We are into phase 2 for our MCU rewatch and thus we have watched Iron Man 3 and Thor: The Dark World. These are regarded as two of the worst films in the MCU so we are going to talk about them. Are they really that bad? Or was the first impression so terrible that simply no one has gone back to check in the last decade. Well we had to and the overall result is that these movies are, in fact, not great. But why? And how could we have fallen so far from the quality that was phase 1?

As it stands now these are two of the lowest ranking films though the second Iron Man movie still remains at the bottom, for me. Thor: The Dark World was the lowest ranked MCU movie on almost all critic sites until the release of Eternals. Turns out that revisiting them years later reveals that they do not hold up and they are as bad as you remember them. The films in phase 2 can only be described as mediocre at best, though they do a great job of setting up phase 3, widely regarded as the best era of MCU films. As we continue we will not shy away from calling out the missteps that Marvel made and those missteps have evolved into even the latest movies being produced.
