Good god Arch! Really?! "Is Anything A Greater Cinematic Achievement Than The MCU?" Holy shit, the MCU %#&% is so far up your @$$ you cant even see right.
How about, oh I don't know, movies of social or dramatic significance that have stood the test of time? Or movies that were so deep and meaningful that they changed lives and peoples perceptions, or even just film language itself? Or the ENTIRE CAREERS of Steven Spielberg, or Martin Scorsese, or Stanley Kubrick? What about the entire European Film Nouveau movement of the 60's? The new wave of American auteurs in the 70's? How about sound and color in movies? How about Just Star Wars, or Harry Potter, or LOTR or Star Trek?
The MCU is awesome, no doubt! But its just fun entertainment. There are far more greater achievements in film/cinema than a string of money making CBM's. Go out into the world, see some movies from before just the last ten years, learn, and then come back and we'll talk about the great cinematic achievements.
Seriously, tone down the fanaticism. Its out of control!
To be fair, I'm pretty sure the main purpose of movies (in modern times anyway) is to provide fun and entertainment. That's a low bar. Might as well say Adam Sandler movies are cinematic achievements then...
