I wouldn't say I am a big movie buff but I do have a lot of favourite films and I have been listing them for a few months. You can read about my favourite action movies, Sci-Fi movies, my favourite Animated movies and my favourite musical movies and my favourite disaster movies. In the run up to Halloween I shared my favourite scary movies and the week after I shared my not so scary movies which were more up my street for the spooky season, in the run up to Christmas I shared my favourite Christmas movies my favourite sport movies, I had my favourite movies to cry to then there was my top 5 movies that traumatised me as a child and most recently I shared my favourite summer movies.
This time it's all about Marvel movies, it has been a long time coming simply because it has taken me so long to pick my top 5. I love the Marvel movies, admittedly some of them are not as great as others but I've watched them all, more than once!
Avengers: Endgame (2019)
Avengers: Endgame is not just a movie, it's an event! This epic conclusion to the Infinity Saga brings together over a decade of storytelling ending in a showdown that sees Earth's mightiest heroes facing off against Thanos, the Mad Titan. The film's emotional weight, coupled with jaw dropping action sequences and fan favourite moments, makes it one of my favourite movies ever!!
Every Christmas I wrap one of the girls presents watching Avengers: Infinity War and the next day I will wrap the rest of the presents watching Endgame! They are the perfect length. I never get bored of watching and Spiderman makes me cry every time!
Black Panther (2018)
Black Panther" is a ground breaking film that transcends the superhero genre. Directed by Ryan Coogler it was the first Marvel movie to feature a predominantly Black cast and crew, bringing African culture and heritage to the forefront of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film’s exploration of identity, leadership and social responsibility resonated deeply with audiences and critics alike.
I loved how beautiful Wakanda was, the storytelling was just brilliant but what makes it sad is that Chadwick Boseman the man who played Black Panther sadly passed away from cancer before the 2nd movie was filmed which will always make the first one my favourite.
Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)
Spider-Man No Way Home is a love letter to fans of the webslinger, uniting different generations of Spider Man movies into a single narrative. The film explores the consequences of Peter Parker’s dual life as a hero and a teenager, blending nostalgia with a fresh, engaging story. The return of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield as their respective Spider Men is a total cinematic event!
I have loved all the Spiderman movies but this one is my favourite just for all the old Spiderman. hehehe Doctor Strange is in it, I am not his biggest fan but there was just enough of him to add that little extra to the movie!
Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
Guardians of the Galaxy was a gamble that paid off spectacularly. Directed by James Gunn, this film introduced audiences to a ragtag group of misfits and turned them into beloved characters. With its unique blend of humour, heart, and a killer soundtrack Guardians of the Galaxy brought a refreshing change of pace to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
I always think of the likes of Iron Man, Doctor Strange, Captain America and even Thor as the grown ups of Marvel and the Guardians as the naughty kids. They are just brilliant, they never fail to make me laugh out loud.
Iron Man (2008)
Iron Man is where it all began. The film launched the Marvel Cinematic Universe and set the tone for what was to come. Robert Downey Jr.’s portrayal of Tony Stark/Iron Man was a game changer, bringing charisma, humour, and depth to the role. The film’s blend of cutting edge visual effects, sharp dialogue, and character driven storytelling made it an instant classic.
Iron Man was the first ever Marvel movie which I watched and that is what got me into the superhero genre. He is just brilliant!!
Do you like Marvel movies? Which is your favourite?
Vic and Sophia are huge Marvel fans, and Star Wars, and just about anything that has a superhero or robot in it! Me, not so much but I suffer through if one comes out at Christmas and that ends up being our family movie outing. The things I do for love of family, lol! I'm going to go back on your links and check out your favorites. I love disaster movies, there are quite a few on You Tube although the special effects are sometimes a bit iffy.
ReplyDeleteI do love iron man so much fun x
ReplyDeleteI do like Marvel movies; while I hate Tony Stark as this obnoxious rich person I do think Robert Downey Jr. did a great job playing him and I find the movies funny because of his interactions with all the side characters. And I enjoy Guardians of the Galaxy too.
