How would you rank this year’s superhero movies?

August 7, 2014 by Gary Collinson

This past weekend Marvel brought the curtain down on 2014’s superhero season with the release of Guardians of the Galaxy (unless you’re counting Disney’s upcoming animated feature Big Hero 6, of course).

Not only has this year seen Marvel Studios expanding the cosmic side of the Cinematic Universe with Guardians, but its also continued the build to Avengers: Age of Ultron – and brought down S.H.I.E.L.D. – with Captain America: The Winter Soldier, while Sony looked to expand its own universe with The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and 20th Century Fox brought together the casts of X-Men: First Class and the original X-Men trilogy with X-Men: Days of Future Past.

When it comes to box office success, it’s X-Men: Days of Future Past that currently has the edge (although Guardians of the Galaxy could still have a say in that), but we want to know how you feel the four movies stack up against one another. Let us know how you’d rank them 1-4 in the comments below…
