That's a good point but IMO once you've seen like two or three of these films the rest feel far too familiar. I thought The Avengers and the first two Iron Man films were okay in the sense that despite their samey feel they executed their premise well. But those films have little to no replay value to me and furthermore the subsequent Marvel films feel far too familiar for me to even enjoy them on the first watch. I just find it odd that these movies get like an average rating 8< and have over 95% pretty consistently and if you read the consensus they often are glowing reviews of the film, not tepid endorsements because they barely passed the bar.
Saw 1st IronMan , and part of 2 and none of 3. It's corny , with its action and realism paralleling TV series like A-team and Knight Rider. I did love the A-Team and Knight Rider as a kid, but as an adult it looks silly, but it isn't meant for adults. IronMan comes across as the same, a movie meant for kids.
