I am doing the same with my wife and I could barely make it through IM3. Thor 2 at least held my interest at times (but still was terrible).
We should have known Thor 2 was in trouble when people who were supposed to direct it took one look at the script and decided to sit that one out.
After working our way through all of the MCU movies with my wife, she requested that we go back and watch all the shows. Just finished Agents of Shield and she loved it. Great show. Have also watched Agent Carter, which she also loved. Now moving on to Daredevil. Two episodes in and she’s not feeling it. Obviously I’m going to continue, but is there another show that she might like along the lines of AoS and AC?
Sadly nothing that's exactly like AoS and Agent Carter, those 2 shows were basically tied together in their own corner of the MCU, Agent Carter was made as a short mini series in between the midseason breaks of Agents of Shield made for network TV. The Netflix shows don't really have the same feel. Falcon and Winter Soldier however, should be right up your alley if you guys liked AoS/AC.
All the Netflix shows have more of the Dark Knight trilogy type feel to them as opposed to the normal MCU stuff. Some of them are really good (especially DD), but they're not for everyone.
Yeah a lot of the Netflix shows are way too boring to hold up to the rest of the MCU or the Disney shows.
The first season of Jessica Jones was fantastic. David Tennant was absolutely perfect as Kilgrave. It just fell apart after that first season.
The Inhumans show was fucking terrible and nobody should even pretend its a thing. Cloak and Dagger is more like the Netflix shows than AoS or AC.
DareDevil was excellent, all of it. Jessica Jones season 1 is excellent. The rest can be skipped with no issues.
rewatched civil war to refresh on zemo and sharon but thought... outside of endgame, are the airport and cap & bucky vs tony the two best fight scenes in the saga? the shield drop by cap hits so hard
Clearly up there with the elites. Scenes to think about: Any scene on Titan. BP casino scene. IW train station. Ragnarok (Contest of Champions and bridge scene). Bucky v Steve. And don’t forget original Avengers, Tony shooting the beam off the shield :knucklebite:,
On that note, I need a #SnyderCut of Thanos v Strange. Just 3+ hours of those 2 kicking each other’s ass.
Mantis power level underrated; overpowered the wills of Thanos and Ego for an extended amount of time
Man, I will never forget the giddiness I felt watching IW for the first time and seeing the Maw bust out Mephisto’s speech word for word from Thanos Quest. I knew that whole movie would be nails from that second forward.
