#17 Thor-

The powerful but arrogant god Thor is cast out of Asgard to live amongst humans in Midgard (Earth), where he soon becomes one of their finest defenders.

#18 Captain America: Civil War-

Political involvement in the Avengers' affairs causes a rift between Captain America and Iron Man.

Also- if you want to comment after you vote, that's encouraged also.

Two I haven't seen, so kinda going based on what I've heard. Isn't "Civil War" pretty much an Avengers film? Also, aren't these two characters who were kind of self-serious stoic and boring for the first few movies, but then were revived into more lively and enjoyable and humorous guys more recently? I dunno. And in "Civil War" they both learn their moms are Martha, right?

Civil War addresses the fundamental issue of what supers should be allowed to get away with. Should they be allowed to run missions on their own, or do they need governmental oversight? Is the government right for controlling the Avengers? We find out that Tony Stark, who we assume to be an intellect-driven indivudal is actually driven by his emotion more than he would care to admit. The team construction of each side of the Avengers' rift is nuanced, with some devote dto the Iron Man/Captain America cause and others just on the side because they happened to be recruited first. The airport battle one of the best battle scenes in the franchise.

Thor is very visually appearing. THe language is extremly Shakespearean in tone, which befits the characte rof Thor who is in his much more Asgardian aspect in his character arc. I maintain that Sif and the Warriors Three were not used to their full potential. Hawkeye's appearance does nothing to move the plot along and serves only to make his appearnce in Avengers maek sense.
