Still my favorite MCU movie

Avengers: Infinity War is certainly a triumph. It's a satisfying, partial payoff to the story that's been building since Avengers in 2012. Even though I loved it, my personal favorite is still Captain America: Civil War.
Much like Avengers: Infinity War, Civil War brings a large cast of the MCU together and ends in a tragedy. I think for me, the story that played out in Civil War - the history revealed that binds Bucky/Winter Soldier, Tony/Iron Man and Steve/Cap - made the ending all that more emotionally grueling. That's one of the things I really love about how Marvel Studios makes their movies like their comics. I can recall reading so many Marvel comics that ended with something shocking, where you were saying "NO!" to yourself. That was a thing Marvel did so good. They made their super beings flawed, acknowledging their humanity, through both failures and victories. They've translated that so well to the big screen. Bravo the Russo brothers! They know their comic characters. Steve struggles with his past, Tony struggles with alcohol addiction, Peter Parker is still the awkward teen looking for his way in the world. These one dimension characters can jump from the page and we see ourselves in these characters and their struggles. It makes them all so much more real.

My top MCU movies to date:
1. Captain America: Civil War (still my fave)
2. Guardians of the Galaxy
3. Captain America: Winter Solider
4. Avengers: Infinity War
