The only MCU character who holds a candle to Indy is Iron Man, and the sequels were mediocre at best.
This is an argument for quality over quantity.

Still doesn't hold a candle to the first three.

Including Temple of Doom? You're kidding...

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Temple of Doom compared to trash like Iron Man 3.
Iron Man 3 makes Doom look like The Godfather.

Here's the problem, as I previously posted. I'll give you the original Raiders as the best of the lot -- though honestly Infinity War/Endgame is going to end that most likely, given the initial reviews -- but then I'll match your Indy III with Ragnarok and from there it's all downhill for you. No movie in the MCU is as bad as 4. Temple MIGHT beat a movie or two -- Iron Man 3 being the lead candidate, but then the MCU has like 14 other movies or whatever left. You might have Wilt Chamberlain, but I've got ****ing Bill Russell and a ****ton of other guys who trounce your guys. I'm winning this thing.

That's not fair, though. MCU gets more shots at the dartboard.
Percentage wise, Indy wins.

Better series, in total, is all it is. Look, I LOVE the Indiana Jones series, but if you're telling me i can take ONE movie series to a desolate island where all I'll have for entertainment are those DVDs, then it's not even close. Maybe Indy 1 is better than any of them, but I've got near-the-same quality and WAAAY more very high level quantity. Hell, I like Godfather 1 better than Raiders and 2 probably about as much as Indy III, but I'd put the MCU ahead of them also. Sorry Wilt...

MCU movies all have the same plotline though.
Booooring.
