After Thor’s vision in Avengers Age of Ultron he searches for the Infinity Stones. His journey leads him to see a vision of Ragnarok, Asgard and all of its people burning. Thor returns to Asgard but is sent to the other side of the galaxy by his sister, Hela, who wants to control all of the realms. Now Thor is on a mission to get back to Asgard with the help of a Valkyrie and Hulk. If you have watched the first two Thor movies I would 100% recommend this for you. This movie is engaging and entertaining.

Ant-Man and the Wasp is an amazing movie where the main villain is the Ghost. This version of the Ghost has a disease where she cannot stabilize herself. Scott Lang and Hope Pym work together to stop the new threat. After Captain America Civil War, Scott Lang was put on house arrest for fighting with Captain America. In this new and epic Ant-Man film Scott Lang will try to stop this villain without getting caught by the authorities.

The best thing about Iron Man 2 for me was how this still peaked my interest. I liked Iron Man the first movie but I saw the trailer for this movie and I thought I would not like it. It turned out to be better than the first movie. I liked how Marvel made the villain Whiplash but I loved how this was the first Marvel movie with two bad guys. Justin Hammer resented Tony Stark and that fueled him to join Whiplash.

Avengers Age of Ultron was mind-blowing. I watched this movie in theaters for the first time and it was spectacular. It did not correlate with the Infinite Stone Storyline from the other movies but the film did have a few details relating to the next two movies. The second Avengers movie introduces new heroes and creates conflict and doubt between the Avengers. They begin to fight with each other but end up joining back together.

This movie was different from what I expected it to be. In Thor The Dark World you get to see the first Infinity Stone “Aether” and you get to witness a tragic and funny event by the God of Mischief. In this movie, Thor is trying to bring peace throughout the realms but encounters Malekith. This is an amazing movie to watch and I would recommend this to people who loved the first Thor movie. My opinion over this movie is marvelous.

After more than a decade of Marvel movies building up to this point Marvel has made an amazing movie. Since the start of Marvel’s first movie, building up to this movie where all of the heroes were fighting side by side together was astonishing. Infinity War was a well-thought-out movie which had comedy, action, adventure, loss, and sadness. In this movie, Thanos was searching for the Infinity Stones to wipe out half of the universe.
