Best/Worst of the MCU so far

Best movie:

Even after a year I cannot truly pick between the 1st Avengers and Infinity War.

Worst movie:

The only MCU flick I ever walked out of disappointed was Iron Man 3. It wasn't the Mandarin twist per se, but it just felt like the wrong film to do it in. It bugged me that Iron Man was not even Iron Man for most of the movie.

Most underrated movie:

Age Of Ultron, man. I swear, the backlash hit like a month after it came out and I never understood it. There was that whole thing of people thinking Joss Whedon was calling all infertile women monsters. People were mad Ultron, a character made from Tony's personality, made quips.

Most overrated movie:

I say this only in context, but it's the 1st Guardians of the Galaxy. I think the sequel is better in just about every aspect.

Best cumulative performance:

Chris Evans. Cap has had the best arc, and he has nailed it. I fully expect Endgame to cinch this.

Worst cumulative performance:

Vin Diesel. C'mon, admit it, you snicker everytime you see him actually listed in the Infinity War credits.

Best one movie performance:

Robert Redford in The Winter Soldier. That film is not at all what it is without him. Also it's cheating to pick Tessa Thompson.

Worst one movie performance:

I like him a lot as an actor, but Sam Rockwell in Iron Man 2 annoyed the shit out of me.

Best Stan Lee cameo:

Captain Marvel one was perfect.

Worst Stan Lee cameo:

Fuck you they're all great.

Best villain(who STAYED a villain):

Yep, sorry Loki, you're ineligible.  And the guy who snapped your neck takes the prize.

Worst villain:

A lot of folks would pick Malekith, and Corey Stoll in Ant Man was so unmemorable I can't for the life of me remember his name. But c'mon, its General Ross. He is so spectacularly stupid that if he were real he would surely be in the Trump inner circle.

Message Board Classics: 2004 NFL Season

Preseason kickoff post (and other posts): Oh yes, it IS that time again. Training camps are open. The first preseason games are less than a week away. Players are already being idiots. It's the best time of the sports year. It is not yet the time for predictions, but I'll hit on some of the big recent stories. Ricky Williams retires. Well, we know now he did so cuz he was gonna be suspended for using marijuana. He's a little shit as far as I'm concerned. You do not abandon your team when he did. He had every right to retire, but do it at least before the draft. He's left the Dolphins with zero chance of making the playoffs. They couldn't go get Eddie George or Antowain Smith, nor could they draft a RB. The Cowboys cut Quincy Carter. I spent all offseason pleading with Dallas to go get a QB like Warner or Collins or Garcia. Instead they fail to upgrade, and now take a step back. Vinny is 80 years old and has little if anything left. My prediction is that Drew Hen...

Awful NFL season ends with awful Super Bowl

BUCCANEERS 31 CHIEFS 9 The 2020 NFL season is over. Thank god! A season that was almost across the board unenjoyable, and felt empty and largely felt manipulated, ended with the worst outcome imaginable. With a result that not only continues this 20 year nightmare but that will frankly hurt the NFL for years to come. I was not looking forward to this game. I knew this was going to happen. Maybe not in blowout fashion but I knew the NFL was going to see to it that Tom Brady got his 7th title. The house wins. The game was never fun. Right from the start the Chiefs seemed sleepy, like they weren't really in it. This team plays with swagger, but in this game they had none. Patrick Mahomes was under enormous pressure from the start. The Chiefs grabbed the 1st lead at 3-0 but then from basically the end of the 1st quarter until halftime it was a nightmare. The Chiefs offense remained lifeless. The Chiefs defense did manage a goal line stand that at the moment seemed like it could be a tu...
