Holy crap, Marvel has updated their film schedule again with a sequel to Ant-Man titled Ant-Man and The Wasp. This will be the second film with a heroine’s name in the title (Captain Marvel has been rescheduled, more on that in a moment) which is a good thing. This also makes 2017, 18, 19, and 20 all 3 Marvel movie years, which is nuts.
Netflix has a new teaser for the upcoming Marvel series ‘Jessica Jones’ Let’s take a look!
It’s been a while since I made one of these lists! There have been two new Marvel films since [last time](https://awesomefriday.ca/2014/08/the-films-of-the-marvel-cinematic-universe-ranked-guardians-of-the-galaxy-edition/) so it’s time to see where they fit into the mix. I rewatched all the Marvel films in the lead up to _Avengers: Age of Ultron_ so the films are still pretty fresh in the mind.
While the movies here are ranked from worst to best, I’m also grouping them into three categories: The ok ones, the good ones, and the great ones. If you’re wondering why there’s no “bad” category it’s both because I still enjoy the “ok” ones and because I can still appreciate the bad ones for the development of characters, story, and themes that run through the entire MCU (even if they’re pretty thin at times). Also also, it’s an exercise in being less negative.
Anyway, let’s get on with this.

I’ve finally seen all of Daredevil, the first of Marvel’s (current) 5 Netflix shows. So here’s a quick rundown of what I thought of all 13 episodes. TL;DR version? I liked it, but I didn’t love it. Also, this review will contain spoilers. I’ll keep it to a minimum but it is just not going to be possible to avoid them all, and since I like it enough to recommend you watch it, well, … you’re warned anyway.

Hot on the heels of the kinda promising trailer from yesterday is an incredibly photoshopped poster! Let’s take a look!
There’s finally been a bunch of news about the upcoming Fantastic Four movie and it’s been hard to tell whether it’s going to be good or bad. This trailer finally makes it look like it might be ok at least. Let’s watch!

There’s a shiny new full trailer for _Ant-Man_ and it looks really good!
Fair warning, this trailer feels like it gives away from plot details. That being said so do most Marvel trailers and they’ve basically all been pretty misleading about what the real story is. You call. Don’t say I never warned you.

Ed. Note: I’m not dead, i was just resting. Time to start catching up.

Here’s an awesome effects rebel for _Captain America: The Winter Soldier_ which will have the dual effect of making you realize how much CGI was in the film and also making you realize how much CGI was in the film. It’s a double edged sword.

The premiere of Agent Carter is fast approaching so the marketing is starting to pick up, which means we have another awesome poster to show you!
Marvels next foray into television is an 8 episode mini series about Agent Peggy Carter, master spy, founding member of S.H.I.E.L.D., and generally awesome character.
The series is set in the 40s, post WW2 and post Captain America becoming a capsicle and will depict the early days of the spy organization.
And it has a totally awesome poster!
Seriously, how awesome is that? I love the retro style.
Agent Carter debuts in January and will complete its full run before Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Returns in March. I, for one, am looking forward to it.
You’re already aware that _Awesome Mix Vol. 1_ is the best sound track this year but just in case you were unsure it’s been nominated for a Grammy award in the _Best Compilation Soundtrack For Visual Media_ category, which is category 58 out of 10,006.
To be fair it does have some good competition in the _American Hustle_ soundtrack and _Wolf of Wall Street_ soundtrack as they’re both chock full of good tunes however neither they nor _Frozen_ or _Get On Up_ speak to the story of the film or the hearts and minds of the audience in quite the same way.
The 57th Grammy Awards are being held in LA on the 8th of February.
