    i feel like upon diving into the multiverse, there has been no stakes due to the vast opportunities regarding endless story making. because of this, the mcu universe is bound to always win with minor consequences. the movie would’ve been great if Scott was stuck in the quantum realm after defeating kang, which would imply that they won with a cost

      And a case to backpedal if they need to. Apparently, the next Dr. Strange film WILL have The Superior Iron-Man, so I guess he was just taking a vacation while his colleges were getting slaughtered that day and they also decided he wasn't worth bringing up to Strange, so he was lucky, it looks like. Totally not at all feeling like this was thought up after the fact.

    I did not want Kang to lose. I wanted him to win. Not just in this movie but in other solo hero movies before Kang dynasty. Because that would have been really cool that a villain is destroying one by one each avenger before they all realise they need to team up and avenge the fallen.
    I certainly did not want him to get beaten by ants, no matter how futuristic, and high tech they are. I just don’t. Which is why i want this movie to fail.
    I’m tired of marvel not taking risks and giving us the same boring happy ending with no serious consequences to the main character’s life. Also who the heck even cares about that quantum civilisation. Can’t even remember their names.

      The story is barely there, and the characters get stripped of everything they’re supposed to be.
      -Ant-Man: Saved the universe. Perceived loser who gets bailed out of his 2 hero moments by Wasp.
      -Kang: talks about killing Thor. Throws Rudd and Cassie around a prison like nothing. Built an army. Nudered in the second half.
      -Cassie: untrained combatant and super genius, with a suit I guess?! Does almost nothing to earn superhero status.
      -Modok: Brilliant scientist turned super killing machine. A literal punching bag for gags. Sacrificed for barely-there character arc.
      -Wasp: should have gotten the hero badge. Saves Ant-Man 2x, is otherwise non existent.
      -Hank: genius scientist. Treated like a dope.
      -Pfiefer: scientist and super survivor. Turned into a lying hussy who somewhat caused a mass genocide. Oops. Redemption? Nope. Ant Army. 🤷🏻‍♂️
      Fun movie, but writing was trash and the backlash is deserved. The more I think about it the more it hurts my brain lol. How’d that script slide through that many people?!

    Ant-man and the Wasp Quantumania SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN one of the first movies to introduce Kang. Given that the Marvel formula always has it that the hero triumphs over the villain, Ant-man is one of the worst heroes to be shown defeating Kang. It immediately lowers how serious we're supposed to take Kang, which is a bad idea if he's supposed to be the next big bad. The only way this could've worked is that Kang actually does defeat Ant-Man and kill him, raising the stakes and giving an actual big death for the heroes.

I have no idea what that should be but def not the ants. or Modak. Take Modak out, Kang is too powerful for a lackey. It shouldve been like you said. A sacrifice shouldve been the only thing that could stop him.

If she could learn quantum tech in 5 years without their assistance, then everyone would be doing it and all the villains who want the tech would be able to replicate it easily. She literally has a natural affinity for it which just doesn’t make sense. It’s just like riri Williams being able to make an Ironman suit. Like wow, guess it was just that easy huh?

    The threat of Kang isn't Kang himself like with Thanos, it's his knowledge of the multiverse and the fact that even if you manage to kill 10 variants there are still 1000 that are plotting something similar. If you look at it in the same lens as we looked at Thanos then of course Kang being defeated so easily is a problem but when you understand who Kang really is you realize one Kang being defeated means basically nothing in the grand scheme of things.

      Why not? Without his tech (which was disabled by the giant ants), he's just a really smart and ripped human with good hand-to-hand skills.
      Or did Marvel's writers give you too much credit in expecting you to put visual context clues together about the ants disabling Kang's powered suit (thus taking away his powers; as the suit and chair are established to be the source of his power during Janet's flashback scene) - both with the large sparks flying off his suit when the ants are attacking him, as well as a shot of his left gauntlet (his right arm's being ripped off; hence his bare arm) short circuiting?

      I found the cgi to be unbelievably bad. I also found it to be unbelievable that the actors were able to recognize him as Darren Cross. His head was too stretched out and distorted to recognize him as Darren Cross. Darren doesn't have a round head. They should have kept his head and face rectangular to make him more recognizable. One of the biggest problems with the CGI for Modok was they didn't even model it appropriately. Lots of scenes were just his flat face pasted into the scene with no dimensionality. It was very poorly done. However, Corey Stohl did an amazing job. The VFX artists did an amazing job given the time restraints and abuse they were put through. Disney and Feige are to blame and forced this movie through too fast. We basically got Cyperpunk'd on this one.

    I think the biggest disappointment for me is that Peyton Reed said Ant-Man and the Wasp would partially be a rom com and it barely felt that way. Considering how he made successful rom coms in the past and I wouldn't have minded the movie being part heist movie, part rom com. So to hear that The Wasp herself is barely relevant in this movie, along with other gripes, is just depressing.
    Ant-Man and The Wasp may not be the most interesting MCU characters but they have the most unique superpowers out of most of the Avengers. Shrinking and growing themselves while also shrinking and growing anything else? AND communicating with different races of ants who have their own "powers" and using them as sidekicks? That's so freaking cool!
    Here's hoping Scott's memoir will be great. I already pre-ordered it and I'm hoping he talked with Doctor Strange about how they were the only Avengers who traveled the Quantum Realm before Endgame.

  • @DoctorWhoHugh
    @DoctorWhoHugh Год назад +26

    I am 90% sure that Kang is alive. THAT Kang varient will be the big bad. I think originally the ending would've had Scott and Hope stuck there wtih Kang escaping, but they probably wanted to preserve that twist. I wonder if this leads into Loki where each pieces of Kang's personality was split accross the Time Line, with the worst part trying to regain control or something. At least that is the set-up before everything goes wrong, like that massive tonal shift 3/4 of the way through Agents of Shield Season 1.
    I really loved this movie, I get why people didn't, but I can't wait to see what comes next. I also read a great theory that Scott fell back into a different timeline, hence why people looked at him weird and the food tasted horrible (food is food DALE). But regardless, can't wait for what comes next!

      @jayw3512 Год назад +1

      Agree. Scott’s timeline is somewhat altered now. Remember when Scott got trapped in Endgame, and 5 hours in the QR was 5 years real time. So, let’s say they got trapped for few hours, then more time should’ve passed with Lang’s timeline.

    Here's who I want to see as variants of the multiverse: characters from The Gifted (including recasting Andy because of the crap Percy Hynes White did), the "Avengers" members of The Incredible Hulk movies (never watched them but I've seen a video with interviews from the actors), 2005 Fantastic Four, Venom. I haven't watched the rest but Wesley Snipes's Blade, Mattfleck Daredevil, the previous two actors who played The Punisher, Johnny Blaze, The Hoff's Nick Fury, a version of The Falcon who CAN control birds. There are so many of them that cameoing in just Secret Wars doesn't feel like enough. I almost don't want them to destroy the multiverse unless they recover their universes. The Arrowverse's Crisis on Infinite Earths ended by recovering only a few Earths and bringing the main shows, two of which taking place in their own Earths, into one universe. Which is what I imagine the MCU will do with the X-Men franchise. What I don't want them to do after Secret Wars is completely separate them from the multiverse, forbid variants from traveling to other Earths and destroy ALL of it.
    Edit: another character I'd love to see come back would be The Supreme Intelligence! Remember how it took the appearance of whatever the character in front of it admired the most? It's the perfect excuse to have actors playing fan favorite characters once again and it's even more grandiose when it confronts multiverse variants!

    Ant-man 3 didn’t really feel like an Ant-man film. It felt like the Flash CW show. The first 2 seasons were about the flash, but afterwards it’s the Flash team show. This film is like the Ant-man team movie. It’s not really about Ant-man it’s about his daughter and Janet. This is a slight tangent but I miss the 2000s era of superhero films like the blade, the dark knight, and the Spider-Man trilogy. They focused on the titular character, but now we don’t have that. We have these MCU projects that are so intertwined that they’re just platforms to introduce new characters we don’t care about. Which is a reason I don’t think big interconnected movie universes are always good. Sometimes a good standalone film or trilogy is fine…. Actually, there are so many similarities between CW DC shows and the MCU it’s frightening. Hopefully, the MCU doesn’t become CW DC shows.

    How did the Thor joke undercut the villain when Kang a couple lines later calls Scott, Ant Man, meaning Kang knew the entire time and was playing dumb.

    A Conqueror gets beat by essentially a support-type avenger and his friends.
    (Ass Pull 1)The ants landed somewhere else and suffered time dilation whilst the main cast ended in the quantum realm(that could pass but I guess they needed something to beat Kang lol).
    (Ass Pull 2) MODOK had a massive change of heart last second, especially since Kang had a chokehold on him and his power was absolute he was way too quick to betray Kang(not enough time to build relationship with character to have him switch sides like that? what was his motive to betray absolute power?).
    (Ass Pull 3) wasn't the beacon just supposed to be a "beacon" like they said "A telescope for the quantum realm" or a messaging system so? how can they use that to open portals when Kang needed his ship's massive power cell to escape the quantum realm?(Hope and Scott should've been left behind to help rebuild. Then Cassandra would work on tech to open up a portal to the quantum realm again and save them after years or something)
    My other concern is Scott realizing the he fucked up at the end by killing Kang and just ignores it lol by now I would hope that he would have taken that warning seriously, and done something like Tony Stark and warn the protectors of earth that something is coming.
    I'm not a writer but damn even I can tell this is bad. If you don't keep track of the story too deeply it's a fun family movie.
    Jonathan majors was the biggest reason I enjoyed this film. Phenomenal acting.
