I thought I would create this thread. I know each movie or TV show gets it's own one, but this is more a general one. Might help to keep the movie specific ones cleaner, might not!

Anyway, for starters, for people who have watched all, or most of the movies, I created my own ranking. Might create a 2nd post to include the Disney+ TV shows that begin in Phase 4. I tried to make it so it's easy to copy/reply and just change your ratings. YMMV.

Phase 1
8.5 Iron Man
7.5 The Incredible Hulk
7.0 Iron Man 2
7.5 Thor
7.5 Captain America: The First Avenger
8.5 The Avengers

Phase 2
7.5 Iron Man 3
6.0 Thor: The Dark World
8.5 Captain America: The Winter Soldier
8.0 Guardians of the Galaxy
8.5 Avengers: Age of Ultron
8.0 Ant-Man

Phase 3
9.0 Captain America: Civil War
8.0 Doctor Strange
7.0 Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2
8.0 Spider-Man: Homecoming
8.5 Thor: Ragnorak
8.0 Black Panther
9.0 Avengers: Infinity War
8.0 Ant-Man and the Wasp
8.5 Captain Marvel
9.0 Avengers: Endgame
8.5 Spider-Man: Far From Home

Phase 4
7.0 Black Widow
8.5 Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings
6.0 Eternals
9.0 Spider-Man: No Way Home
7.5 Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
6.5 Thor: Love and Thunder
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever


edit: I tried messing around with tables and other stuff, but failed. If anyone can make this into a tidy table with fixed widths or something that would be great.

7.5 Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

A few to explain, I think I generally like Dark World more than most people do, I don't think it's the worst MCU film and actually think it's probably level with the first Thor. Both Incredible Hulk and Black Widow I loved the first half of the film but the second half drops the score dramatically. I also kind of liked Eternals, I think most of the criticism was harsh. I do think it would have worked better as a tv show and the Deviants plot kind of fizzled out but I thought the cast was great and it's a beautiful film.

Added Phase 4 TV shows now (copied your layout so thanks!).

I would give Dark World even less, if it wasn't for the London setting, which I'm a sucker for as a Londoner! Eternals, I can never see myself rewatching a 3rd time, I was generous in watching it twice hoping my opinion would improve, and it didn't, and the London scenes couldn't save it :D All big actors and very little substance or real links to the rest of the MCU. Cast salary was probably humongous!

My TV shows may change ratings. They are so new I have only watched them once apart from What If.... which i've watched twice already, Whereas every single film from Phase 2-4 I have watched at least 3 times if they are rated higher than 7.5.

Hmmm... I must admit I have left out Agents of Shield, all 6 of Netflix shows, Inhumans. Runaways and anything else that wasn't on D+ originally! I believe all of these are no longer part of MCU anyway, unless i'm mistaken!

Unfortunately despite linking events to the MCU, Kevin Feige at the time said Agents wasnt part of the mcu and didnt acknowledge their existance despite having Cobie and Samuel making an appearance on it. Obviously as well Agent Colson.

I just pretend it's multiverse shenanigans. SHIELD started off a bit hammy during season 1. Seasons 2-4 were amazing with a special mention to season 4. 5 was pretty good and would have been a good send off for the show. 6 was just okay. 7 was an abomination.

I know what you mean, they didnt think of the multiverse at the time and distance themselves when it wasnt fairing too well.

You pretty much nailed the scores on the movies, we must have very similar taste, except for Black Panther which is a 6.5 for me, and Captain Marvel which is a 5 (SLJ saved it from being a 3 to be frank)
 
Phase 4 TV Shows

8.0 Wandavision
5.0 The Falcon and the Winter Soldier
7.5 Loki
7.0 What If...?
7.5 Hawkeye
9.0 Moon Knight (Loved this one!!)
6.0 Ms. Marvel
4.0 She-Hulk: Attorney at Law

Yeah the TV series has been a lot rougher for me with a few gems coming out
