I think MCU is going to keep the May 1st date. Launching the summer season is too good of a position. Nowadays Memorial Day is for B-tier blockbusters. Especially with movies like Endgame destroying everything in it's path for weeks.

Here are three trailers: one from the 21st century, one from the 90's and one from the late 70's. I think the 21st century one is the most effective despite the others having David Fincher and John Williams behind them. Why? Because Logan uses music more effectively having the same impact as a music video instead of dull exposition.

Alot of older trailers are cringey af. Very dated with deep voice guy describing the concept. Alot of newer ones are far more effective.

1. Rogue One 2. The Clone Wars (2003) 3. Solo 4. Return of the Jedi 5. The Mandalorian 6. The Empire Strikes Back 7. A New Hope 8. The Last Jedi 9. The Force Awakens 10. Revenge of the Sith

Jake did a good job. Thank you for the list/thread.

Tele rigged this list then had people rag on him to avoid suspicion. Mad Max Fury Road is a poor man's T2.

That would be a solid top ten.

IW takes the awesomeness of EG's climax and stretches it for two hours. It starts with Hulk getting whooped like a school boy and never lets up. On top of that, you have one of the greatest villain stories and characterizations ever put on film. That along with the feeling of impending doom that carries the film and the unprecedented ending where the heroes lose takes IW to another level. EG is a great MCU movie. IW is a classic action and superhero movie. Thanos is a grand slam the same way Joker is a grand slam in TDK. EG was a well executed victory lap. But it's a love letter to the fans whereas IW kicked just about everyone's ass.

I have no doubt it would be dystopian but endlessly fighting someone from drowning is tiresome and a danger to ourselves. I guess the danger is when they build nukes you'll have a North Korea/South Korea situation.

I'm at the point where if red states fought to break off from the USA, I say let them go. You hate science, diversity, environmental protections, corporate responsibility, tax revenue, etc then just go. I'm tired of this stupid endless tug-a-war. Good luck with the polluted racist theocratic corporatocracy.

Some heroic box office nerd should dig up the list so we can actually compare them.

Infinity War was more than solid. I wouldn't put Endgame on the same level. The way the story is told from Thanos' perspective was perfect. I dunno. I guess you need to be invested in the MCU to fully appreciate Infinity War but when I watch it, it feels different from most superhero and popcorn movies. Even from something like Endgame.
