Cassie is insufferable, but that's not what really got to me. It's that the entire goddamned universe distorts to allow for it. Hank used to be incredibly (and justifiably) paranoid about the shrink tech getting out, but he blithely hands Cassie a suit and enough Pym particles to steal a cop car, because girl power. Cassie can take out multiple doom troopers with no training or experience, because girl power. Scott doesn't want Cassie to become a criminal like he was, because he knows where that path ends, but everyone tells him Cassie is right and he is wrong and the answer to this problem is for him to shut the fuck up, because consequences don't exist when you've got girl power. Scott is humble and easygoing and just wants a simple life with his family, but he's presented as narcissistic, cowardly, and an absent father, because no man can be good in the world of girl power. Hank had decades to invent the quantum telescope with all his knowledge, but Cassie knocks it out in a couple weeks with no formal study, because girl power. And on, and on, and on.

Throw in that she wants to a hero like Scott and the Pyms but Scott not wanting it. You can have some villian thrown in but the conflict is small scale and local and the important bit is the family conflict. Hell there could be a parallel story going with Janet and her family.

There are many good scenes in the disaster-piece that is Endgame; one of them is the scene where Scott Lang, after realizing what has happened, searches the monuments of the Blip victims to check to see if Cassie is among them, is relieved she is not, and then goes and finds her. Their reunion is a small, but really well crafted little story in the overall plot, and it's mind-boggling that they managed to botch that so hard, so fast after that movie ended. Dude literally spent his whole life doing everything he could to provide for his family. Turned to a life of crime when times got tough. Still went out of his way to see his daughter, provide for her, and take care of her every opportunity she got, even when her mom started seeing another guy. Dude literally saved the world, became independently wealthy enough that he could effectively retire. Now he spends basically all of his time with his family, except for when he goes on book tours to give inspiring speeches to young, impressionable audiences, telling them that anyone can be a hero and there's always "more room to grow". Scott Lang is the nicest, most wholesome dude in this whole universe, and the vicious, undeserved attacks on his character throughout the movie, especially its first act, are one of the most frustrating things I've ever experienced within a narrative.

Seems to me there was a pretty easy fix for many of these issues. Write it so *JANET HAD AN AFFAIR WITH KANG.* She didn't tell anyone because she'd been banging a supervillain for years. Kang's motivations are more scattershot because he's still in love with her, and enraged she's leaving him again. He shared his master plan with her because he thought they were in sync. This gives him much more human motivations, and sets up some complicated dynamics going forward.

She would need to be delusional or just plain stupid to not tell them. And, he's not "trapped" in the Quantum Realm, the Quantum Realm is trapped with him. She knowingly ignored that he would threaten the Quantum Realm for years. So not only is she made to be an idiot in this movie, she doesn't even have the moral fiber to want to help people who were helping her for 30+ years. They were a complete afterthought to her.

I've been saying "You think people disappearing for five years is bad? You have any idea the mess bringing them back would cause?".

No issues there, but here we had to do five years because Tony Stark wanted to keep his daughter, who seems to be completely gone from the MCU anyway.

We watched over the course of a literal real time decade Tony reaching that point. Even if at the first film he was already a genius, he wasn't a time traveling genius. We also saw him build an AI and all these systems that eventually helped him reach that peak. Not only that, but in Endgame he already spent years trying to figure that out to no avail, he considered it impossible, he had given up by the time the movie picks up that plot. Finally, he doesn't even do it alone, sure he is the guy who put it together but he needed Pim particles and the data Banner already had.

19:40 It's not just flaws in character either, it's flaws in how they go about being their genius selves. As an engineer, I find the MCU's depection of "genius" these last 5-7 years infuriating because it doesn't just come out of nowhere, it's not practical. Every one of these girl bosses is shown to have an infallible perception for how things should be built independent of the natural failures that come with applied science. Failure is a necessity for innovation, and I think the MCU understood this early on. Through Iron Man 3, Stark was shown to be experimenting and failing regularly. Sure, he made tech wizard marvels, but throughout his films there were always little gags about how an invention of his experienced an inopportune failure. His origin story was defined by such failures. This is more inherently relatable, because it not only makes more sense, but anyone whose built anything has experienced that moment where they realize they have to start over several hours or days into a project. Meanwhile, Cassie just plops out a device that is basically a walking contradiction of physics, and I'm supposed to believe she made that in a year by reading journals... OK.

Nick saying you have to have both eyes open. The whole dialogue between Nick and the car computer during that chase in Winter Soldier. Thanos speech to Thor/Loki before he killed Loki. The whole speech of Sharon Carter during Peggy's funeral (which is in my Memorial for a job promotion). Thanos speech from the first Infinity War trailer.

The writers for these new egotistical younger characters seem to want to make the new Tony Stark without fully understanding what made Tony great. People didn't like Stark because he was arrogant and full of himself, people liked him because he grew from that and went through many trials to get there.

@@boobah5643 He was arrogant, full of himself and VERY CHARMING (100% courtesy of Robert Downey Jr). Whenever he jokes, it lands because that's a part of his personality. And Tony wasn't a cocky funny guy for nothing. There are layers to it. Tony used jokes and snarky remarks as a coping mechanism for the chaos that happened to him his whole life. Losing his parents, getting backstabbed by Obadiah, getting bombed by his own weapon, had his heart removed and replaced with an arc reactor, losing Yinsen, fighting bad guys and aliens, PTSD, dealing with consequences of his own actions about Ultron, fighting Cap, finding out Bucky killed his parents, PTSD, Thanos and stuffs. But being an arrogant and funny guy alone won't warrant him to be a likable character. He needs to learn and grow from it as well. Just look at how he found the meaning of life when Yinsen told him not to waste it, how he kept trial and error with his suit and his many selfless acts to prove that Tony Stark has a heart. So I think it works both ways. Tony is such a lovable character because he's both funny and arrogant while also having constant character growth throughout the saga to overcome his flaws. When he grows, we grow with him.

Kang's motivation is weird because it at first glance seems almost benevolent, he wants to stop the other versions of himself from screwing around and messing everything up, but instead of just being slightly sensible with this goal and forming the TVA with the intention of tracking down the more villainous individuals when it comes to time (which the TVA would absolutely be capable of) he just decides, "other versions of me bad, must destroy their whole universe."

All of that an effort to prevent other variants of Kang from coming to exist in the first place. That was the perpetuated victory of the variant of Kang who ruled it. A variant of Kang who had conquered all, and had nothing left to conquer. He created a system to ensure that nothing he hasn’t conquered would ever come to exist. At least, that’s what I think it was.

I would have cared more about her character if she was someone who aspired to be a hero like her father, which would make sense why she went to Hank about wanting to study the quantum realm. I get that this sentiment only comes into place later in the movie-but the first two Antman films (from what I can remember) really focus on Scott's struggle with feeling like a hero in his daughter's eyes as he was a heist man. Like the first two movies already focused on this- and now it's like Scott needs to prove himself all over again.

Have the old heroes try to be parents. Helping the children but also try to slow them down to stay the cute innocent children they used to be. Family stuff. And let the inexperience of the young heroes and the decadence of the old heroes clash, let them work things out, let them work together. Work on their flaws. Become a team.

26:13 I think the Chronicles of Narnia contains a good example of a realm outside of time and space. This is best explored in Prince Caspian, where the Pevensies discover ruins of buildings that had been built during their reign when they ruled during their first period in Narnia. They gradually come to realize that over a millennium had passed in Narnia while they were still young people in 1940s England.

Madok is one of my favorite Marvel villains and I was anxiously awaiting his eventual appearance in the MCU. So much potential and they turned him into a total joke. What a travesty. It boggles my mind how far the MCU has fallen in just a few short years. They’re going to need some solid..and I do mean SOLID…films if they’re ever going to recover from this mess they’re in.

The main thing I hate about this film is that it doesn’t just go against normal descriptions/laws of the quantum realm/scale, but it also goes against its own descriptions/laws. For example they mention that Kang was banished to the quantum realm because it was “a place outside of space and time” but then it treats it like a normal parallel dimension with ZERO space-time anomalies like wormholes or singularities, and at the end the movie goes back to the exact same time period that it started in, which contradicts the time-traveling stuff that was used in previous movies. Especially since there are apparently different timelines, infinite according to the movie, it would have been really cool to see a bunch of different storylines across multiple timelines, and then, actually see them all converge at the end. Instead we get a bunch of random character arcs that don’t really have good payoff, don’t contribute much to the story, often had bad jokes that weren’t worth it, and don’t really convey any messages. It’s confusing, it distracts from any parts that may actually be worthwhile, and quite frankly its bad character design

In my opinion, what made me love Ant Man (at least I fell in love with him as a kid) was the idea of him shrinking down (or growing) and interacting with everyday object in that size. That scale thing captivated me as a kid, and shrinking (and growing) because m favorite power, thinking about the possibilities of exploring at a microscopic level, rather than another space adventure. That's why I loved the first movie. When he shrinks for the first time, it looked so real and felt so dangerous, It was fascinating. When he had to learn to communicate and tame the ants and he was around their size, it felt so real, interesting, and fascinating. Even the final battle on a toy set was cool. THAT'S what I loved about Ant Man. There is so much to explore with the shrinking thing, yet they chose basically a "Star Wars" Space like stupid sci fi thing, which was really an excuse to introduce the villain. You literally could have told me they were in another galaxy in space and I would have believed you. I would much more have enjoyed this movie if it had been as simple as ant man is going to the microscopic realm to explore, get resources, get a cure, or do some experiments and gets stuck there or captured by microscopic undetectable people. Maybe an ambitious ruler with amazing technology discovered the macro world through ant man, and being sick of living in the dangerous micro habitat, decides he wants to grow his civilization and take over earth nd surrounding galaxies, using Ant Man. Literally just thought of that, and it's a better plot than what we got. The only thing that might have made this movie better, would be if Scott had sacrificed himself to "trap" Kang. But nope, it all ended perfectly.

Yknow, given the sheer catastrophic damage that should’ve been done unto the world because of the blip, I feel like a neat villain idea would’ve been one that tries to fill in the power vacuum and create almost like a new world government under their control. It could’ve addressed the consequences of the blip, while also using it to set up the next saga.

The fact that a bunch of people who do art for a living created a story in which Scott gets belittered for wanting to write a book pisses me off to no end

This movie aside... Whatever happened to the Ghost villain lady from the second movie? The whole reason Scott even went into the quantum realm was because they needed quantum dust to heal her of her condition. Did she die off screen and literally no one remembers?

Writers in the MCU are no longer held to any worldbuilding standards. You get Kang's backstory in dialogue dumps because the writer isn't interested in telling that story and doesn't care how much that ruins the worldbuilding or opportunities for future stories. Audiences have proven beyond any shadow of a doubt that all the time, effort, and money devoted to maintaining a cohesive world is completely unnecessary and that just letting dollar store writers do whatever they feel like with little to no supervision can be just as, if not insanely more profitable. If somewhere down the line they get a writer who wants to do Kang's backstory, they'll just let him make up whatever he wants regardless of how contradictory it is, and the financial success or failure of that story probably won't have anything to do with how stupid the plot is.

In essence - if it weren't for him, the MCU would still be missing about 50% of its total roster.

I hate to use the, but think of the children argument, but it's my biggest concern for young girls. As making flawless narcissists role-models unironically, during the developmental phase of an entire generation of Disney film audiences, isn't going to have a negligible effect. If it was just one film, I would say this is an overreaction on my part, but it's the great number of similar messaging across many works, being normalized in some of the most accessibly mainstream media. The girl boss movement may be, a tongue in cheek, hilarious anecdote for those of our time, but for many people, young people especially, they're caustic symbols of perfection, victimization, narcissism, often enough - sociopathy... dressed in heroism, and perceived as virtue.

It was a long time project and by then Tony was long established as not only one of the mcu's greatest geniuses who has more than earned that Titel on-screen by then, he was also basically the main character AND the character who started it all and now finished his story that was in the making for a DECADE.

~18:00 yes, girl-boss films forget that very often, big, problem-solving heros are introduced because of a unique skillset. I often think of examples like Commando, where Arnie is introduced as an ex-marine or whatever. When we see him take the bad guys on, it's not wierd because he's the main character and he has a backstory (which may only be implied). Girl-bosses like Rey from Star Wars are introduced with no backstory and are suddenly amazing and perfect at everything. It's not the same thing.

And they lack the growth to become problem-solving heroes. There are basically three ways comic heroes are made. 1. they inherit the powers or have them from the start. But those heroes tend to pop up at some point, and their growth comes from the decision to become hereos. The MCU did that with Thor. He had his powers, was stripped of them, and had to become a better person to regain them. But he never had to learn how to harness them. 2. they develop the powers slowly over time. Learning to deal with those powers is part of the character growth. Often the powers come slowly and they have to get used to a new thing that pops up. A really good example was Smallville. Clark develops his powers over time. He doesn't just have them. And all "badass normal" superheroes. They don't have any superpowers, they are just normal people, but super trained. 3. They have a "traumatic hero unlock" moment (the most cliched, but also one that gives opportunity) The MCU did that with Iron Man. during his "traumatic hero unlock"™ he develops his first suit, and from there upgrades over time. They also did it with CaptIan America. Yes, he got his powers in a moment, but took time to move from a PR agent to a real hero. And obviously Spiderman, he gets his powers after being bitten by the spider. But he only becomes a hero after his uncle dies. That is basically the standard. Batman, Daredevil, Hulk, Deadpool..... But in all cases they have to learn how to be a superhero. No matter if their powers develop with their character or of they get them at once, learning how to be a hero is part of character development. And more often then not getting superhero and normal life together is part of their troubles. And they have weaknesses to overcome. And even if they're introduced without showing that backstory, it can be done later. When Thor shows up during the first Avengers movie, the other characters have no idea who he is and why he is there. They only see him trying to break out Loki. They see him as a threat, and it takes time to come together. Those girl-boss Mary-Sues lack that development. They just are and have now flaws and everyone likes them and they're always right and they're smarter and prettier than everyone else.

"Nobody can afford their rent unless they are a trust-fund asshole." Speaking as one of those "trust-fund assholes," that's actually becoming true. Where I live used to be hailed as having one of the lowest cost of living standards in the country, but over the past few years, the cost of living has steadily risen at a pace that's in notable excess of wage increases. Homelessness has increased - even people who work full-time jobs are becoming homeless. This hasn't seriously inconvenienced me, because I have a well-paying job ON TOP OF getting money just for existing, but nearly all of my friends are living in apartments they share with three other families, because only all three families working together can afford enough money to pay rent on top of all the other bills that come from being alive (food, and such). I find myself spending more of my spare cash just to help them out because they are people I care about, but this is not a solution that can work to help every person in the city, because even though I make a lot of money, there are A LOT of people who need help. So, none of that is really wrong. But I have a question for the film-makers: what are you going to do with that point? Are you going to explore the cause-and-effect chain that led to this situation? Are you going to examine possible solutions to this problem? Is it a meaningful theme to this movie? No? Then why is it there? Oh, because you know this issue resonates with the current generation that is supposed to have disposable income (but clearly doesn't have as much as you think, because they don't want to spend that money on your half-baked movies), so you threw it in there thinking that would make the movie appeal to them more.

"rubber-banding the films emotional range" is a kinda raw line. As someone who has rubber banded videogames before (thematically, it was another disney property) the message of laziness was conveyed instantly for me.

Tony Stark is a Genius with decades of experience and access to exceptionally advanced tech, He is shown making advances only through throwing himself entirely into his work *(Iron Man 3 showed us this was because he couldnt sleep)* and he even floored himself when he stumbled onto time travel *(we see him trying multiple times then falling into a chair amazed with himself when he stumbles onto it)* Cassie read some dusty journals from a man with zero experience of the quantum realm and managed to make a device to map a world no one has ever returned from.

It would have been cool if she was caught in the crossfire of that experiment, against her will. This would centralize the father and daughter relationship. It would also humanize her A LOT. She is just a teenager, she doesn't want to be in constant danger. And her dad feels that feat and pain and wants to protect her. That's what I'm saying about centralization. At that point, it's less about the universe ending stakes, it's about a scared family escaping a horrible situation. Cass deserves a happy life, and Scott continues to adore his daughter. This would also remind us that civilians actually exist lol. I would like a story of familial love. To the extent I'm supposing, it doesn't happen in Marvel.

Especially if they can waste their entire day on Twitter doing fuck-all. Twitter activists really do think they know what's best for the world. It's really funny when you realize they're also the same people that spout "Eat the rich". Which I assume means "Anyone with money that isn't on our side of the political spectrum" Because you know they wouldn't give away their money to anyone. Well unless it benefits their image, and even then I'm sure they'd be pretty stingy about it. It's so tiring seeing these people try to preach their crap while having no clue how the world actually works. Having people like that in positions of power is a mistake. Just look at the type of shit they produce and how they can fail upwards. Just look at that trash heap Velma getting a SECOND SEASON despite its poor reception. The blatant favoritism the media shows towards the Left and enabling their absolute lunacy is making things horrible for everyone.

Tony Stark didn't solve time travel quickly in Endgame. He spent the better part of 5 years on it and it's evidenced by him telling Steve and the others all the problems they ran into because he ran into them. It wasn't until he had Pym particles to make the version used possible that he solved it.

Two points you didn't mention. Didn't antman 2 end with them trying to explore the quantum verse. And only Scott is related to Casey, and the so called grand parents were out of Caseys life like Scott was. They got snapped out of existence until Scott and avengers snapped them back into existence. So she only knew them for a year or two.

Honestly such a missed opportunity. Imagine a street level movie where Scott starts the movie having sworn off heroism following all the crazy shit in Endgame. He tries to be there for Cassie more and tries to make up for the lost time. She meanwhile had become a super terrorist in his absence, had joined the flag smashers, or something similar, and had begun using crude weapons which she and her friends built based on Hank’s notes. The movie then following as a punisher type “hero” or the government begins hunting Cassie down and Scott is forced to put on the suit again to protect her.

rather than criminal I'd have her try to be a street super-hero, but in all her messy ways because she has neither the proper technology nor the training to pull it off properly. She could just rub off the wrong people (do I feel a Kingpin angle here ?), and Scott + wife have to protect her from the mob. In the meantime, you could introduce a federal agency superceding Shield with for mission to enforce the Sucovia agreements (contuinity anyone ?), and catch Cassie to bring her to justice as a vigilante. Douglas & WASP get the opportunity to shine running these men into a wild chase while the rest of the family deals with the mob

Wow, such good ideas in this section here. It’s almost like they weren’t written by an algorithm, unlike certain movies nowadays.

As far as I'm concerned, Ant-man is so boring and irrelevant, it doesn't matter what they do to him.

It took me a while to adjust to the style where, after he’s said all he wants to say, it just ends. I’m so used to KZreadrs having some weird, robotic sign-off. Here it’s just “k, I’m done….bye.” And I’ve really grown to appreciate that little detail.

Oh, to be fair, I’d normally try a slightly more obvious sign off than this - I’d just run out of patience by that point!

I clicked on this to get the gist of it. I had no intention of spending 1 and a half hours watching it. But I'm glad I did. You are brilliant.

10:17 give Scott credit he's actually conversing with regular people and is still an avenger. So he's not resting on his larrels.

I get the feeling that the biggest literary lesson from the past two decades will be: know where your plot is going, an ending to which you adhere, otherwise you risk writing yourself into a tightening spiral of increasing speed straight toward the ground, wrecking everything you worked to create and leaving the legacy of your art an empty, tattered joke that turns quickly into dust.

I was going to say rules and consistency for lessons. In this movie time is whatever the plot needs it to be to contrive away things happening in screen.
