thor 1
Thor 2
Iron Man 2
I change my mind often on this, though.
The Norton Hulk film holds up surprisingly well, although it kind of falls apart in the third act, as a lot of the Marvel films do.

Thor 2 was okay by me.

Hey. New board.
Avengers
Captain America 2
Captain America 1
Iron Man 1
Iron Man 3
Thor 1
Iron man 2
The only one I found even remotely "bad" was Iron Man 2, though I found it rollicking fun enough. I enjoy RDJ in the role and like the Iron Man movies but they've never grabbed my investment as much as the others.
I haven't seen the others. I don't really want to see Hulk. I didn't really know Thor 2 was considered bad and will probably see it someday. I cannot see Guardians of the Galaxy soon enough, but life isn't really helping with that at the moment.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I liked Iron Man 3. I thought Thor 2 was substantially less fun than Thor 1. And honestly, I liked Iron Man 2. I have a low bar.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
My top three, in indeterminate order, would be Iron Man 1, Avengers and Captain America 2. I haven't seen Guardians of the Galaxy yet, but I've seen all the others. Least favourite would probably be Thor 2. I think Iron Man 2 was a worse movie, but I find RDJ too fun to watch to put it at the bottom.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Liked, didn't love GotG. One too many civilizations for me, I think.
I can't deal with ranking, but Thor 1 would be way up there for me.
