The Incredible Hulk 2008 was never a mistake. It was one of the greatest early films of the MCU if anything was a mistake, it was the Edward Norton was not being a team player and got fired

The incredible hulk is not a mistake. It is one of the best hulk movies and best representation of how unstoppable the hulk. Unlike currently. Why are they are trying to make us forget this. Doesn't make sense. hell Disney plus finally add this movie to their streaming service. Love Mark Ruffalo, but hate the directors continue to underestimate the hulk's strength.

I recently watched the old Hulk movie that came out in 2008 and man… what a huge difference it is to the Hulk now. The best Hulk we’ve ever gotten, the film was so awesome.

Evan Peters will forever be a missed opportunity. Imagine Wanda connects with her brother from a different multiverse AND her father magneto…

I will never forgive marvel for screwing over the hulk the way they did. The 2008 film was awesome and had a good tone to it. Honestly, it’s been so long that I don’t even think if they make another solo film that it’ll be any good.

Dishonorable Mention: *The Mandarin Twist -This felt like a slug in the face to all Marvel fans to see The Mandarin, Iron Man's greatest nemesis, be reduced to a phony actor and then have Aldrich Killian be the "Real Mandarin." Luckily, Marvel has since released "All Hail The King" and Shang Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings, which effectively apologizes to everyone for this baffling twist and decanonizes and retcons the twist. We now have the REAL REAL MCU Mandarin, Xu Wenwu, who sticks closer to the character while making it his own.

*The Incredible Hulk* from 2008 was never a mistake. I say it's one of the Best Marvel MCU I've ever seen. The only mistake in it was Edward Norton not being a Team Player and gotten fired for that.

Hulk was a good movie and happens to be one of my favorites.

Watch Mojo are insane for saying The Hulk was a mistake.

I certainly agree with number 1. The Inhumans could have been good if done right, but it’s execution was horrendous. However I did like seeing Black Bolt again in Multiverse of Madness, even if he was only in it for like five minutes.

Biggest mistake making thor love and thunder

It's a bummer that Hulk in current MCU is just Banner in green skin, not a man with two clashing personalities.

Making Smart Hulk, instead of Grey Hulk

There’s a lot to unpack from that list, and honestly, I just always figure inconsistencies in the timeline have to do with the world they live in having superheroes and villains, so why not? And I thought Modok was supposed to have a goofy looking, giant head, lol!😂

My only problem I have is why do enemies not shoot cap feet when he blocks Or the fact that nebula got winter soldier arm I’m going on the theory that she took a prototype not his actual arm he’s using

Not a mistake for most....But I absolutely Adored the revamped version of Starlord that appeared in the 2008 Guardians of the Galaxy comic. Snarky, burnt out, trying his best to work with an incredibly diverse team....then the movie came along, and now Starlord is just Chris Pratt

#15 maybe it's bc the other heroes have their own problems tied on their hands 2013-2014: Tony has his hands tied with the mandarin and he "retired". And Steve is tied with rescuing Bucky while dealing with those corrupted shield agents/hydra)

The Incredible Hulk was one of the best of the early MCU and I'm standing by that. Better movie than almost all of phase 4

everyone should give agent carter a chance. It's such a great show that unfortunately is overlooked, but really shows how Peggy moved on from Steve before Endgame changed her story

I think they lightly explain the Iron Man 3 issue in Endgame. The fact that he quit superheroing after Thanos' attack. Yet got pulled into the time heist because of how much he cares about the Earth and the Avengers. That really showed Tony, while an arrogant jerk sometimes, actually cares a lot about the world.

The Incredible Hulk is referenced in the Avengers, actually. And it's underrated. A mistake that deserves to be forgotten by everyone is the Eternals. Everyone posted multiple errors with that thing.

The Incredible Hulk was never a mistake. It was a great look into the character of Bruce Banner and his struggles with trying to maintain control of the Hulk and the Hulk himself was way more intense and terrifying than Mark Ruffalo’s version. It was a great movie and Marvel shouldn’t distance itself from it.

2008 Hulk’s design looks better to me. In my opinion.

Electro could very well knew Peter’s identity from the fact that he was not only absorbing power, but also information from every electronic device including security, satellite and various of other deductible components that could clicked in his mind that Peter is Spider-Man. And based on how he expected Peter to be black, he only found out his identity but he never saw Peter Parker.

For the Electro issue, in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Gwen yells out for Peter when Electro is present. Electro was tasked with finding/killing Spider-Man/Peter Parker and likely put two and two together when Gwen yelled Peter's name.

Odin once had all infinity stones and a gauntlet to use them. (newly created gauntlet is just a copy of the one in the vault) He hid the infinity stones all across the universe, but kept fakes of the infinite stones in the vault so seekers would still think the infinity stones are in Odin's possession. You see this partially have success with Thanos only really starting to hunt the stones AFTER Odin has died and Asgard has been destroyed.

I love The Dark world!! However it’s an emotional attachment. It’s not only the first film I saw in theaters after a major move. But for some reason it played on a loop in the hospital during my daughters birth.

What about Disney favoring quantity over quality? Everything was heading towards INFINITY WAR and ENDGAME And now watching anything from the MCU became a chore we no longer want to endure

The reason electro was there is because he knew that Peter Parker was Spider-Man. He just didn’t know who Peter Parker was.

I’m just surprised Thor Love and Thunder wasn’t on this list

Amazing video watch mojo of many mistakes in the mcu,fantastic job.

They actually included a minor throwaway line about Electro existing in the grid, absorbing information after Peter 3 beat him, implying he figured it out somehow. The "I thought you'd be black" conversation seemed more like a "let's make social commentary" line than anything else.

1. WandaVision 2. Doctor Strange in The Multiverse of Madness 3. Captain America Civil War 4. Spiderman No Way Home 5. The Incredible Hulk 6. Thor Ragnarok 7. Thor Love and Thunder 8. Spiderman Homecoming 9. Captain America The Winter Soldier 10. Avengers Infinity War 11. Avengers Endgame 12. She Hulk Attorney at Law My Favorite Best Movies and Show in the MCU ever

good job about Making MCU MISTAKES Marvel Wants You To Forget from Top 20

Surprised Eternals didn’t make it into this list, or possibly the casting of Jonathan Majors.

The visual effects lately have definitely been a problem. I started noticing Black Panther. I think Multiverse of Madness is when they completely lost their minds, though. You're never going to make fantastical things look completely real, but I think at a certain point they just gave up and just resigned themselves to everything looking fake. The Quicksilver thing is just *baffling*. It's like they were trying their hardest to piss people off. The shared universe is also a big problem. You can't really have all of these superheroes together and still have individual movies. Why would Antman ever go on any adventure of any consequence without the rest of the Avengers? Ditto for Hawkeye. And you also have the opposite problem: What does Captain Avenger even need with the rest of the Avengers? She's so overpowered she could handle every problem herself. Once you call her in, all the other Avengers are unnecessary. And the same can be said of Black Widow. If you can literally control reality, that's game over. You don't need anyone else. The only reason anything at all was a challenge for her is because she apparently forgot her power once in a while. WandaVision was just an exercise in frustration. If you're going to make Wanda the villain, commit to it*. Having the characters excuse her villainy at the end was infuriating. It made *sense for Wanda to be the villain in MoM, but the lead-in was terrible, and because she's overpowered, her death by suicide didn't feel earned. She could've easily killed everyone, or even better, just change reality to make it what she wanted. She can do that. In fact, she could've altered reality at the end of WandaVIsion to repair all those damaged people, but the writers couldn't acknowledge that. I actually liked The Dark World. :) As far as the female-lead movies go, I think they need to do better. Captain Marvel is both overpowered and not particularly likable. And She-Hulk was just a mess. It was meta like Deadpool, but without the humor, and in a way that actually got in the way of the show.

Am I the only one who actually liked Thor The Dark World?

The mcu could've very easily rectified that "8 Years Later" mistake in DVD and BluRay releases. But they never did...

Love the YD voiceovers!

Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! I watched most of the movies mentioned, but missed noticing the MCU mistakes. 🤣

Darn it!

Ayo idk about you but fuck the MCU! 3:40 During that time THAT WAS AND STILL IS MY HULK! AND MY ABOMINATION! That was a sick ass fight.

One mistake I noticed in the MCU was in the mid-credits scene of "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings." In the mid-credits scene, you see Smart Hulk as Bruce Banner, but it was shown in "Avengers: Endgame" that Bruce combined the brains and the brawn together, and so he became Smart Hulk. In "Avengers: Endgame" the only time you see him as Bruce Banner again after becoming Smart Hulk was during the time heist when The Ancient One pushed Bruce's astral body out of his physical body.

IMO, the MCU's biggest mistake to date is one that they don't even seem to see as a mistake, and that being that they've turned their entire franchise post-Endgame into one, big, awkward, smirking joke.

The Edward Norton Hulk is easily the best which I know isn't saying much, but it's pretty decent. Mark Ruffalo fits better, but the movie was good

Also, yes, the Gauntlet was made in 2015 with that post credit scene because at that point Thanos decided to go on the hunt for the Stones

Nova Corps messed up, like how they say in Star Lord’s bio his alias is “Star Prince”. And Jon Watts, director of the Tom Holland movies said it is supposed to be 4 years later in 2016

The 16 slot can be easily explained. It really only occurs through Iron Man 3 and Thor: Dark World. And the answer was in the Winter Soldier: Hydra. Hydra was growing inside SHIELD and could easily see that since the attack on New York of 2012, they’re practically unstoppable as a team. But if they’re kept separate with say Killian’s terrorist attacks or the Dark Elf invasion, Hydra counted on those incidents to kill off individual members of the Avengers. And to make sure they happen, they would opt to cut off any news source or communication from the rest of the team members to keep it that way. But once Hydra was put to a stop in Winter Soldier, it was time for the Avengers to assemble since without SHIELD, the world is without protection. And Doctor Strange didn’t forget the Avengers when Dormammu came along, they just didn’t call them in because they clearly stated that it’s the duty of the Sorcerers to fend off the otherworldly forces. Or if for an external universe explanation, it seems to me people have this underestimation of these MCU heroes that they doubt they can handle things solo. I personally to have them soloing out rather than call in the Avengers together every time a new threat comes along that really one of them can handle by themselves. Plus, if the MCU did do these kinds of teamsups so frequently then Avengers: Endgame would not have been the same since it would cheapens the impact of their combined efforts to defeat Thanos. And besides, heroes having solo adventures despite the Avengers being introduced previously is a reflection of the comics themselves. They didn’t stop publishing independent stories just because they formed an alliance. Characters need space to breathe and be on their own. There shouldn’t be anything wrong with that.

20. Hey! At least it still looks better than all the bad CGI in movies like Son Of The Mask, The Lawnmower Man AND The Langoliers. (I know I use this A LOT whenever "bad CGI" is mentioned in films. But there's a reason why it bears repeating, it could've looked worse.) 13. Given what happened, maybe Agatha was right to try to take Wanda's powers, she was NOT right in the mind, further cemented by her villainous turn in Multiverse of Madness. Time to change the song's lyrics. "It's been Wanda all a-looooong 🎵." In fact, I am nominating her for "Top 10 TV Characters That Are Actually The Villain," once that list gets made. 11. And yet The Dark World and Love and Thunder DON'T have bad scores on their rotten tomatoes pages. Numbers matter, Mojo (except when they don't, like with your Top 10 Good Movies With Bad Rotten Tomatoes Scores lists). 2. The worst offender was... um.. whatever that "Alpha Deviant's" name was in Eternals, which was so bland and boring that it doesn't even have a name. Give other MCU villains credit, they at least had one! This is the most basic of basics!

I know that norton will never come again,but man,make a hulk movie or series with that 2008 incredible hulk formula.

How about their lack of keeping a bridge between TV and Movies. I.E. Pre-Disney+ MCU TV..... lots of introductions and Maguffins that could play a bigger role but go nowhere? Do I go on? I have an entire list of things to forget

I tend to think the visual effects are secondary to a good story. Antman3 is fun and stand out from the previous.

Never thought Inhumans would be top when i was expecting a Phase 4 movie like Eternals

14:52 Which movie is that clip from?? I don't remember Ruffolo in that look a gotee and all.

Dr Strange 2, Thor 4, Eternals, She Hulk’s ending, Taskmaster and the cgi of lately, that’s all I got, plus Captain Marvel.

AGENT CARTER's failure wasn't Marvel's fault, it was ABC's fault because it rushed it off it's programming line up. AGENT CARTER was a fun great show.

After what they did to Hulk and Thor I'm not looking forward to see what they'll do with the X-Men Just look what they did to Xavier

Edward Norton will always be the best Hulk

Edward Norton was offered a contract, but turned it due to his knowledge of the constant (ridiculous) script changes made by Feigi from prior marvel movies, including the Incredible Hulk. This is why we have a joke of a Banner/Hulk hybrid now, instead of a cautious/rational Banner who tries to protect the world from himself, which would have been a great point in Ragnarok if they didn’t start making him the butt of every joke.

3:35 3:36 if any of think that 2008 The Incredible Hulk is a mistake, then you are not a Marvel fan or an MCU fan.

Regarding the Iron Man 3 ending and Tony coming out of "retirement", people quickly forget that Winter Soldier happened and SHIELD were effectively disbanded and as Tony says at the end here, he is Iron Man - despite getting rid of his tech, he was always capable for building more if needed and then Age of Ultron starts with them sweeping away the last of HYDRA (that they know of, or the films acknowledged at the time). And though it isn't directly stated, it feels implied that is part of his reasoning for Ultron, because he feels he needs to protect the world - as Wanda exploited his worst fear. And then in Civil War, he is trying to take a back seat but keeps getting dragged into situations - take the exchange between him and Natasha when she asks did he bring a suit and he quips something about a lovely three piece. If the audience can just connect these things together, you could derive his reasons for stepping back into the suit

Incredible Hulk was really good. Now, they have made Hulk a joke.

Well, Universal's movie rights to the Hulk has expired in 2023. The Incredible Hulk is now sold to Disney. Watching it now on Disney+ is weird, it's not because of the movie, it's because we get to see the Universal logo standing behind the Disney+ logo. 😂 also, Steve Roger is a lady's man. he not only kissed Peggy & then her great niece over 70 years later, but he also kissed Black Widow to fool enemies by disguising himself & Widow as couples.

Letting Great Directors go should've been higher, like No. 2. Edgar Wright would've never let Antman be the cookie cutter franchise that it is. Most importantly, James Gunn was set to be the manager of the MCU's cosmos. Any movie related to space, its makers would've had to consult with him. This could've allowed for more creative diversity. In the long run, he could've take over from Feige even. Now he's running DC and it's looking better than MCU.

3:40 Fun Fact: Mark Ruffalo was actually The Incredible Hulk director’s first choice for Bruce Banner, but Universal wanted Norton because he was more famous at the time.

The disconnection between the movies and the Nerflix series were a good thing Because now, watching everything from the MCU became a chore

I never noticed, until rewatching XMen Days Of Future past, that when they went to Quicksilvers house, mailbox said Maximoff!

Oh man there’s so much more that that left in the past it’s crazy

One of the few times I agree.

they wanted us to forget inhumans so bad they put the lead in costume in strange 2?

I’m not one of those fans that want to see villains stick around for more than one movie unless they’re a part of a bigger story. It doesn’t bother me if they get killed off in one movie because it gives other villains a chance to on screen.

I will never forget The Incredible Hulk. It's my favorite MCU film and far from being a mistake.

No. 6 Did Watchmojo forget about how HYDRA revealed themselves to the world after the events of Iron Man 3. You ever think Tony, realizing the threat of HYDRA, restarted the Iron Legion project

3 is not an issue until some people made it one.

Number 1, Marvel took the incredible hulk (2008) and recasted him as a puppy

It’s still possible that it’s the x-men Pietro Maximoff the way he laughing about the bohner gag shows there is more

Scarlett Witch didn’t die

For #17, do people not like the Incredible Hulk movie? How?? I love the design of that Hulk with his green eyes and hair. He certainly looks more menacing & angry than the joke of the Hulk ever since the She-Hulk show

The Incredible Hulk is NOT a mistake, fuck whoever says so, it's an awesome movie and the best portrayal of The Hulk to this day!

Let's not forget that Marvel tends to ruin character development and betray the source material in which they take inspiration from. Such as Nick Fury in Captain America The Winter Soldier says the last time he trusted someone it cost him his eye. That line lead us to believe we would get some sort of reveal of a betrayal very personal to him. Nope, instead we see it was do to a cat scratching his eye in Captain Marvel, it became a joke. Then you have characters like Yellow Jacket, Ghost, Taskmaster and M.O.D.O.K. that were so far removed from their roles in the comics and animated series that it turned fans off when they were introduced into the MCU.

The Incredible Hulk was peak. They don't make movies like that anymore now. The movie showed Hulk at his Vulnerable and his strongest.

I remember how excited I was for Marvel movies after the first few came out, especially Iron Man 1 and 2, Avengers or the first Guardians. And after a few good years, it all started to go downhill in my opinion, because they produced so much content that I just couldn't keep up. And neither could they as it turns out.

17 That is my favourite.

Tony and Pepper broke up sometime between Iron Man 3 and A:AoU. Hence, him being in a suit and more suits.

With #16 I'd say the supposed death of Tony Stark, kidnapping of the President and Mandarin bombing in general is a better example than The Convergence, that happened in the UK all in the span of about an hour, odds are none of the other heroes, who are mostly based out of the US could get there in time.

Wow…Thor theDark World hit this list twice…and was then referred to a few more times after 😂 …at least it gave us the reality stone, so…

If Nick Fury had the tesseract in 1995 as we saw in Captain Marvel, then why was it with cap in 2012

I grew up with Hulk 2003, but Incredible Hulk is also badass. But I would like to forget the majority of Phase 4 because, except NWH, it lacked a lot of entertainment

The hulk of 2008 - was incredible. I prefer him than the new hulk.

“Agent Carter” was really good! Too bad it didn’t get the recognition it deserved. (“Ms. Marvel” was pretty good also, especially because of actress Iman Vellani. Yeah it’s made more for young teens, but it’s really goo for what it is. Same as “She-Hulk”.)

I seriously thought number 1 would go to Eternals!

Agent Carter was legitimately one of the best things in the marvel movie/tv stuff. They should have done better to schedule it

I honestly laughed that number 2 just mostly shows Malekith for reasoning lol, yeah he’s the prime example of the issue but should of shown a couple others, yeah Ronan was shown but still.

You can say what you want, but the Norton Incredible Hulk wasn't a mistake, more like a misunderstood master piece

I heard that under Purlmutters leadership that he didn't allow female lead movie, which is why there wasn't any til Kevin officially took over.

Those who Forget HISTORY?... Are DOOMED to Repeat It!

The InHumans should never,never been a Tv Series. They should just stand with them as a Movie! What the Hell? The fact the Black Bolt made his cameo in Doctor Strange 2. was a real Joy. But who's knows if, The InHumans can make it back to the MCU?

If Wonder Woman didn’t succeed , it would’ve take longer for a female lead movie. Change my mind

12:19 With Gamora it's possible that is an example where Thanos' ideology was proven flawed that he ignores, where with half the species dead the other half is unable to carry on and ultimately end up going extinct.
