Comparing Superhero Rankings Across Various Metrics

[The Panda]

Just as a little fun experiment, I decided to look at how different metric ranked superhero movies.  Pick the one you like the best as being the most objective. 

 

I also created a cumulative list in which I scored points based off each lists rankings (10 for number 1, 9 for 2-3, 8 for 4-5, 7 for 6-7, 6 for 8-10, 5 for 11-13, 4 for 14-16, 3 for 17-19, 2 for 20-22, 1 for 23-25)

 

The methods I used for the BOT Reviews list was I multiplied the total number of reviews by 5, gave each A 4 points, B 3 points, C 2, etc. and divided over the max number of points to get a percentage.

Neat. I dig it. Incredibles, dark knight seems to be the top contenders with BP near the top in critics reviews. SM 2 is right there but not at the top.

I also reckon I2 will climb up a bit given its BO and it’s currently only its OW

BP/IW haven't had the chance to get awards nominations yet so I do think BP will climb up that list by next year.

Pre Permutter ouster in 2015 none of the others had much chance at anything other than VFX noms either since he refused to allow Disney to campaign for them o their own non Marvel dime.

To be fair, pre permutter ouster there weren’t really any MCU movies that were going to get anymore than 1 or 2 technical noms anyways.

Nonsense, RDJ would have been nominated and won for Best Actor.  

 

IM, Avengers & TWS scripts >>> Logan.  TFA should have got a nod for costume design

 

But wishful thinking aside we can all agree that TFA was ROBBED of a Best Song nom and win

It bums me out that great mocap performances like Thanos and Caesar are too nebulous to really be nominated for acting.

RDJ got a supporting nod that year, and if any pre ouster MCU film would have gotten a screenplay nod it would have been GOTG as that one got the WGA nom.

Yes for Tropic of Thunder (well deserved and he deserved one for Zodiac the year before) but he was also deserving for Iron Man - more I think than Depp for Pirates and it's not as if there haven't been double nominees before Jamie Fox, Blanchette and Julianne Moore did it just in the 45 previous years.

 

GOTG's screenplay...  the WGA was smoking something.

But, GOTG has the second best screenplay of the MCU (BP has the best)

[Rebeccas]

RDJ definitely would've gotten a few nods for Iron Man (at the very least GG-comedy, which he got for fucking Sherlock Holmes later lol) if he wasn't already in another movie that year and if Marvel at that time had money to campaign. Guardians also could've broken into the GG comedy categories too, like Deadpool.
