Let's discuss those who have generally been credited with stealing the show during their earliest appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Those in the poll are often brought up on occasion, but there are likely others who've stolen the show during their appearances.
Also note that long-established characters may have stolen the show during later films involving other established characters. Feel free to mention them, but the general point of this thread is to focus on first-time appearances and whatnot.
Discuss!

I picked Killmonger, Drax, and Coulson, but there are definitely good cases to be made for a lot of the rest.

Kilmonger and Drax
Kilmonger set Black Panther on fire (literally in some cases) and just came across as a well thought out villain that you couldn't dismiss
Drax is just a treasure and someone that could have been a one note character and became interesting

Every single time Drax is on screen you are guaranteed to belly laugh because you are just waiting for him to say something in reaction to whatever is going on.
"How could he make love to your mother , he is a planet he would squish her"

Luis elevated the Ant-Man movies a ton.

I'm throwing my votes to Loki who pretty much has all of the memorable parts of Thor 1 and is a standout in most of his other appearances as well, Drax who could've easily been the most forgettable member of the Guardians but in my view is probably the funniest, and Killmonger, who I'm basically convinced Black Panther 2 won't be anywhere near as good for not having.

Luis elevated the Ant-Man movies a ton. I'm just disappointed that Infinity War didn't start with Luis recapping the events of the previous movies.

same choices from me, loki stole lots of scenes from the first Thor movie onwards. Drax seems to just be batista being a goof, korg "piss off ghost!*kicks wall* " and so on.

Loki in Dark World at least makes that movie watchable

Other, Ben Kingsley in Iron Man 3. He’s a Liverpool fan!

Can we do specific incarnations of certain characters?
Cause Fat Thor and Professor Hulk are fresh in my mind

Pre-heel turn (or heel reveal, rather) Obadiah was awesome.

- Loki, who was so cool they had to turn him face - Vulture, because every time he isn't on screen people in the audience are asking "Where's Vulture?" - Korg, for this line alone: This thread is sorely lacking in Justin Hammer Damn right. Ain't no way you can have a poll about MCU show stealers and not include the genius visionary behind the power "Ex-Wife" missile. Thank you. God bless Iron Man, God bless America.

Honestly there's a lot of good answers in the MCU movies, but I'm surprised Yondu is getting slept on so much by so many people. Ignoring even the memes that were birthed out of him, one of the takeaways from GOTG Vol. 1 I remember were people praising Rooker's Yondu and in a movie that has a lot of heart & a lot of emotional moments, I feel like Yondu does a lot of the heavy lifting in GOTG Vol. 2 in terms of the arcs Peter, Rocket and Yondu himself (and on a much smaller scale Kraglin) all go on through the movie.
