Odds are pretty good I think, give it needs to make that globally at least.

That'll be pretty hard to execute given the ratings of their respective films.

Here's the average ranks apparently.

Maybe it lied to you... no?
Honestly, I've done this before (after Black Panther and before Infinity War?? maybe after AMatW) and I'm not entirely convinced of its methodological soundness. I think the idea is that the pairwise comparisons should lead to a consistent result (transitive preferences). Firstly, that's an interesting assumption (transitivity is required for rational preferences). And secondly I was forcing myself to pretend that I don't want to rewatch CM and Endgame more than others since I've only seem them once each. This was meant to distort results to avoid those two "falsely" ending up at the top but did it distort them appropriately (also, preferences are probably contextual).
That being said, holistic ranking (e.g. what I did when we were doing rankings last time) is also methodologically suspect. Is it really true that people know themselves best (consumer sovereignty... another classic assumption in neoclassical economics)? That is, they can look at a ranking and think "this looks wrong" and therefore it is wrong?
I'm also sceptical of rating ranking (e.g. IMDB or Metacritic's best/worst lists) because of similar issues to the above. If preferences are contextual, then the value of the ratings from different periods of time is dubious and what's the most fair way of doing this? Rating all films in one's normal context? Rating each film from their best context? And if consumers are sovereign (it's a defensible idea) then shouldn't holistic ranking be better than this? And what about the role of expectations?

It is by far one of the best movies I have ever seen. The soundtrack was on loop for me for the first few months after watching it, and Miles jumping/rising off the buildings is my current wallpaper, and I like watching it from time to time. It's just so good.

That scene off the building is amazing.

To be fair, I think it makes more sense to compare averages as opposed to wholes considering the DCEU has produced far less movies then the MCU.
Well, Captain Marvel and Aquaman are still running somewhere apparantly.Ameriganastan wrote:I don't see it happening. The summer movie season is coming and Endgame eventually has to go to make room.
