ultimate avengers 1&2 were decent but like @MartyMcFly said they were forgettable....hulk vs was dope point blank tho and so was planet hulk. The scarlet witch and punisher movie is top 5 also and the stop motion black panther movie was flames and i dont even like stop motion :banderas:
Yeah, the Hulk joints were cool, but other than that nothing really memorable. I think @MartyMcFly hit it the head. They need to start telling more of their iconic stories through the animated universe. I don't know if it's neccessarily the case, but I feel like the success of the CU is kind of holding back AU. It's like they don't want to use some of their bigger arcs because they want to save them for the movies, or they don't want to give characters they no longer have the cinematic rights to any shine cause it's free pub for the other studios. Age of apocalypse, some Spirits of Vengeance stories, Secret invasion are the type of stories that would probably translate well through animation. Hell, The Incredibles told a much better fantastic 4 story than any of the movies did. The whole thing with the Inhumans I think would go over better animated, with how fantastical some of their powers are tbh. They're are plenty of good stories to be told but it seems the Marvel animated universe is kind of an afterthought.

Everything they do is forgettable. Punisher/Black Widow, Iron Man/Hulk, Iron Man/Captain America...

Meanwhile, DC is shytting on them with Lego Justice League movies alone. I'll admit the Batman stuff has been kinda eh lately, with the exception of the Batman Unlimited stuff.

Xcutioners Song with Mr Sinister, Cable, Stryfe and the Summers fukkery, hell any story involving Summers clan fukkery. That shyt has basically been untouched, the movies don't even acknowledge how big a role Cyclops plays in the X universe. So much untapped potential.

Mask of the Phantasm was so fukking piff.:wow: I had the VHS when I was youth before my house got robbed. :mjcry:

I always felt DC just cared more about the projects then Marvel did.

Marvel has some ok animated movies... nothing great tho. DC has always done the whole animation thing, better then Marvel.

Which is funny.. because when X-Men Evo, Wolvie and X-Men, Avengers, were just getting real good.. they were either canceled or the focus switched..

What has Marvel Animated done that stacks up to Dark Knight Returns? Exactly. :fcamby:

It's OK though. Marvel has its own lane and DC has its own lane.
