mcu rewatch 2018

Have been planning to rewatch MCU films since last year in preparation for Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War which were both lined up for this year. Unfortunately, I didn't plan to catch Black Panther in the cinemas as I did not have much interest then to actually watch it on the big screen. After that, though, my laptop broke down and I got lazy to watch using my phone and the tv installed in our downstairs living room. Right now, though, I finally have genuine interest to rewatch all the films in the series again. I'm just leaving here a few comments I have of the films I watched that I was supposed to tweet (I'm kind of taking a timeout from tweeting, so). Enjoy my chika ✨

note1: I hope I can finish all these this month, though. AHHHH lazy lazy ass

note2: I'm trying to watch this in a chronological order, following their release dates - let's hope I can be faithful in watching in this order

note3: Will edit this post as I go if I remember to! Comments are all mine and just my thoughts while watching the films as I go & I don't make sense like half the time, so no hate ty

Phase One | Iron Man (2008) || Tony Stark won't work with any actor than Robert Downey, Jr. He is the embodiment of Stark x Iron Man and that fact in itself couldn't be topped. Also, man, this backstory thoughhhh. Gives Stark his own strong prominent personality, sureball.

Phase One | The Incredible Hulk (2008) || Tbh, Edward Norton gave Bruce Banner this soft guy image I could probably work with in the long run. Keep thinking what it might have been with Norton there instead of Ruffalo and with Liv Tyler staying for Betty Ross's character (she was a gem to watch Ideky???).

Phase One | Iron Man 2 (2010) || Hated Stark in this film, but truly loved Pepper Potts! Weirdest of the IM films for me. Too much happening and not a lot of meaning zz defo kagulo galore.

Phase One | Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) || Watched this first before Thor bc it came first alphabetically ganon. Was stupid of me really cos IM2's post-credits (I ain't sure) scene was of the mjolnir pfffft ANYWAY, I always enjoy seeing Chris Evans as Captain America, but I loved him a little more, I'd say, as Steve Rogers version 1.0. Ha, that cutie. ☺ I'm so sure now more than ever that my heart will always ship Stucky/Steggy ((HOOOY my feels at that "Peggy, I'm gonna need a raincheck on that dance" scene. Fuuuck that exchange i'm not crying daaarn!!?!??!!!!)) Also, extremely scared of Red Skull til now, but yay for surviving looking at his face during his scenes!!

Phase One | Thor (2011) || Kind of regret not watching this first (see reason above lmao) because the audio sucks and the rain's gone louder zz I'll have it known though that Loki will forever be a mood 😂 The Warriors Three will always be the cutest!!!!! (Lady Sif and those three are loyal asfff) Natalieee ♥ This film - and Chris Hemsworth - was robbed; deserved better in terms matog, editing, storytelling, effects haaayy

Phase One | The Avengers (2012) || Tbh, my fave MCU film before anything else! Loved the conflicts put together, especially throwing Loki x Thanos on top of all that. Still have a love-hate thing for all the relationships between and among all the Avengers - they were way stupid and prideful at some point, let's just get that out of the way lmao. In awe of Cap and Stark (that ~selfless scene!) as a whole + Banner and the other guy's stepping up + Thor coming back + Clint Barton and Natasha Romanoff's skillz (& coping levelz im so amazed at these two for getting out there despite their trauma) how the heck??? Favorite scene: defo that group shot after shutting down a Chitauri + that group shot at end credits when they eat shawarma lolz

Phase Two | Iron Man 3 (2013) || Possibly one of the best MCU films ever made??? Stark's character development in this film was essential, not just for him as Stark and for him as Iron Man, but for the whole series, really. This established Iron Man as one of, if not the only, the franchise's main foundations. Greaaat respect for Stark for still being one of Earth's mightiest heroes despite everything, especially the trauma, he's been through. Storyline was great; props to Gwyneth for her effective portrayal of Potts, especially in the last few crucial minutes of the film. Guy Pearce was also as astounding as Aldrich Killian 👏 Cool cool cool cool cool.

Phase Two | Thor: The Dark World (2013) || With the firsr Thor movies coming up on the latter part of my list of faves, I cannot deny how I've always liked Thor's grand entrance gimmicks and snarky comments 😂 Figured I wouldn't like this film mainly because of the orc-like features of the elves, but they were okay lol. Loved how the relationship between Loki and Thor, and actually, their family as a whole was explored. Heimdall remains to be one of the faves - what a loyal Asgardian ♥ God, Loki's "death" scene, thoughhhh. Tugged at my heart so bad. And Frigga!!!! What a kind, kind soul :( Also, ty Kat Dennings for being one of MCU's craziest characters ♥

Phase Two | Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014) || One of my solid faves what with all the Stucky/Steggy/Romanogers scenes in this film. Love the dynamics between Nick Fury and Maria Hill and among the other featured Avengers! And oh, Sam Wilson ♥ Will forever cry my eyes out because of the Stucky interactions ahhhh "I'm with you til the end of the line" my lorde my heart 😭 Also, grabe 'yung portrayal ng lahat ng villains (past, present, and future) in this film - Hydra did SHIELD real dirtyyy this time 💪

Phase Two | Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) || Drax is definitely crazy, but I love him all the more for that + it's fascinating to see Groot in action wthhh how adorbs! Gamora & Nebula's characters were given such rich backgrounds in some ways that made me root for them both somehow ah these two 💔 Ronan's character, as much as he was the powerful kind of messed up, was a mere pawn in the enormous game Thanos has set up from the start. Last!!! "No, Groot! You can't. You'll die. Why are you doing this? Why?" "We are Groot." 😭 James Gunn did this film good af!

Phase Two | Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015) || Coolest opening scene everrrr!!!!!!! Their dialogues are probably the best in this one. Wanda is insanely powerful and we see a glimpse of that in the first, what, ten minutes? 🙌 Jarvis huhu my heartttt 😭 Party sequence is one of the cutest scenes in MCU huhu them relationships ♥ Also, Maria Hill has much more exposure in this one - she's as vital and connected to the og Avengers as Nick Fury probably is and she deserved more appreciation. Another breathtaking fight scene galing!! 👏 Daaamn tho, will never be ready for all Brutasha & Clint-Laura scenes weow hayyyy Pietro's death - those twins and their development 😭 This film defo broke me shur 💔

Phase Two | Ant-Man (2015) || Idk about you but the humor in this film def brought it home. The clarity and quality of the direction of the whole film and all its characters, as well as the story, are all important (and effective!) in this one, especially with the introduction of another Avenger to the timeline. Love the more familial nature of this hero (Barton was the first one with this kind of background, but it wasn't as explored)! All characters are also worth noting, and not just the main ones, so 👌

Phase Three | Captain America: Civil War (2016) || I hate Crossbones, that's it! ........jk, though. Have you seen Nat and Wanda with this film? My loves!!!! 😍 This looks more like another Avengers sequel only disguised as a Cap one HAHAHA anyway, more love for Steggy & Stucky ("My name is Bucky" AHHhhh) ♥ ((also, Buck just wanted plums why wont u let him be 😭)) Heyy daaang those Black Panther x Spidey introductions though + Wanda's relationship w everyone esp Vision, Barton, & Cap HUHU + my babies Stucky x Sam !!!!!! Awesomely directed fight scenes - the choreography and blocking well weow 👌 Last few scenes, thooo... ily Tony Stank & Steven Rogers 😍

Phase Three | Doctor Strange (2016) || Possibly one of the coolest concepts brought to life! ((If it just weren't so dizzying to watch....... lmao jk)) I didn't really watch any Benedict Cumberbatch projects before this, so knowing him as Dr. Stephen Strange was a delight. On the other hand, have always loved Rachel McAdams and Tilda Swinton ((this convo spoke volumes: "I'm not ready." "No one ever is. We don't get to choose our time." geeee)), so def another yay 🎉 This film has crazy twists on its own and it's interesting to see all of them unfold in 2 hours. Also, this worked so well with all the supporting actors weow excited to see what's in store for Karl Mordo among anything!

Phase Three | Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017) || Amaaaazing soundtrack + great actors as usual. Seeing a different side of Drax is refreshing af + that introduction for Mantis? Danggg, ya girl loved every bit of it fosho! Loved the many, many conflicts this film presented, but most of all, the main takeaway from all this, part from Ego is a dick, is that Yondu was possibly the only parental figure best for Peter Quill, tbh. Having said that, all those father issues/dynamics in this film thoooo lmfao but my fave relationship would always be that of Rocket and Groot's! ♥

Phase Three | Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) || Tom Holland did an amazing job as Peter Parker and Spider-Man, truly (also, I always thought of it as Spiderman / Spider-man. Man, what a lie my life has been) - that squeaky voice included!!!!! 😂 Vulture was def a very effective (and scary!) villain, especially with the setting of this film. Happy to see Jacob Batalon as Ned Leeds, Zendaya as Michelle Jones, and Marisa Tomei as Aunt May and def want to see more of them in MCU. Loooooooved Stark and Parker's relationship here I think I'm attached to this one forever ♥ ((Also, hello, Pepperony (I missed Pepper for sure!) x Happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!))

Phase Three | Thor: Ragnarok (2017) || Best. Thor. Film. Ever. Up there on the best MCU films too! Taika Waititi and the rest of the cast and crew did such a good job with this film - action-packed yet still humor-filled, amirite! In awe of all the action scenes - damn that CGI and choreo tho!! Great chemistry among the actors translating to the onscreen result, well, wow ✨ Thanking Cate Blanchett too for bringing Hela to life and doing an exceptionally good job at it, galing! Still in love with Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston ♥

Phase Three | Black Panther (2018) || Ryan Coogler is one of the best directors ever, let's just leave it at that! He did such a turnaround with this movie in terms of representation and filmmaking. Galing! 👏 The ensemble did so so good with their portrayals too grabe. So much fun watching this film!! ✨

UPCOMING

Phase Three | Avengers: Infinity War (2018) || I still have to find a copy heheheheh but watched this in the cinemas alreadyyy.
