Ant-Man and the Wasp - July 6, 2018

They’re Funny book movies. I go for all the colorful explosions and witty banter.

Fair enough but honestly I went with expectations at rock bottom so I was definitely very pleasantly surprised where as I went into BP expecting it to be better than simultaneous sex with two 19 year old Japanese girls and boy was it NOT that lol

Did I describe the media hype push for BP grand enough or should I add a 19 year old American cheerleader to the mix lol

LOL those are very specific expectations!

I on the other hand had fairly low expectations coming into both films. Neither of the films' trailers got me hyped much.

I would say that BP felt longer to me (I actually checked my watch a few times to see how long the film had left). Ant Man and the Wasp however just flew by. I think the latter was simply a more fun ride than BP was.

The MCU has also been pushing some good female characters. Shuri was the standout for me in BP and Wasp was for Ant Man and the Wasp. I'd even say Valkyrie was also the highlight of Ragnarok for me.

BP has the worst action set pieces of all the MCU movies which was a real shame coming off his incredible introduction in CW.

Absolutely about Shuri, Valkyrie and Wasp all three were great as was Wasp’s mom.

Tell WB that

Don’t get me started with them!

I loved it. Watched part 1 the night before and this one picked up perfectly. Great cast and fun movie. Enjoyed it more than Inifinity War too, which bored me honestly.

They better find the answer quick, Marvel is running right over their *****

I think Aquaman will earn more than IW and be the movie to kickstart the era of the DCEU beating Marvel/Disney into submission!

Wait...

Wait for it...

Almost there...

Almoooost there.....

I thought this was just ok. I liked the first one better, but this was decent. The end credits had me all Holy S! lol

Almost made it

Loved it- yes not very memorable after you leave the theatre but Wasp was the easy stand-out. Pym had a larger role. The baddies were very weak but weren't that critical to the story- just made for good fight/chase scenes.

Yeah the credits scene- WTF?- we know now where AM was in the Thanos invasion...but ..............???

You crazy Jye! Made me spit out my drink! Aquaman better than Infinity War! Whew, hilarious!

 

[jye4ever]

I have no problem going after that DCEU low hanging fruit lol

But back to AM2 while Douglas and Catwoman looked great deaged I feel that Fishburne’s deaging was the first time that Marvel dropped the ball wiith that technology he looked downright like a cadaver it didn’t hold up on Imax lol

Did what it was supposed to. Lightened the tone while we wait for Avengers 4. Scott is goofily entertaining and amusing while neither having Tony's dry wit, Quills charm or Parker's humour. Highlight was Wasp for sure..

What I was very disappointed in was the Janet rescue. I expected more time in the Quantum Realm and honestly, more of an understanding of it. I wanted the rescue to be on it's own to show it's importance, not told alongside the fight with Ghost and Sonny.

How can there be understanding of it when there’s only been one person with any extended time in it?

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

It made lots of monies.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I really enjoyed this movie. Fun and light... as they say.

By actually spending more time with Janet. You know the Pyms are scientists right? Glowing hands to stabilize a person's molecules then no explanation of anything.

Got to be holding it back for A4 and what will happen there. Guess there would be too many links to make logical assumptions in how A4 will play out.
