In what order should I watch the films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe?



What films make up the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and what order should they be watched in?



Answer



The full chronological (not release order! I assume you're asking for chronological, as release order is easy enough to find on Wikipedia) order, bolded the ones that interest (and/or should) you:





  1. Captain America: The First Avenger (Film)



    Agent Carter (One-Shot on the Iron Man 3 Blu-Ray)


    Agent Carter (TV series)




  2. Iron Man (Film)



    A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor's Hammer (One-Shot on the Captain America: The First Avenger Blu-Ray)






  3. Thor (Film)




  4. The Incredible Hulk (2008 Film)




  5. Iron Man 2 (Film) (Hulk's campus rampage can be seen in the background)


    The Consultant (One-Shot on Thor Blu-Ray)





  6. The Avengers (Film)


    Item 47 (One-Shot on The Avengers Blu-Ray)




  7. Iron Man 3 (Film)


    Agents of SHIELD (TV Series: Season 1, Episodes 1-7)


    All Hail The King (One-Shot on the Thor 2: The Dark World Blu-Ray and digital release)




  8. Thor 2: The Dark World (Film)



    Agents of SHIELD (TV Series: Season 1, Episodes 8-16)




  9. Captain America: The Winter Soldier (Film)


    Agents of SHIELD (TV Series: Season 1, Episodes 17-22)




  10. Guardians of the Galaxy (Film)


    Daredevil (Netflix Series)


    Agents of SHIELD (TV Series: Season 2, Episodes 1-19)





  11. Avengers: Age of Ultron (Film)




  12. Ant-Man (Film)


    Agents of SHIELD (TV Series: Season 2, Episodes 20-22)






List taken from this source. The list was compiled based on clues and/or direct references made between movies and/or info released by creators. I've changed it a little, as the original list was a little inaccurate.


Note that some films are likely happening simultaneously - like Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk.



Tony Stark's organisation sold anti-Hulk weapons to the army (that had to happen before Tony returned from captivity), and yet at the end he approaches the General with the Avengers initiative as a solution to Hulk (after finishing his first bossfight as IronMan).

futurama - How much time is lost in 'Time Keeps on Slippin''

In time Keeps on Slippin' , Farnsworth creates a basketball team which he matures by abusing Chronitons. This leads to time skipping forward by random, but ever increasing amounts. How much time was skipped in this way? Answer Unfortunately, I don't think a good estimate can be made for this, for two reasons: Many of the time skips move forward by an indeterminate amount of time. At one point, the Professor mentions localized regions of space skipping forward much more than others. We then see two young boys on the street below complaining about having to pay social security, only to suddenly become senior citizens and start complaining about wanting their money. Thus, each individual could have experienced a different amount of time skippage.

game of thrones - Is Syrio Forel dead?

In the episode 'The Pointy End' (Season 1 Episode 8) when Arya runs from the Lannister guards you hear the sound of a sword being dropped (around 4:56): [embedded content] After that neither Syrio or Ser Meryn Trant is never mentioned or seen in the show again, except when Arya mentions to the Hound that Ser Meryn Trant killed Syrio. Is there any mention in the books that Syrio actually dies?

tolkiens legendarium - Difference between elves and dwarves blacksmithing in the Lord of the Rings

Both the elves and the dwarves were famous for their metal work in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but what is the difference between what they made, and which one had the better skill of making amours and swords? Answer James Christopher's answer sums up the second part of your question well, but as to the difference in what they made, a little more detail is needed. Once the Elves learned to forge with steel, the shape of the sword changed, now being able to take on the form of a great broadsword or a light and agile curved sword. Additionally, they took great pride in decorating their swords. As we see in the Lord of the Rings , some swords like Sting had magical properties such as glowing blue when orcs are near. As far as the use of Mithril, lotr.wikia has two contradictory passages: Thus, Elven blades became renowned as great weapons, capable of performing deeds beyond the skill of their handlers and were even more glorious when the use of Mithril was allowed to the Elves. ...

How do Pokemon trainers collect their winnings?

According to Bulbapedia , Prize money is the money that a Trainer pays out at the end of a battle. So we know that the money comes directly from the trainer that just lost, and not some third-party committee or sponsor. But how is this done? It can be easy seeing the random trainers who challenge you along the way wanting to wager and then, after admitting defeat, sticking to their word and handing over their hard-earned pokebucks. Then there are the likes of Team Rocket and Giovanni, who also give money once they lose. This doesn't seem like something people in a criminal organization would willingly do. From this it appears that trainers have no say in whether or not they cough up the dough after losing, but I can't find anything on how exactly the funds are transferred from loser to winner. So how do Pokemon trainers receive their winnings?
