    MCU Timeline: Film Seventeen

    One of the more well-done origin stories in the MCU. Black Panther was a character most people likely weren’t terribly familiar with (myself include) when this film came out. He’d been introduced in Civil War, but we didn’t know a ton about him. This film answers most questions and is a lot of fun throughout. Great job by Ryan Coogler and everyone involved to make a superhero who wasn’t well known an absolute fan favorite.

    MCU Timeline: Film Eleven

    This movie is very clearly different than others in the MCU so far, yet it fits in so nicely. A purposefully fun movie, characters that most people likely weren’t familiar with, and the Power Stone! I love that the Guardians got some well-deserved shine!

    Pros: Visual effects, legitimately funny moments, an entirely new group of characters, Yondu’s arrow (which might be my favorite weapon/ability in the MCU because it’s so unique). The soundtrack is fantastic. Howard…
