There is no such thing as possession in C3G, but I'm pretty sure that was q's own unique design.

[Blink]

Ok. Sorry.

No issue. It's something we all have to come to terms with. It's hard to not show favoritism for a design that you brainstormed and/or LD'd, but ultimately, they belong to the group as a whole and not an individual.

[Blink]

That's true.

Thank you very much, actually, that answers my question!

Saw Ant-Man. Didn't really care for it. Some stuff worked, some stuff didn't. Glad to see the characters join the MCU but not really interested in a sequel.

Spoiler Alert!

Loved Michael Douglas as Hank (perfect casting - I only wish the MCU was around 30 years ago for him to portray Hank in his prime!). Paul Rudd as Scott was solid, but his voice acting was off for scenes that were pure CGI. Really liked the "Luis tells a story scenes" - best part of the movie by far. And the bad guy was pretty fun, albeit still the evil businessman that's in like 50% of all superhero movies.

Oh, and the ants. I love ants, so I loved the little ants, they were so cute. I take it back - anything with the ants were the best part of the movie.

Unfortunately, the plot and writing just weren't up to par. Despite their half-hearted attempts, I didn't take the threat of "megalomaniacal man-baby destroys the world with tiny terrorists" seriously. The extreme mismatch between the grounded, street-level heist stuff and the crazy "quantum realm" stuff wasn't married correctly. There wasn't much chemistry between the actors... and man, Evangeline Lilly stunk. Just not a memorable or believable performance from her. Really dragged the movie down.

Updated MCU Rankings:

A-Tier: Captain America: The First Avenger > Guardians of the Galaxy > The Incredible Hulk > The Avengers
B-Tier: Captain America: The Winter Soldier > Iron Man 3 > Iron Man > Avengers: Age of Ultron
C-Tier: Iron Man 2 > Ant-Man > Thor > Thor: The Dark World

Much love for the Incredible Hulk placement, but you made a mistake and put Winter Soldier and Iron Man too low. Also, I think you confused Iron Man 2 and Iron Man 3 there.

Bats, opinionatingly (and also haven't seen Ant Man yetingly)

[johnny139]

The only reason Winter Soldier is in B-Tier is because of symmetry (4-4-4) - objectively, it's on par with the Avengers for sure. I enjoy watching the Avengers a lot more, but Winter Soldier is probably a better film.

And I'll admit that my opinions on the Iron Man movies are... unorthodox. I think Iron Man is overrated, Iron Man 2 is underrated, and Iron Man 3... well, as our man Hangout discussions throughout history show, I'm firmly on the "It was awesome!" side of that debate.

[IAmBatman]

Respect, for sure. I'm not too far off from you. Were I going to go in tiers like that, I'd probably do:

A-Tier: Captain America: The First Avenger > Iron Man > Captain America: The Winter Soldier > The Avengers
B-Tier: Guardians of the Galaxy > The Incredible Hulk > Avengers: Age of Ultron > Iron Man 2
C-Tier: Thor > Iron Man 3 > Thor: The Dark World
