Marvel movies have never peaked because it was a downwards slide from the start
It’s hard to argue that the first Ironman didn’t completely reboot and reframe the entirety of the marvel franchise and superhero movie genre.
Is it a critically acclaimed movie? No.
But it should still be recognised as the starting point for a massive popular culture shift.
Either they all are the same quality or one was better than others, therefore creating a peak.
Look at f(x) = e^-x and tell me where the peak is.
A peak is only when it first gets better, then worse.
