I know what you’re about to say. “Trisha,” you’ll begin, “most of what you’re adding to the list isn’t canon to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.”

Okay, that’s fair. But this is what I say to you in response: What? Are you scared?

Up until recently, it was easy to separate the official list of MCU movies from the rest of the Marvel universe. All you had to do is go by what Disney was pushing out, from Iron Man to Thor: Love and Thunder. But the superhero waters have gotten murky. Sony’s Spider-Man started crossing over into the Avengers movies, Disney produced Deadpool & Wolverine, and then Disney bought literally everything else even remotely connected to Marvel.

So here’s what I propose. While you could go with the pared-down version of the MCU watch order you can find on so many other sites, I challenge you to watch this ultimate non-canon MCU list. It features every Marvel property that can be found on Disney+ under their Marvel category, including the Netflix Original series, the multiple Spider-Man universes, X-Men, and the scores of live-action shows and shorts (the shorts are italicized so they’re easy to spot). I’m listing them in chronological order based on when they came out along with links straight to where to watch them. (And if you want to fight me about this, you know where to find me.)
