Day Three - Least Favorite Marvel Film

Well, I'd have to say it was Civil War. I get the emotions on both sides, and when you've got volatile natures playing into it, things get even more difficult. I feel sympathetic for the individuals on both "teams" but when it comes to the bigger picture, one side definitely came down as "not good". Thus, it meant a polarization of people based on their choices in this movie. Definitely NOT why I go see a movie. So, overall, I do my best to avoid this movie now. If I write fanfiction, I try to stick with AU's that don't acknowledge it. Having half the Avengers side with Thaddeus Ross and the Accords made me twitchy. I'm a history nut and the era I study most is Europe 1914-1945 (give or take a year or two). So this registration makes me think of the Jews having to register under the Nazis. Secondly, I grew up on X-Men comics and the idea of "Mutant Registration".

Day Two - Favorite Marvel Film

This one proved to be a tough choice and I wavered between Endgame and Ultron for various reasons. Not the least of which is the character development of Clint Barton. I decided on Endgame because of the emotional depth it managed to convey around all of the explosions and fight scenes.

Clint - such an emotional range we got to see in this - from happiness to despair to hopelessness to sorrow to hope. Everything just poured out.
Steve - not a popular opinion, but I liked how he got the full circle of the hero's story. And he got to spend a life with Peggy.
Tony - this character started out as such a shallow person, but here he gives up everything to save the day. He got a full-fledged redemption arc.
Natasha - her entire purpose for being with SHIELD was to wipe out the red in her ledger and I believe she did it when she chose to sacrifice herself. For me, the climax of the movie came with her willing choice to die to retrieve the stone.

Day One - First Marvel Film

I'm pretty sure Thor was the first Marvel film I saw. After I watched it, I went back to watch the others, but Thor introduced me to the MCU. I'd grown up with Marvel Comics - the X-Titles, not the Avengers. Pretty sure it was someone's birthday.
