So I recently tore through the 10 Xmen movies. And apart from Origins, I really liked everyone of them. They were all fun. And kept me interested.

I don't feel the same way about the MCU.

Before my attempt to marathon, I watched Gardians and Avengers. Former was great, latter was decent

During my marathon, I found Iron Man to be cripplingly boring. Fell asleep to Captain America. Fell asleep to Ant Man both times.

Anyone else feel this way? I feel like I'm missing something. Everything feels so safe, sans GotG. Which is maybe why I liked it so much. The XMen movies all felt different in a way. MCU not so much.

Are there any movies I need to check out that will change my mind? Is it okay to skip around?

I heard the first two you mentioned are good. But I need to get through the first CapAm movie. That's the tough part.

Age of Ultron I did watch. It was decent. Definitely a step below the first Avengers.

Better than Deadpool and/or Logan? That's a big statement.

Okay since you saw Age of Ultron already I do recommend Winter Soldier and Civil War, they are way better than The First Avenger.

I wouldn't count those as X-Men films, those are individual characters.

I agree tbh. I really like IM1 and GotG but those are the only​ two I think at great. The rest are average and boring. The antagonist are weak and the stakes are always uninteresting or too big for me to care about. Like "OMG they're gonna destroy the world" or some shit where logically I'm just like... Obviously they aren't gonna let them destroy the world.... And obviously certain characters will be fine because they're signed on for _ many movies, already have sequels announced, etc. So there's just no stakes or anything for me to care about.

I thought Apocalypse was legit great. I was shocked to see it wasn't considered a good movie.

Last Stand... it was okay. I looked at it as campy fun. Wasn't exactly great, but fun.

No, absolutely not. Winter Solider was awesome but definitely not better than Logan and Deadpool.

90% of the Marvel movies are just bad.

They just all follow the same formula basically. Those with the most impressive action scenes are usually the ones loved by all the fans.

I'm not really into comics in general. That is probably more the issue. I enjoyed the first Iron Man, and the ones that everyone else likes. The Avengers films and Winter Soldier (even though WS was nothing special, a pretty generic action flick).

But yeah, I enjoyed the darker and "more realistic" comic book movies like Logan or the Nolan Batman movies. There is more to them imo.
Nothing exciting about 10 super heroes going at it, when you know exactly that not one of them will die.

oh yeah I always forget that one, I liked it. But I see that as more of a comedy than a serious action movie.

So not great but decent? BvS gets way to much hate. Batfleck was awesome and while the movie had its problems, I still managed to watch it 3 times.
