Greatest movie franchises of all time
With Endgame on the horizon, I started thinking about how the MCU compares to the other great franchises over the years. So...what are the best ones of all time? We'll generate a giant list then put it through a Rain Man style poll series in the Lounge (probably seeded by box office or something like that).
Here's the current list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing Last edited by DaFace; 04-05-2019 at 11:49 AM.. |

LOTR, Mission Impossible and Bond for me.
The MCU is right there too. I've been going back thru watching Craig's Bond movies. **** they're good. |

I haven’t seen the Resident Evil franchise mentioned yet so I’ll throw that into the mix.

While I am hyped af about Endgame , I would argue that the MCU is pretty mediocre overall. Like seriously, so many of those movies are forgettable .
Thor 2 , Iron Man sequels both sucked, same goes for Age of Ultron and to a lesser extent Civil War was a pointless popcorn movie. Just my opinion anyways . What I am getting at is not all of the MCU films are worth seeing. Half of them are forgettable and cheap cash grabs . Also I do not think Kevin Feige (the wizard behind the MCU) gives these directors that much creative freedom . Most of the MCU films have the same standard / cookie cutter formula . Again, I am hyped for Endgame and think the Russo bros have talent. I do want to see how this shit ends but I wouldn't say its the greatest franchise ever. |
