The Marvel Cinematic Universe BUT IT RHYMES

HeroBoltsyHeroBoltsy Member Posts: 785 ★★★
With Avengers: Endgame coming soon, I wanted to recap the entire MCU such that me and my mates would not have to explain every single detail to each other in the dark of the theater. But watching every single film would, to be honest, not fun. And so I decided to attempt a feat that (I don't think) no one has ever achieved before:

Recap all the MCU films.

In poetry.

I hope y'all will join me on my journey through the MCU.
So, let's start from the beginning, one last time.

MARVEL STUDIOS' IRON MAN

BUT IT RHYMES
My name is TONY STARK,
And for many years, I spent my life happy as a lark.
You see, my father founded the Stark Industries company.
And now, the CEO just happens to be me.
Everyone buys Stark weapons. Trust me, I know,
Even the military asked me to demonstrate the new missile “Jericho”.
But my transport was attacked, blown up by a bomb
I sat in a chair while they threatened me, so evil and yet so calm.

Turned out these “Ten Rings” had kidnapped another man,
A scientist, Ho Yinsen. And so we began to develop a plan.
We built a device called the Arc Reactor,
In our weaponized suit of armor, it was to be the most crucial factor.
I wore the suit and torched their goons,
They could not escape the IRON MAN, those buffoons.
Yinsen died, but I managed to make it home.
But I longed for the freedom of the suit, and how it allowed me to roam.
So now Stark Industries doesn’t sell guns,
And in my Mark II, I fought a bunch of terrorists in a tank. And won.
It was so easy. They barely had heard a whistle,
When they realized they were being attacked, and suddenly:

TANK MISSILE.

But it turns out my real enemy was Obadiah Stane.
He had sent the Ten Rings after me, desiring...something? Money? Fame?
He wanted to take over Stark Industries as its new head,
But I sent Pepper to search his computer instead.
She found out that he gave the weapons to the bad guys,
But then Stane stunned me at my house, stole my Reactor, left me to die.

But I reused the first Reactor, and put on my suit.
I went to fight Stane, the similarly armored brute.
But I flew high up, and while so did he, his suit froze.
But even after he hit the ground, the Iron Monger still rose.
I asked Pepper to overload my large Arc Reactor, surging the power,
And Stane fell into it, dead before the end of the hour.

Afterwards, the press had a few queries and questions,
And Coulson, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., had a few suggestions.
He gave me an alibi, a cover story to explain that night.
I’d say Stane disappeared on a plane, not in a fight.
So I nodded, walked up to the podium, and faced the reporters.
They were curious, anxious, and filling up my headquarters.
My friend Rhodey told me, “Stick to the cards.”
Because why wouldn’t I? The story had so many safeguards.
So I picked up the prepared statement, and I began.
The truth is…

I am Iron Man.

    So, is anyone gonna do the Thanos Snap Rap?
  • Mitchell35Mitchell35 Member Posts: 1,897 ★★★★
    Oh dang. I’d listen to this if someone rapped it and stuck it on Spotify.

    Wow, thanks for all the support guys. Makes me really satisfied that six of y'all are liking this.
    I'm doing all the MCU films in order, however, so Infinity War is probably going to be the last one I post on here; the "Grand Finale" if you will. I guess you could rap it, though I'm not really a rap person myself. Anyways, I'm going to go work on Iron Man 2 now. See y'all soon!

    Anyone remember the Marvel Musical? It had every movie up to The Avengers?

    Do you mean Marvel Universe Live? That was a play, not a musical.

    Huh, I've never seen that Marvel Musical. Curious. I think I'll watch it...after I'm done with all this, I want to keep this my own work and seeing something similar would probably mess with my mind on that.
    @Yellow8Fellow good to see you enjoyed the bird rhyme lol but why did you have to bring up the Spider-Man Broadway "musical" lol

    Seriously watch it it’s hilarious.
    Especially considering everyone that died in infinity war

    Nice Thanos rap, @XxLoganTDCxX . I've got a couple of ideas for the Infinity War poem (which, again, will be released last). I think if you're able to incorporate quotes into the poem/rap, it works much better than without, because then some of your lines will be premade for you lol

    Beautiful limerick, @LeNoirFaineant , just... beautiful. I actually finished up Thor, for which I changed up the rhyming a little. So here y'all go:

    MARVEL STUDIOS' THOR

    BUT IT'S A SERIES OF LIMERICKS
    I am THOR, son of Odin
    The Allfather who took from the Frost Giants a Casket of Winters Frozen.
    “You shall be the king”, spoke he,
    My brother’s name is Loki,
    And I do love my hair, long and golden.

    *hair toss*

    I was to be recognized as crown prince in a ceremony,
    But Allfather watched the guests closely.
    Along came three Frost Giants,
    Whose king was a tyrant,
    But the Destroyer stopped those brash phonies.

    Now I was mad, and I wanted to attack,
    I gathered my friends, of whom I had no lack.
    We crossed the Bifrost Bridge,
    Arrived in Jotunheim (which felt like a fridge),
    And then I knew there was no going back.

    We attacked the king Laufey, who released a Beast.
    And for a moment, it seemed that it would feast.
    But in came the Allfather,
    Though Laufey declared war (that jerk, that bother)
    Odin saved us, Laufey’s lapdog now as good as deceased.

    Allfather was furious, though, deemed me unfit to rule.
    And I thought that that was unnecessarily cruel.
    But he had made up his mind, of that there was no doubt.
    He said, “I, Odin Allfather, cast you out!”
    ‘Twas like I was moving to a puddle from a pool.

    I was sent to Earth, for causing a war.
    I would return when I had found humility, and not before.
    Odin sent my hammer, too, after me.
    And he engraved upon it, something that made me unhappy.
    "Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor."

    As soon as I arrived on Earth, I was ran over by three scientists in a car.
    I wanted to punch something, but I was tased and began to see stars.
    After a bit, I heard my hammer had landed on Earth fifty miles away.
    I went towards it; without it, I would have to stay.
    And so I traveled with the scientists a great distance very far.

    But I could not lift the hammer, for worthy, I was not.
    The agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. interrogated me after I was caught.
    But one of the scientists freed me, a deed like no other.
    We had some fantastic drinks. They were great. Another!
    You know, I think I rather like these humans a lot.

    But then the Destroyer came, wrecking everything in sight.
    And I stood against it, ready for a fight.
    I wanted to protect the helpless humans,
    But all I got was a vicious backhand.
    And suddenly, Mjolnir, to my hand, took flight.

    I was once more the God of Thunder.
    I had learned from all my past mistakes and blunders.
    I returned to Asgard, where the Frost Giants were invading.
    Though Loki killed Laufey, nothing good, he seemed to be aiding.
    Indeed, to see Asgard in his charge and not in flames was a wonder.

    Loki tried to destroy the Frost Giants’ home.
    To stop him, I destroyed the Bifrost with my hammer of uru and chrome.
    We fell into space, but Odin caught us.
    Yet Loki still fell into a black hole, nothing left to discuss.
    I hope that somewhere still, Loki continues to roam.

    I was very sad, for the Bifrost bridge, and for my brother.
    Most of all, I missed Jane Foster, a human like no other.
    I could not visit Earth while the Bridge was broken.
    But Heimdall knew Foster was looking for me, and informed me through kind words spoken.
    And to write this story...what an honor, and yet, what a bother.

    i'm sorry the ending is so bad but i actually havent seen thor either

    Thanks for reading, once again, and keep posting your own musical ideas!

    It just simply popped in my head, lol. I feel like every Marvel fan must know about the weird stages that Marvel has gone though over the years. The musical is weird, but that Green Goblin song is so ridiculous that I love it.
  • HeroBoltsyHeroBoltsy Member Posts: 785 ★★★
    I think it's definitely a part of Marvel's history, "Turn off the Dark". It's just... not a good part of it. As a Broadway music fan, it's really interesting what they tried to achieve with the web swinging...but did it have to be THAT kind of music? Someone at Marvel should make fun of that in Far From Home, haha.

    Thanks @HeroBoltsy @Wakanda4Ever278 it was fun to write.
  • HeroBoltsyHeroBoltsy Member Posts: 785 ★★★
    It was definitely fun to read, @LeNoirFaineant . If anyone else wants to have a go at poems based on the MCU or the game or Marvel in general, by all means go ahead!
