Daredevil was incredible, it's the great first chapter to the Netflix wing of the MCU. But everything else was average at best. Agent Carter is a step up from AOS, but that show is terrible (though it looks to start getting better). AoU underperformed in every way imaginable (still a decent flick, but nowhere near the first) and Ant-Man is surprisingly not awful.
2014 had two movies (TWS & GOTG) that overperformed to a significant degree. The Winter Soldier is the best MCU film to date, while Guardians became a runaway hit after I was afraid it would get laughed out of the theaters when it was announced.
It certainly hasn't been a disaster this year for Marvel, they're still printing money and keeping people interested in their content. But all things being equal, I'd consider 2014 to be a larger success.
