The rest of the films are sometimes watchable.  

The problem with the avengers is they all have similar powers and are basically over powered and unstoppable.

The hulk, thor, Iron man and captain america and whoever else is in that team are basically all strong and fast.  They dress it up with different story lines, slightly different degrees of power and different reasons behind their powers but they're basically all just strong and fast.  

X men is much better because the powers are more imaginative, like telepathy, metal manipulation, speed, fire manipulation and so on.

I'd say roughly 2/3 of the X-Men films are good. X3, The Wolverine and Apocalypse were pretty bad or sub-par. Not holding my breath for Logan to be any good from the look of things. I'm not sorry they're over at Fox, but I do wish they didn't have control over the rights to the Fantastic Four.

I think DC is the franchise that has more problems with overpowered and unstoppable heroes. Both Hulk and Thor have gone up against foes that whupped on them, in Thor's case the only thing that saved him was Loki's sneakiness when he was fighting that Kurse guy in The Dark World. Captain America got shot all to hell in The Winter Soldier and would have died if Bucky didn't fish him out of the water. Iron Man had to be saved by his girlfriend TWICE at the end of two of his three movies. I don't see the comparison with, say, Superman and Wonder Woman.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
