I cannot stand the soundtrack to the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, and I will vote for their competition at every opportunity.

That is all.

Avengers...because it's the Avengers
Guardians of the Galaxy...because of the awesome soundtrack

I like all four movies, but I have to go with the same as Sun for the same reasons.

This was easy - Avengers and Guardians.

Hating the Guardians soundtrack is sacrilege.

Kind of agree with everyone - but I picked Guardians because it was a better movie (although a little draggy in the beginning).  The soundtrack is a nice bonus.

I think Guardians is an especially important Marvel film, because it stretched the tone.  Guardians was fun.  The soundtrack part of it really stretched what those movies were, to that point.

And it introduced a lot of the crazier space parts of the MCU that we now take for granted. 

It's in the top echelon of all the Marvel films, IMO.

Yeah I agree, not to mention all of those characters where pretty much a joke before the movie.  They took obscure characters and made them huge.

Somehow i can't take Star Lord seriously as a hero.  Don't get me wrong, I like his character, but as a "hero" it seems like Rocket is more capable than Star Lord.

They completely screwed him up in Infinity War and made him incompetent.

Voting has ended!  The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy have advanced to the next round, where they will face Endgame and Winter Soldier.
