Not really. Cap 1 was boring as hell. Great scenery and evoking the mood, but boring as hell. Thor 1: Thor completely changes his personality for no reason, evolving from Iron Age Brute to sensitive modern guy Literally overnight, with no motivation whatsoever. The Asguard reliance on horses makes no sense. And the really horrid and tedious "Magic is just super-advanced science" argument.
Hawkeye's name being mentioned without bothering to actually use him was just dumb.

Yeah, sorry, elaborating on those takes doesn't cool them down any.

I'll agree (ish) that Thor 1 was not a good movie. It was passable super hero action nonsense. But of course Asgardians use horses and their space ships are literal Viking long ships. That makes perfect (super hero universe) sense.

But Cap 1 was a rather nice character study and a love letter to the original material. Yes, it was a series of vignettes rather than a single story, but there's nothing wrong with that.

Neither of them detracted from Avengers. In fact both of them contributed by giving the Thor, Cap, and Loki extra screen time to develop, if nothing else.
