worst: thanos doing it as some weird kill half of everything to save us all. he had the ultimate thing that grants whatever and he chose that. him wanting to impress and bang death at least gave him a reason to kill.
Yet, they felt it necessary to go out of their way to retcon it.Playing the mandarin straight would have been absolutely awful

Yeah, this change was undercooked. "This universe is finite, its resources finite." So when you get the magic wish glove, you wipe out half of life? Why not double the resources? Learn some basic math, asshole.
But all it needs to fix it is to clearly show that Thanos is insane, death-obsessed. I mean, he is, but they don't drive home that point. They touch on it here and there. But honestly, they do a much better job of showing Thanos' more human emotions, his enemies' constant failure to believe he has them, and his exasperation at them over that, than they do showing the root insanity that drives him.
No way in hell. Incel Death-Friendzone Thanos is just creepy and pathetic. MCU Thanos may be wrong, but that's okay, because he's the villain. Villains don't have to be right, they just have to believe they're right and want to accomplish their misguided goal. It's strange that anyone even brings up this "That doesn't even make sense, what is he, stupid?" thing with Thanos considering there's a perfect example of "monster who wants to do terrible nonsensical things in the belief he's 100% correct in doing them" squatting in the White House at this moment.
Incel Thanos would've instantly been the most relevant comic book ever put on screen given the current climate lmao.No way in hell. Incel Death-Friendzone Thanos is just creepy and pathetic.

This is a smart man, Marvel. Listen to him.I don't know about comics but where's my goddamn proton cannon, Marvel??? Where???
I'm pretty sure Feige came out and said that The Avengers being divided and going their separate ways after Civil War was the reason that Thanos won in Infinity War, so there was definitely repercussions there.Worst: Civil War basically having no repercussions whatsoever and the entire moral and ethical dilemma at its center being abandoned was disappointing. The original comic CW wasn't that great, but I loved the long-lasting effects it had on the universe. New Avengers was a great series.
Worst: The way it handled Ultron.
Best: Hemsworth's goofball Thor.
If we can include Spider-Verse in this then I LOVE what they did with Doc Ock.Best was making Peter Parker a teen from Queens again.
Also best was Miles Morales in the Spider-Verse film.
Worse was every Sony film prior. I mean really, those Fantastic 4 movies are so bad.

I'm gonna have to go with this one as my worst deviation. There are plenty of others, but I REALLY liked comic Gamora...She is very damsel in distress and super serious in the MCU. In comics she kicks ass and clowns you while doing it.
That's another one that still bugs me. Not the dance-off part (I'm fine with that), but reducing a very complicated, complex, and even at-times sympathetic and heroic antagonist into just a dumb power-mad villain.Ronan being "guy who died thanks to a dance off" always rubbed me the wrong way.

616 Shuri is not like her MCU counterpart.
She is older and wiser, with a very different personality. Currently she is Black Panther while T'challa is lost in space, and she has some supernatural powers like talking with the dead, and changing into animals. The only thing she and MCU Shuri have in common is that both build stuff, but that's it.
Yet, they felt it necessary to go out of their way to retcon it.
On topic
The Worst = The Ancient One because it was purely driven by politics.
