Greetings, true believers! This week’s film quiz is all about The Marvels – the 32 films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, that is…


You know how it is, you wait ages for a quiz round about the Marvel Cinematic Universe to come along and suddenly, there’s three at once. As The Marvels arrives in cinemas worldwide (read Lauren’s review here), we’ve got a bunch of questions on all things Marvel Studios, from the cast to the plots and all those little MacGuffins we’re supposed to remember. It’s trickier writing challenging questions for this franchise than any other, let me tell you.

Once you’ve completed all three rounds, you’ll find a link to a separate post with the correct answers at the bottom of this post. This is just for fun and there are no prizes, but please let us know how you did in the comments (scores out of 31 this week!) and give us any other lovely feedback. Here we go, time to quiz-ssemble, or something!

ROUND ONE – Earth’s Mightiest Heroes
