Feels really weird seeing you catching up with all of us where it wasn't long ago watching you reacting to the first IRON MAN movie! Absolutely love your reactions. Also really hope you'll watch *Man of Steel* soon!
What this movie lacks is LUIS, man. His storytelling was totally necessary here. EDIT: Dude, haven't you seen "Groundhog Day", "Ghostbusters", "Zombieland"??? That's Bill Mohterf*cking Murray!! 🤣🤣🤣
Kang's real name is Nathaniel Richards and he is the descendant of Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four. The thing is he invented time travelling and eventually changed his name to Kang. As a time traveller, he met thousands of his variants and most of them eventually being end up like him 'KANG'....
Dude you’re my favorite fuckin RUclipsr. I’ve been having a shit day with nothing but disappointment all around and the second I saw you uploaded a new video I got my first glimpse of happiness today. Thank you for being who you are and what you do.
@@jdmfsdjs That's a sad comment. Trashing on someone having a bad day, saying they saw a video that made them happy, your reaction is to try and make them feel worse?
People say that Kang in Quantumania was underwhelming, and I could see that the first part, but in reality Kang is weakened in this film. A lot of people don't really understand that. Kang is weakened because he is in the Quantumn Realm. Now, if Kang was outside of the Quantumn Realm and had access to time, then Kang would have been more capable and more powerful like traveling through time, manipulating time, and summoning any weapon from any point in time just like in the comics. And I liked how they did this because it proves that a weak Kang, or even the weakest Kang, can be a big threat, like how Kang conquered the Quantumn Realm, like a whole dimension basically, a weakened Kang conquered a whole dimension. It just goes to show the capability of Kang, and I hope that they can expand on this Kang stuff like every Kang after the one in Quantumania will be stronger and stronger just showing the danger of Kang as a whole.
@theamazingspooderman2697 It literally says in the movie that Kang was exiled to the Quantum Realm because it was a place outside of space and time, so it was the only place that could hold him. Not only that, but when Janet sabotaged Kang's multiversal engine core, she plainly said that she "cut him off from time." So Kang cannot access time, so Kang is nowhere near as powerful as he would be with the power of time literally being on his side. Do you see what I am saying?
At this point, it feels like people straight up didn’t even pay attention when it was explained that he was weakened. Because it was made very clear that Kang was at his weak point and the reason why it was so important to keep Kang in the quantum realm is because of he had access to space and time, he would be a billion times more powerful than he is in the quantum realm. The movie had it’s problems, but Kang carried the movie.
17:19 -- that WAS the purpose of the TVA. Kang is a genius inventor from the far future, and Kang we met at the end of Loki won the multiverse war he started with the other versions of himself. And he was in control of the sacred timeline and created the TVA, and trimmed any chances of the multiverse coming back. Once that Kang was killed by Sylvie, it was the wild west again, no more clipping branches. So all the other Kangs can rise up again to fight for control. The Kang in this movie is Kang the Conqueror. Possibly the most violent one (or maybe not, there's still alot of MCU to be written) Phase 5 and 6 are gonna be wild.
They may be changing the whole villain now. After the whole incident with Johnathan Majors, they may have put themselves in a story telling dilemma, by letting him go. Either they find another actor, or go straight into Doctor Doom, which personally I'd be more hype for.
@@desariocannon5222 it would be pretty awkward if they wrap up Loki and Quantumania off camera with "oh cool, we beat kang!" -- its much easier to have his variants start to look like John David Washington on John Boyega. They've recast characters in the MCU plenty of times.
@@tomkvideo With No Way Home and Loki, they have at least a grounds for the same "character" being different baseline people. Use some of that footage from the end credits of Quantumania, squeeze in the newer actor into it, and now we have a new actor playing Kang.
@@AnotherViewer I always thought it would have been cool to have Kang variants more like the Loki ones.. For instance a female Kang or an older Kang played by someone like Denzel Washington. That's a good way to show how dangerous he can be while changing it up a bit.
5:04 "Everything's getting sucked!" Cue Piper Peri meme. I blew pop out my nose when you dropped that one, Alex! Great reaction, and I am looking forward to more with Kang! And YES, WATCH STAR WARS!!!! Watch them in order of release (4,5,6,1,2,3,Rogue 1, Han Solo,7,8,9). Anything else will be too confusing or spoil things.
I thought the end fight between Scott and Kang was so awesomely brutal that I was legit scared for Scott's life and then it was kind of a let down when Hope just came back through and saved his life. And then even more of a let down when they just reopened the portal from the other side. Seems lazy and dropped the stakes that were built up.
@@pikachuspartan1868 Scott getting traped in quantum realm at the end of each movie in the trilogy was not gonna be interesting or clever tbh xD Im glad they got back, but Scott still wonders, was it really a win for them this time?
@@BluBearGaming DUUUUUDE... WHY SAYING THAT???!!! I KNOW PEOPLE WHO KNOW THE QUOTE BUT NEVER KNEW WHO SAID IT OR THE CONTEXT 😅😅😅 THAT'S A HUGE SPOILER...
@@philburton2223 Machete order made sense when Episode 1 was considered the worst one and fine to be left out, but I think that changed with the sequels :D
I feel like with paul and how he is always so type casted - that when you see him angry it adds a little extra. Like when he was telling kang not to touch his daughter - dude felt and seemed pretty pissed and I like it.
I like the detail that while all the Ant-Mans are just watching Giant-Man charge to see what happens or moving out of his way, the normal ice-cream guy is freaking the f* out that a dude just grew into a giant in front of him.
Went into this one with honestly very low expectations after hearing it bashed by critics. And after most of phase 4. So with those lowered expectations, I was actually able to have a lot of fun with this one. Def not better than first two ant man movies but I liked it better than I thought I would!
This is one of the MCU movies where I feel like it would be better if it was a comic. It helps that the fact that the writer of this movie wrote a lot of comics for Marvel and DC.
@@toshtao1 I actually met him in real life. He visited my college. He's a really good guy, humble, and extremely passionate about his work. It sucks to see people like you celebrate a good person losing a job when the fault wasn't even on him. It was the director that butchered his script.
26:00 i'd like to theorize that, when Sylvey killed He-Who-Remains, and everything went to shit, then Kang did become the founder of the TVA. Originally, there were these Space Lizards called Time-Keepers, and then Kang took over at the end of Loki. so Yeah, he's in charge now.
@@DanHosler He's most likely innocent. Everyone's just jumping the gun, saying "he's guilty", and dropping him from everything so they can cover their butts. If I was Majors and came out on the other side of all this INNOCENT of all charges AFTER your life and career have been ruined, I'd be coming after EVERYONE on my rise back to the top
By the way, the meaning behind the ending of this movie, is that Scott is having his own groundhog day. He's actually stuck reliving the same daily moments.
Next Up Ms. Marvel Season 1 , She-Hulk Attorney at Law, Werewolf by Night, Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday & Guardians of The Galaxy Volume 3 and then Secret Invasion
He’s apparently not doing all of those shows it would see, including Ms. Marvel. So he’s not ACTUALLY doing the full MCU like fans do. I mean huge channels like Blindwave and Reel Rejects liked them and loved them, for goodness sake.
@@chaotic7cam I’ve liked all of those shows, but I especially loved Werewolf by Night. I would be very bummed if Alex doesn’t react. Jack Russell is 100% one of my favorite new additions to the MCU.
Quantum realm is basically a shortcut to the multiverse... Or you can say the Bedrock of the Multiverse... If u wanna travel one universe to other, Quantum Realm is the best bet. That's why the Avengers used it in the Endgame to pick multiple infinity stones from different timelines as in Universes...
People say that Scott was locked up in a time cycle and that he didnt defeat kang the conqueror because the beginning of the movie was the same as the end of the movie
11:19 Ok. We need a Ghostbusters 1, 2, 3 reaction. How do you not know of Billy 36:20 You'd love the 3rd Paul is a main character 37:46 You'll be saying the same thing but "I need more Louis Tully"
@Alex Hefner's TV & Movie Vault, 12:15 Everyone and everything in the Multiverse is a variant of someone or something in a different universe. The MCU is Universe 616, and they refer to themselves as the Prime universe, which makes since from an audience point of view since we're seeing this story from their point of view. He Who Remains is the Kang that won; Kang at the end of his journey. The Kang we're seeing in this movie is one still early in his career, but one with numerous kills under his belt. What we learned from Loki's series is that every version of him was living out the same story because everyone has the same fixed story. This was shown to us via the various other versions of himself. They all told us about their nexus events and we all saw a version of them, not the way the explained them, but the way they played out for 616 Loki, still, we know exactly what they were talking about because we saw/heard about those moments while watching 616 Loki's journey. 616 Loki didn't get erased because he always did what he was supposed to do. Where he turned left, his variants went right, creating a nexus event. He Who Remains confirmed for us that everyone in the Multiverse is living the same story via his own story--he found his own variants because they were all doing the same thing at the exact same moment. He told us for a time that they shared their knowledge and technology with one another, and that he quickly learned that some versions of him where much more ambitious, thus dangerous--we saw this with Loki's variants. The only person who's truly different is Sylvie, as she was robbed of her story. She didn't create a nexus event. We don't yet know why she was removed from existence, but I suspect we'll find out this year when Loki season two drops. Was she He Who Remains trump card or was she the product of Miss Minutes' meddling that actually worked out in his favor? Sylvie broke the universe, and she's likely the one that has to fix it. She along with someone/something we're going to meet in the coming stories are likely the key to solving the multiverse issue. Kang, Nathaniel Richards is a man from the 31st Century. In the comics, he's a descendant of Reed Richards, the leader of the Fantastic Four. We don't know if that'll be the case in the MCU, but why wouldn't it be? Most everything else has stayed pretty true to the comics, though changes have been made--Star Lord's origin in the MCU is very different, for example. And we shouldn't forget about Hank Pym and Ultron either. In the comics, Kang wants to control time, and maybe that's true here too, but perhaps there is something important behind his desire to rule over it and to prune all branches trying to grow past a future date that he's been preventing up to the time Sylvie killed him. We saw the Eternals and what the Celestials wanted to do--Earth is on the chopping block! Did Kang do what he did to prevent that? The Eternals introduction, Celestials and Kang along with the Fantastic Four seem to be setting up Galactus! Is he the judgement we heard about in the Eternals? 15:49 Do you remember what happened to him? Scott messed up his suit, and his Pym particles went haywire, sending him to the Quantum Realm at different points in time--his body collapsed in on itself. I think the MCU found a very creative way to give us MODOK. 16:59 The Quantum Realm is why the Avengers were able to undo what Thanos had done. The Quantum Realm is the center of the Multiverse; it's everywhere and everywhen. It exists outside of time and space, which is where the Multiverse is. He Who Remains' castle was very likely in the Quantum Realm along with the TVA. They have to be right? How else would they be able to do what they do at any point in time without missing a beat? 18:41 YES!!!! 25:03 That's going to happen, but it won't be as bas as you think, because we know what his world looks like: one story; one possibility running in a loop for eternity for every universe, as it did before Sylvie broke it. He Who Remains doesn't want to kill everyone. He wants everyone living a very tightly scripted story, again and again and again, forever. The Multiverse ran in a loop, ending before the beginning of the 31st Century before rebooting because Kang was preventing his own existence. Every nexus point was pruned because every new event lead to a future with him in it. The War for time cannot be won so long as ANOTHER Kang lives. He who Remains made sure that he was the last one, the only one, and that's how he protected the Multiverse, by keeping himself out of it. A better solution is needed, but hasn't been found yet, but I guess that's what this phase is about. 29:04 Is he really big though? He's much smaller than he actually is--he's in the Quantum Realm remember? 38:33 I don't get the hate either, man. I think a lot of people built this movie up to be like Endgame, because of Kang's inclusion, and immediately felt let down when they realized that this is the beginning of Kang and not his end. Of course Ant-Man had to succeed--how else would we have gotten to the next chapter? I know some online are made because Kang was defeated by Ant-Man and I don't get that either because it wasn't just Ant-Man that brought him down. Kang's lieutenant along with Hank's super intelligent ants and the displaced people from the Quantum brought this Kang down. This Kang isn't even the worse one. He's just the guy building up to the real threat, and we haven't even met that version (variant) of him yet. The council of Kangs are bad news, but they too, are likely going to be insignificant when we meet the real threat. How do I know this? Well, the Council of Kangs weren't in Loki, were they? He Who Remains poked fun at what his variants where with the Time Keepers, which is what the Council of Kangs were when you really think about it. He Who Remains played them all. He Who Remains was bored, tired of winning. He had won, and he ruled over his winnings for a million lifetimes, remember? Nothing was a challenge for him. Sylvie did him a favor. He gets to do it all over again.
Yes, definitely watch the Star Wars movies, and watch them in release order...please! I don't think I'd want to go to a subatomic realm, if it meant I couldn't come back. At least not now, in my mid-50's. I might have chosen differently at a younger age. I also loved Neb. He's so cute! lol I'm sure it's been mentioned already, but that's Chevy Chase that you recognized. ;)
A lot of people are negative on marvel all of a sudden, because maybe one movie or one show let them down. But Guardians 3 did amazing, and a lot of people are still totally loving everything, Disney+ shows included. Ms Marvel was fantastic, I hope you watch it, and the upcoming The Marvels and Secret Invasion.
the only thing i really didn't enjoy was Love+Thunder. Most of it hasn't been PERFECT but it's brought a lot of cool new styles and characters to movies/shows that had been mostly formulaic before.
People are just overreacting for the most part and jumping on the hate bandwagon. Phase four is by far my favorite phase, and I absolutely adore all of the shows and most of the films in the past few years.
the order for star wars depends on how you are wanting to watch it.....are you wanting to watch them based upon the story line?.....if so, Episodes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, all in order as for the movies You could include the Clone Wars series in between episodes 2 and 3.....as, the end of the Clone Wars leads DIRECTLY into episode 3
As someone who heard a lot of negative things about it beforehand and enjoyed it regardless, it was nice to see someone go in with no expectations and enjoy it also
I feel like a big chunk of the recent MCU hate, comes from a certain group of people mad at Disney. I thought this movie was good. Wasn't a fan of what they did to Modok though. Felt like something Fox would do to a character.
Idk man, the Nazis made some pretty useful advancements with their utterly inhumane tests on people in camps. We still use some of them today iirc. It's a neat quote, but seems a bit too optimistic and utopian for my taste. Even Kang has made some incredible advancements. Like time travel and multiversal traversal. No other known people from his time can do that.
37:29 The ending post-credit scene made me so happy. I can't wait for season 2. 💞 11:22 It's Bill Murray. 🥰 17:01 The quantum realm exists as a parallel to our universe but like a lower layer of it. Think about it like the dermis of your body, the skin and your bones. They're part of one thing but they're also separated by layers of muscle, blood and trillions of cells. 20:35 Yes. 21:26 And that is multiverse theory. 🤷 25:43 For reference, Hank says that the ants are a class 2 civilization. Right now humanity is not even a class 1 civilization. 😮 31:58 I'd like to introduce you to a game series called Earth Defense Force. 😂
Janet being the hero, "Oh, you are killing people!" All of that sh!t, and Kang is over there like, "Oh, that doesn't matter." No BS, at the final part of the Multiversal Saga people will be routing for Kang, or saying that Kang is right, like as Kang said, and the other versions of his and those things, they will destroy the timelines, or the incusions will destroy the Universes and timelines anyway, so there is no real way to save the people that Janet mentions, because they are all going to die anyways, and so they would be left with, "it's either they die, or everyone dies," kind of situation, where sacrificing a few lives and universes means and ensures the survival of everyone else, or at least save as much as can be saved, because in this situation with Kang and the incursions and all that not everyone can be saved.
Scott’s book is actually something you can preorder now. It’ll hit shelves early September. My favorite funny moments were Scott’s audiobook, Quaz’s powers, “M.O.D.O.F.K.”, Veb running with the pack, and the Quantumnaut with the bridge code. Three things in particular that I liked about this film: 1.) Scott and Hope now have portable suits. 2.) No matter the situation, Scott’s driving force is his daughter Cassie. All of the possible Ant-Men including Baskin Robbins Scott formed an ant hill to help OG Scott fulfill his goal. 3.) The final fight between Scott/Ant-Man vs. Nathaniel/Kang gave us an idea of how dangerous one Kang can be. Now imagine a multitude… They didn’t say her codename, but Cassie in her suit is known as Stature. I feel like the citrus scene is a callback to Scott needing orange slices after getting a double whammer from Iron Man and War Machine. We didn’t get to see Scott’s friends in this movie, but Veb was portrayed by David Dastmalchian - the same actor who portrayed Kurt. Parts of this movie gave me Star Wars, Guardians, TRON: Legacy, and Avatar vibes all at once. The first post-credit scene showcases the Council of Kangs. The three variants that spoke in order of appearance were Rama-Tut, Centurion, and Immortus. There was one variant who teleported wearing a suit and tie. He’s known as Mr. Gryphon. This paves the way to Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. What I’m about to say is a rumor. I’d take it with a grain of salt, but in the event that they end up making a second season of Moon Knight they’ll consider making Rama-Tut the next main villain. As for the second post-credit scene, I don’t know if Victor Timely is a member of the council and I definitely don’t know if Mobius regained his memories or not, but for now I’ll take comfort knowing he and Loki are working together again. The adventure continues in Loki season 2, and you’ll be glad to know Marvel Studios finally unveiled that it’ll arrive for Friday, October 6. They also announced that Maya Lopez’ solo series Echo will premiere on Wednesday, November 29. All episodes are expected to drop that day. In the meantime, mark your calendar for Nick Fury’s solo series Secret Invasion. It’ll premiere on Wednesday, June 21st.
The quantom realm is underneath every universe. Every single universe is connected by the Quantom Realm... in the comics, there is an Over realm that connects all universes on the large scale also. Eternity lives in the over realm.
Overall, I really like this movie. It is as lighthearted as you say but I would have loved to have Scott and Hope stuck in the Quantum Realm instead and have Hank and Janet teach Cassie to be a better hero for a more bittersweet ending and make the movie feel like it has more stakes. I don’t think this Kang is dead (no body, no proof lol) so I would like to see him again. Both end credits scenes were super hype though
Actually, we don't even know if Scott and Hope pass through the right portal... we just went straight to Scott walking down the street, maybe that's just on his mind! At the end of the movie only says Kang will come back, nothing about Ant-man and the Wasp
Ant Man should have died. Or at least suffered a major defeat. What better way to build up a villain than to give us a lighthearted romp and then just mercilessly demolish it? Not that building up the villain matters much by now anyway...
Star Wars: Release Order is what most will say but I personally enjoy the story better with timeline, just include Solo/Rouge One and the Disney+ shows as well. It's a great ride.
If he watches the timeline order, he will not have the same surprises and plot twists we had watching the release order. Better watch the first time the order they were released.
Yeah this movie is another movie that isn’t as Terrible as people are making it out to be. It was very entertaining. Katheryn Newton did great as Cassie ( I know her from Supernatural, but she she also did fantastic here as well). Kang is one of the best villains in the MCU. Visuals were actually a little dim to me, but that’s just a personal opinion. Also, did you know that Scott’s book in the movie is being released as a real book now? I think that’s pretty cool. 😄 By the way, I can’t wait until you see Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. It was the best Marvel film I’ve seen ( aside from No Way Home, of course) in awhile. It’s everything you’d expect in a Guardian’s film but also hugely emotional.
I’ll keep it short… yes, watch Star Wars and watch it in release order. Nothing to do with this movie or Star Wars but, Alex, have you ever watched Avatar: The Last Airbender (animated series not movie)? I loved it as a kid and it is still one of my favorite series ever. It is quite long, but it’s So worth it. The writing, story, characters, fight scenes and soundtrack etc is incredible and the ending is truly breathtaking. A true masterpiece in my mind.
I just realized that Kang was saying in his hype speech, "Today, we conquer Eternity." Eternity was the name of the god at the center of the universe that grants wishes in Thor 4.
I know the controversy with the actor, but I really hope it works out so they do not recast Kang. I was semi intrigued in Loki, but this movie solidified the presence that Kang has. Particularly the first scene we see with him talking to Scott and Cassie in the prison. I'm excited to see him as the next big villain for Kang Dynasty
@@sensaiuriah5440 that’s not the only facet to the story man I suggest actually researching it. I’m not saying he’s guilty as we don’t know yet. But we can’t confirm that he’s innocent either.
@@sensaiuriah5440 while I agree with what yo said. Word is other women went straight to the DA to say the same thing. Which means they’re clearly not trying to get clout else they’d go to the tabloids.

@22.39 all the Scott's are working together like Ants. Alex you have to watch Brightburn. It's a different kind of superhero movie. Oh and Kingpin (it's a bowling movie with Bill Murray).
to explain the Kang/Loki stuff: the variant called He Who Remains (from the end of Loki) invented the TVA after the variant called Kang The Conqueror (the one we see in this movie) was banished to the Quantum Realm by the other variants within the Council of Kangs (the group from the post credits scene). The tech the TVA uses is the same tech Kang uses to manipulate time, but Kang's empire in the quantum realm isn't directly connected to the TVA. Hopefully that clears things up 👍🏻
I didn't see this in theaters because the initial reviews weren't very good and I was still feeling really disappointed by Thor Love and Thunder. However, I watched it as soon as it started streaming on Disney+ and it wasn't as bad as I had anticipated. It's not fantastic but it's definitely not the worst MCU movie I've ever seen. Enjoyed your reaction - as always!
Hey man I love your reactions so much! I heard you mentioning watching Ms. Marvel and was just wondering if the Ms. Marvel, She-Hulk, Werewolf by Night, and Guardians Holiday Special reaction would be on the channel, cause it seems you have skipped them. Keep up the great work.
I know he dropped the Guardians holiday special on patreon during Christmas so maybe an edited version to youtube hopefully soon and he just watched ms. Marvel on patreon so hopefully since he's caught up he'll drop the rest of those!
You really should watch Star Wars, I don’t know how people get to over the age of 20 without seeing it. Best way to watch is release order, in fact that is the ONLY way to watch if you’ve never seen them before.
Actually you need to see two MCU specials. "Werewolf by night" and "Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special" And you missed "She-Hulk" series (probably on purpose, but it has some great cameos) and "I am Groot" shorts (just for fun)
Thanks for this reaction. Important things to keep track of going forward in THE MULTIVERSE SAGA: 1. All Kangs are variants of 31st-century scientist Nathaniel Richards, descendent of 20th-century Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, the leader of the Fantastic Four. 2. In the 31st-century, Nathaniel Richards discovered (not invented) the Space-Time Platform of the most dangerous person ever to walk the earth, Victor Von Doom. We have seen this devise, or advanced versions of it, used repeatedly throughout THE MULTIVERSE SAGA: LOKI SE01, it is used by both the TVA and by He-Who-Remains. In DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS, Earth-838 Reed Richards enters the Illuminati Hall by means of it (confirmed by writer Michael Waldron as being Doom's invention). At the end of QUANTUMANIA, we see all Kang-variants using this device. Therefore, all of the Kangs owe their claim to fame to Doctor Doom. 4. It is very likely that Doom will discover that future descendent of his hated enemy, Reed Richards, is dominating the Multiverse by means of his greatest invention. This will be intolerable for Doom. He will probably discover this from the Loki-variant who is seeking a way to stop all the Kangs. Loki will discover the prime-Kang Nathaniel Richards and his 31st-century find of Doom time-travel tech, and will seek Doom out by means of the TVA. This is likely how Doom learns about the Kangs. 5. Upon learning about the Kangs and their transtemporal, Multiversal dynastic reign, Doom will spend all his thought into preparing to usurp their rule. The Kangs become his greatest priority. This explains Doom's absence during the Battle of NY, the Battle of Sokovia, the Battle for Earth on the Hudson Valley, NY, the Emergence of the Celestial Tiamut, and the secret invasion of the Skrulls. 6. In addition to being an almost unmatched scientific and technological genius, Doom is also a powerful and learned sorcerer, the greatest student of Cogliostro. His mother Cynthia was a witch. Therefore Doom knows well of the Darkhold and its prophecy regarding the Scarlet Witch. 7. To destroy the Dynasty of Kangs, Doom will use his Space-Time Platform to prevent Wanda Maximoff's suicide at Wundagor. 8. Doom will convince and use Wanda to obliterate every Kang in every universe as easily as she did to every Darkhold. 9. Dispatching the Kangs will trigger the Final Wave of Incursions annihilating the Multiverse. But Doom, Strange, and Wanda create Battleworld from salvaged pieces of dead universes, and Doom becomes God for AVENGERS SECRET WARS. Probably.
Looks like you’re skipping the Marvel shows. Your next movie is Guardians 3. You should watch the Guardians Holiday Special before that. Then the movie after that would be the Marvels, but you should get to Ms. Marvel before that. She-Hulk you could get to before Captain America 4 Werewolf by Night is not yet connected to anything, but it’s a great watch. Its like a Marvel mini-movie paying tribute to those classic black & white Universal monster movies
TVA Kang "He who Remains" is the one who exiled all the other Kangs to the quantumverse, theyre job was just to do He who Remains timeline bidding, but this Kang i believe is the most polar for unknown reasons atm.
I think the biggest complaint, at least for me, is how it ends. It feels like it goes from "Now Scott and Hope are stranded in the Quantum Realm, maybe we can explore this in future movies?" to "Whelp, everyone's out and everyone's fine, and they all lived happily ever after, hooray!" Just feels very narratively unsatisfying, in that regard. Elsewise, with maybe the exception of Darren/Modok, everything about this movie was enjoyable.
it was pretty underwhelming imo and couldve been done so much better, the moment I finished it I could only think about how mid it was. and cassie was annoying asf
@Keegan Plays I absolutely adore the ending of this film, and I love how it goes full circle with the "Welcome Back" song. I also love the inner monologue at the end that creates a sense of impending doom.
@@daltonmeadesmith I never said I hated that part; in fact, I thought it was hilarious, especially with his shift from "are we about to die?" to "NAH, everything's fine" What I dislike is how we got there, with, as I said in my first post, an "Everything just kinda worked out, don't worry about it" ending from the Quantum Realm side of things.
In the original storyline, Scott and Hope was supposed to get stuck in the quantum realm. Thats why it feels anticlimactic in the end when the portal closes and then opens up again 10 seconds later.
Alex wtf there’s no way you’re caught up now:( I’m happy you get to enjoy this journey with us now hope you still wait to do these reactions instead of going to the theater:)
My favorite thing about kang is how they edited his hits. Thanos was more impactful but kangs hits so much worse and as a "human" it makes it that much scarier
Ya know, not for nothin but technically, the entire aakewniverse is marvel cannon.. soo... Eventually we should get a Jay and Silent Bob strike back reaction right?
Nope he’s skipping them because of a dumb poll, and despite all the hundreds of comments begging him to watch like most huge reaction channels do. 😊 So he’s not actually watching the entire MCU.
Jonathan Majors carried this movie on his back. I can't see another actor delivering a performance like that. So goddamn talented. Hope he can continue in this role.
Its the details that slide by that show the depth of Kang in this movie. Simple things, simple phrases that get taken way out of context yet mean so much more. "Me, a lot of me." Not a reference to himself,but to his varients. If this Kang is ruthless, then a lot of him is a lot more ruthless. Killing trillions "As if that mattered." When the universe is gone..we all are. 1 timeline as He Who Remains had finished crafting. Means all other timelines have been burned away. Not killed, just never existed. Think about possibility for a second; each and every timeline Kang has already burned, each time he has had to kill Avengers/Heros/Villains. But not once did he care enough to learn their names. This Kang wants to win. And he will. Always.
Why are you skipping things?? You've skipped Ms Marvel, She-Hulk, Werewolf by Night and GOTG Holiday special. No matter your opinion on the quality of these they are still part of the main MCU and are required viewing to understand what is going on in future shows, films and special presentations.
Right?? He’s skipping them because of a dumb poll, and despite all the hundreds of comments begging him to watch like most huge reaction channels do. 😊 So he’s not actually watching the entire MCU.

Feels really weird seeing you catching up with all of us where it wasn't long ago watching you reacting to the first IRON MAN movie! Absolutely love your reactions.
Also really hope you'll watch *Man of Steel* soon!
Did he skip werewolf by night and she hulk
(i know everyones gonna try and shid on she hulk but that shows still important for some stuff)
@@joshbrosh6626 yes he did. And I am not sure if he will watch it
It really does... Man how long have we come?
Would love if he watched Werewolf By Night, easily one of my favourite things to come out of Marvel in recent years
@@joshbrosh6626 She Hulk rules I hope he gives it a chance
What this movie lacks is LUIS, man. His storytelling was totally necessary here.
EDIT: Dude, haven't you seen "Groundhog Day", "Ghostbusters", "Zombieland"??? That's Bill Mohterf*cking Murray!! 🤣🤣🤣
I was really looking forward to Luis's recap of the snap and the un-snap.
I WANTED HIM TO RECAP PHASE 4 MAN
If he had recapped the entire movie at the end people would have walked out happy.
😂😂
Stripes, Caddyshack, Lost in Translation, Quick Change, Saturday Night Live???
Can we see X-Men next week to continue the MCU? 👀 Please, Alex, it’s so much fun to continue Marvel Monday’s!
This!
Agreed X-men is required watching
yes!
He shld watch Logan too
x-men isn’t the mcu but yes
Kang's real name is Nathaniel Richards and he is the descendant of Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four. The thing is he invented time travelling and eventually changed his name to Kang. As a time traveller, he met thousands of his variants and most of them eventually being end up like him 'KANG'....
I always thought he was Reed Richard's son.
@@NewYorkFloridaManReed does have a son but it definitely isn’t Kang 😂

People say that Kang in Quantumania was underwhelming, and I could see that the first part, but in reality Kang is weakened in this film. A lot of people don't really understand that. Kang is weakened because he is in the Quantumn Realm. Now, if Kang was outside of the Quantumn Realm and had access to time, then Kang would have been more capable and more powerful like traveling through time, manipulating time, and summoning any weapon from any point in time just like in the comics.
And I liked how they did this because it proves that a weak Kang, or even the weakest Kang, can be a big threat, like how Kang conquered the Quantumn Realm, like a whole dimension basically, a weakened Kang conquered a whole dimension. It just goes to show the capability of Kang, and I hope that they can expand on this Kang stuff like every Kang after the one in Quantumania will be stronger and stronger just showing the danger of Kang as a whole.
exactly, Kang was weak here bcz of the Realm, it's almost as if his variants sent him there bcz he is weak there
@theamazingspooderman2697 It literally says in the movie that Kang was exiled to the Quantum Realm because it was a place outside of space and time, so it was the only place that could hold him. Not only that, but when Janet sabotaged Kang's multiversal engine core, she plainly said that she "cut him off from time." So Kang cannot access time, so Kang is nowhere near as powerful as he would be with the power of time literally being on his side. Do you see what I am saying?
At this point, it feels like people straight up didn’t even pay attention when it was explained that he was weakened. Because it was made very clear that Kang was at his weak point and the reason why it was so important to keep Kang in the quantum realm is because of he had access to space and time, he would be a billion times more powerful than he is in the quantum realm. The movie had it’s problems, but Kang carried the movie.
Petition to get Marvel to keep him for future projects. SAVE DOCTOR DOOM FOR MUUUUUUUCH LATER!
Even the weakest kang can abuse his girl!
17:19 -- that WAS the purpose of the TVA. Kang is a genius inventor from the far future, and Kang we met at the end of Loki won the multiverse war he started with the other versions of himself. And he was in control of the sacred timeline and created the TVA, and trimmed any chances of the multiverse coming back. Once that Kang was killed by Sylvie, it was the wild west again, no more clipping branches. So all the other Kangs can rise up again to fight for control. The Kang in this movie is Kang the Conqueror. Possibly the most violent one (or maybe not, there's still alot of MCU to be written) Phase 5 and 6 are gonna be wild.
All hail the Sacred Timeline!!
They may be changing the whole villain now. After the whole incident with Johnathan Majors, they may have put themselves in a story telling dilemma, by letting him go. Either they find another actor, or go straight into Doctor Doom, which personally I'd be more hype for.
@@desariocannon5222 it would be pretty awkward if they wrap up Loki and Quantumania off camera with "oh cool, we beat kang!" -- its much easier to have his variants start to look like John David Washington on John Boyega. They've recast characters in the MCU plenty of times.
@@tomkvideo With No Way Home and Loki, they have at least a grounds for the same "character" being different baseline people. Use some of that footage from the end credits of Quantumania, squeeze in the newer actor into it, and now we have a new actor playing Kang.
@@AnotherViewer I always thought it would have been cool to have Kang variants more like the Loki ones.. For instance a female Kang or an older Kang played by someone like Denzel Washington. That's a good way to show how dangerous he can be while changing it up a bit.
"what's coming"
"me"
"a lot of me"
5:04 "Everything's getting sucked!" Cue Piper Peri meme. I blew pop out my nose when you dropped that one, Alex! Great reaction, and I am looking forward to more with Kang!
And YES, WATCH STAR WARS!!!! Watch them in order of release (4,5,6,1,2,3,Rogue 1, Han Solo,7,8,9). Anything else will be too confusing or spoil things.
WHAT??? if you watch release order you get truly spoiled...
I thought the end fight between Scott and Kang was so awesomely brutal that I was legit scared for Scott's life and then it was kind of a let down when Hope just came back through and saved his life. And then even more of a let down when they just reopened the portal from the other side. Seems lazy and dropped the stakes that were built up.
This was probably the re shoot they did. The original probably had them both trapped after barely winning against Kang.
@@pikachuspartan1868 Scott getting traped in quantum realm at the end of each movie in the trilogy was not gonna be interesting or clever tbh xD Im glad they got back, but Scott still wonders, was it really a win for them this time?
Scott was trapped in Quantum Realm in the last movie, give that guy a rest
If you're going to watch Star Wars for the first time, the best way to watch it is in release order. LOVE your reactions man!

I agree. Absolutely release order. I watched someone do Machete order & I was so annoyed 🤬
@@philburton2223 Machete order made sense when Episode 1 was considered the worst one and fine to be left out, but I think that changed with the sequels :D
I feel like with paul and how he is always so type casted - that when you see him angry it adds a little extra. Like when he was telling kang not to touch his daughter - dude felt and seemed pretty pissed and I like it.
The whole ending of the movie felt like such a false sense of security
And the way i shrieked when i saw Loki at the end
I like the detail that while all the Ant-Mans are just watching Giant-Man charge to see what happens or moving out of his way, the normal ice-cream guy is freaking the f* out that a dude just grew into a giant in front of him.
Went into this one with honestly very low expectations after hearing it bashed by critics. And after most of phase 4. So with those lowered expectations, I was actually able to have a lot of fun with this one. Def not better than first two ant man movies but I liked it better than I thought I would!
This is one of the MCU movies where I feel like it would be better if it was a comic. It helps that the fact that the writer of this movie wrote a lot of comics for Marvel and DC.
That's an interesting thought
The WHOLE point of all of this is to bring the comics out for everyone to see. WTF are you even talking about?
@@Saje3D I'm just saying that the director couldn't keep up with the concepts in this movie, and it would've made for a better comic.
They just fired the writer for this movie. LOL! Good riddance!
@@toshtao1 I actually met him in real life. He visited my college. He's a really good guy, humble, and extremely passionate about his work.
It sucks to see people like you celebrate a good person losing a job when the fault wasn't even on him. It was the director that butchered his script.
26:00 i'd like to theorize that, when Sylvey killed He-Who-Remains, and everything went to shit, then Kang did become the founder of the TVA. Originally, there were these Space Lizards called Time-Keepers, and then Kang took over at the end of Loki. so Yeah, he's in charge now.
Well considering this may or may not be one of Jonathan Majors’ last features as Kang he did a good job.
he's in loki season 2

By the way, the meaning behind the ending of this movie, is that Scott is having his own groundhog day. He's actually stuck reliving the same daily moments.
Kang was really cool sucks he got fired wonder how they’re gonna explain how he just disappeared in verse

He’s apparently not doing all of those shows it would see, including Ms. Marvel. So he’s not ACTUALLY doing the full MCU like fans do. I mean huge channels like Blindwave and Reel Rejects liked them and loved them, for goodness sake.

17:10 "Where is the Quantumrealm?"
Well, basically everywhere. It is a world within our world, smaller than most Atoms.
Quantum realm is basically a shortcut to the multiverse... Or you can say the Bedrock of the Multiverse... If u wanna travel one universe to other, Quantum Realm is the best bet. That's why the Avengers used it in the Endgame to pick multiple infinity stones from different timelines as in Universes...
People say that Scott was locked up in a time cycle and that he didnt defeat kang the conqueror because the beginning of the movie was the same as the end of the movie
If you’re gonna watch the MCU, then damn it, you gotta watch (& post) the Specials.

@Alex Hefner's TV & Movie Vault,
12:15 Everyone and everything in the Multiverse is a variant of someone or something in a different universe. The MCU is Universe 616, and they refer to themselves as the Prime universe, which makes since from an audience point of view since we're seeing this story from their point of view.
He Who Remains is the Kang that won; Kang at the end of his journey. The Kang we're seeing in this movie is one still early in his career, but one with numerous kills under his belt.
What we learned from Loki's series is that every version of him was living out the same story because everyone has the same fixed story. This was shown to us via the various other versions of himself. They all told us about their nexus events and we all saw a version of them, not the way the explained them, but the way they played out for 616 Loki, still, we know exactly what they were talking about because we saw/heard about those moments while watching 616 Loki's journey. 616 Loki didn't get erased because he always did what he was supposed to do. Where he turned left, his variants went right, creating a nexus event.
He Who Remains confirmed for us that everyone in the Multiverse is living the same story via his own story--he found his own variants because they were all doing the same thing at the exact same moment. He told us for a time that they shared their knowledge and technology with one another, and that he quickly learned that some versions of him where much more ambitious, thus dangerous--we saw this with Loki's variants. The only person who's truly different is Sylvie, as she was robbed of her story. She didn't create a nexus event. We don't yet know why she was removed from existence, but I suspect we'll find out this year when Loki season two drops. Was she He Who Remains trump card or was she the product of Miss Minutes' meddling that actually worked out in his favor?
Sylvie broke the universe, and she's likely the one that has to fix it. She along with someone/something we're going to meet in the coming stories are likely the key to solving the multiverse issue.
Kang, Nathaniel Richards is a man from the 31st Century. In the comics, he's a descendant of Reed Richards, the leader of the Fantastic Four. We don't know if that'll be the case in the MCU, but why wouldn't it be? Most everything else has stayed pretty true to the comics, though changes have been made--Star Lord's origin in the MCU is very different, for example. And we shouldn't forget about Hank Pym and Ultron either. In the comics, Kang wants to control time, and maybe that's true here too, but perhaps there is something important behind his desire to rule over it and to prune all branches trying to grow past a future date that he's been preventing up to the time Sylvie killed him. We saw the Eternals and what the Celestials wanted to do--Earth is on the chopping block! Did Kang do what he did to prevent that? The Eternals introduction, Celestials and Kang along with the Fantastic Four seem to be setting up Galactus! Is he the judgement we heard about in the Eternals?
15:49 Do you remember what happened to him? Scott messed up his suit, and his Pym particles went haywire, sending him to the Quantum Realm at different points in time--his body collapsed in on itself. I think the MCU found a very creative way to give us MODOK.
16:59 The Quantum Realm is why the Avengers were able to undo what Thanos had done. The Quantum Realm is the center of the Multiverse; it's everywhere and everywhen. It exists outside of time and space, which is where the Multiverse is. He Who Remains' castle was very likely in the Quantum Realm along with the TVA. They have to be right? How else would they be able to do what they do at any point in time without missing a beat?
18:41 YES!!!!
25:03 That's going to happen, but it won't be as bas as you think, because we know what his world looks like: one story; one possibility running in a loop for eternity for every universe, as it did before Sylvie broke it. He Who Remains doesn't want to kill everyone. He wants everyone living a very tightly scripted story, again and again and again, forever. The Multiverse ran in a loop, ending before the beginning of the 31st Century before rebooting because Kang was preventing his own existence. Every nexus point was pruned because every new event lead to a future with him in it. The War for time cannot be won so long as ANOTHER Kang lives. He who Remains made sure that he was the last one, the only one, and that's how he protected the Multiverse, by keeping himself out of it. A better solution is needed, but hasn't been found yet, but I guess that's what this phase is about.
29:04 Is he really big though? He's much smaller than he actually is--he's in the Quantum Realm remember?
38:33 I don't get the hate either, man. I think a lot of people built this movie up to be like Endgame, because of Kang's inclusion, and immediately felt let down when they realized that this is the beginning of Kang and not his end. Of course Ant-Man had to succeed--how else would we have gotten to the next chapter? I know some online are made because Kang was defeated by Ant-Man and I don't get that either because it wasn't just Ant-Man that brought him down. Kang's lieutenant along with Hank's super intelligent ants and the displaced people from the Quantum brought this Kang down. This Kang isn't even the worse one. He's just the guy building up to the real threat, and we haven't even met that version (variant) of him yet. The council of Kangs are bad news, but they too, are likely going to be insignificant when we meet the real threat. How do I know this? Well, the Council of Kangs weren't in Loki, were they? He Who Remains poked fun at what his variants where with the Time Keepers, which is what the Council of Kangs were when you really think about it. He Who Remains played them all.
He Who Remains was bored, tired of winning. He had won, and he ruled over his winnings for a million lifetimes, remember? Nothing was a challenge for him. Sylvie did him a favor. He gets to do it all over again.

A lot of people are negative on marvel all of a sudden, because maybe one movie or one show let them down. But Guardians 3 did amazing, and a lot of people are still totally loving everything, Disney+ shows included. Ms Marvel was fantastic, I hope you watch it, and the upcoming The Marvels and Secret Invasion.
the only thing i really didn't enjoy was Love+Thunder. Most of it hasn't been PERFECT but it's brought a lot of cool new styles and characters to movies/shows that had been mostly formulaic before.
People are just overreacting for the most part and jumping on the hate bandwagon. Phase four is by far my favorite phase, and I absolutely adore all of the shows and most of the films in the past few years.
the order for star wars depends on how you are wanting to watch it.....are you wanting to watch them based upon the story line?.....if so, Episodes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, all in order as for the movies
You could include the Clone Wars series in between episodes 2 and 3.....as, the end of the Clone Wars leads DIRECTLY into episode 3
As someone who heard a lot of negative things about it beforehand and enjoyed it regardless, it was nice to see someone go in with no expectations and enjoy it also

I feel like a big chunk of the recent MCU hate, comes from a certain group of people mad at Disney. I thought this movie was good. Wasn't a fan of what they did to Modok though. Felt like something Fox would do to a character.
The science of the Ant-Man series shatters my brain.

Idk man, the Nazis made some pretty useful advancements with their utterly inhumane tests on people in camps. We still use some of them today iirc.
It's a neat quote, but seems a bit too optimistic and utopian for my taste. Even Kang has made some incredible advancements. Like time travel and multiversal traversal. No other known people from his time can do that.
Ants are actually pretty smart, especially for an insect, they can build boats, have wars, create efficient ant farms, and even have livestock!

The quantum realm exists as a parallel to our universe but like a lower layer of it. Think about it like the dermis of your body, the skin and your bones. They're part of one thing but they're also separated by layers of muscle, blood and trillions of cells.

I'd like to introduce you to a game series called Earth Defense Force. 😂
Janet being the hero, "Oh, you are killing people!" All of that sh!t, and Kang is over there like, "Oh, that doesn't matter."
No BS, at the final part of the Multiversal Saga people will be routing for Kang, or saying that Kang is right, like as Kang said, and the other versions of his and those things, they will destroy the timelines, or the incusions will destroy the Universes and timelines anyway, so there is no real way to save the people that Janet mentions, because they are all going to die anyways, and so they would be left with, "it's either they die, or everyone dies," kind of situation, where sacrificing a few lives and universes means and ensures the survival of everyone else, or at least save as much as can be saved, because in this situation with Kang and the incursions and all that not everyone can be saved.
It's exactly 1 year of iron man reaction video. Its been a whole year. Want to watch more mcu, dceu, x men, fantastic four reactions of yours. ❤
Loki season 2 is coming out soon and is supposed to pick up where this left off - that's gonna be so good, can't wait!
Scott’s book is actually something you can preorder now. It’ll hit shelves early September.
My favorite funny moments were Scott’s audiobook, Quaz’s powers, “M.O.D.O.F.K.”, Veb running with the pack, and the Quantumnaut with the bridge code.
Three things in particular that I liked about this film:
1.) Scott and Hope now have portable suits.
2.) No matter the situation, Scott’s driving force is his daughter Cassie. All of the possible Ant-Men including Baskin Robbins Scott formed an ant hill to help OG Scott fulfill his goal.
3.) The final fight between Scott/Ant-Man vs. Nathaniel/Kang gave us an idea of how dangerous one Kang can be. Now imagine a multitude…
They didn’t say her codename, but Cassie in her suit is known as Stature. I feel like the citrus scene is a callback to Scott needing orange slices after getting a double whammer from Iron Man and War Machine.
We didn’t get to see Scott’s friends in this movie, but Veb was portrayed by David Dastmalchian - the same actor who portrayed Kurt.
Parts of this movie gave me Star Wars, Guardians, TRON: Legacy, and Avatar vibes all at once.
The first post-credit scene showcases the Council of Kangs. The three variants that spoke in order of appearance were Rama-Tut, Centurion, and Immortus.
There was one variant who teleported wearing a suit and tie. He’s known as Mr. Gryphon.
This paves the way to Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.
What I’m about to say is a rumor. I’d take it with a grain of salt, but in the event that they end up making a second season of Moon Knight they’ll consider making Rama-Tut the next main villain.
As for the second post-credit scene, I don’t know if Victor Timely is a member of the council and I definitely don’t know if Mobius regained his memories or not, but for now I’ll take comfort knowing he and Loki are working together again.
The adventure continues in Loki season 2, and you’ll be glad to know Marvel Studios finally unveiled that it’ll arrive for Friday, October 6.
They also announced that Maya Lopez’ solo series Echo will premiere on Wednesday, November 29. All episodes are expected to drop that day.
In the meantime, mark your calendar for Nick Fury’s solo series Secret Invasion. It’ll premiere on Wednesday, June 21st.
Love me a good, THOROUGH, read… come THRU! 👏🏽
The quantom realm is underneath every universe. Every single universe is connected by the Quantom Realm... in the comics, there is an Over realm that connects all universes on the large scale also. Eternity lives in the over realm.
Overall, I really like this movie. It is as lighthearted as you say but I would have loved to have Scott and Hope stuck in the Quantum Realm instead and have Hank and Janet teach Cassie to be a better hero for a more bittersweet ending and make the movie feel like it has more stakes. I don’t think this Kang is dead (no body, no proof lol) so I would like to see him again. Both end credits scenes were super hype though
Actually, we don't even know if Scott and Hope pass through the right portal... we just went straight to Scott walking down the street, maybe that's just on his mind! At the end of the movie only says Kang will come back, nothing about Ant-man and the Wasp
Ant Man should have died. Or at least suffered a major defeat. What better way to build up a villain than to give us a lighthearted romp and then just mercilessly demolish it? Not that building up the villain matters much by now anyway...
That old man was Bill Murray - Ghost Busters (1 and 2), Ground Hog day, What About Bob, Stripes, Caddy Shack, Scrooged...and other stuff.
Star Wars: Release Order is what most will say but I personally enjoy the story better with timeline, just include Solo/Rouge One and the Disney+ shows as well. It's a great ride.
First time watch release order always. After that, yes, timeline is great.
Yes!! Release order!!! They made them in that order for a reason! ❤❤❤
@@cruzuvalle9845 George Lucas himself said that timeline is better way to watch it...
If he watches the timeline order, he will not have the same surprises and plot twists we had watching the release order. Better watch the first time the order they were released.
I would watch 1-6 in order and the TV shows at least but Solo or Rogue One whenever.
For a while, I wondered why Janet was older while Scott didn't age, only to then understand that Scott was in a time vortex when 5 years = 5 hours.
Yeah this movie is another movie that isn’t as Terrible as people are making it out to be. It was very entertaining. Katheryn Newton did great as Cassie ( I know her from Supernatural, but she she also did fantastic here as well). Kang is one of the best villains in the MCU. Visuals were actually a little dim to me, but that’s just a personal opinion. Also, did you know that Scott’s book in the movie is being released as a real book now? I think that’s pretty cool. 😄
By the way, I can’t wait until you see Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. It was the best Marvel film I’ve seen ( aside from No Way Home, of course) in awhile. It’s everything you’d expect in a Guardian’s film but also hugely emotional.
30:30 who’s gonna tell him about Dr dooms casting..
I’ll keep it short… yes, watch Star Wars and watch it in release order.
Nothing to do with this movie or Star Wars but, Alex, have you ever watched Avatar: The Last Airbender (animated series not movie)? I loved it as a kid and it is still one of my favorite series ever. It is quite long, but it’s So worth it. The writing, story, characters, fight scenes and soundtrack etc is incredible and the ending is truly breathtaking. A true masterpiece in my mind.
I just realized that Kang was saying in his hype speech, "Today, we conquer Eternity." Eternity was the name of the god at the center of the universe that grants wishes in Thor 4.
I know the controversy with the actor, but I really hope it works out so they do not recast Kang. I was semi intrigued in Loki, but this movie solidified the presence that Kang has. Particularly the first scene we see with him talking to Scott and Cassie in the prison. I'm excited to see him as the next big villain for Kang Dynasty
He’s getting recasted 10000%
Yea now it's guilty till proven innocent even after he provided evidence or him being innocent.
@@sensaiuriah5440 that’s not the only facet to the story man I suggest actually researching it. I’m not saying he’s guilty as we don’t know yet. But we can’t confirm that he’s innocent either.
@@sensaiuriah5440 while I agree with what yo said. Word is other women went straight to the DA to say the same thing. Which means they’re clearly not trying to get clout else they’d go to the tabloids.
@@sensaiuriah5440 girl was paryting with the alleged injured parts of her body and then changed her story when they caught her on camera having the time of her life. But since its an interracial case, they not gonna side with him no matter what evidence he has lol
Are you gonna do Ms. Marvel, She-Hulk, Werewolf By Night & The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special?
The best way to watch Star Wars is the release order.
Should watch the prequels before 6
This is the Way
@@tragedywaiting6957 This is not the Way.
@22.39 all the Scott's are working together like Ants.
Alex you have to watch Brightburn. It's a different kind of superhero movie.
Oh and Kingpin (it's a bowling movie with Bill Murray).
Please post Werewolf By Night!
to explain the Kang/Loki stuff: the variant called He Who Remains (from the end of Loki) invented the TVA after the variant called Kang The Conqueror (the one we see in this movie) was banished to the Quantum Realm by the other variants within the Council of Kangs (the group from the post credits scene). The tech the TVA uses is the same tech Kang uses to manipulate time, but Kang's empire in the quantum realm isn't directly connected to the TVA. Hopefully that clears things up 👍🏻
I didn't see this in theaters because the initial reviews weren't very good and I was still feeling really disappointed by Thor Love and Thunder. However, I watched it as soon as it started streaming on Disney+ and it wasn't as bad as I had anticipated. It's not fantastic but it's definitely not the worst MCU movie I've ever seen. Enjoyed your reaction - as always!
32:27 met twice, tried to kill him in daughters bedroom, and yet he’s always been like a brother to him 🥺 so inspiring
Hey man I love your reactions so much! I heard you mentioning watching Ms. Marvel and was just wondering if the Ms. Marvel, She-Hulk, Werewolf by Night, and Guardians Holiday Special reaction would be on the channel, cause it seems you have skipped them. Keep up the great work.
I know he dropped the Guardians holiday special on patreon during Christmas so maybe an edited version to youtube hopefully soon and he just watched ms. Marvel on patreon so hopefully since he's caught up he'll drop the rest of those!
@@ZachRenko good. I'm glad he's not skipping. It's a really good series
11:22 he's look familiar because is Bill legend Murray better know for Ghostbusters, maybe you've seen him in Zombieland where he plays himself 😂
I really like this film, Kang is so damn scary to me
You really should watch Star Wars, I don’t know how people get to over the age of 20 without seeing it.
Best way to watch is release order, in fact that is the ONLY way to watch if you’ve never seen them before.
When is Harry Potter ? 🤍
It looks like he’s doing them every other Friday
My brain went to that why is gamorra scene, anyways I got what yot acually ment reading it the second time😅
Why is nobody asking how is Harry Potter 😢
@Jakub Port why os Harry Potter
Actually you need to see two MCU specials. "Werewolf by night" and "Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special"
And you missed "She-Hulk" series (probably on purpose, but it has some great cameos) and "I am Groot" shorts (just for fun)
Thanks for this reaction.
Important things to keep track of going forward in THE MULTIVERSE SAGA:
1. All Kangs are variants of 31st-century scientist Nathaniel Richards, descendent of 20th-century Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, the leader of the Fantastic Four.
2. In the 31st-century, Nathaniel Richards discovered (not invented) the Space-Time Platform of the most dangerous person ever to walk the earth, Victor Von Doom. We have seen this devise, or advanced versions of it, used repeatedly throughout THE MULTIVERSE SAGA: LOKI SE01, it is used by both the TVA and by He-Who-Remains. In DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS, Earth-838 Reed Richards enters the Illuminati Hall by means of it (confirmed by writer Michael Waldron as being Doom's invention). At the end of QUANTUMANIA, we see all Kang-variants using this device. Therefore, all of the Kangs owe their claim to fame to Doctor Doom.
4. It is very likely that Doom will discover that future descendent of his hated enemy, Reed Richards, is dominating the Multiverse by means of his greatest invention. This will be intolerable for Doom. He will probably discover this from the Loki-variant who is seeking a way to stop all the Kangs. Loki will discover the prime-Kang Nathaniel Richards and his 31st-century find of Doom time-travel tech, and will seek Doom out by means of the TVA. This is likely how Doom learns about the Kangs.
5. Upon learning about the Kangs and their transtemporal, Multiversal dynastic reign, Doom will spend all his thought into preparing to usurp their rule. The Kangs become his greatest priority. This explains Doom's absence during the Battle of NY, the Battle of Sokovia, the Battle for Earth on the Hudson Valley, NY, the Emergence of the Celestial Tiamut, and the secret invasion of the Skrulls.
6. In addition to being an almost unmatched scientific and technological genius, Doom is also a powerful and learned sorcerer, the greatest student of Cogliostro. His mother Cynthia was a witch. Therefore Doom knows well of the Darkhold and its prophecy regarding the Scarlet Witch.
7. To destroy the Dynasty of Kangs, Doom will use his Space-Time Platform to prevent Wanda Maximoff's suicide at Wundagor.
8. Doom will convince and use Wanda to obliterate every Kang in every universe as easily as she did to every Darkhold.
9. Dispatching the Kangs will trigger the Final Wave of Incursions annihilating the Multiverse. But Doom, Strange, and Wanda create Battleworld from salvaged pieces of dead universes, and Doom becomes God for AVENGERS SECRET WARS.
Probably.
Looks like you’re skipping the Marvel shows. Your next movie is Guardians 3. You should watch the Guardians Holiday Special before that.
Then the movie after that would be the Marvels, but you should get to Ms. Marvel before that.
She-Hulk you could get to before Captain America 4
Werewolf by Night is not yet connected to anything, but it’s a great watch. Its like a Marvel mini-movie paying tribute to those classic black & white Universal monster movies
It's worth noting, because many people get confused, that Kang and He who remains aren't the same variant.
Definitely should watch star wars. Release order is the way to go.
Should watch the prequels before 6
TVA Kang "He who Remains" is the one who exiled all the other Kangs to the quantumverse, theyre job was just to do He who Remains timeline bidding, but this Kang i believe is the most polar for unknown reasons atm.
Love your reactions, but I feel like I should skip this one since Ms. Marvel was skipped...
Right? Not even actually doing the MCU journey if you skip. After Harry Potter reactions finish up I might be done unless he changes his mind.
Kang is the 4th avengers level threat
Idk why people didn't like thid movie. It finally gave me all the answers about Kang I wanted.
I am actually really excited about the arc.
I think the biggest complaint, at least for me, is how it ends.
It feels like it goes from "Now Scott and Hope are stranded in the Quantum Realm, maybe we can explore this in future movies?" to "Whelp, everyone's out and everyone's fine, and they all lived happily ever after, hooray!"
Just feels very narratively unsatisfying, in that regard. Elsewise, with maybe the exception of Darren/Modok, everything about this movie was enjoyable.
it was pretty underwhelming imo and couldve been done so much better, the moment I finished it I could only think about how mid it was. and cassie was annoying asf
@Keegan Plays I absolutely adore the ending of this film, and I love how it goes full circle with the "Welcome Back" song. I also love the inner monologue at the end that creates a sense of impending doom.
@@daltonmeadesmithone with a different actor
@@daltonmeadesmith I never said I hated that part; in fact, I thought it was hilarious, especially with his shift from "are we about to die?" to "NAH, everything's fine"
What I dislike is how we got there, with, as I said in my first post, an "Everything just kinda worked out, don't worry about it" ending from the Quantum Realm side of things.
Alex back with another banger. This dude is the best RUclipsr.
Alex I'd love to see you react to She-Hulk, its actually hilarious!
Especially since he watched Deredevil
In the original storyline, Scott and Hope was supposed to get stuck in the quantum realm. Thats why it feels anticlimactic in the end when the portal closes and then opens up again 10 seconds later.
holy shit.. he catched up
Except he didn’t.
Not really.
Alex wtf there’s no way you’re caught up now:( I’m happy you get to enjoy this journey with us now hope you still wait to do these reactions instead of going to the theater:)
The only way to watch Star Wars is 4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3, Rouge One, Han Solo, 7, 8, 9 (For live action). If any one else says different, their wrong.
My favorite thing about kang is how they edited his hits. Thanos was more impactful but kangs hits so much worse and as a "human" it makes it that much scarier
You gonna watch she hulk?
Please no
Ya know, not for nothin but technically, the entire aakewniverse is marvel cannon.. soo... Eventually we should get a Jay and Silent Bob strike back reaction right?
Did you skip she-hulk and both spesial presentations? Or they coming?😊
Nope he’s skipping them because of a dumb poll, and despite all the hundreds of comments begging him to watch like most huge reaction channels do. 😊 So he’s not actually watching the entire MCU.
@@chaotic7cam wait really! But the holiday spesial at least has plotpoints for gotg3, that sucks
This^
The original alternate ending was Kang escaping through the portal and Hope and Scott getting stuck in the Quantum Realm
Jonathan Majors carried this movie on his back. I can't see another actor delivering a performance like that. So goddamn talented. Hope he can continue in this role.
Its the details that slide by that show the depth of Kang in this movie. Simple things, simple phrases that get taken way out of context yet mean so much more.
"Me, a lot of me."
Not a reference to himself,but to his varients.
If this Kang is ruthless, then a lot of him is a lot more ruthless.
Killing trillions "As if that mattered."
When the universe is gone..we all are. 1 timeline as He Who Remains had finished crafting. Means all other timelines have been burned away. Not killed, just never existed.
Think about possibility for a second; each and every timeline Kang has already burned, each time he has had to kill Avengers/Heros/Villains. But not once did he care enough to learn their names.
This Kang wants to win. And he will. Always.
Why are you skipping things?? You've skipped Ms Marvel, She-Hulk, Werewolf by Night and GOTG Holiday special. No matter your opinion on the quality of these they are still part of the main MCU and are required viewing to understand what is going on in future shows, films and special presentations.
Right?? He’s skipping them because of a dumb poll, and despite all the hundreds of comments begging him to watch like most huge reaction channels do. 😊 So he’s not actually watching the entire MCU.
Yawn, let him do his thing ffs
@@camopb1548 No
The entire movie circles around the fact that Janet was afraid to admit that she had multiple entanglements with bill Murray and kang
For the starwars watch order: 4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3, Rogue one. That’s all… no other movies.
Ffs… he can decide if he likes the movies or not. I know people who like the sequels and solo, so I’d say watch them.
I think he should watch them in order 1-6, I've done it both and I preferred watching in sequence
@The Like Button then you ruin the big reveals... spoils the fun, no?
If they going in order then it's solo then rogue one
The battle with all the ants was probably the scariest thing in the MCU ha ha. The fight between Scott and Kang was intense.
i like ant man, movie good for me
