Pick two to advance!

[Spider-Dan]

I went with Ragnarok and Infinity War, though it was a tough call.  I think Infinity War is the best Avengers movie, and Ragnarok is the best MCU "comedy."

It's worth mentioning that this is the first time in this contest that I own all 4 movies in the group on disc.

I also went with Infinity War and Ragnarok for the same reasons.

[Dave Gray]

I went with Black Panther and Iron Man.  I think that this kinda sums up the struggle.  Laying the groundwork vs paying it off.  I'm more of a groundwork guy with simple stories, I guess.

I went with Iron Man & Infinity War. I may be biased here as IM is my favorite comic character but i'm about the ground work on this one.I will agree though that Iron Monger was a weak villain and cliche. Still, when mark 1 came out i cheered. Infinity War speaks for itself.  Ragnarok was a great buddy comedy and black panther was just not great in my eyes. That end fight scene was done piss poor CGI wise. Plus, the CGI rhino....vomit.

[Dave Gray]

The MCU started with like-fighting-like Villains.  But since Iron Man was the first, it wasn't worn out yet. 

[Spider-Dan]

Voting has ended!  Infinity War and Ragnarok advance to the next round, where they will face Endgame and The Avengers.
