[QUOTE="Blue, post: 9358005, member: 20564"] If you want the majority of my list, go reread what [USER=7035894]@Clint_L[/USER] wrote - he not only hit them but said why. He did mention Civil War was close, and for me that does edge out Shang Chi which still liked it a lot. But I've got one glaring difference from several on this thread - Thor: Ragnarok just doesn't do it for me. It's third best of the four Thor films for me, only beating Thor: The Dark World. Yes, for me Love and Thunder beats Ragnarok, and not by a little bit. This isn't a testament to Love and Thunder being great - it's low-mid level MCU at best. Just Ragnarok didn't work for me. Enough that it got beaten by screaming goats. (And Christian Bale, and some kick-rear Asgardian kids, to balance it back.) So what to replace it with? The original Thor, like the original Iron Man, has charm. But I'm a sucker for a good villain, who do we have that hasn't been covered? We have Vulture and Killmonger,Loki and with my Civil War sub in Baron Zemo. Wenwu is [I]almost[/I] enough to bring back Shang Chi, but can't overcome the big CGI set-piece battle they felt they needed at the end. I'm branding myself because no one else mentioned him, but I did quite enjoy James Spader's rendition of Ultron. We get some great team fight scenes, pathos with Quicksilver, Clint's (Hawkeye, not Clint_L) "None of this makes sense, but do it anyway" speech to Wanda, it sets up both Wanda and Vision moving forward in the MCU. So I think that's the last on my list. And now I'm considering a rewatch of Shang Chi. Or Love and Thunder.
