MCU.

Star Wars has The Last Jedi. That trainwreck alone eliminates Star Wars.

MCU has Howard The Duck.

Man that superhero stuff is pretty popular. Thor is pretty good.

This poll is such ****ing bullshit.

Yes, let's compare one franchise with one story about one set of characters to about twelve with origin stories for each main character and stories that have, in some cases, NOTHING to do with the other stories...but count all that together as one franchise.

It should be the entire Lucasfilm catalog against the entire MCU catalog if you're going to do this bullshit.

Indy and Star Wars do not tie in together in any way. All of the MCU films do.

Indy and Star Wars take place in the same universe. Star Wars just happened a long time ago in a galaxy far far away.

It's going to be hilarious if the MCU ends up winning this by a combined total of like 5 votes in the final 3 rounds. It's becoming pretty clear to me that it's a franchise of people who love it and others who don't give any shits.

And here you have the overwhelming influence of millennials and ‘Big Bang Theory’ fanboyz.

Look. MCU has done some solid movies, no argument. But to have MCU as the greatest movie franchise of all time over some of the others that have been in this contest is an absolute joke. It makes this place looked reeruned. MCU didn’t change the way people make films, it didn’t create a new genre, it doesn’t really have a true ‘iconic’ character (actor) that will stand the test of time. It will be remembered as a fun set of movies with some really cool special effects. Nothing more, nothing less. But I digress . . . . .

With all that said, comic book nerds rise and enjoy your moment.

Eh, I don't know that that's fair. The MCU has shown that you can construct a series out of a huge number of different storylines and characters. DC is now trying to play catchup, so it clearly has had an influence on the "way people make films." It doesn't have an iconic character, but the overall arc that was just concluded will certainly stand the test of time as iconic. Hell, it's about to have the first BILLION dollar WEEKEND (worldwide) in film. It's having a HUGE influence on the industry right now.

I certainly understand that it's not for everyone, but calling it a "fun set of movies with some really cool special effects" makes it pretty clear you're not really paying much attention.

Take this poll before Last Jedi and it would be quite different.
