(For the record, the vote totals were 7-6-5, with TWS having 6, and then somehow it has 12 with whoever cast those votes not using their second vote. I call BS. The same thing happened last round when Daredevil suddenly got 6-8 votes to miraculously take the lead, which is why that series got left behind this round, and so I am subtracting 6 votes from TWS, because I'm pretty sure one of you idiots has a half dozen sock accounts.)
And the top 4 of the previous round in chronological order were Avengers, Winter Soldier, Guardians Of The Galaxy, and Civil War. We've had a few interesting results. I was interested to see Doctor Strange come in at 8th overall, and impressed with how well Jessica Jones did making it into the top 10. Also great to see that Daredevil is a top 5 entry and I think deservedly so.
In the third round, pick the best final two MCU films!!

I had to go with both of Cap's titular flicks. They had the best action and characterization in my mind.

Captain America: Winter Soldier and The Avengers.
Guardians doesn't stand much of a chance, I'ld say. It's going to be interesting to see if The Avengers manages to make it, but I doubt it.

It's hard to say. Guardians was sooooooooooooooooooo good. But the MCU is deep as fuck. On the drive in to work today I was thinking of trying to make a best scene poll and then realized there are literally hundreds of great scenes.

Wtf? Avengers is trailing? Avengers deserves to be one of the final 2. I think just because it's an older film that people are forgetting hiw awesome it was.

Voted Winter Soldier and Avengers Just reminding everybody that I'm nearly certain some idiot has at least 6 socks, and voted up TWS with all of them, so I'm subtracting 6.

Just playing devil's advocate, but what if I said it's a bit disheartening that people cling to it, and that there are so many great films like Guardians, and Civil War, and Winter Soldier, that maybe Avengers isn't actually the best film.
All I'm saying is, it's ok that the they've been able to do better. Hell if Avengers was the middle of the pack it would just mean the entire MCU is all that much better.

As a film The Avengers is extremely tight, very little fat, it is very well paced, and I think it holds up after multiple rewatches. Like I wrote somewhere else, GOTG was great in theaters, but after second viewing at home it was far less compelling, I've seen the Avengers......a lot, even years after its release and it doesn't really waver.

I have to agree, The Avengers is more memorable.

TBH, I find GOTG to get better and better with repeat viewings. And just to clarify, nobody is saying Avengers isn't a great film. It obviously is. If it's truly your favorite or you find it to be the best, then that's great. I honestly can't argue that. I'm just saying, it shouldn't surprise you that there are so many great films in the MCU that Avengers may not be the crowning achievement any longer.

I don't know if 6 votes is quite fair. That gives The Avengers the win. Plus, who would make a fake account for a subtopic on a subthread for a subpage on IMDb 2.0? I could be wrong, I guess. The Avengers is a pretty good backup as it is anyway.
