The MCU is about as high above HP as HP is above Twilight. ^^^This.

Honestly, I've never seen Twilight, but I wouldn't expect it to be better if only for the fact that nothing I had ever seen about it made me interested in it.
As for Harry Potter.. I'm not quite sure. It depends on how these Fantastic Beasts movies go. I enjoyed the first one and am excited for the next. But they seem to be going more the Star Wars or LOTR route than that of the cinematic universe. But if they can keep coming out with these 6-8 movie franchises it might end up being a better series of films.

Harry Potter is better than Marvel, DC and Star Wars. Change my mind. I don't need to. Audiences everywhere have spoken with their wallets repeatedly, and the MCU holds a larger appeal than Harry Potter.

Alright fellas be honest with me. How many of you watched the entire Twilight series? And don't give me that "My girlfriend made me" nonsense. I read the fucking books out of morbid curiosity, and caught the first and last films. Play for play, the books were better, but still terrible.

Like I said, the books were still bad, but at least most of the plot points were explained in some fashion. Those damn movies just assumed you'd read the books and were like, "We don't need to explain crap!"

Let’s not forget that ‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1’ is one of the biggest budget waste cases in big-budget film history. I still can’t believe they spent $110 million to a film where pretty much nothing ever happens.

Also HP is one of the most respected franchises, many see HP as a good contribution to cinema, fantasy and British film making.
MCU movies are deemed dangerous to cinema.
Enuff said.

Who was probably throwing fits because his new film was not going to be screened at cinemas properly? Coppola? Who is pretty much a has-been now?

Harry Potter for the win. While I agree Harry Potter is better than the MCU mostly because out of the original 8 HP movies I didn't find a single one to be bad or even mediocre. MCU is still a really good franchise and is worthy of being called cinema.

Have never seen the Harry Potter movies (that's hopefully change soon), but adore the books.
The MCU is way better than Twilight.

It honestly felt the most juvenile of the Transformers movies and that's saying something given how Revenge of the Fallen had robot testicles and Dark of the Moon had that whole Deep Wang scene.

I’ll still pick ‘The Last Knight’ over any ‘Twilight’ film any day. At least the former is batsh!t while the latter is just choir to sit through.
