Honestly I'd say Spider-Man (2002) is still my favorite Marvel film. It's not the most visually impressive, it doesn't have some brilliant script, the directing is kinda cheesy, and I think that all plays into why I love it so much. I like a superhero film that takes itself seriously and yet totally doesn't and Spider-Man did that. Stuff gets over-the-top, lines and cinematography intentionally get ridiculous at points, and I think that all adds to the excitement and how "unreal" it is. The CGI for the film still looks pretty good for being practically 14 years old and the music really captures that feeling of soaring through and running across the rooftops of the thousands of buildings in New York City. Spider-Man was meant for the large city environment and this film captured it perfectly, while also capturing kind of that not-too-serious superhero feel but keeping the story and the villain exciting. There's just something a bit mystical and magical about the film.
I know I'm in a minority when I say this, but my all time favorite has got to be Age of Ultron. I've never been able to sympathize with people's problems regarding that movie. To me, literally everything about it except MAYBE the Thor vision scene works.
Yeah I really liked it too. Some of the parts with Thor I didn't like, but besides that I liked. Not sure why some people hate it, but what are you gonna do.
+B-Mint1994 I mostly agree with you, but what about Deadpool, Guardians and Ant-man? and what's so good about avengers? it's worse than IM and WS. The only thing about that movie is that heroes first appeared together, story is stupid, Loki downgraded. What;s your thoughts?
Михаил Воробьёв I hadn't seen Gaudrians at the time this video was made. After seeing it i'd put it up there with my favorites. And I didn't love Deadpool as much as everyone else did but it was good. Ant-Man was fine but Marvel has done better. I think what made the Avengers stick out was that it was something that was never done before and most people didn't think would work. I think it was mostly the characters and their interactions with each other rather than the story that made the movie. You can have a basic story and make a great film with it (look at Gaurdians)
Spider-Man 2. Most superhero movies act as wish fulfillment. They make you want to BE that superhero. But Spider-Man 2 (and Donner's Superman films) do the opposite. They make you realize how much honor and sacrifice it takes to be a real hero (super or not). Watching Peter struggle and stumble and get back up again is what makes him a hero, not his powers.
Can't wait for comic book specific episodes. Discussions on DC movies and the MCU are pretty common place on youtube. This show could be a great introduction to what's currently happening in comics and getting people interested in reading the latest issues! I love this group podcast type discussion format! Keep it up!
In the MCU, it's probably still The Avengers. Marvel properties in general though? Definitely Spider-Man 2. Alfred freakin' Molina scared the hell out of me as a kid and I still love it.
Here's are my top 10 favourite Marvel movies: Captain America: Civil War Guardians of the Galaxy Xmen:Days of Future Past Captain America: The Winter Soldier The Avengers/Avengers:Age of Ultron Ant-Man Deadpool Spiderman 2 Spiderman X-men: First Clas
Yeah even though they're both fairly recent, I'd have to say Winter Soldier and Days of Future Past have to be my two favorite marvel movies. They just both work really well as stand alone movies while also building on their respective universe in really intelligent and unique ways. Specifically, I love how Days of Future Past basically just retcons out the movies following it in the timeline for the purpose of getting rid of all the problems with X3 and Wolverine Origins, and even the first two Bryan Singer films, as awesome as they were.
(23:34) Personally, I think the reason _Guardians of the Galaxy_ immediately showed you Baby Groot is because the film is *anti-gloom*; the whole movie spends its time (in Gunns own words) building itself up and cutting itself down. It doesn't want you to feel sad over a character dying because that's not what they're aiming for. The movie gives you those "sad" moments but it doesn't dwell on Tragedy or Despair because it *wants* to be a Comedy.
For me, at least, it's a few things. It has well developed and interesting characters that each bring something different to their scene. It then explores these characters and does so using some of the best action scenes in any superhero movie along with wonderfully clever dialogue. In many ways, it's Firefly (one of my favorite TV shows of all time) without its three main weaknesses: Joss Whedon's lack of budget, his lack of experience, or his not knowing when the end would be. These being fixed, he could give it a huge scale, a well-paced build and a fantastic pay-off. I think that's most of it, any other questions about this or my list?
Here's my top 10 favorite Marvel films of all time: 10. Ant-Man (2015) A cool superhero film that mixes "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" and turns into "Ocean's Eleven" style. 9. Iron Man (2008) Robert Downey Jr was clever as a playboy philanthropist who wears his cool metal suit. 8. X-Men: First Class (2011) I love the young cast who portrayed the old style of the X-Men crew. 7. X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) Much better premise about Wolverine is saving the world which will turn into a disaster. My personally favorite X-Men film than the original films. 6. Deadpool (2006) A very mature anti-hero who kills bunch of people, but a fun action film. 5. Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) A cool sci-fi adventure film along with five crazy people with an old school soundtrack. 4. The Avengers (2012) An awesome comic book film with greatest heroes who can assemble this shit. continue...
...continue 3. Captain America: The Winter Solder (2014) A much better comic book film that takes it all the way to the top and making Captain America a true character who understands the situation. Winner for the MCU classics. 2. The Punisher (2004) I don't care what they said, but this hardcore dark film was extremely awesome. I love Thomas Jane as Punisher, I love the action, I love the style of Punisher's setup story, and not only..."it's punishment." 1. Spider-Man 2 (2004) I understand that you love the first one, but for me the second one is more believable than the first. I love the new story where Spider-Man lost his powers, the action was amazing, the drama was tense, some were cheesy but a fun Sam Raimi comic book style, and the movie was amazing. Spider-Man 2 is still the best Marvel film of all time. Screw The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and get that bum Andrew Garfield outta here. No, Tobey Maguire is still a classic Spider-Man/Peter Parker!
+bigace89s Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World has to be a dark horse pick in that category. Good flick, bad marketing, and the world was going through a revolt against intelligence.
Captain America: The First Avenger is my favorite by far. It was an altogether well put together film that took a character that was so unbelievably cheesy and made him super kick ass and gave him so much more depth. I remember reading some of the older Captain America comics as a kid and even had some action figures, and I always thought he looked so silly. Seeing them poke fun at that silliness in the movie was a great touch.
+Tim Crowder Is pretty high up on my list, too. The Winter Soldier is even better, but part of the reason it is so good is because The First Avenger laid all the solid groundwork. If Civil War is really as good as they say, I'll declare the Captain America franchise to the best trilogy of all times.
First it was the Avengers. Then it was Guardians of the Galaxy. Then it was Winter Soldier. But the Amazing Spider-man is it hands down for me. Like I'm sorry, but Andrew Garfield stole my freaking heart as Spider-Man. And the second film when Gwen dies? No movie has ever had me balling as much as that scene did.
I'm liking the format of this. Just cut straight to the point, jump right into the discussion. Longer episodes are a good thing, to me at least. Good job, guys!
This are the top 10 greatest Marvel Movies of all time 10. Blade Trinity 9. Elektra 8. Ghost Rider 2 7. Fantastic Four: Silver Surfer 6. Spiderman 3 5. Wolverine Origins 4. Fan4stick 3. Captain America 1990 2. Thor 2 1. Howard the Duck Nah but in a serious note, you guys should make your least favorite marvel movies.
you know, dancing baby groot was literally the capstone of brilliance which perfectly ended this very good movieI don't know how you can argue it's a bad thing
Wearing a spiderman mask, playing the Spiderman song on a Clarinet.... I'll be honest I thought I was the biggest nerd ever.. I now know there is another
"What's your favorite Marvel movie?" Spider-Man: Homecoming. "But that's not out ye-" Spider-Man: Homecoming. (Though, in all seriousness, its Guardians of the Galaxy, the best movie to see with your girlfriend and celebrate both an 8 year anniversary in a long distance relationship and finally meeting face to face.)
First off you guys are awesome, so truth in advertising I guess. Secondly My favorite Marvel moves change with new releases but as of now it stands. 1) Winter Soldier 2)Guardians of the Galaxy and 3)Ant-Man (and believe me wasn't sure I would like Ant-Man it is so entertaining. and Lastly check me and my boy out at least for a minute on The Gritty Reboot on OEP Media Channel. New to the channel glad I found it
+Matthew Trecozzi Typing on the comment can not be enough to explain why I like the movie more than the Avengers I'm Sorry. [P.S. If u want to see all of my thoughts type of 'why I like it?' than reply to me and yes,I am well aware that it has it's flaws...just some of them in my opinion.]
X-Men First Class. It's the closest thing to a Magneto movie who is my favorite comic book character. It's an overall great movie. I like the focus on the cerebral and psychological plot rather than too many action scenes. I think it had a great balance.
Funny how I collected almost every deadpool comic I been a fan since I was 12 (I shouldn't have been reading deadpool at that age but whatever) and after the movie I think I was one of the few people who was like eh...
Is this show ever going to talk about comics? I don't hate it at all, but it seems weird that they'd introduce a new talk show that's like every other talk show on the internet.
+uknownada I have a strong feeling that the next few episodes are going to be heavily comic book centered. The next episode is probably going to be about DC Rebirth and how New 52 did over its lifespan. Bryan hinted at it while he was in the comic shop,
Blacknight342 I hope so. When they announced this I got excited because there aren't a lot of comic book-centered shows; they're mostly just shows about comic book-related media, such as movies and TV shows.
Talking about the best villans in MCU, I think that Killgrave is a condender. he just freaked me out, but I still loved him. I hated him so much, but loved him so much at the same time!
I haven't seen that many Marvel movies to be honest. But out of the ones I have seen, I would have to say that Blade from 1998 is my personal favorite. I think it's a kick-ass action horror movie, Wesley Snipes does a good job playing a depressed hero, there's some surprisingly touching moments... and it has Kris Kristofferson. One of the coolest old timers a movie could ever have... P.S... Where is Beth?
Captain America: The First Avenger. it was great seeing my favorite character done right and loved Chris Evans surprising me on his performance. I loved how they incorporated the 616 and ultimate cap origins. That ending I mean just wow.
My favorite marvel film is the Avengers and Deadpool. Also the best response to the parents that brought their kids to it is as the blind lady said "dumbass!"
Well, if we're talking only the stuff under Disney, I would also say GOTG, with Winter Soldier as a runner-up. Other than that, I would say the first Amazing Spider-Man if only for Andrew Garfield's stellar performance.
I'd have to say my favorite Marvel Movie, in recent years, is Deadpool. It's odd, i've never been one for blood, gore, or profanity in films however with Deadpool, it just works. It' doesn't bother me or make me squeamish like it does in other films, it is possibly due to the humor. Despite the seriousness of his story (the whole wanting to get back with the only person to make him happy thing), his quirky and over the top personality, and the fact he's insane to the point he breaks the 4th wall so much, makes it easy to disconnect from the violence and have a good time.
Guardians probably would be my favorite too. If I had one complaint about it though it the tease of Starlord and Gamora having a relationship when that relationship didn't exist in the comics. I man is it that hard to have a male lead character and a female lead character onscreen together without one or both being in a romantic relationship?
I honestly thought this show was an improvement over the last few. I work on a professional tv studio set and the only couple of sincere pointers I want to give are easy ones. 1. Face your audience. sit all on one side of the table or something like a panel. 2. Please get rid of the clarinet. 3. We need more energy and more structure. we get that you guys are having fun but watching you read your notes off a notebook seems a little disengaging. 4.Touring random comic shops is an awesome segment. Please don't hesitate to criticize me or your show. I want this to become another awesome channel awesome show.
Thanks for the response. I will concede to the clarinet. My favorite Marvel movie was Xmen. The first time seeing them on camera was a magical experience for young me after spending my whole life reading Marvel comics. I would love to hear what your favorite writers were.
My favorite Marvel film is Guardians Of The Galaxy for many reasons. It took the IP and made something way different. My bias may be showing but think that it did so many things right that none of the other films could nail down. I have not seen Civil War yet.
Aiyanna really rocked that spider Gwen hootie, hey i do not think you totally got the Imortan Joe powered scene at the initial scene of FURY ROAD. it was supposed to imply he was a hardened warrior of the wasteland at the final stages of his reing, the powder was there to lessen the pain of his soares raveneged body with was probably infected and given the scare of medicine it was part of the price for having to wear is kinda hard plastic armor wich he wore(dough it schaffend) to prevent his sores to further advanced by contac with the dust all over the wasteland
My favorite Marvel movie is Captain America: Civil War. This Movie has the best action of any superhero movie ever, the characters are well realized, the story is well told, it's emotional and it leaves you wondering what is goin to happen to the Avengers team when Infinity War happens.
Yup, Deadpool. If you'd have asked me in 2015 what my favourite Marvel movie is, I'd have basically been like "Eh, the first X-Men maybe?" The first Spiderman is a contender too, but none of them really stuck with me, that left a lasting impression of "Oh my God, this is epic, it's my favourite Marvel movie hands down." Deadpool has. I didn't know much about Deadpool before I've NEVER been into comic books AT ALL, but of course knew the mainstream super heroes like Superman, Spiderman, Batman, Hulk, Ironman, etc. Not Deadpool though, but now I do, and I think he's presently tied with Wolverine as being my favourite superhero. They're also both Canadian, so there is a bit of a biased opinion. Wolverine is from Alberta or BC, and Deadpool is from Regina, Saskatchewan. In a fight, my money is on Deadpool, because I think his healing factor might just be even better than Wolverine's, however while he's funnier and wittier, Wolverine cannot be beated for raw masculine badassery. Deadpool may be basically immortal, but in a fight, I'd want Wolverine at my side. Pretty sure he's got some Military history throughout the 20th century and possibly late 19th, so obviously he's a good shot. As long as he was trained in the Canadian Military or Canadian Army and not that riff raff down South with the Yanks. OUCH! Yeah I went there! Haha X2: Wolverine's Revenge, I recall enjoying that game IMMENSELY. The stealth, the fighting, finding the costumes, the historic comic covers, and wasn't his healing ability canceled out or stopped when he had his claws out but of course did more damage with them out? If so, that was a nice touch... now all we need is a good Deadpool game! I seen clips of the one from a couple years back, didn't he have some kind of bullshit New York accent or something? Gotta get a Canadian to portray him, or at least someone who's not going to use an American accent.
Winter Soldier is my favorite, because Cap is my favorite character and it was him being done perfectly. Good, intense story that was both interesting on it's own and as a character study. Some of the best action scenes in a superhero movie. Black Widow was used incredibly, and it just hit on all the notes it needed to. Batman Begins is probably second. I like it more than TDK simply because it felt more like Gotham City to me than any other Batman movie. Neeson was a solid villain and seeing Batman training and everything was really neat. Days of Future Past is my third. Just thought it was so cool seeing reboot and original series put together like that, and it was an interesting story to boot.
Deadpool took the cake for me. I'm not one to enjoy a lot of blood and violence, but Deadpool did it perfectly, everything in the film had a reason to be there. I hope they keep the same writers and director and everyone who had a large part in its creation going forward. It was up there with Guardians of the Galaxy for me (perhaps even surpassing it?).
Hey, Walter, could you do a group commentary/discussion about the comic book movie fan wars that are happening right now? I know it's been happening for a while, but, I believe the war's at its peak with people already seeing BvS, they're about to see CA:CW, and DC fans are calling out critics for being bias and having an anti-DC agenda.
+John Kreczko The DC movies mostly bombed because they lack action and comedy. Batman VS superman was dull, with about 30 minutes of fighting at the end. That's stupidly dull! They are more like "Movie with Batman VS Superman" than "Movie based on a comic where batman and superman fought." Plus marvel has a highly diverse cast of characters that can be translated into more relatable characters in movies. You know how the movies will end in both cases, "The good guy wins" but with superman, he is REALLY hard to kill or make him struggle. However, the closest thing Marvel gets to that is Thor, and even then he has a lot of pride and is arrogant, which are flaws, which make him relatable to some. This is why Marvel trumps them in movies, more relatable characters. DC characters in movies often have crazy sad pasts that, though they are similar to the comics, are hard to relate to. That is, in their main cast. EIther the characters have little to relate to, are to perfect it is hard to relate to them, or both. Superman had his family blown up with his home planet. Batman saw his parents die in front of him. Iron man had drinking problems, Captain America's loved one died before he got to marry her, most of the X-men have issues that can be related to, (Rouge being one of the stand outs) especially if you are treated badly because of a physical, or mental disorder.Antman was a thief trying to be back into society. People don't like to hire people who have a bad background, and it's realistic.The craziest backstory of the avengers in the movies (probably) would be Hawkeye. A boy from iowa with a drunk father who died, being adopted to a WORSE father, only to be taken by circus performers who are bad guys... I think that's his backstory. That is still more realistic than Batman living when his parents were killed. Did the guy only have 2 bullets? Why would he leave a witness! This is why Marvel movies are better, their flaws are easier to show off in movies than DC character flaws.
Winter Soldier is like, totes the bomb for me. But the day that I'll be able to see Chris Evans and RDJ next to a talking tree and raccoon... let's just say I'll be very amused.
My favorite Marvel Movie is Captain America: Winter Soldier. This was a movie, after the Avengers that managed to have Avengers feel without all the Avengers in it!! You also had the vision in the movie to focus the plot on the Winter Soldier which for someone like me who was just dabbling his toes in the pool of true comics, has the added twist of being the best friend Bucky Barnes and the awesomeness of a almost batman-esque Villain, because Winter Soldier may be augmented, but it's his sharper mind and better planning that allow him to stand toe-to-toe with Cap's speed and power. And not least, Black Widow!!! I tell all people that will hear it that this is almost the Black Widow movie we may never get to see solo, because Black Widow and Captain do so much of this alone that you can really see where she's crucial to the Avengers and more. She's got the brains to help Steve Rogers with evading Shield early, and the spy skills to fool Hydra and stand tall in a huge cluster of danger..The best of it, is this starts a trend that really solidifies her as the leader type..so that by the time we see her in Ultron, as one who trains the New Avengers, we know there's few people better suited to the role.
It's to bad that they made this list before Captain America Civil War was released because that movie is really good and might be my favorite Marvel comic book movie. I also love The Avengers, Deadpool, and guardians of the galaxy
5: Captain America: Civil War/Guardians of the Galaxy 4: Deadpool 3: X-Men: Days of Future Past 2: The Dark Knight 1: Spider-Man (both originals and Amazing movies)
Sorry, just my list of my favourite superhero movies. I just couldn't leave TDK off the list, regardless of it not being Marvel or not. Also, it's my opinion :/
Top 10 Marvel movies Captain America: Civil War Spider-Man 2 Captain America: Winter Soldier X-Men: Days of Future Past Iron-Man Deadpool Guardians of The Galaxy X2: X-Men United Spider-Man X-Men: First Class
I guess this was why. Because in December when he ended it, he was already working as a Channel Awesome intern for 3 months. That may have been when he was offered the spot
Let's be honest: it's *tough to choose* when it comes to Marvel movies because there are so many good movies to choose from. I love the first _Avengers_ movie but I also love _Age of Ultron_. I think _Winter Soldier_ is a legitimately Great film, but so is _Guardians of the Galaxy_ (critics have called it the "Most Auteur-driven Film of 2014"). I honestly can't choose.
That is a tough one. So many of the good ones up there. Winter Soldier? That was great. Guardians? Awesome. Avengers? A special movie. Any of those three really. It's a tough call.
Dang... If I have to break it down by age/ decade: 90's- Blade (go comic book shop guy for agreeing with me!), Early 00's- X-men, Late 00's- Captain America, 10-15 - Guardians of the Galaxy, 16-20 (at the moment)- DEADPOOL
"The 2015 Fantastic Four reboot was awesome." - said no one ever.
+The Engie That Cried Nope my parents di say it.......no comments
+Ravika Azahra ningrum Nice joke.
grace randolph liked it
+Robert Lynch you're kidding. Yet I believe it
+The Engie That Cried Nope I actually like the Tim Story movies
Honestly I'd say Spider-Man (2002) is still my favorite Marvel film. It's not the most visually impressive, it doesn't have some brilliant script, the directing is kinda cheesy, and I think that all plays into why I love it so much. I like a superhero film that takes itself seriously and yet totally doesn't and Spider-Man did that. Stuff gets over-the-top, lines and cinematography intentionally get ridiculous at points, and I think that all adds to the excitement and how "unreal" it is. The CGI for the film still looks pretty good for being practically 14 years old and the music really captures that feeling of soaring through and running across the rooftops of the thousands of buildings in New York City. Spider-Man was meant for the large city environment and this film captured it perfectly, while also capturing kind of that not-too-serious superhero feel but keeping the story and the villain exciting. There's just something a bit mystical and magical about the film.
Garret I am a big fun of yours
+George Porge fan*
I say Spiderman 2
+Garrett Williamson Agreed sir.
The first Spiderman movie with Tobey Maguire, Captain America: Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy.
For me Winter Soldier is THE BEST Marvel movie so far. Can't wait to watch Civil War!
Same such a badass movie
For me the original 2 Spider-Man movies. I fucking love those movies
jk simmons will always be j jonah jameson.
I know I'm in a minority when I say this, but my all time favorite has got to be Age of Ultron. I've never been able to sympathize with people's problems regarding that movie. To me, literally everything about it except MAYBE the Thor vision scene works.
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!!!!!!
Age of Ultron was awesome
i just can't ignore the fact that it was a commercial
Yeah I really liked it too. Some of the parts with Thor I didn't like, but besides that I liked. Not sure why some people hate it, but what are you gonna do.
I being one of those haters want to say that i enjoyed it but it was a mess and no characters had archs
Crossover with Linkara from "A Top The 4th Wall"
That be just epic if you guys got him on your show
Don't have a single favorite but Winter Soldier, Avengers, Days of Future Past, Spider-Man 1 & 2, Iron Man, and X2 are my favorite Marvel movies.
+B-Mint1994 I mostly agree with you, but what about Deadpool, Guardians and Ant-man?
and what's so good about avengers? it's worse than IM and WS. The only thing about that movie is that heroes first appeared together, story is stupid, Loki downgraded. What;s your thoughts?

Freaking David Tennant was amazing as a villain, who knew?

+Robert McAllister i forgot about it, thats definitely a great pick
my favorite marvel films are. 1. Deadpool 2. GOTG 3. Captain America Winter Solider 4. Avengers 5. Ironman
Captain America: The First Avenger is my favorite by far. It was an altogether well put together film that took a character that was so unbelievably cheesy and made him super kick ass and gave him so much more depth.

Seeing them poke fun at that silliness in the movie was a great touch.
+Tim Crowder Is pretty high up on my list, too. The Winter Soldier is even better, but part of the reason it is so good is because The First Avenger laid all the solid groundwork. If Civil War is really as good as they say, I'll declare the Captain America franchise to the best trilogy of all times.
First it was the Avengers. Then it was Guardians of the Galaxy. Then it was Winter Soldier.
But the Amazing Spider-man is it hands down for me. Like I'm sorry, but Andrew Garfield stole my freaking heart as Spider-Man. And the second film when Gwen dies? No movie has ever had me balling as much as that scene did.
I'm liking the format of this. Just cut straight to the point, jump right into the discussion. Longer episodes are a good thing, to me at least. Good job, guys!

MCU: Winter Soldier with Iron Man 1 closely behind
Non-MCU: Spider-Man 2 (the Sam Raimi one)
My fav is and always will be The Avengers
Wearing a spiderman mask, playing the Spiderman song on a Clarinet.... I'll be honest I thought I was the biggest nerd ever.. I now know there is another
Bathing scene? the guy is literally bathing in the bloods of his enemies. How can you not love that!
I overheard someone at my college dorm talking about how they were really dissapointed with Deadpool and thought it was a bad movie.
+pjsmith97 i didn't like it very much
Winter Soldier is by far my all-time favorite. at least until Civil War comes out.
+GoodVsEvil1314 Yeah, I also thought "ask me again in one week". For now it's winter soldier and Gotg.
+swanpride yep and yep
"What's your favorite Marvel movie?"
Spider-Man: Homecoming.
"But that's not out ye-"
Spider-Man: Homecoming.
(Though, in all seriousness, its Guardians of the Galaxy, the best movie to see with your girlfriend and celebrate both an 8 year anniversary in a long distance relationship and finally meeting face to face.)
First off you guys are awesome, so truth in advertising I guess. Secondly My favorite Marvel moves change with new releases but as of now it stands. 1) Winter Soldier 2)Guardians of the Galaxy and 3)Ant-Man (and believe me wasn't sure I would like Ant-Man it is so entertaining. and Lastly check me and my boy out at least for a minute on The Gritty Reboot on OEP Media Channel. New to the channel glad I found it
That opening was so awesome.
Top 5 Fav. Marvel Movie:
1.Avengers:AOU
2.Avengers
3.Iron Man
4.Spider-Man [2002 Ver.] & The 2nd S-M [2004 Ver.]
5.Blade
+Momo Woods Why do you like Avengers: AOU over Avengers? just curious.
+Matthew Trecozzi Typing on the comment can not be enough to explain why I like the movie more than the Avengers I'm Sorry. [P.S. If u want to see all of my thoughts type of 'why I like it?' than reply to me and yes,I am well aware that it has it's flaws...just some of them in my opinion.]
X-Men First Class.
It's the closest thing to a Magneto movie who is my favorite comic book character. It's an overall great movie. I like the focus on the cerebral and psychological plot rather than too many action scenes. I think it had a great balance.
1) GOTG
2) CW: TWS
3) A: AOU
4) The Avengers
5) IM1
Guilty pleasure: 2003 Hulk movie.
Funny how I collected almost every deadpool comic I been a fan since I was 12 (I shouldn't have been reading deadpool at that age but whatever) and after the movie I think I was one of the few people who was like eh...
Hey! They named all of my favorite Marvel movies. Awesome!
Is this show ever going to talk about comics? I don't hate it at all, but it seems weird that they'd introduce a new talk show that's like every other talk show on the internet.
+uknownada I have a strong feeling that the next few episodes are going to be heavily comic book centered. The next episode is probably going to be about DC Rebirth and how New 52 did over its lifespan. Bryan hinted at it while he was in the comic shop,
Blacknight342 I hope so. When they announced this I got excited because there aren't a lot of comic book-centered shows; they're mostly just shows about comic book-related media, such as movies and TV shows.
Talking about the best villans in MCU, I think that Killgrave is a condender. he just freaked me out, but I still loved him. I hated him so much, but loved him so much at the same time!
+BumbusBumbi I definitely agree with you. He was the best part of that show and definitely super creepy!
I haven't seen that many Marvel movies to be honest. But out of the ones I have seen, I would have to say that Blade from 1998 is my personal favorite. I think it's a kick-ass action horror movie, Wesley Snipes does a good job playing a depressed hero, there's some surprisingly touching moments... and it has Kris Kristofferson. One of the coolest old timers a movie could ever have...
P.S... Where is Beth?
I agree. The Blade movies were awesome.
+CosmicG777 Well, I don't have anything positive to say about the third one...
But oh yeah, the first two are definitely awesome!
Captain America: The First Avenger.
it was great seeing my favorite character done right and loved Chris Evans surprising me on his performance. I loved how they incorporated the 616 and ultimate cap origins. That ending I mean just wow.
My favorite marvel film is the Avengers and Deadpool. Also the best response to the parents that brought their kids to it is as the blind lady said "dumbass!"
Well, if we're talking only the stuff under Disney, I would also say GOTG, with Winter Soldier as a runner-up.
Other than that, I would say the first Amazing Spider-Man if only for Andrew Garfield's stellar performance.
it's close but GOTG slightly beats out Deadpool but both are fantastic
Colossus address deadpool several times as a duel person, hinting at the split personality.
"bolth of you."
I'd have to say my favorite Marvel Movie, in recent years, is Deadpool. It's odd, i've never been one for blood, gore, or profanity in films however with Deadpool, it just works. It' doesn't bother me or make me squeamish like it does in other films, it is possibly due to the humor. Despite the seriousness of his story (the whole wanting to get back with the only person to make him happy thing), his quirky and over the top personality, and the fact he's insane to the point he breaks the 4th wall so much, makes it easy to disconnect from the violence and have a good time.
Why is Aiyana so beautiful ?
My favorite is probably... Ant-Man. -@Kayube
Also Walter excellent choice with Ultimate Spiderman its one of my personal favorites.
Guardians probably would be my favorite too. If I had one complaint about it though it the tease of Starlord and Gamora having a relationship when that relationship didn't exist in the comics. I man is it that hard to have a male lead character and a female lead character onscreen together without one or both being in a romantic relationship?
So finally we get some comic talk and it's just recommended stuff at the end to read.
Not even a discussion on what happens in said books.
I honestly thought this show was an improvement over the last few. I work on a professional tv studio set and the only couple of sincere pointers I want to give are easy ones.
1. Face your audience. sit all on one side of the table or something like a panel.
2. Please get rid of the clarinet.
3. We need more energy and more structure. we get that you guys are having fun but watching you read your notes off a notebook seems a little disengaging.
4.Touring random comic shops is an awesome segment.
Please don't hesitate to criticize me or your show. I want this to become another awesome channel awesome show.
+TheMorovian Thanks for the suggestions! We want to hear from you guys about stuff like this. The clarinet stays though. Haha.
Thanks for the response. I will concede to the clarinet. My favorite Marvel movie was Xmen. The first time seeing them on camera was a magical experience for young me after spending my whole life reading Marvel comics. I would love to hear what your favorite writers were.
Ant-Man replaced Spider-Man 2 for me as my favorite Marvel live action film.
Spiderman 2! My god the first 15 minutes are film gold.
My favorite Marvel film is Guardians Of The Galaxy for many reasons. It took the IP and made something way different.
My bias may be showing but think that it did so many things right that none of the other films could nail down.
I have not seen Civil War yet.
My top five favorites currently are:
5. Iron man 1
4. X-men: Days of future past
3. Avengers 1
2. Deadpool
1. Guardians of the Galaxy
Personally I'd like to see more smaller single focus comic book movies again that will refer theses Multi cameo comic book movies.
did the host play zack snyder in the batman v superman review?
+Nicholas Palmieri Yes.
Yes :)
Aiyanna really rocked that spider Gwen hootie, hey i do not think you totally got the Imortan Joe powered scene at the initial scene of FURY ROAD. it was supposed to imply he was a hardened warrior of the wasteland at the final stages of his reing, the powder was there to lessen the pain of his soares raveneged body with was probably infected and given the scare of medicine it was part of the price for having to wear is kinda hard plastic armor wich he wore(dough it schaffend) to prevent his sores to further advanced by contac with the dust all over the wasteland
My favorite Marvel movie is Captain America: Civil War. This Movie has the best action of any superhero movie ever, the characters are well realized, the story is well told, it's emotional and it leaves you wondering what is goin to happen to the Avengers team when Infinity War happens.
Finally, someone who loves the first spiderman movie the most!
It always seems to be slept on when in comparison to Spider-Man 2.
Which i really dont understand, personally think spiderman is a superior film
+Axion Same.
Yup, Deadpool. If you'd have asked me in 2015 what my favourite Marvel movie is, I'd have basically been like "Eh, the first X-Men maybe?" The first Spiderman is a contender too, but none of them really stuck with me, that left a lasting impression of "Oh my God, this is epic, it's my favourite Marvel movie hands down." Deadpool has. I didn't know much about Deadpool before I've NEVER been into comic books AT ALL, but of course knew the mainstream super heroes like Superman, Spiderman, Batman, Hulk, Ironman, etc. Not Deadpool though, but now I do, and I think he's presently tied with Wolverine as being my favourite superhero. They're also both Canadian, so there is a bit of a biased opinion. Wolverine is from Alberta or BC, and Deadpool is from Regina, Saskatchewan.
In a fight, my money is on Deadpool, because I think his healing factor might just be even better than Wolverine's, however while he's funnier and wittier, Wolverine cannot be beated for raw masculine badassery. Deadpool may be basically immortal, but in a fight, I'd want Wolverine at my side. Pretty sure he's got some Military history throughout the 20th century and possibly late 19th, so obviously he's a good shot. As long as he was trained in the Canadian Military or Canadian Army and not that riff raff down South with the Yanks. OUCH! Yeah I went there! Haha
X2: Wolverine's Revenge, I recall enjoying that game IMMENSELY. The stealth, the fighting, finding the costumes, the historic comic covers, and wasn't his healing ability canceled out or stopped when he had his claws out but of course did more damage with them out? If so, that was a nice touch... now all we need is a good Deadpool game! I seen clips of the one from a couple years back, didn't he have some kind of bullshit New York accent or something? Gotta get a Canadian to portray him, or at least someone who's not going to use an American accent.
Hey Aiyanna, due to your red hair and love of batgirl, you seem like a Barbara Gordon fan, but which batgirl do you like?
Anyway to listen to these in podcast form?
+Johnathan Howard Not yet, but we're working on it!
+Awesome_Walter sweet, I'm enjoying it would love to listen to you guys talk while I walk or jog.
Winter Soldier is my favorite, because Cap is my favorite character and it was him being done perfectly. Good, intense story that was both interesting on it's own and as a character study. Some of the best action scenes in a superhero movie. Black Widow was used incredibly, and it just hit on all the notes it needed to.
Batman Begins is probably second. I like it more than TDK simply because it felt more like Gotham City to me than any other Batman movie. Neeson was a solid villain and seeing Batman training and everything was really neat.
Days of Future Past is my third. Just thought it was so cool seeing reboot and original series put together like that, and it was an interesting story to boot.
Definitely Captain America the Winter Soldier. From beginning to end I was engrossed and I continue to return to it.
Deadpool took the cake for me. I'm not one to enjoy a lot of blood and violence, but Deadpool did it perfectly, everything in the film had a reason to be there. I hope they keep the same writers and director and everyone who had a large part in its creation going forward. It was up there with Guardians of the Galaxy for me (perhaps even surpassing it?).
I´m between Guardians of the Galaxy and Iron Man 2, i actually liked a lot Ivan as a villain, it's a shame they cut so many scenes of him.
Hey, Walter, could you do a group commentary/discussion about the comic book movie fan wars that are happening right now? I know it's been happening for a while, but, I believe the war's at its peak with people already seeing BvS, they're about to see CA:CW, and DC fans are calling out critics for being bias and having an anti-DC agenda.
+John Kreczko The DC movies mostly bombed because they lack action and comedy. Batman VS superman was dull, with about 30 minutes of fighting at the end. That's stupidly dull! They are more like "Movie with Batman VS Superman" than "Movie based on a comic where batman and superman fought." Plus marvel has a highly diverse cast of characters that can be translated into more relatable characters in movies. You know how the movies will end in both cases, "The good guy wins" but with superman, he is REALLY hard to kill or make him struggle. However, the closest thing Marvel gets to that is Thor, and even then he has a lot of pride and is arrogant, which are flaws, which make him relatable to some. This is why Marvel trumps them in movies, more relatable characters. DC characters in movies often have crazy sad pasts that, though they are similar to the comics, are hard to relate to. That is, in their main cast. EIther the characters have little to relate to, are to perfect it is hard to relate to them, or both. Superman had his family blown up with his home planet. Batman saw his parents die in front of him. Iron man had drinking problems, Captain America's loved one died before he got to marry her, most of the X-men have issues that can be related to, (Rouge being one of the stand outs) especially if you are treated badly because of a physical, or mental disorder.Antman was a thief trying to be back into society. People don't like to hire people who have a bad background, and it's realistic.The craziest backstory of the avengers in the movies (probably) would be Hawkeye. A boy from iowa with a drunk father who died, being adopted to a WORSE father, only to be taken by circus performers who are bad guys... I think that's his backstory. That is still more realistic than Batman living when his parents were killed. Did the guy only have 2 bullets? Why would he leave a witness! This is why Marvel movies are better, their flaws are easier to show off in movies than DC character flaws.
Theinsanegamer10 I wasn't talking about the movies, I'm talking about the fans.
John Kreczko And I explained why DC movies are just worse on almost every occasion.
+John Kreczko I'd like to have some sort of debate on the show eventually. Stay tuned!
Guardians of the Galaxy. Chris Pratt as Star Lord and that sound track! ^.^
Winter Soldier is like, totes the bomb for me. But the day that I'll be able to see Chris Evans and RDJ next to a talking tree and raccoon... let's just say I'll be very amused.
Guardians of the Galaxy is mine as well
I'm conflicted as to whether I enjoyed Guardians or Deadpool more, but I think I enjoyed Deadpool a tad more (seriously, for me it only just won)
AstrosGamer Yeah Marvel does well with their comedy movies
My favorite Marvel Movie is Captain America: Winter Soldier. This was a movie, after the Avengers that managed to have Avengers feel without all the Avengers in it!! You also had the vision in the movie to focus the plot on the Winter Soldier which for someone like me who was just dabbling his toes in the pool of true comics, has the added twist of being the best friend Bucky Barnes and the awesomeness of a almost batman-esque Villain, because Winter Soldier may be augmented, but it's his sharper mind and better planning that allow him to stand toe-to-toe with Cap's speed and power.
And not least, Black Widow!!! I tell all people that will hear it that this is almost the Black Widow movie we may never get to see solo, because Black Widow and Captain do so much of this alone that you can really see where she's crucial to the Avengers and more. She's got the brains to help Steve Rogers with evading Shield early, and the spy skills to fool Hydra and stand tall in a huge cluster of danger..The best of it, is this starts a trend that really solidifies her as the leader type..so that by the time we see her in Ultron, as one who trains the New Avengers, we know there's few people better suited to the role.
Captain America: Winter Solider is mine.
The Winter Soldier is my favorite by far. the scene where Cap sits down with Peggy gets me every time. I can't forget that scene
But Peggy will
+L LeDuc They should just call you the Winter Soldier cuz that was cold!!!
I really like this guys, more awesome comics.
It's to bad that they made this list before Captain America Civil War was released because that movie is really good and might be my favorite Marvel comic book movie. I also love The Avengers, Deadpool, and guardians of the galaxy
5: Captain America: Civil War/Guardians of the Galaxy
4: Deadpool
3: X-Men: Days of Future Past
2: The Dark Knight
1: Spider-Man (both originals and Amazing movies)
Dark Knight is not Marvel or good

Not only my favourite Marvel movie but also my favourite superhero movie (as well as TDK) and in my top 5 movies of all time.
It's great to see Walter again. I really hated that Reel Reviews ended.
I guess this was why. Because in December when he ended it, he was already working as a Channel Awesome intern for 3 months. That may have been when he was offered the spot
+5carecrow94 Hello Reel Viewers!
That was a really good Kermit.
Let's be honest: it's *tough to choose* when it comes to Marvel movies because there are so many good movies to choose from.
I love the first _Avengers_ movie but I also love _Age of Ultron_. I think _Winter Soldier_ is a legitimately Great film, but so is _Guardians of the Galaxy_ (critics have called it the "Most Auteur-driven Film of 2014").
I honestly can't choose.
my favorite is Winter Solider
thank you for the bit about Deadpool, I work at a theater and I hated giving refunds ro stupid parents not paying attention to the rating.
Best Marvel movie Never made:
Josh Trank's Fantastic Four
My fav Marvel film is Winter Soldier and I feel it best one out of all of them so far.
That is a tough one. So many of the good ones up there. Winter Soldier? That was great. Guardians? Awesome. Avengers? A special movie.
Any of those three really. It's a tough call.
Dang... If I have to break it down by age/ decade: 90's- Blade (go comic book shop guy for agreeing with me!), Early 00's- X-men, Late 00's- Captain America, 10-15 - Guardians of the Galaxy, 16-20 (at the moment)- DEADPOOL
Im going with punisher 2004 with thomas jane and john travolta with the best origin story in movies: "this is not revenge..."
It's punishement.
