Black Widow really good but could have been better, Taskmaster was wasted. All were fun though, like most Marvel movies. Eternals was the weakest (It should have been a Disney+ show, just too much going on to be a movie. It needed more time to tell its story). Doctor Strange catches a lot of flak but I liked that it leaned into Sam Rami's B-horror movie background and that it wrapped up WandaVision better than the TV show did. Between Eternals & Multiverse of Madness we saw Marvel stepping out of their comfort zone and I think we need more of that because most MCU movies have become very formulaic.I think we put too much of a shine on the pre-Endgame movies, there were a lot of movies there and many were no better than the current crop. I love Thor but his first two movies weren't great, nor were Iron Man 2 & 3. Hulk has its problems, and in Captain America: The First Avenger he didn't fight any Nazi's during WW2. Civil War (Avengers 2.5) was mostly spectacle that wasted its opportunity to more thoroughly follow up on Winter Soldier (my favorite MCU movie).  I'm a huge Captain Marvel fan and love Brie Larson in the role but that movie also could have been stronger. (I'm not crapping on any of them, I think even the worst MCU movie is entertaining).The TV shows have been hit or miss as well. So far Ms. Marvel has been really good. Hawkeye was also pretty good. WandaVision was great until the last episode where all of the psychological drama was wrapped up with a superhero fight, yawn. Who were the bad guys in Falcon & The Winter Soldier and why should I have any empathy for them? Drop them and the show was pretty good. Loki was a lot of fun until the exposition heavy finale. Moon Knight (one of my favorite Marvel Heroes) was really good, but I felt robbed by them skipping out on some of the later fight scenes, what started out as a cool storytelling tool was annoying at the end; and Mr. Knight was a wasted character. What If? was tons of fun.</blockquote>
