Ok fuckers, everyone in the Last Movie You Saw thread convinced me after watching Black Panther that I should start at the beginning and watch the rest. So I will chart my progress here. Saturday it was Ironman. Even Gwenyth looked hot and wasn’t annoying (maybe she is a good actress after all?). Story was more interesting than I thought it would be, though I had held out hope that Jeff Bridges would be back and not bite the weenie. Still, a high quality flick, but not quite at BP level.

1. Black Panther
2. Ironman

Ironman, Winter Soldier and Black Panther are the top 3 flicks in the universe before Infinity War, but many of these are pretty well done and not just tedious back story. Thor Ragnarok embraces the absurdity (in a good way).

Here is someone else's recommended chronological order if you'd like to have no life and do them all. I can't vouch for it.
  • Iron Man (2008)
  • The Incredible Hulk (2008)
  • Iron Man 2 (2010)
  • Thor (2011)
  • Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)
  • The Avengers (2012)
  • Iron Man 3 (2013)
  • Thor: The Dark World (2013)
  • Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
  • Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)
  • Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)
  • Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)
  • Ant-Man (2015)
  • Captain America: Civil War (2016)
  • Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)
  • Black Panther (2018)
  • Doctor Strange (2016)
  • Thor: Ragnarok (2017)
  • Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
  • Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018)

  • Watch Ironman 2 while doing something else. Cheadle as Brody really hurts that one.
One article suggests these 6 as required viewings before Infinity War:
Ironman
Ironman 3
The Avengers
Avengers Age of Ultron
Captain America Civil War
Thor Ragnarok (on Netflix)

I'd add Captain America First Avenger to that list.

Thor is helpful, but you learn enough about Loki in the others.

I never saw Spiderman, Thor Ragnarok (watched since), Doctor Strange or Guardians vol 2 and was just fine enjoying Infinity war.

I think I'd watch Ragnarok as the last one before Infinity War.

And by that, I mean I did watch it in that order in back to back days and it was awesome.

has anyone been nerdy enough to align IW & Antman and the Wasp?

Off the top of my head, I would say Antman & the Wasp happens some time around Ragnarok, as the credits scene coincides with the ending of IW, and that happens a fair bit (a couple weeks/months?) after the movie ends if I remember correctly. I follow someone on Twitter that has been trying to align chronology across all the films, so I'll see if he has an answer.

100% disagree with needing to view Iron Man 3. I mean all you need to know from that movie was he had surgery so he doesn't have to live with the arc reactor, and that's the last 5 seconds of the movie.


There, now you don't need to watch that movie! IM2 is more important than 3 (since that introduces Black Widow)

I'm fine with skipping IM3 but you get plenty of BW backstory elsewhere. Also might not want to spell out the reveals from said movies.
