That's because Daredevil is now spanning 2 seasons whereas IM is just 1 movie. Of course a series will be more layered and will have better development. But as good a series as DD is, it wasn't as revolutionary as what IM did for Marvel. The first IM movie was what started this whole MCU thing, and the tone, the action, the idea that heroes can have fun with their powers, DD can't match up to that, not in 2 hours anyway. Obviously, pitting 200+ hrs of development against a 2 hr movie is not going to favor well with the movie. Yes, and I'd say that's a credit to Daredevil. I don't hold it against the show for being a show and having a larger canvas. It's about how they've executed so many things right. If they started not doing that, then they'd have a lot of things wrong, so the fact that they have more opportunities can be a good or a bad thing for them, and they've worked to make sure that it's all great stuff. So I give them full marks for doing so. All things being equal, I find it more enjoyable to sit down to a season of Daredevil, or even various episodes like "Seven Minutes In Heaven" or "Shadows In The Glass", which are amazing. And I also find them every bit as masterfully executed. So I give it higher marks. |

I think we have one more day for this one, just FYI, if anybody has a vote left to spend. |

It's still highly regarded, but the MCU has just done so much more since then and Iron Man is relatively simple. So it makes sense that over 20 productions later, that 4 or 5 exceeded it in scope and quality.
To me that makes it the bench mark film, and the 5 films above it, I really feel have earned being called better.

And yet people will consistently think it's top 2 or 3 even though they themselves think it's more 5 or 7. These types of things are fun for really thinking about how you value things. |

I can see the exact same thing happening here.Like people coming and thinking: what am i gonna vote for besides Iron Man? Hmm...I think i like Avengers a bit more..Oh wait,i forgot about Daredevil... Damn,that Guardians movie was so fun...Damn,i absolutely love Winter Soldier...Oh,and Civil War..I guess no Iron Man for me  |
