MCU Marathon
Welcome to our Marvel Marathon. Grab some Shawarma as we take our adventure through the following films: Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor, Captain America, Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and Guardians of the Galaxy. Let's talk about movies!
Note: We decided to leave off The Avengers and Age of Ultron to balance out the Golden Idols. Ant-Man was not yet released at the time of this episode. Categorizes marked with multiple films were awarded a Golden Idol for each film to keep a balance.
