I know I was in the wrong thread.

Thanks

Captain America was a big bowl of meh.

First Class was the better flick.

The Green Hornet was better than both.

While I enjoyed First Class, First Avenger was more enjoyable to me and that's coming from a long time Uncanny X-Men fan.

IMO, First Class should have been Angel, Beast, Iceman, Cyclops & Marvel Girl.

Loved all 3. Hard to pick 1 over the others.

I still love both TFA and FC.
While being much less super-heroic then TFA, FC had better action and soundtrack to behold on a big screen.

Thor was ok overall but too boring most of its time.

First Class by a mile. I was really disappointed by Captain America, I just found it really dull. I've yet to see The Winter Soldier though.

I would give Cap the top spot because it had the best villain And great acting, compared to the other two.

Yea, I always felt FC could have been a much better movie if it was a complete reboot with the original team, but then we probably wouldn’t have gotten DOFP if that were the case.

Yeah, I would have preferred the original team from the comics, but considering they didn't want to do a straight-up reboot the earlier films removed that possibility. I picked First Class. I thought it was surprisingly good, despite the odd character choices. As a long time Cap fan, TFA was a bit of a let-down for me apart from Evans and the great villain (best villain in the MCU so far IMO), but Winter Soldier has more than made up for the faults of TFA.

I think Hugo did a great job as Red Skull, but I don’t think he was particularly written that well, personally I think Loki (Thor 1) has been the best written villain of the MCU films so far and Hiddleston did a great job.

Weird poll to come out in 2014, almost 2015, but I voted X-men First Class. However I do enjoy that first Cap film.

First Class had one of the worst film posters in film history....but it's a great film.

Yeah that's a possibility but I bet we would have gotten DOFP eventually.

DOFP erased many past sins, except that awful poster and concept art

First Class > Thor > Captain America 1

But I enjoyed all three.

Both were good but First Class was better

Yeah same here. Of this decade 2011 had the best quality for CBMs until 2014 came
