Let’s Talk: Phase 4 Reactions and Phase 5 Preview

Let's Talk

Well as shocking as it may be, in just under two years we have wrapped up an entire MCU phase. I know we all have thoughts and maybe even some whiplash on how quickly we have blown through one phase, not to mention when you look at the actual numbers, it’s honestly staggering. We got 7 films and a whopping 8 shows (not counting “I am Groot”) and 2 special presentations. Keep in mind, we used to only get 2-3 movies a year, let alone the 1.5 years it took to get all of this. Now I know for some, this was too much content and became more of an overload than anything, but of course, I don’t get to pull those shots and decide to lighten up the load, that’s all Kevin. But we can certainly give our two cents on whether we liked all that content, which is what we’re here to do. To hear both of our explanations for why we may (or may not) have picked certain content, listen to our full podcast episode by either hitting the button to find your listening platform of choice or listening live by clicking play on the link provided.

Phase 4 Movies – Our Top Picks + Honorable Mention

Let’s start on a high note and talk about the two films that took the cake for Taylor and me, along with an honorable mention that was very close to taking one of those top two spots.

Phase 4 Movies – Our Least Favorite

As much as Phase 4 had its’ ups, it also had some down moments for Taylor and I. Weirdly enough, we happen to agree on the two movies that deserve the bottom two slots, although not quite which one is the absolute bottom.

Phase 4 Shows – Our Top Picks + Honorable Mention

The shows, in my opinion, are part of what made Phase 4 so special. For the first time ever, we got more than just films to feed our MCU wants and instead got weekly releases of some really solid shows.

Phase 4 Shows- Our Least Favorite

Of course, it doesn’t go without saying that there were a few pieces of content we got as far as shows that we also didn’t love quite as much as some of the others.

Phase 4 has been quite the doozy, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t just as excited to see what Phase 5 is going to bring us. We had the opportunity to cover a lot of what is to come in Phase 5 when we covered SDCC, so make sure to listen to our full podcast episode to hear what we are most looking forward to as far as movies and shows in the next two years. We have one final episode coming out this year, which will take a look at only 2022 content and we will, just like this, rate the content we got during this year. Remember we are back on our bi-weekly episode schedule for now as we await some new content to come in 2023. As we move into the holidays, I want to wish everyone on behalf of LTMFT a happy holiday season and to take this time to catch up on all the Marvel content, as Marvel just blew your mind, so let’s talk about it.
