I'd like to hear any thoughts on what would be considered a bigger accomplishment. The resume of the MCU is that of a 22 solid film run that has achieved consistent results, raised it's box office value, established global brand trust, earned the purchasing eye of Disney, produced at least a few of the very best films in the genre, become the largest film study in Hollywood, and has become an influence on the entire industry.

Has any cinematic endeavor accomplished more than that?

Yes. It's never been quantity over quality.

Except as has been pointed out multiple times in this thread, MCU has both quantity AND quality. Sure, their movies may not be in the same caliber as The Godfather or some other greats, but all of their movies have been at worst pretty decent and at best pretty darn good. Considering that they're at what, 15/16 movies now? That's some ridiculously good consistency that is unparalleled by anything in cinematic history so far. Most movie franchises can't go beyond 3 movies without encountering a blunder. Some can't even get that far.
