Although there’s some dissent, many users are picking Winter Soldier as the best sequel and are extremely passionate about that choice. “If Winter Soldier isnt [sic] everybody’s pick there’s something wrong with the fandom,” wrote @CalebHerndon19 in response to @MarvelMultive’s “best MCU sequel?” question and collage featuring Iron Man 2, Thor: The Dark World, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Spider-Man: Far from Home, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and the aforementioned Winter Solder.

@CalebHerndon19’s tweet has over 2,000 likes, but it’s only one of many expressing the same sentiment with similar support.

@Shady_Mist went so far as to say that Winter Soldier is not just the best MCU sequel, it’s the “best MCU movie/series period.”

On the dissenting side, @RebelHart9 chose Ant-Man and the Wasp because “Ghost’s costume is one of the coolest in all of the MCU,” to which @joelogsdon18 replied, “What a stupid reason to pick over film over another.”
