Olivia Ball - Week 17 - Watching the Entire Marvel Series

 I am a huge fan of TV shows. I am probably watching around 11 shows on live TV right now that come out each week. It's a lot to watch. Besides those shows, I have also binge watched long shows on Netflix and Hulu, some even multiple times. I have reached the point where I don’t have anything to watch when either there is no episode on that night, or I finish watching that night’s episodes. I’m kind of picky in general with what I watch, as most of my shows are crime/cop/first responder shows, so I haven’t been able to find any new ones. 

When I’m not watching TV though, I love movies. I mostly watch bad rom com and comedies, the same ones over and over again, and I have always been made fun of for never having seen the major classic, popular movies. For example, I have never seen a single Star Wars, Marvel, or Harry Potter movie. Last weekend I decided I have nothing to watch anymore, so I am finally going to watch the entire Marvel series. I’m watching in chronological order, not release order, but I am only on number 2 out of 25. I have a very long way to go. 

The first one I watched was Captain America: The First Avenger. I loved this movie, and it really set the standard for what the rest would somewhat be like because I literally knew nothing. I love the combination of reality and super heroes where it doesn’t feel like a completely unrealistic scenario. The second movie that I finished today was Captain Marvel. I have heard that this movie is not that good, but I really enjoyed it (I’ve realized that I like bad movies, oops). It gave me some more background on where the Marvel characters will come from. 

Overall, I have been very impressed with these movies so far, and I am looking forward to watching them all. Here is the link to the chronological order of the movies just in case you're interested in joining me in watching these movies. Do you prefer movies or TV shows? What is your favorite series (movies or tv)?

  1. Hi Liv. I actually have thought about watching all the Marvel movies from all the hype I hear about them, but I just haven't ever really gotten around to it. Personally I prefer TV shows over movies because my attention span is not long enough to sit through and watch an entire movie. Don't get me wrong, I still love movies, but if I had to choose, I like shows better. My favorite series right now is Criminal Minds and Stranger Things because every episode is exciting and jam-packed, where movies can sometimes get a bit slow.
