- Doctor Strange is out! So here's another MCU hero that borders on the magical. Ant-Man! We all thought it would be lame, but it ended up being awesome! Select critics were harsh as usual. This is why they're wrong. Here's everything right with Ant-Man.

I like to add a win for the fact that Cassie's step father truly cared about her and bravely stood up to Yellowjacket to protect her. In a lesser movie he would have been a total coward just to make Scott look better
How about the fact he reconciles with Scott at the end of the movie, and they have a nice, peaceful dinner scene?
Exactly!!
I'm glad someone acknowledged that cliche dodge.
He would have died painfully in a clearly meant-to-be-comedic way.
That is a win. He wasn't a bad guy and did care about Cassie. Sure he didn't get along with Scott and probably had a bias against him (for various reasons). But in the end they both cared about that kid and they managed to reconcile. Good job by the movie with that. Didn't have to make him a bad guy just to make Scott look better.
"are you looking for my daddy?"
"yes, sweetheart."
"hope you don't catch him."
*THUG LIFE*
Bonald Ronald I WAS THE 420TH LIKE!!!

I like the later part where Cross/Yellowjacket is in Cassie's room and she yells out "I want my daddy!" to which Cross replies "I want your daddy too"

Just make a montage of just Marvel's "Luis" narrating for two hours. I'd watch that.
Omg can we please get an Infinity Saga recap from Luis ASAP?

YUP I want Luis to narrate Endgame then I won't cry as much.

"He's so UGLY!
I LOVE HIM!"
I like the way this child thinks
The scene is also clever because it shows that Scott “gets” Cassie better than his ex-wife did.
thats what my parents said when i was born
Than you’ll love Lilo
It’s kind of mirroring that even though Scott’s life is messed up and “ugly” his daughter still loves him
I put a like so you could get 1k
"Keep it out of the hands of Stark"
5 to 7 years later
Gives it to freaking Stark...
Desperate times call for desperate measures. Also it was more like 8 years later.
And also it was Scott who did it. Not Hank. If it was Hank then no way he would root for it. By the time he came back he just have to accept it.
Plus Stark dies within 2 days of having it.
@@trey__918 To be fair, it wasn't because of the tech, but because of Thanos.

8:50 truly shows the difference between CinemaWins and CinemaSins. In the sins video, he complained that Scott is basically instructing the ants to drown themselves to make themselves as a raft for him float. CinemaWins actually researched how these fire ants can make an oxygen barrier around themselves. Crazy what a google search can do!

@@nooby2289 Thanks for clearing it up
Overlooked Win: Cassie's Dad & Stepdad.
Scott Lang wasn't an absentee dad once he left prison unlike Hank Pym who could have been there for his daughter. Scott tried to re- connect with Cassie, when other ex-cons distance themselves.
Paxton was a loving step-dad to kid, regardless of her snark. Not a typical movie step-parent.
I know! Best Dad in all of The MCU!!!

And this is why we have commas...
"He's so ugly, I love him!" That was off the cuteness scale. We're going to need a bigger scale. She just beat Agnes, and the stuffed unicorn that was "So fluffy I'm gonna die!"
They really should have had him gloopify an apple first. Just to make him look like even more of an. Well, you know.
God I hate agnes in those movies
sooo, not gonna mention on how amazing a step dad jim paxton was to cassie? like, he didn’t care that her father is the man he hates, he just wants her to be happy and safe and calls her sweetheart and basically loves her like his own.
I mean she's a good kid and what her dad does for nothing to do with him plus he knew Scott was not a threat to his relationship with his wife
4 years late replying to this, but I wouldn't even say that he hates Scott, just that he's not entirely sure what kind of influence he'll be to Cassie as an ex-con. Paxton doesn't ever target Scott maliciously at all (which he probably would if he hated Scott) and although he's fairly harsh when Scott shows up unannounced to Cassie's party and again when Scott is rearrested, his attitude is still kind of understandable and not vindictive at all. Throughout the film, the guy is literally just doing his job as both a cop and someone who clearly cares about Cassie despite not being her biological father and he has no worries about letting Scott go at the end of the film once he's proved that he's a good guy and can be a good father to Cassie.
"But I got the van!"
"I'm trying to keep this out of the hands of Stark"
...yeah about that...
Well, in the end he didn't get the time to abuse it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I was your 420th like
The victory in Endgame cost so much...
I met Paul Rudd when I went on set of a movie he was in with my dad, a film producer. He was super nice, and a great actor too. He said himself that when he went to quantum level it didn't make sense, because pym particles only shrink the space between the atoms, not the atoms themselves. He was so awesome that he introduced himself to me, because I was way too nervous to introduce myself to him.
That is awesome Seal of Approval! A once in a lifetime experience to meet an actor.
I met a Level a actor once who shall remain unnamed.He called me snarky c*nt bastard
Back before I was born (I'm 11 currently), my Nono, (I'm part Italian), Owned a car shop. One time he was selling an old car, (we own the same type of car but can't use it). The person who was buying it Was Clint Eastwood. Clint ended up buying the car and loving it. A few weeks later he sent my Nono a gift. It was a little kit of fancy shot glasses that my family owns to this day. My mom told me this story. I never knew my Nono because he died, but that story always makes me smile. And I've always wanted to meet a famous person that would be that nice.

“He’s gonna lose his life”
Priorities. No win for that?
I was actually pretty happy that Falcon was the Avenger that showed up in this film because it gave him a chance to get a cool fight scene after missing out on the finale of Age of Ultron. He gets to show off why he’s cool while providing a believable measure of progress to Scott’s training.

i love when Scott takes off the shirt and CinemaWins is just "...oh"
Hank's remark about keeping the Pym particles out of Stark's hands is all the more entertaining in light of how Endgame went down. One has to wonder whether those particulars had already been figured out when this script was finalized.
I would not be surprised if that scene in Endgame was meant as a call-back to Ant-Man. Endgame was full of callbacks to past MCU movies.
You can see Michael Douglas smiling when he says "just a tall tale." It's adorable.
You wonder how many times Pym has made that joke.
3:38 I would have gone with Surveill-ants.
That was perfect my friend... Perfect
PunWin! +1 point!
This is too smart. LEAVE OUR FRAGILE MINDS
Here comes the ant puns
mucsdnop getting antsy at that pun
The line that truly got me was Michael Douglas' " We're doomed!" after Pena gets all excited abt being in the system!
The conflict between Pym and Cross reminds me a lot about Shifu and Tai Lung. They both saw potential in their pupil but they failed to see the darkness in their hearts.
Also, Ant-tony. You'll be missed, buddy. 😢
So does that make Scott the Po of the movie? Thinking about it that would make sense and does fit nicely comparing the personalities of the characters in both movies.
They did see the darkness in their hearts….but far too late
Ant Tony?
5:53 Ehhh, not necessarily. I saw it as Hank scared he'd lose Hope like he lost Janet. Heck, that's why he recruited Scott in the first place. Scott said it to Hope: "I'm expendable."
13:23 “Scott’s reason for everything he does is just to be able to spend time with his daughter” ahhh Endgame Im crying 😭😭😭
I agree this is in my top 3 MCU films.
Also gou forgot "Baskin Robin's never forgets." :)
G-Rated baskin robin’s always knows.
Baskin Robbins always finds out.
Baskin Robins don’t play
The plot isn’t in the top 3 but it’s easily my favorite superhero movie
can't believe you did not give luis "always a win status"
"He's so ugly! I LOVE HIM!" is a line so damn adorable, that I have to pause every time just to be able the cuteness.
"Accepting your reality." Oh. Okay. Just found the Doctor Strange reference.
What sealed the deal for me that they weren't afraid to kill off people in the MCU was Antony not quicksilver
Antony was way more appealing that quicksilver, I agree
Yeah, think of all the kids who were like "mommy I want one too" and then..... poor Antony.
Well you know, you've gotta be pretty dedicated to manage to hit a flying ant with a bullet.
+Zap Gun
Or extremely lucky
Patrick Roelant Antony's death made me feel way more sadder then Quicksilver ever did. Though maybe it's just because I'm too sensitive to see animals hurt in any situation, even if they're not real.
The security guy whistled the tune of "it's a small world after all."
Which is just so clever.
OH I JUST REALIZED THAT OMGGGGGG
Scar: "No, no! ANYTHING but that!"
Hhhooooly crap!
@@EntertainmentFan11 thank you for beating me to it😂
I think the whole thing about Cross using a lamb instead of a mouse was to further him as a villain, but more so because lambs are seen as symbols of innocence rather than it being cuter, and killing an innocent is very villainesque.
OK, if Marvel pulls off Doctor Strange as well as they pulled off Ant-Man and Guardians Of The Galaxy, I'll literally never question them again until they actually make a stinker.
Titan Of Titans No spoilers but dr strange was amazing
some people didn't like AoU or thor the dark world, but I liked both of them, not the best ones, but still fantastic... Iron man 3 was a bit of a let down though.
MagicCardboardBox disappointments are not complete stinkers though.
Titan Of Titans exactly, still great films just not as good as the better ones, which really isn't saying much again st them seeing as the better ones are SO good.
It's at 90% on RT. No criticism for you.
WOW I NEVER SAW WASP WHEN HE WENT INTO THE QUANTUM REALM!!!!!
SUPERSTORM owen zzzzzzzzzzz😙😙
SUPERSTORM owen you didn't see that? I'm calling it right now: Ant Man 2 is gonna rescue Janet Pym.
It's a she.
Apoa's Demon He means when Scott went into the quantum realm
SUPERSTORM owen yeah, that was an awesome catch on their part
Hank actually scared me when he yelled...
He kinda reminded me of my dad in the past.
Oh god Preston no
My parents were both Depression-era farm kids. Dad never yelled ; mom, from the strict upbringing she had, was the disciplinarian. but I understand your point: for me, it would be like mom asking, "Do I have to get the Belt?"
Yeah, I hate it when that happens because i always have to skip that scene or entire episode because its kinda triggering.
The last time it happened to me was when in grey's anatomy Meredith's father slaps her in the hospital in front of everyone. That scene was so real to me I could never watch it again.
"I'll have to shrink between the molecules to get in there"
"I love you cassy"
The science makes no sense, but the idea is great and it is fiction for a reason. So carrying a 60 ton tank meh, why not.

I love your Face guys xD
igds
Everything about ANT MAN made it a fun movie. i felt Michael Douglas stole the movie.
“No way Paul Rudd can carry a film like Chris Pratt.”
I respectively disagree with this. Chris Pratt *IS* awesome in GotG. However, I think Paul Rudd held is own solidly and did an equal (if not better) job with his quips and wit and playing it straight- so it turns out even funnier. Both are great!!
That was said in the context of people reacting to the trailer....
j p Of course I know the writers write the quips. But he has the charisma to pull it off. There was literally no reason for your reply back to me. If you don’t like a comment- move on RUclips police. I wasn’t ranting. I stated an opinion
A little too late on this discussion... but is it not public knowledge that Paul Rudd is one of the screenwriters of this film and the sequel? So he does not only deliver the best comedic lines, he wrote some of it too.
10:40 for some reason, Cross' scream scene still pumps me up. i don't know why. he scream is easy to remember
Nice catch on the external hammer on the Glock, not a lot of people outside firearms culture picked up on what was wrong about that scene.
Will Mills
I still prefer Springfield... Bring the hate. BRING IT!
Will Mills Also, what ever happened to the fabled GLOCK 1911?!
The glock 1911 was a pure photoshop job.
No Body I lean toward Springfield too. Can't believe all you gun guys missed the machine gun flob though. Browning M1919 .30 not M2 .50 BMG.
Will Mills
I know brother, I was just making a funny. Score?
I really liked this movie. The fact that Marvel was willing to try this is a big win for them. They tested the waters for lesser known characters while at the same time establishing a new IP into the MCU. I don't think Doctor Strange would have even came out if Ant-Man hadn't done well. Or if it had still been made it may have not gotten the effort that it did.
I really like your second theory on how the Pym Particles work.
7:46 You say “One of the least expensive Avengers”, I say “Avenger who deserved more screen time”.
I give so much respect for this movie. The advertisement didn't do this movie an favors for me, but god I regret to this day I didn't see this movie when it came out in theaters. Honest Trailers is what got me to rent it, and its in my top 5 favorite Marvel /Superhero movies. Tomorrow ok going to see Dr Strange with my little brother and mom, I didn't have AntMan be my first 3-D experience..but hopefully Strange and AntMan 2 will be just as incredible if not better;).
Really? I found this film to be rather unremarkable. Not bad. Just unremarkable.
Glad you enjoyed it though.
It's funny. The trailer sold us perfectly on the attitude of the film
"You'll be Antman!"
"Uh.. are you locked in on that name?"
(or something like that). Irreverent-- didn't take itself seriously. And yet STILL kept the name and made it respected.
Marvel so far succeeds because they respect the characters. DC has superman killing.
The only poor aspect of Marvel is generic music. I've seen some bits where music appropriate to the scenes is used and the scenes are even better.
I think Deadpool was soooo good because it had a low budget. They really need to hold the budgets down.
Plus marvel films actually translate comic book scenes (like splash pages) effectively to the screen.
And DC is just too dark. They need to lighten up.
5:57 Hank shouting "NO" in slow mo is the best.
Does anyone else think that Antman's score is really comic-like?
Yeah but it's great
Its...a comic book movie
11:58, thanks for actually knowing who she is. I love her work on RUclips, so it's nice she gets some recognition.
I weirdly appreciate them finding a way to keep the "problematic" aspects of Hank Pym in the universe. We shouldn't glorify domestic abuse but pretending it doesn't exist or isn't a component of complex human beings is not helpful either.
I wasn’t to excited to see this movie, but when I saw it, I was like “What have I been missing out on?!”
9:38 Losing a win

CinemaWin: Nonononono... Ding.
Why'd they lose a win, Im confused.
@@dovahkiin7396 simple. A super duper high tech company still uses old ass guns.
@@dinotheruler1690 Nah it was because he was using a Glock 17, which in real life does not have an external hammer, but they added one so the ants could save the day.

It is a solid addition to everything. It has is a good thinking movie. It also has a spiritual side in some things as well. Hard to say more without spoiling.
I NEVER NOTICED THAT WAS PEGGY CARTER
master pp how?
the accent gave it away the overall british accent adds to her character alot
I caught it was an older Peggy. In that scene, I loved when the douche suggested Janet's death was Hank's fault so Hank slammed his face into the deask and Stark Sr. mutters, "Your the one mentioned her." Loved that! Hank was still hurting, grieving and NO ONE was going to stain his love for her!
I'm so glad David Dastmalchian got a chance to flex his acting muscles a bit in The Suicide Squad. His story is absolutely fascinating, and he seems like a good dude
The wasp subatomic thing has me going "OH SHIT!"

7:30 Scott would be excellent at CinemaWins
I don’t know if it’s how Luis says it, or it’s how the actor emphasises it, but the ‘ just chillin ‘ part of the story gets me everytime.
Also, there’s no evidence, but I always thought Hank couldn’t use the suit anymore because of the anger he showed, like it affected him on that level.
That exchange in the beginning between Scott and Louise while they were in the van had me dying 😂😂😂

I'm curious to see his reaction to Jar Jar Binks.
Fernando Aguilera tbh he's really not that bad, and his appearances clearly decrease as the movies progress, implying that Lucas noticed that people didn't really like jar jar...but literally nobody in any of the movies showed much proof of liking jar jar
Jar Jar was originally supposed to be Yoda's counterpart. Unfortunately, Lucas didn't reveal that soon enough and the backlash made him balk.
There are many scenes in the first prequel which blatantly show Jar Jar using drunken gods style martial arts and using force powers. And the jedi don't even sense it. As the goofy yoda was a disquise, the goofy Jar Jar was a disquise. It's very likely Jar Jar was as old as or older than Yoda (and survived the "rule of two" being implemented).
Woah, woah, woah. I just realized while watching this video that the tank shown in the archive footage (1:10) is the same tank that Hank uses at the end. That a continuity win!
It would be great if you could make everything great about The Incredible Hulk, it is such a criminally underrated marvel movie that it needs some wins...
AboAbdulable it's the only movie in the mic I dislike
AboAbdulable I haven't seen the whole thing yet but I saw a tiny bit of it at a hotel once. I know people skip it because they got Ruffalo for our main Hulk instead but it seemed from that snippet like a genuinely good film.
It's a lot easier to appreciate if you're a fan of the 1970's "Incredible Hulk" tv series.
Especially the intro. I could watch that over and over - the second half is forgettable, but the intro really works well!!
AboAbdulable straight up. Tim Roth as abomination!!! That nigga Stabbed Tupac!!!!
I think the smartest thing they did was jump past the Hank Pym ant man and instead make Scott Lang's Ant Man the focus. Aside from the fact that I really liked this elderly mentor character who for once didn't die halfway for the film, having it be Hank Pym doing a origin story would have killed the film. Comic Book Hank Pym is reprehensible, pointless and boring. There is only two things about Hank Pym, that he created Ultron and the domestic abuse against Janet (I don't know the context and I don't want to because it is indefensible). The MCU showed that you didn't need Hank to create Ultron so there is nothing Hank could bring to the Avengers. He would be just another 'Smart' person but without Tony's charm or Bruce's tragedy. Meanwhile Scott brings the powers but also with a fresh perspective.
And credit where it is due, this film made me care about Hank Pym. Film Hank Pym I would love to see more of and see him interact with other marvel characters. At the very least I would love to see Hank and Tony in a room together, just to see them duke it out.
Agree about the good of skipping Hank's origin and just letting it eek out. However, it should be remembered that the whole "abusive" thing was an artistic error. The intent was for Hank, at a desk, working feverishly, to throw his hands up in frustration, errantly hitting Janet whom was standing much closer than he knew. The artist drew a dramatic standing backhanded blow ('cause everything had to staged for max drama, right?)...the poor panel ran b/c there wasn't time to have it redone and still be the pages to press. Why Marvel allowed other writers to build on the asshole myth instead of ignoring the error, I don't know, but it bugs me b/c Hank cherished Janet.
“Scott won’t tell anyone so he made it fast and small” ends up saving the world with it
9:39 REMOVING A WIN?! Woah! I've never seen you do that, before!
As always, wonderful video CinemaWins!
I re-watched this movie a couple days ago and having seen Endgame more than once, the "I've been trying for years to keep this tech out of the hands of a Stark" line made me chuckle a bit because all the Avengers get Ant-Man like suits.
Antman and Wasp were some of my favorite heroes growing up, I’m so excited that these movies are being made.
7:37 should've been an honesty win.
3:57-4:00: And this time make it a kitten because I'm not sure everyone got the picture!

some of the most genuinely funny jokes in the MCU are in Ant-Man :)

@@AzguardMike it's true, Scott is one of the funniest characters
and gotg
Who is gonna tell Luis that his van got destroyed in endgame....
It was all he had 0:48
When I saw the trailers (knowing little about Antman) I was exited for the movie, mainly because you could immediatly tell that this was a fundamentaly different origin story to the rest of the MCU. I mean, a genius billonaire + sidekick, a supersoldier from 70 years ago, a scientist/rage monster, a demigod, two professional assasins, an artificial lifeform, a mutant/witch, and a veteran with a pretty unique deployment. And that last one is the most ordinary of them all (which makes the interaction between Falcon & Antman pretty appropriate actually). Introducing Antman as someone from the other end of the social spectrum was a brilliant move in terms of character constellation, and that played out pretty well in Civil War.
And similar things could be said about the action; They deliberatly went for the fundamentally different type, literally on the opposite end of the scale.
This wasn't a random character being thrown into the mix to bridge the time until Civil War. There was clearly a lot of narrative method behind this in the grand sceem of the MCU.
I walked out of the theater thinking "Well, I enjoyed this, it was different. And I can't wait to see how the rest of the team will interact with this rather ordinary guy."
Which I'm pretty sure was the intention.
"If a movie can make me tear up over an ant, you know it did something right."
--Yup.
love your channel! !
yeeaah
Still wondering and waiting to see if Jeremy will do a video with you... or if he hates you.

The smaller you are, the less you will take from fall damage, so that fall probably wouldn't be fatal, I also doubt serious injuries.
An ant can be thrown out of a plane and survive the fall with little injuries.
I really wish that Hank could have made a serum, that gave his daughter an ability to control ants, while Hank and Scott used that gadget thing.
DO TWILIGHT! Lol... It's a great challenge!
My favourite MCU film- I may be technically more of a Cap fan, but this movie is pure cinematic joy on a popsicle stick, and it turned shrinking from body horror into a power fantasy. Hooray for Ant-Man!
this is the most underrated movie in the mcu, it's more unique seeing as it isn't a conventional superhero movie and the villain isn't all about taking over the world and killing everyone. this is a superhero heist film which focuses on redemption and i personally think Darren Cross/Yellowjacket is a great villain. he's not as great as Loki or Killmonger but he is more believable seeing as he's a corrupt businessman who doesn't care about who he hurts, also his death scene where he starts Shrinking uncontrollably until he dies is not only epic but appropriate for a villain who was killed by the power he tried to get his hands on. Ironic deaths are the best kind.
Honestly, I was excited when I heard the Ant Man movie was coming out. I'm a pretty big fan of Pym and his various personas. And even though I missed the Scott Lang era entirely, Pym was in the film, and that's enough for me
Peggy Carter is always a win. Don't mean to tell you how to do your job, but you forgot that one.
3:05 "They kind of invented a whole new exposition delivery system!"
Clearly this guys knows *nothing* about the genius that is Edgar Wright...!!
I love Edgar Wright! Scott Pilgrim is one of my favorite movies. And Edgar Wright does have some great techniques. But as far as I know, he had left by the time Reed added the tip montage. It's definitely reminiscent of Wright, but I don't think he had anything to do with it. People like to credit Wright with things like quick cuts and in this case swipe cuts with lip syncing, but directors have been doing stuff like that forever. Paul Thomas Anderson, Darren Aronofsky, even Alfred Hitchock.
@@CinemaWins I read somewhere that the scene wasn't actually Wright's idea and that it was planned after Reed came on board as the director.
You,Cinemasins, Lindsay Sterling, and a few other RUclipsrs are my go to when I feel sick or have a stomachache and you know what you always make me smile and happy and for that I just want to say thank you hope you're having a good day or night and that you keep being awesome!!
"A Center For Ants" was indeed the name of the music used for that scene.
And the exposition style was Pena's idea.
I love your channel so much! You make a lot of really great observations about films and compliment them, regardless of whether or not they were well-received by critics. I love your attention to detail and how much you focus on the strengths of the narrative rather than the weaknesses. Keep up the great work! :)
Great video!
I agree that Ant-Man is a fun film. I really enjoyed it when it came out.
However, there's one small plot hole that you missed. It's established that even though something shrinks, it's still the same weight and mass, or something like that. Since that's the case, why was Hank able to hold the tank like he did? Unless it's a toy, it should be impossible for him to carry at all!
Keep up the great videos!
He addressed that in his theories, watch it again
Oops! My mistake. Thank you for correcting me :) I must have misunderstood what he was talking about. Thanks again :)
I'm still confused about it, though. If the "science" behind the pym particle is not truly revealed, how come ant-man can still punch someone effectively in that size
Interestingly because of the mass the Thomas Tank Engine toy being enlarged should have just floated like a balloon and would not be able to crush a cop car
Banana maybe different intensities of particles affects how an object interacts with them?
I just watched this for the first time tonight and is now honestly one of my favorite Marvel movies ever. Sure it didn’t have as much action but it was fucking hilarious and the plot was still good. Can’t wait to watch part 2 tmrw night!!
This was one of the movies i thought would be a bit too stupid because his powers was to turn small but still turned out to be one of my most favourite Heroes
I loved the Ant-Man movie, and I like the Scott Lang that the MCU got out of it. I'm just sad it had to come at the price of Hank Pym having any reasonable chance of being a proper Avenger, like he should be.
He's my favourite superhero, and now he's going to be known primarily as an old science guy, who used to be Ant-Man, rather than the founding Avenger and size-changing super scientist that he is in the comics.
And if you don't think this will affect the comics as well, I would just like to point out that the comics recently introduced Hank Pym's long lost daughter Nadia (whom no one knew about), and gave Darren Cross a Yellowjacket suit.
well to be fair, scott doesn't have any bad connotations from the comics like domestic abuse.
I actually like what they did with Hank Pym. He wasn't too happy with Howard Stark trying to get access to his suit, and at a time where he'd just lost his wife (probably forever), he's not having any of it from anyone.
Besides, Pym created Ultron in the comics, and it actually makes more sense to shunt the creation of the murderous AI to the already-established Science Bros, Stark and Banner (one of whom already created an AI).
*****
In the main universe, it was ONE punch. That's bad, but not unforgivable. And Pym has worked hard to try to earn that forgiveness. It shouldn't taint the entire character. People don't condemn Tony Stark for his alcoholism or Scarlet Witch for going crazy, so I don't think Hank Pym should be reduced to one bad moment either. You could even blame it partially on Pym particle induced mental issues, if you need more reason to forgive him.
Also, I don't think that has anything to do with the choices made in this movie. Edgar Wright wanted a passing-of-the-torch movie, so he needed an old Hank to pass the torch.
Regarding Scott, he doesn't have any issues in the comics, because he's a minor character in the comics (or was, before the movie). He doesn't have nearly as much history as Pym, so there's not nearly as much room for mistakes. Also, he's a former thief, so he's not completely clean.
+Reality Rejection Service
I appreciate the MCU version of Pym for what he is, but Hank Pym deserves to be an Avenger, and now that's very unlikely.
Also, of course it makes sense in the MCU to leave the mad science to the established science characters, rather than introducing a new character just to have him build Ultron, but the problem is that Hank Pym should have been introduced earlier, as an Avenger, so he could be around to create Ultron.
The original idea for the Avengers movie actually included Hank Pym and Janet van Dyne as Ant-Man and the Wasp, but their names were tied up in this Ant-Man movie, so they were replaced with Hawkeye and Black Widow (early on, obviously, but still).
Alex Larsen The thing is, domestic abuse is something that's very grounded in reality, and I'm not saying that alcoholism isn't but domestic abuse is certainly (and rightfully) seen as much much worse. Personally I think they made the right call going with scott, but I also think that hank should have been introduced earlier on, he could have even worked with selvig on the tessaract, giving him a reason to work on the staff. All in all i don't think they did anything wrong, but they could have done some things better.
Zoolander reference was easily the best part of this video. Hilarious.
I never doubted for a second that Paul Rudd could pull off a roll like this since he was in Parks & Recreation season 4
I always thought that the reflection on his helmet was Doctor Strange. But now that the Wasp has been mentioned it makes more sense for it to be her than Strange.
Two ways to tie Dr. Strange into the MCU (I haven't seen the movie, so don't tell me), but 1. Strange opened a portal that allowed Stark to fall into NYC at the end of "Avengers" because the portal opened by the Tesseract closed. 2. Strange creates a separate reality inside of microspace that allows Scott Lang to escape. Don't ask me to explain the physics, just brainstorming.
James Leffel I have seen the movie, and the second one seems totally possible.
weve seen him with thor and the avengers tower in the city bending shot so you're good.
