Where Does ‘X-Men ’97’ Officially Rank in the Marvel Cinematic Universe?

Marvel Studios has made so much incredible content it’s sometimes staggering to think about, and X-Men ’97 is an astonishing achievement. But where will it rank in my list? Let’s find out.

46. The Incredible Hulk

This movie is now somewhat relevant considering that it’s connecting to Captain America: Brave New World. That being said, this movie will most likely always remain at the bottom of my list.

45. Thor

Thor has its moments, but overall, it’s pretty subpar.

44. Secret Invasion

I wanted to love this show, but after the fourth episode, it was clear that this would become one of the least interesting installments in the MCU in a while. The best thing about this show was the characters, thanks to a remarkable cast, but the story was as mediocre as they come.

43. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

Decent, but not great.

FIVE YEARS LATER: A Throwback to My Reaction to ‘Avengers: Endgame’

It’s fitting to look back at Endgame five years to the day since it released in theaters. I remember that day like it was yesterday. My excitement was through the roof, I saw it at an 8am showing, and when I walked out of that theater, teary-eyed and grateful to be a Marvel fan, I knew I had experienced a movie theater experience that I would never forget. Today, I want to look back at my initial review of Endgame. Enjoy!

FIVE YEARS AGO

Six hours ago Avengers: Endgame ended. As the credits started rolling and I walked out of that theater I had to contain my composure and not break down balling as I left the theater. Yes, I was crying a waterfall of tears…literally. My eyes were so red from all of the crying I was doing that, according to my wonderful sister, they were about the same color as my red lipstick. No joking.

This movie got to my emotions so many times but literally the last scene, well, it was quite a doozy.

Avengers: Endgame is definitely a beautiful homage to all of the Marvel films that have come before in the MCU. If you’re not familiar with some of the movies in the MCU, Endgame is going to leave you baffled and a slight bit confused because there’s SO much going on. I mean, it was fan service at its finest.

Throughout the movie I found myself laughing, cheering, clapping, but most of all crying. There was a certain portion of the film that was so jaw-droppingly fantastic that I literally cried for I think two-three minutes straight. It was that awesome.

I Saw ‘Blue Beetle’

If you had told me just a couple of weeks ago that I would watch Blue Beetle, I would’ve definitely been surprised but here we are. Why did I watch it, you might ask. Well, it’s Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes and, according to James Gunn, Jaime Reyes a.k.a Blue Beetle is the first hero in the rebooted DCU. So, that meant I figured I might as well check it out. And to my relief, it was a solid superhero film.

Blue Beetle is, honestly, pretty generic, but through that bland superhero structure shines a beautifully told story about family and its everlasting power. The chemistry between the family is so good that you become completely invested in the characters which, ultimately, makes the film worth watching.
