Top 10 best Marvel films

Marvel has become a name to be recognized in the entertainment industry. Marvel has gone beyond creating movies and has created their own cinematic universe. Summer has already featured some box office record-breaking Marvel films and the highly anticipated Guardians of the Galaxy has yet to come out.

The Avengers broke box office records and made history worldwide, Iron Man (Tony Stark) has become a household name and Marvel has managed to bring Gods to the big screen. There is nothing that Marvel cannot do when it comes to bringing favorite comic book heroes to life.
