Original Question: What have been the best Marvel movie moments?

Note: My answer was collapsed by Quora but I do not know why. Is it because I didn't indicate the source of the image or other reasons? OK, all the images were from an Anonymous Cuckoo Movie channel on Decentralized Cuckoo.

I am a Marvel fan and I picked out some great moments I like in these movies.

10. Doctor Strange has come to bargain (Doctor Strange)

At the end, Strange must face Dormammu, the most powerful being that we have encountered in the MCU. Strange confronts Dormammu directly in the Dark Dimension, and Dormammu immediately kills him. But it’s revealed that Strange has created a time loop, meaning he will continue to die and then confront Dormammu over and over and over again. The idea is that now, Strange has Dormammu trapped, and Dormammu can either remain in this endless loop forever or bargain with Strange for his freedom.

9. The Guardians kill Ronan (Guardians of the Galaxy)

Peter grabs the stone, knowing full well that this will likely kill him. As he makes contact, he screams out in pain. But for the first time since he was a kid, he doesn’t have to be alone. Gamora outstretches her hand, absorbing some of the stone’s energy and easing the burden for Peter. Since he was a child and did not hold his mother’s hand as she died, Peter has kept those around him at arm’s length. But now, he joins hands with his new friend. Drax grabs Gamora’s hand, and Rocket grabs Drax’s hand. One person couldn’t endure the suffering alone, but together, the Guardians are strong.

Tyler Bates breaks out the wonderful Guardians theme as the four stand triumphant and Peter declares, “You said it yourself, b****. We’re the guardians of the galaxy.” If you’re a Marvel fan, it’s virtually impossible to watch this scene without the hairs on the back of your neck standing up. It’s got humor, heart, and heroism

8. Yondu’s funeral (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2)

Peter Quill had been wondering about his real father for decades, and he finally finds him in this sequel. But it turns out, his father is a terrible person who wants to take over the universe. Peter soon realizes that he had a dad all along in Yondu, a man who took him in as a child and protected him from Ego. Having been treated as a villainous character for the whole first movie, Yondu finally gets his redemption as he saves Peter and sacrifices himself. At Yondu’s funeral, Peter eulogizes the man who he realized too late was such an important influence on his life. As Yondu’s body is cremated and his ashes are scattered into space, the most appropriate possible song plays on Peter’s Zune: Cat Stevens’ “Father and Son.” Within these few minutes, every single storyline in the film is satisfyingly wrapped up.

Yondu’s friends, having gotten word of his sacrifice, return to honor him. Rocket, who was afraid of how much of himself he saw in Yondu, cries as he realizes that his friends will still be there for him in spite of his faults. Groot embraces Drax after spending much of the movie at odds with him. Drax recognizes Mantis’ beauty. And Gamora acknowledges her “unspoken thing” with Peter, as the group stands together and observes the splendor of the stars.

7. Steve refuses to fight Bucky (Captain America: The Winter Soldier)

At the end of the film, we reach the climax of a conspiracy plotline that involves Hydra plotting to murder millions of people. There’s plenty of spectacle as a Helicarrier explodes over the city. Yet the real climax is the confrontation between Steve and Bucky. Steve refuses to fight him, throwing his shield out of the ship and accepting punch after punch.

Finally, Steve echoes something Bucky said to him decades earlier: “I’m with you ’till the end of the line.” With that, Bucky’s face shows a mix of anger, horror, and confusion as a part of him recognizes those words. In this magnificent scene, Sebastian Stan delivers one of the most stunning wordless performances in the series.

6. The death of Erik Killmonger (Black Panther)

One of the best things about the movie was the villain, Erik Killmonger, who director Ryan Coogler portrays as a fairly tragic character with believable motivations. The greatest Killmonger scene — and the greatest scene in the movie in general — is his last one, a rare case in a superhero film where the villain’s death might actually make you cry. After Killmonger tells T’Challa that his father always promised to show him the sunrise in Wakanda, T’Challa brings him atop a cliff to do so. The two soak in the beauty together, but Killmonger embraces his demise and refuses to be healed. “Bury me in the ocean with my ancestors that jumped from the ships because they knew death was better than bondage,” he says.

5. Peter finds out about Liz’s father (Spider-Man: Homecoming)

It’s especially effective because this comes at a point where the movie has really slowed down. Peter has stopped being Spider-Man and has settled back into high school life. As we watch him gearing up for homecoming, we figure that something significant will happen at the dance but that there won’t be any major Earth-shattering events until then. We’re lulled into a false sense of security with a fairly normal scene of a boy picking up his date, only to be hit with the most unexpected reveal possible. Even comic book fans were shocked since the character of Liz was created for the movie.

4. The airport battle (Captain America: Civil War)

Seeing just six heroes come together and battle in The Avengers was exciting. But now, we have 12 of them, with all of these protagonists having drastically different abilities. The Russo Brothers really spent a lot of time thinking through how characters with these powers would play off one another, and the result is a sequence with so very many jaw-dropping moments and cool interactions.Just to name a few, there’s Black Panther vs. Captain America, Ant-Man vs. Black Widow, and Spider-Man vs. the Winter Soldier and Falcon. The pacing of the whole sequence is impeccable, and we always understand where everyone is in relation to everyone else and what it is they’re trying to accomplish. If you had to pick out one moment from this sequence, it would have to be the two sides standing on opposite ends right before the battle officially starts.

But there’s much more within this airport sequence, including Spider-Man entering for the first time, Hawkeye shooting Ant-Man into the air with his arrow, and finally, Ant-Man turning into Giant Man. The whole thing is viscerally thrilling, but because the conflict has been so well fleshed out by this point, it’s much more than just mindless spectacle.

3. Thanos wipes out half the universe (Avengers: Infinity War)

In Avengers: Infinity War, Marvel actually had the guts to end the biggest blockbuster of the summer with half of the universe — including some of the franchise’s most beloved characters — dying horrible deaths.

The film sets up the idea that if Thanos assembles all of the Infinity Stones, he can just snap his fingers and wipe out half of all life. We did know going into the movie that there would be another Avengers film next year, and so you might assume the film will end with Thanos just needing one last stone. But no. Thanos actually succeeds, and in one of the most shocking endings in blockbuster history, he snaps his fingers and destroys half of all life on Earth. Black Panther, who just headlined the biggest movie phenomenon of the year, disappears into ash. Spider-Man collapses into Tony Stark’s arms, begging him for help and saying, “I don’t want to go.”

Sure, the shock is a bit lessened by the fact that we know that all of these characters will return. But it’s still an unbelievably audacious gut-punch of an ending, and it’s sure to go down as one of the most memorable things the MCU ever did.

2. The Avengers assemble (The Avengers)

For a few years, the idea of all of the Marvel characters coming together in a future movie was all theoretical. A lot of people were skeptical that Marvel could even pull it off. Would there be enough time in one film to give all of the heroes enough to do? Would they all play off of one another well?

Not only did it work, but The Avengers was by far the best Marvel movie to date. Joss Whedon wisely eases the audience into things, not taking for granted that they’ll just accept why these specific people would work well together. He spends the first two acts having them fight, holding off on the Avengers assembling until act three. That long build-up creates for one of the most satisfying and epic shots in superhero movie history when, near the end of the film, the team finally comes together and the camera spins around to show all of them standing in a circle ready to fight as Alan Silvestri breaks out the main theme.

The ensuing battle is highly entertaining, especially a long, continuous shot of the group all fighting in perfect synchronicity. But in some ways, Whedon never tops the joy of this shot. And although Marvel has surpassed this movie in terms of pure spectacle many times since, because of how unlikely the success of an Avengers movie seemed back then, the satisfaction of watching it all come together in this shot may never be matched.

1. Nick Fury recruits Iron Man (Iron Man)

All these years later, it’s still difficult to top the giddy excitement elicited by the original Marvel post-credits scene. These days, we take interconnected movie universes for granted. But put yourself back in 2008. Iron Man was just an individual movie that was being released by Paramount Pictures and that fans desperately hoped wouldn’t butcher the source material. There was not even any guarantee that there would be a second Iron Man, let alone that it might be the start of a whole Marvel Cinematic Universe. The movie was fantastic, especially back at a time when most superhero films that weren’t Spider-Man, X-Men or Batman were fairly terrible. But it was completely standalone and didn’t really suggest that it existed in a larger world where there are other superheroes. Then, suddenly, we get to the post-credits scene.

Tony Stark arrives home to find a mysterious man waiting for him. The man asks, “You think you’re the only superhero in the world?” Immediately, comic book fans are leaning forward in their seats, realizing just what is about to happen. The man steps out of the shadows to reveal himself as Nick Fury. “I’m here to talk to you about the Avengers initiative,” he says.

It is not an exaggeration to say that these 30 seconds completely changed modern blockbuster cinema, kicking off a shared universe that would soon become so successful that every franchise — from The Conjuring to The LEGO Movie – followed suit. It’s a simple scene, but because it was such a surprise and something fans so badly wanted to see, it is by far the franchise’s most memorable moment ever and will likely remain that way for quite some time.
