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.

Remembered? I’ve forgotten them already. Or at least confused them with the Transformers.

The MCU perfected the shared universe approach. I can't even think of any shared universe attempts on this level prior to the MCU. Their success has spawned the DCEU, the failed Universal monsterverse, and now the Godzilla-Kong monsterverse as well.

RDJ's Iron Man is also pretty damned iconic. Based on this board's demographics and nostalgia, I wouldn't think he'd win, but he'd certainly belong if DaFace started a Most Iconic Movie Character tournament.

Yeah, timing is a part of it. It’s no coincidence that this poll is closing on the opening weekend of Endgame (gotta get those last minutes extra votes to ensure victory). But whatever, it’s an Internet BB poll.

I’m more sad about the fact that the majority of my fellow Chiefs fans on this BB believe that it IS the greatest movie franchise of all time.

I don't vote for movies that don't use real words for their titles.

Star Wars, as a franchise, ****ing sucks.

2 good movies, 4 if you squint. More legitimately bad movies than good ones. Marvel spins out 4 watchable flicks like it's taking a dump and has maybe 2 real misses on the roster.

This is easy.

If MCU had come out over 30 years ago, and SW was the new flick, I don't think there would be a comparison. SW all the way.

You actually think Star Wars' age is working AGAINST it? That's crazy. I LOVE Star Wars, but it's legend has grown over the years beyond what's warranted. Especially considering the unwatchable mess of episodes 1-3.
