Do think the Spider-Verse movies should at least be in the poll, they're masterpieces.
This might surprise some of you, but my vote actually goes to Guardians of the Galaxy. Yeah, I know.
I love all three movies, to be honest I can't pick a favorite between Vol. 2 and Vol. 3. I think the characters were all super well written and the actors gave it their all, they all have meaningful arcs and the movies feel a lot more personal than most CBM stuff, you can tell there's a writer/director who really wants to tell a story. I love that the movies are self-contained and don't focus as much on the larger-than-life stakes even though they're there, the focus is strictly on these charming characters having to overcome their own inner struggles.
For real though, while I have been using Rocket as my avatar here for roughly 9 years, it was only very recently that I realized how much I actually identify with him. For most of these 9 years I loved him but didn't feel I was like him, I was wrong, I was always like him in many ways. Trying to look cool, pushing people away, thinking I'm fine on my own but in truth I need people the most... you know, all that stuff. I'm really a lot like him, he's the main reason I connected with these movies so much and they will stay with me forever.
