“Loki” season two knocks season one out of the park in every way: character development, plot, cinematography and acting. Since its initial premiere in 2021, the superhero series “Loki” continues to be produced as a standalone franchise.

Out of the three main Marvel series, Captain America seemed like it would be the least likely to succeed. While Iron Man and Thor were allowed to roam free in action and sci-fi set pieces, Captain America was rooted as a more realistic character. Ironically, it is this exact realism and darker tone that make “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” the best Marvel film yet.
