Is Marvel on the greatest roll any studio has ever been on?

Iron Man 3 turned out to be a massive treat that most everyone enjoyed. It certainly kicked box office tail. This film is simply wonderful and is loved more from the true fanboys than IM3.

Now that this movie is at $330 million in the blink of an eye, it's even more fair to ask is Marvel on the greatest roll any studio has ever been on? I can't remember when a studio produced this many quality hits in a row with no misses whatsoever. I know they are smaller compared to the big guns (producing only two films a year)but this is one impressive streak. Not only in terms of box office but in terms of quality. Every film has been good to great. ALL of their efforts have been "fresh" with the critics.

How long can this continue? Certainly Thor Dark World hit it out of the park. Captain America The Winter Soldier seems to be getting the best buzz of them all. That preview attached to the Thor 3D was as amazing as it gets.

Is Guardians of the Galaxy the weak link?

12 for 12 opening up at number one. Yeah, I'd say the roll continues.

Why is Jane the one who finds the wormhole? Because she is the leading expert in the field and even moreso since she was looking for Thor and Asgard all that time.

Let's hope Dr. Strange does end the roll. Hot streaks are to be extended and respected.

The second trailer for Dr. Strange was all kinds of awesome. Sure not Ragnarok levels but what upcoming movies can match the hype that one is already giving off?

Yes, Marvel rules.

If Marvel/Disney does buy Sony they'll be even more unstoppable. Access to all those characters without barter or approval from Sony opens up a lot more doors for Marvel.

No franchise has ever had the kind of 10 year run the MCU has had (17 Billion and counting)
