Marvel can keep pumping out these flicks like a Fast Food joint, however their films will never be

what people forget is most of those, "classic" movies were not box office smashes. they still live on through cult followings and cable replays, but that classic tag doesn't benefit the studio once the movie leaves theaters. superman made 300mil total run. captain america made that opening weekend.

I could never get into Star Wars, it came out before my time :yeshrug:

IMO, there are plenty of younger people who are always gonna remember these marvel movies and to them they will be classic.

No one is making popular classics anymore. Captain America 2 is probably as good as it gets popcorn flick wise these days.

Some of the Marvel movies have been really good and some have been ass (IM3)... That hate for Marvel movies is starting to go crazy in here. I guess yall know the next avengers is gonna do crazy #s

And some of those movies listed in the op arent that great. Calm down and let people have their own opinions :camby:

Its at the point where its mega popular and people hate just to hate. Some of the criticisms are valid, but even the valid ones tend to be so completely overblown its ridiculous. Only Marvel movies I'd really say were just bad....probably Iron Man 2 and 3. In hindsight, Thor 2 really isn't a good film either. Not very enjoyable at all. shyt, I don't remember a single thing about ti lmao. But the rest of them are at the least pretty good movies. Not every movie is or needs to be a classic. Being overly ambitious can doom you as much as being completely unambitious.

Pretty much... I mean no one bats 1.000 when you make more than 1 movie in a series. But overall most of these are good enough to get me to keep watching until the next avengers, and Cap 2 was a surprise home run so its no reason to be bytching right now

I don't know how people can say Iron Man 2 & 3 were bad. 3 was very underwhelming but it was no where near a bad film.

Iron Man 2 was actually good but that final battle was very anti climatic.

Underwhelming? Yes. But bad, no way. A bad film is something like Blade Trinity.
