The first one was pretty fun, and I've completely and irreparably lost track of the main Avengers franchise, so I'm looking forward to this.

I wasn't keen on the first one (aside from the last act, which I loved) but this one looks really good.
If you wanna keep up with what's going on in Avengers, you need to watch The Guardians of the Galaxy films, Captain America 2 & 3, the previous Avengers (obvi) and Thor Ragnarok. I'd say those are the only vital films needed to understand what's going on leading into Infinity War. |

I loved the first one, I was expecting it to be really bad so was very pleasantly surprised

Evangeline Lily regretted sticking two fingers up at a movie career and came crawling back, huh?

Winter Soldier I don't think is 100% necessary for Infinity War. Though on the other hand, it is kind of needed to follow Civil War so... . Someone told me Black Panther was essential so I watched a cruddy Cam copy , and it wasn't essential AT ALL, the only elements of it you need to know about (i.e. the basics of what Wakanda is all about) are covered in Civil War. My question about Ant Man 2 is [Infinity War spoiler].. Spoiler: |

I suppose you could say Dr. Strange is another important film but really, the only thing you need to know about him going into Infinity War is that he's a wizard and he has an Infinity Stone. |

I saw Strange for some reason (I say some reason: the reason was Tilda Mother****ing Swinton ) but yeah I assumed he'd have a small part in Infinity War.

Yeah, back when Lost was huge she spoke about all of the offers she turned down because she "didn't want to be a Hollywood actress". She always says she "could've been the next Angelina Jolie, but I didn't want to". She comes across kind of pretentious in a lot of interviews.
Then when Lost ended, she said she was quitting acting. But then ever since it's ended she's done a lot of genre movies. Last edited by Marsh.; 03-05-2018 at 03:17 PM. |

The only ones they refer back to much are Civil War, Guardians and the previous Avengers films, really. Though I still say that Spider-Man Homecoming is important for Spider-Man / Iron Man. Last edited by Toy Soldier; 03-05-2018 at 03:17 PM. |

Ant-Man and the Wasp is released in the UK on August 3rd to avoiding clashing with the World Cup.
All the recent MCU hype made me want to start watching them - I'd only seen the first Avengers before. Only a few of them are on Netflix but I watched Guardians of the Galaxy the other night, which I thought was pretty good. Will try the second Captain America next (first one isn't on it). |

In for such a treat I'm legitimately jealous... Winter Soldier is brilliant and I'd love to see it for the first time again .
You can go back and watch "The First Avenger" later to be honest. I wasn't actually a big fan of it when it first came out... but after seeing modern day Cap in Avengers / Winter Soldier I rewatched it and really enjoyed it . I think it works better as a "Back story flashback" after you know the character, rather than an introductory origin story. |

I watched First Avenger earlier because it was on Film Four.

I just watched this one. Pretty good fun, but the first Ant-Man was probably better. In the sequel the story zips around a bit much, and there is quite long sections of explaining things - a lot of techno-babble gobbledegook I don't think I got. But the humour is good and there is a few laugh out loud moments.
My MCU top 3, having now watched nearly all of them is 1. Spider-man: Homecoming, 2. Civil War, 3. Infinity War. |
