I would enjoy some sort of group watch if the MCU. Starting up The Incredible Hulk right now. My expectations are super low for this installment, but I like Ed Norton so we’ll see.

Ed Norton is the best. I was at a party with him once and I almost passed out.

Ant man, Dr Strange and both Thor 1 and 2 are the one i really dont like at all. Then there is a bunch of them that i dont care, Avengers 2 or Spidey for example.

Okay, so thoughts on The Incredible Hulk. I started this movie ready to hate it but was wooed during the first third into thinking I might be wrong. Felt like it was building towards a nice slow burn rumination on isolation while living with an incurable disease. The story of a gentle giant who can't control his own strength.
Hard to tell where it lost me, but boy did it lose me. Was it the weak plot? The lack of developed characters? That ugly-ass Hulk CGI? The fight in the end was cool but Abomination kind of came out of nowhere in the third act.
Still, as a completist I'm happy I got another move toward S.H.I.E.L.D. at the end there. I'll probably never watch this again and no wonder there was never a sequel to this character arc.
MCU movies I've seen, ranked:
Iron Man Guardians of the Galaxy Dr. Strange Incredible Hulk

Really good/highly entertaining: Guardians of the Galaxy Avengers Infinity War Avengers Endgame Avengers Ant-Man and the Wasp Ant-Man
Good/light entertainment: Iron Man Black Panther Captain America: WS Thor Iron Man 2 Thor: Ragnarok
OK/watchable: Avengers: AOU Captain America: Civil War Iron Man 3 Captain America: TFA Captain Marvel Guardians Of The Galaxy 2 The Incredible Hulk Doctor Strange Spiderman: Far From Home
Mediocre/letdown: Spider-Man: Homecoming Thor: DW
Bad/unwatchable: Some of the tv series
The best of the TV series (Shield season one, Punisher season one, Daredevil season one, all lost their way, and went from good to ok, or with the Shield, unwatchable). Agent Carter remained fairly solid throughout. Didn’t love Wandavision, but at least it was short and sweet. Have hopes for the new wave of tv shows coming.

Of the series I've only watched Daredevil season one, but I subscribe to services (Netflix etc) that have them all. Will check out Shield and Jessica Jones first.
A bit difficult to rank series and movies I’ve seen years apart, where some are dramatic action movies, and some are mostly comedies, while I haven’t even finished any of the series yet. But at least now I have finally seen all the movies.

it doesn't help that they kinda tell one long story. it's like ranking the chapters of a book.

That too, although there are some movies that hardly seem related to each other at all.
