    Thunderbolts and Fantastic Four were both really good. Actually, I thought Ironheart was really good too.

    It really feels like every other movie since Endgame has been really good or really bad.

    Ant-Man 3, The Marvels, and Captain America 4 were various degrees of not good.

    Echo and Secret Invasion weren’t good either (actually, I think overall the shows have had a better track record overall).

      With Ironheart, the show is okay, but there’s just no way to make the main character work. Unless they transition the character to be a villain.

      Fantastic Four is good? I’ll have to see it at some point, then. Those poor characters have never managed to be in a good movie before now, so I kinda forgot there was a new MCU one.

        It’s pretty much the perfect Fantastic Four movie. They’re actually characters in this one instead of caricatures of their main personality traits.

        And it’s lighter on action and heavier on the story. Without giving away too much, it feels a lot more appropriate for the characters.

      I agree. I haven’t seen Thunderbolts yet, but I just saw Fantastic Four last night and thought it was actually really good compared to a lot of the other recent Marvel movies. Even the ones I liked all felt like they had the same script more or less, but this one it seemed like they went for less action and easy jokes and just focused on the characters and the story. I liked it a lot.
