With the upcoming release of "Infinity War" on April 27th, fans of all types are scrambling to rewatch all of the previous films before this one hits theaters. Over the past decade, Marvel has released 17 films (18 if you include "The Incredible Hulk") in what is referred to as the "modern MCU" (Marvel Cinematic Universe), and this includes everything from the first "Iron Man" film in 2008 all the way through their most recent release, "Black Panther." Marvel is known for having tons of quality one-liners and monologues throughout their shows and movies, and in celebration of the upcoming end to an era, here are a few of the most iconic moments from the past ten years.

1. Iron Man (2008)

"The truth is... I am Iron Man." - Tony Stark

The man, the myth, the legend--he's the one who started it all. Kind of, if you consider the fact that Captain America was still a frozen "capsicle" at the time.

2. Iron Man 2 (2010)

"I told you. I don't want to join your super-secret boy band." -Tony Stark

Oh, Tony. I imagine you wish you'd stuck to this considering where you are now.

3. Thor (2011)

Jane: "I only met him today..."

Darcy: "...after she hit him with her car."

Jane: "I only grazed him, she tased him!"

Darcy: "Yes, I did."

Darcy is easily the greatest character in this entire movie considering all of her quirky comments.

4. Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)

"Whatever happens tomorrow, you must promise me one thing. That you will stay who you are. Not a perfect soldier, but a good man." - Dr. Erskine

Dr. Erskine deserved so much more than he got, but he did well in choosing Steve. I personally would have loved to see more of him and Howard Stark working together.

5. The Avengers (2012)

Hey, look — it's the "super-secret boy band" that Tony didn't want to join. Ten points to Nick Fury for getting this crew together. Also, can we just discuss when the fandom flat out refused to accept the death of a minor character, and Marvel had to give Phil Coulson a television show to satisfy fans?

6. Iron Man 3 (2013)

Aldrich Killian: "You really didn't deserve her, Tony. It's a pity, I was so close to having her perfect."

Tony: "You're right, I don't deserve her. Here's where you're wrong: she was already perfect."

YES, TONY. YOU TELL HIM.

7. Thor: The Dark World (2013)

When the scene is so good that you forget it's actually Chris Evans pretending to be Loki pretending to be Captain America, you know you've become too invested in these films.

8. Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)

This speech was honestly one of the best parts of the movie. Don't try to convince me otherwise.

9. Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

Peter, honey, what are you doing? OK, but this was an absolutely golden part of the movie.

10. Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)

Tony: "But how do we cope with something like that?"

Steve: "Together."

Tony: "We'll lose."

Steve: "We do that together too."

In the first "Avengers" film, we saw a lot of struggle in the team finding balance with each other. This simple statement from Steve shows just how far they've come as a family.

11. Ant-Man (2015)


"I was at a wine tasting with my cousin, Ernesto..."

I would personally like Marvel to drop a video of Luis recapping the past ten years prior to "Infinity War" coming out.

12. Captain America: Civil War (2016)

"Sorry, Tony. You know I wouldn't do this if I had any other choice."

This, ladies and gentlemen, is when everyone's hearts broke.

13. Doctor Strange (2016)

Kaecilius: "You will die protecting this world... mister?

Stephen Strange: "Doctor."

Kaecilius:"Mister Doctor?"

Stephen Strange: "It's... Strange."

Kaecilius : "Maybe, who am I to judge?"

The man didn't go to medical school for nothing. Just let him have his well-earned title, Doctor Strange.

14. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

"He may have been your father, boy, but he wasn't your daddy. " -Yondu

This dude is kind of a total jerk, but he does have a point. He's the one who raised Peter, not the psycho guy who is actually Peter's dad.

15. Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

"Don't do anything I would do, and don't do anything I wouldn't do."

It's not every day that Tony Stark basically takes someone in as his child.

16. Thor: Ragnarok (2017)


In hindsight, we probably should have guessed that Odin's never been 'father of the year' and has a crazy daughter to match.

17. Black Panther (2018)

"The real question is, what are THOSE?"

Shuri is SUCH a relatable character when it comes to her sassy sense of humor. Then, you add in the fact that she's a technological genius? How could anyone not love her?


If you haven't yet seen the trailers for "Infinity War," you 100% should watch them right now and get ready for what will definitely be one for the books.



Who's ready to go cry in a theater with me as our favorites are (probably) killed-off?

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
