[QUOTE="TheHand, post: 8677994, member: 88835"] I feel like the movies have been very uneven and disconnected in this Phase, where everything before felt much more interwoven and connected (esp after Phase 2). The movies have been mostly "fine", but a few notes: 1) I felt like ScarJo got a weak send-off in her own movie. Florence Pugh took center stage and it felt like her movie. While she was great in the role, it felt like the writing gave Black Widow herself a very mediocre story, a disappointing finale for a character we've seen since Iron Man 2. 2) Shang-Chi was "fun" and I enjoyed it, but it didn't really stick with me. It kind of glossed over the best stuff between Shang-Chi and his father at the end, then just became a giant CGI war that felt like a weird sequel to the [I]other [/I]Disney dragon movie with Akwafina. 3) Spider-Man: Far From Home: Another "this was fine" movie. Probably the weakest of the Tom Holland Spider-Man movies for me. Never gave it a second watch. 4) Eternals: This one really seemed like wasted potential to me. I was really looking forward to a deep dive into the MCU's take on the Celestials and it left me pretty underwhelmed. It really didn't feel like an MCU movie to me in the end, and I don't think I need to revisit any of those characters. 5) Spider-Man: No Way Home: The best of this Phase. Leaned into the nostalgia, yes, but somehow it made it all work! 6) Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness: I'd call this one good, not great. My biggest gripe would be that I wanted some more character moments, but it seemed like it started running with the action and never gave us a chance to breathe. - NOW the Marvel TV shows on the other hand I've really been enjoying. I think the Marvel team must have their A-List team working on those. I think even the weakest Marvel TV show is better than most of the Phase 4 movies. My enjoyment of those, best to least is: [LIST] [*]Moon Knight ([I]Loved this character since I was a kid[/I]) [*]Wanda Vision [*]Ms Marvel (could beat Wanda/Moon Knight by the end) [*]Loki [*]Falcon & Winter Soldier [*]Hawkeye [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
