I was dying laughing in the theater during this scene. His delivery is just amazing.Korg
Who is your favorite MCU character?

Captain America, when I think of MCU I basically think of him. He has a heart made out of gold and wants to do what's best for justice.
I put Star-Lord behind Cap, because he is just an awesome charismatic dude who is also funny as fuck.
My third choice is Killmonger. His sad history really drives him and gives him motivations to do the things he wanted to do in Black Panther.

? It's the MCU. Just cause the TV show doesn't interact with the movies doesn't make it NOT part of the MCU.
Cap and Spidey. My no.1 Hero is Spidey but I guess I've seen enough of the guy that Cap feels different, even though I despised the guy in comics haha. Think it's a mix of getting older and Chris Evans doing a solid job.
Tony is fun but I also don't like him much and never have. Don't care too much for overly arrogant characters in general, then again I do like Bruce Wayne when he's a bit of a dick to people.

Cap, Ant-Man, Vision (I think I am the only one), T'Challa. Honourable mentions to Ragnarok Hulk and Thor. I want to like Spidey but I just didn't feel it and switched it off after half an hour.
Captain America with T'Challa as close second. I love the whole Arc of Steve. His initial struggles/motives before turning into a soldier, relationship with peggy which ends fairly tragically, him bring brought out of the ice and struggles to adjust to the modern world, and his friendship with Bucky being the last remnants of his age where everyone else has passed away.
For Villains, Alexander Pierce is one of the most memorable ones and enjoyed the intensity of the Winter Soldier.

Bucky's story arc is my favorite too. He also looks super badass as the Winter Soldier.
Cap.
Killmonger was really fucking great as well though.
I take my hat off to the MCU though, as someone who didn't really like any of it before my other half introduced me to the movies, this is a really tough question to answer. You can make a good case for almost every character suggested in this thread.

Well when you hear the words "MCU" most people think of the movies.
Thor only got good in Ragnarok. Before that, he kinda lacked personality.
Cap and after seeing Black Panther last night Shuri is up there. I hope she and Peter Parker get to interact at some point.
Best villain is probably Vulture.

Cap. I've always found him to be a moving character — his abilities don't make him a hero, it's his selflessness and the desire to do the right thing in the face of adversity. Even when he's just a skinny kid, he's still the same person. The movies and Evans 100% nail that part of him. He's the person I wish I could be.
Ah.. yes! I love Peggy Carter. Her and Caps story is so sad. Need to edit my previous post and add her in. I didn't to start with due to likely not being able to see her again.
Her TV show was the best of the bunch, Netflix included. She is an insanely likable character. I'm a little surprised she isn't getting more of a look in here tbh.
Drax. Dave blew me away with his comedic acting.
Also a case of the movie version being a massive improvement on the comic character.
He was funny in Guardians 1. Obnoxious in Guardians 2.
The best MCU character is Tony Stark. Boring answer but true. A close second is Loki.
Never thought in my life I'd say this, especially after the underwhelming first movie, but Cap.
Shuri and M'Baku were both fantastic. Drax and Cap are great too.
Also Ulysses Klaue is best MCU villain, fight me

1. Black Panther. Badass introduction, awesome suit, great inner conflict and characterization, and a refreshingly diplomatic leader. Black excellence all around.
2. Captain America. His earnest belief in the positive ideals of America gets and more more necessary every day. He's our generation's Superman.
3. Rocket Raccoon. Hilarious, broken, ignorant trash panda with guns.
4. Thor. The juxtaposition between powerful, revered Norse god and big, goofy lug will never get old.

Yeah, Thor is super likeable in Ragnarok. I'd go for him and Cap as the two best characters from the movies I've seen
#1 has gotta be Nebula. She's a pretty straightforward character, but Karen Gillan does a great job with her. Just a wrecking ball of misplaced frustration and hate. When you watch her, even in the first movie where she's not really fleshed out, there's an obvious broken-ness to her. She's constantly making decisions that you can tell she knows are wrong or stupid, but out of this sense of... I dunno, stubbornness or spite or just momentum, she makes them anyways. Even when people give her a way out, she's too proud to take it.
She's also a beautiful, bald, surly space princess and I love her.
Runner up is Vision. He hasn't gotten much screentime, but he's the best live action portrayal of the "otherworldly bald guy with cosmic power that loves humanity despite his numbing detachment from it," which is one of my favorite archetypes. (He's actually not as good as Billy Crudup's Dr. Manhattan but still.)
On the converse, I've grown to really dislike Captain America over the years. My favorite in Cap 1 and Avengers but by Civil War I find him obnoxious. Moralizing, self-important jerk. Hoping he gets taken down a peg in Avengers 3/4 but I doubt it.

God that short scene was so cool, they really turned Cap into a badass with one movie. Dude would destroy anyone in Nolan's Bats, even Bane.
Nobody else compares.
I'll say Tony Stark/Iron Man. He's the greatest hero in all of comicbook movies for me. He has grown so much and been through a lot. He doesn't just shrug it off and stays the same, he evolves and changes with just about every film. He started off one way and is currently the total opposite and if you've watched the movies he's been in it hasn't been forced or anything, all feels natural.
By default Spider-Man
