Jack & Matt's MCU Rankings

The other day my friend Danny reminded me that I have a blog and I haven't posted on said blog in quite some time. Since the beginning of the quarantine there has been a lot happening. No Time To Die, the latest James Bond film, has been delayed ... twice. I got COVID, along with the other people in my household. My daughter is currently in quarantine for being around someone who got COVID. Joanna and I became work-from-home parents and part-time teachers for a bit.

But all that is nothing compared to the monumental task Jack and I took on a few months ago. With a lot of free time at home the past 6 months we've watched a ton of movies. So Jack, who is now 9 years old, said he wanted to watch all of the movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and rank them. Since ranking things is about my fourth favorite past time (after baseball, watching movies, and playing cards, not particularly in that order), I decided to go all in with him. It took us a while, but this is where we landed.
