I think Captain America 2 and Avengers 1 were the best two marvel comic based movies. I'd call it a tie between GotG and Deadpool over the #3 spot.

Maybe once I put some distance between just watching it, it will fall down a spot or two, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. Capt America 2 and Iron Man 1 would currently be right behind this and Avengers 1. So, 1) GotG 2) Deadpool/Avengers 1 tie 3) Capt America 2 4) Iron Man 1 5) most of the other Marvel studios and new x-men ones are all interchangeable here, depending on my mood, then all the less stellar Fox ones after that (spider man, old xmen, wolverine, etc..).

I realize I may be in the minority here, but I thought Colossus was the weak point. He wasn't terrible, but for me, the weakest part of the movie. I really wish they were able to get Hugh Jackman to cameo as Wolverine. My money is on that happening in the sequel however...

Colossus was basically playing the part of Captain America here, the moral compass straight man. He was the weakest link by design. Angel Dust was probably the least well executed part of the movie, but she was a last minute budget rewrite and there to give the viewer some action at the end, so it really did not matter as much.
It is a matter of opinion, but I liked this equal to Guardians, which was my favorite comic related movie of the last decade or two (I found parts of Avengers 1 to be a bit forced in comparison) and I would go on to say that it is arguably the best comedy of the last decade or so, as well. The only other movie with mainstream appeal that I can compare it to would be something like Tropic Thunder, which also was both innovative and non-stop jokes. Even if you don't feel this to be the top of those categories of movie, the success (both critical and financial) this movie has had will change the face of movies for the next few years in the same way Fury Road has. I hope the suits learned the right lessons, but the cynic in me expects another "Post Die Hard" period where its just a solid decade of watered down knockoffs.

I don't remember colossus ever being that 'goody two shoes' in the comics. I thought he had started out working for criminals as a hired hand and such, and he has generally been in the grey area morally. I suppose he's 'post xavier' in this movie, where he has been converted over, so it's fine. But, I've always liked him as a character alot. Visually, always thought he looked pretty awesome. Was my favorite character to play on that old Xmen arcade game side scroller with 4-6 players. So, I was just glad he was in the movie.

Colossus has always been pretty square.
He's just Russian so we're used to them being shitty people

Last I remember, Colossus was carrying her out of the wreckage. Not sure if they showed her after that
