If you’re like me, you enjoy a Marvel movie or two or ten. Marvel has been in a movie producing frenzy over the last few years! True fanatics can keep up with the release dates and which movie to watch first. Full confession: I can’t! Thankfully, there are people who pay attention to these details and have created a list of the movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe AND the order in which to watch them. This is the timeline of the movies as they are happening, not the theatrical release date timeline. There are a few threads online that discuss why people agree or disagree with this list and I’d love to hear why you think the list isn’t quite right in the comments below!
