6 M.C.U Netflix villains ranked

In my last entry, I did a ranking of the 6 M.C.U Netflix shows. And now here, I'm going to be doing a ranking of the 6 main villains from those shows, as I said in the last entry when I said my next one was going to be something related to it, and so that's what this is. This is going to be my opinion and so let's begin and I hope you all like this.
6. Harold Meachum:

Starting us off the main villain to the least of all these shows, Harold Meachum. I think he's the least of all of them because I think he's the weakest in terms of interest and personality. Not to mention the fact that his plans and motivation were pretty dumb too because he wants to take over Rand Enterprises but then he pretends he's dead and hides somewhere for thirteen years. I'm not saying he's bad, he's just nothing great or interesting.
5. Nobu:

Whether this is right or not, I'm putting Nobu from Daredevil: Season 2. And this was kinda surprising to a lot of people, including myself when we first saw this because we saw Nobu in Season 1, but then he was set on fire and we all thought he was dead, but then we see him again as the main villain in Season 2. And, really, I think the best I can say for him is that, while he wasn't anything super great, I will say he was still pretty cool and intimidating at times. And I like what they did with him at the end with making look like he was going to be alive again, but then Stick comes and chops his head off. And, again, while he wasn't anything really fantastic, I think I still liked him as the villain.
4. Alexandra:

Next up is the villain from the most recent show, Alexandra. Now we get into the really good villains on the list. What I like about Alexandra the most is that she seems kinda refined. You almost kinda understood her ideologies and they did a good job at making her character seem complex and intimidating at the same time, and I liked that. She even sorta seemed like the kinda person who, when you watched her, you sorta got the feeling that not everything was right with her and she was kinda vulnerable. And I thought they did an excellent job with her and it was really cool and shocking to see her did near the end when Elektra kills her.
3. Cottonmouth:

Now, this is a bit of a toss up because I'm not entirely sure who the main villain was for Luke Cage because there was Cottonmouth, Maria Dillard and Diamondback. But, for me, I'm going with Cottonmouth. He was an awesome villain. I loved him every time I saw him. While, yes, he was killed off during the halfway point of the show, the time he was on screen, he was really cool and intimidating. Just everything about him I thought was cool and his backstory was actually kinda sad. I certainly felt kinda sorry when we saw his backstory. He also reminded me a lot of those kinda villains who sorta liked to kill their own henchmen whenever he was angry or something like that.
2. Kingpin:

Honestly, I think this was the first time we'd seen a villain like this in the M.C.U. He's darker, broken down and damaged, but he also managed to have a lot more depth and character than I woulda thought. And it was also cool to see a great villain like Kingpin portrayed this fantastically on something like this. It was also great to have him be a character who we assume is sorta crazy at first but then when we see his backstory, we sorta understand his why he's doing this, even though we don't condone it. While it may come off as kinda babyish at times, I still think it worked really well. I'm just really looking forward to seeing him more in Season 3 and maybe if we ever see him in the M.C.U movies, then I think it'll be cool to see him fight Spider-Man.
1. Kilgrave:

And finally at number 1 is Kilgrave, A.K.A, the Purple Man. And I'm putting him here because I feel Kilgrave is the most interesting M.C.U villain we've seen so far. And he's the kinda character who's a great villain, but he's also a little sympathetic while still being really terrifying. And, yes, I do mean terrifying. I mean, his power of mind control is scary on it's own, but it's mostly scary because he kills so many people and he doesn't feel the least bit of guilt and he's so open to it. Think about it, he's so open to just killing people or doing any other horrifying thing like that like rape whenever he wants and he never has any second thoughts on it. I actually heard that he's supposed to be a lot scarier in the comics, but still. But, like I said, he's a lot similar to Kingpin because at times you want to like him and feel sorry for him, but then he does some stuff that's so despicable that you turn around on that. And not to mention the fact that the performance by David Tenant is, of course amazing as to be expected from an actor like him. It was also cool to see that reference to his "Purple Man" appearance in the last episode when he gets that injecting into him and we see his veins going purple for a second. Really, this villain, I think is the most interesting, like I said and he's highly entertaining. I really, really like him and I'm more than happy to put him at number 1. And so everyone, those are the six M.C.U Netflix villains ranked. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

6 M.C.U Netflix shows ranked

With the Defenders finally out and I've done my review of it, I thought I'd look back and rank the 6 shows that have been release. Note, I'll be putting Daredevil: Season 1 and 2 as separate entries here and that's why I said 6 in the title. I've personally loved almost all of these shows and I've done reviews for all of these shows, so go read those if you haven't already and definitely go see these shows, especially if you like the M.C.U. And another thing I wanna add, I'll be doing something related to this for my next entry, so, just remember that. Anyway, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
6. Iron Fist: Season 1:

Starting us off is easily the weakest of all these shows, Iron Fist, which came out early this year. This isn't really a surprise for anyone. While I didn't hate Iron Fist like everyone, I don't know if I can say I really liked the whole show. I liked parts of it, some performances, some action scenes and some episodes, but most of the show is a mess with some really boring scenes, like the business stuff and even some bad performances. Finn Jones, I don't think did that bad in this, especially since the main problem for him in this show was the writing for Danny. Thankfully, some other performances and relationships kept the show from being awful. Still a mess though and definitely the weakest thing in the M.C.U. Hopefully Season 2 will be better.
5. Luke Cage: Season 1:

Now we get into the shows I loved and starting us off is Luke Cage: Season 1. When Mike Colter was original Luke Cage in Jessica Jones: Season 1, I loved him as the character and I couldn't wait to see more of him. And thankfully they pulled it off with making an awesome show with an extremely likeable lead. There was also great twists along the way and they managed to surprise you in the show too because, if you've seen the show, then you know that they did something that made you really surprised and it made the plot completely unpredictable. It was also really sad as well like when Pops dies or the ending when he's taken away. And the tie-ins they do with the M.C.U is interesting with Justin Hammer. And, really, exploring this guy's humanity and the tragedy of his past is really interesting and I think it's what makes the show for me. Especially the other ties as well like how Claire mentions Matt quite a few times.
4. Daredevil: Season 2:

Next up is the sequel season to Daredevil. After a great start with the first season, Marvel managed to do it again with the second season with introducing new characters to the M.C.U like the Punisher and Elektra. It also introduced the Hand, which is this entire show's technical main antagonist. This entire organisation. And pretty much everything involving the Punisher I love and I can't for his own show later this year. Everyone from the returning cast is great and the new ones are just as good too. Plus, they managed to make it super interesting again with this being a sort of character driven show.
3. Jessica Jones: Season 1:

I actually didn't know anything about Jessica Jones from the comics before I started watching this show and I think that that was a good thing because the more and more I watched the show, I was surprised more and more the farther I went into the show. And what really surprised me the most is that it didn't feel like a comic book show. Sure it had superhero stuff in it, but it was really an interesting character drama. The story and characters were so intriguing and fascinating in the show. The characters were also really likeable despite some of their actions. I did really like them like Jessica herself, Trish, Malcom and even Simpson. And Kilgrave was an amazing villain. I mainly liked the show because it was a super interesting show.
2. Daredevil: Season 1:

The one that started it all, Daredevil: Season 1 was the show that introduced us to this darker and grounded corner of the M.C.U and it did fantastically. After the disaster that was the 2003 Daredevil movie, Marvel and Netflix made a 13 episode long show that reimagined the character in a new way and did it fantastically. Charlie Cox was sort of an unknown actor before he was cast as the character, but this performance has made him into one of the best superhero choices of all time. And I personally love the character of Matt Murdock/Daredevil. And this show helped make Daredevil one of my favourite superheroes of all time. With amazing performances and characters throughout the entire show, especially Vincent D'Onofrio as Kingpin, Daredevil was awesome. And I can't wait for more.
1. The Defenders: Season 1:

And finally at number 1 is the newest and most recent show. This show was the combination of everything that this darker corner of the M.C.U was building up to and I was super excited for it ever since I first heard of it. And thankfully, it didn't disappoint at all. Most of you are probably gonna disagree with me on this because some of these other shows are probably better and better made, but this is the one I've personally loved and enjoyed the most. I mean, this was Netflix version of the Avengers and it was so cool to see. Seeing heroes you've grown to love for so long coming together for first time, that's such a cool thing to see. It was awesome when we saw it in the first Avengers movie, it'll be cool to see the Avengers meet the Guardians of the Galaxy, hopefully it'll be cool when we see the Justice League later on this year, and it was really cool here. This show's best part was the interactions and seeing, not just the four main heroes meeting, but also all the other side characters from the shows as well. Seeing them all together like this is just as exciting as seeing the Avengers together for the first time.
And it had amazing acting from everyone. And like I said, the interactions were the best part of this, like I especially said in my review. Like Matt interacting with Jessica and Luke interacting with Danny. It was funny with a lot of it and I loved every second of it. Also, seeing Daredevil in his suit for the first time in the show when he saves Jessica is so cool. Speaking of Daredevil, assuming you have seen the show by now, in case you haven't, this will be a spoiler, be warned, but, I liked the ending of the Defenders when we see Matt being saved and I'm pretty sure they're going to do the Daredevil: Born Again storyline for the third season of Daredevil. This is my favourite Daredevil story.
Definitely go read it if you haven't already. From what we saw in the end of the Defenders, it looks like that's what they're going to do now.

From what we saw there, and especially now that Kingpin knows who Matt is as we saw from that one episode in Season 2, I think that it's absolute that they're going to do that. I think the other problem I have with it, along with the ones I already spoke about, is that the whole Elektra thing reminding me so much of Bucky in Captain America the Winter Soldier. Even down to little bits of dialogue. Which is kinda weird considering they're from the same universe.

But, besides that, I think the Defenders is one of my favourite pieces of superhero entertainment ever. I can't wait 'til Season: 2 and I hope they bring in new heroes for it. I think I still want the heroes I said I wanted last year, especially Moon Knight. I think he would be awesome to do. And so everyone, those are the 6 M.C.U Netflix shows ranked. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or tell me how'd you rank them.

My Disneyland pictures

So this is a very different type of entry I would ever do, but, today I got back from my holiday in Disneyland and I had a great time there. And, and you're probably not going to believe this, but I actually wore my Sora costume the entire time I was there and from that, I thought I'd share with all of you the photos I took from being at this magical place. And also, while there, and since I was wearing my Sora costume, I made a ton of references to Kingdom Hearts with the photos with the characters and even when I was on some of these rides. And you might think I'm probably way too old to be doing of these things, especially since I'm 18, but I still did and I was so happy when I did do a lot of these and also, when I show you some of those reference picture, I'll show al of you another picture from Kingdom Hearts to show what I'm referencing. And also, some of these will have my mam and dad in them, so, yeah, just know that. Anyway, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy.
