tread lightly bro, Marvel fans take offense to any critique of these films.

Not this is a fanboy war...

You've got it backwards. Marvel fans are generally realistic. No one thinks The Avengers is anything more than a high quality take on a popcorn superhero film that emulates the comics to a T. On the other hand, there's a high chance that people who "prefer DC" are the most touchy and delusional around. That's why every thread is a shiteshow. Anything that critiques TDKR or MoS is automatically wrong, a Marvel fanboy, etc. It gets ridiculous and no one reads past their own suspicions.

That's why there's so much defense over TDKR, which was kind of an awful conclusion to the trilogy, and a pretty bad film.

Marvel fans usually readily admit that IM 2 and 3 were subpar and many don't like Cap 1. And not that it matters, but Hulk 1 routinely gets crapped on.

Most think the only AWESOME films were Avengers, WS, Guardians and maybe IM.
