I wanted to create a thread because of the interesting year (and a half) the MCU has had.
While to me no film has been bad, the perception is that quality of the MCU is downward compared to what has come before it. Along with now FX artist coming out and saying they aren't being given enough time from Disney to make the best effects possible. I wanted to see what other's are thinking and share my own thoughts
So far for me I have loved Thor 4, The Dr Strange Episode in What if, Spiderman No Way Home, Moon Knight and Falcon And Winter Soldier.
I liked Dr Strange 2, Shang Chi, Ms Marvel (except the finale....) Wanda Vision and Loki
The rest I can take or leave. For me I would rather them have less but up the quality to have every film try to be Winter Solider Quality , and while many want a "goal" to me I think the themes of most the films and shows are great, its the execution that is what they need to work on. Wanda, Falcon, Winter Soilder and Dr Strange I think do a great job showing the characters post End game but other things in their films or shows got in the way of showing off how great their arc's are, in my opinion.
