Thanks for your honest review. I mean you guys liked Thor L&T, while I thought it was one of the worst Marvel movies ever. So I'm not too concerned and still looking forward to this movie. Just shows you how subjective movies are.😊
@@stevenmark4407 reviews on Thor L&T were VERY VERY mixed and it had one of the lowest MCU critic scores ever. This one seems to be pretty mixed too but at least everyone mostly agrees that the villain is awesome.
The thing is, Kang isn’t the big bad of just phase 5…he’s the big bad of the multiverse saga as a whole, so they have to stretch his character out over 3 phases
@@cngotham4111 The Kang Dynasty is happening and Dr. Doom isn’t becoming the bad guy after 1 movie. It makes no sense just because of Hickman’s Secret Wars. You heard from rumors that have no merit.
@@DanV900 dr. Doom is a bigger name then Kang. And Kang dynasty wouldn't even be the end of the multiverse saga. He would be so dragged down having him for that long. I mean this phase just started and it takes a decent amount of years to get to the next phases. Kang dynasty was already announce in the up coming years. The multiverse sage is probably gonna last til at least the end of this decade if not way more. So yes I believe Dr doom who had a very famous multiverse comic will become the main bad. No it doesn't have any merit but meither does Kang lasting that long.and I'm not saying Kang isn't the main villain of secret wars I'm just saying the multiverse saga will go beyond secret wars.
@@cngotham4111 Secret Wars is the end of the Multiverse Saga since Phase 4-6 is all of it which isn’t breaking news. Feige literally said it. Dr. Doom being a bigger name means nothing and it’s not dragging it out. Thanos essentially had one full movie and part of another one. Dr. Doom isn’t getting introduced in Fantastic Four and then suddenly becoming the big bad in the last movie of a saga. Doom in Hickman’s Secret Wars gained the power of a god to create Battle World and remake everything how he wanted. The rumors are insane for Secret Wars and one said the Beyonder is another Kang variant which is more believable than Doom becoming the big bad even though both are nonsensical.
Appreciate the brutal honesty you guys-that’s what we come for. It wouldn’t surprise me if this movie ends up being a lot like IronMan 3 where years and movies later the things they setup become referenced and all make sense.
@@BurgerSoup literally not even I think this person might be confusing Iron Man 3 with Avengers Age of Ultron which WAS the setup movie of phase 2. But even then the new saga here is called the mutliverse saga and we've had no rules established on how it works, how dreamwalking works, we've had no rules established on what bad things happen to characters outside their universe which should be a staple rule for STAKES, we've had no looming threat of Kang like there was with Thanos. This is Kang's first reintroduction since Loki.
Hearing you guys talk about the character arc between Scott and Cassie initially got me really nervous, but the way you’re describing it I think it’s actually the trajectory I hoped the relationship would go- Scott feels like he let Cassie down as a dad in part because she’s ended up so similar to him, only for him to actually realize that’s probably a good thing.
@@ReelRejects Really appreciate the honesty, gonna see it either way. If its disappointing it's disappointing but won't be mad about it like some on here
I think kang works like ultron. Its not the person himself its the fact that there is so many of them that even if the avengers kill him he keeps coming and coming and coming. He’s like a zombie horde with intelligence
This was an enjoyable film, I think everyone is taking the whole MCU way too seriously sometimes and have these Endgame level expectations like calm down and enjoy the movie. Majors was definitely the standout 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Dudes, honestly, the ability to pull all this together so coherently right after seeing the film ... this was a great non spoiler review fr. Great content guys
Kang was definitely good in this Film JM put on a very good performance when on Screen. When he first encounters Antman that was scary and very good imo
The line and delivery where he tells Ant-Man he'll kill Cassie and make him relive it over and over again until he begs him to kill him was dark as hell. Jonathan Majors smashed it as Kang
They made Thor: L&T (which was supposed to be epic & serious) into comedy, and they made Ant-Man 3 (which is supposed to be the more personal, intimate, small-scale & funny part of the MCU) into an Avengers-level movie? 👀 It's almost like we live in a bizzarro world.
Holy shit that's so true. Also at this point i think every marvel movies/shows already become a comedy. That's why she hulk isn't really popular, cuz who tf needs comedy show in a franchise with ever growing comedy in every release
L&T was always meant to be a romantic comedy. The director and creative team were on point with that from the beginning. You should judge a film for what it is trying to be, not what you think it should be.....
@@itzelwisteria1819 yeah, kinda weird choice by marvel that every movie has to have comedy, and it's more apparent in phase 4. I know all of us joke about "the marvel joke formula" in every movie with quipping etc. But my god that it's become annoying at this point and take more screen time with every release.
This is honestly exactly the vibe I got from the trailers, but I’ve never been a fan of the Ant-Man movies. I’m so happy you guys exist because it’s nice to get an honest, non biased opinion.
I still have hope for this film and kang as a whole I hope your thoughts of the movie change over time as these are initial thoughts and impressions but love you guys, your reactions and honest opinions
I personally really liked it, thought it was pretty solid, menacing villain, compelling characters, and I found myself completely immersed for the majority of the movie. I don’t understand why people aren’t convinced, specially coming off phase 4, I think this movie is way better than most movies in the last couple marvel years
It’s because it’s fashionable to criticize Ant Man..for whatever reason, like the review bombing of Ms Marvel you have to watch yourself for your own enjoyment. I mean, in a sprawling universe, there are a lot of stories to tell, if a story isn’t a cookie cutter plot, ppl complain. If it’s novel, ppl complain. Ppl always complain..
What movie did you guys watch? Really, I wanna know! I thought this movie was amazing! I loved Kang, and he was more threatening than Wanda in my opinion. I didn’t see the mid credit scene as cringy, I saw it as important and awesome to the whole story. Yeah, there are problems, but it isn’t bad! It doesn’t deserve to be second worst movie on rotten tomatoes, those critics are idiots and too critical! You can have your own opinions, but I personally disagree. I think everyone should watch this movie, it’s that good! Top of B tier or in A tier movie!
Well if they think that scarlet witch can kick his ass then how this plays will be interesting because when kang loses or gets "captured" its for a reason and part of his plan to win.
@@Masculai1z Which honestly doesn't make sense. He has intellect, yes. But he is far from being a caliber like Reed Richards, Bruce Banner or Dr. Doom. He has his suit and gadgets, who are hardly a match for the real heavy hitters like Thor, Strange or Wanda. He has "future" Tech, which isn't quite as advantageous as you might think. Tony Stark (comics) was able to hack Kangs command chair and temporarily disable it, whilst fighting him, in a matter of minutes. So someone of equal mind could do it too. That means his technology is not failsafe against the intellectual powerhouses.
@@CedricBassman marvel has already confirmed that Kang is the most powerful villan in the mcu and he who remains a Kang varient was able to isolate a timeline and prune other varient timelines and he was so powerful that people couldn't even touch him
Just watched the movie. I am SO confused by your reaction. The wasp was NOT sidelined in any way, Cassie has clearly had her suit for a while and is still working out the kinks, Scott never changed his motivation, he was just trying to save Cassie the whole time. I mean, I don't get it at all. I LOVE this movie. A billion times better than than multiverse of madness was. And what the heck was cringe about the mid credits scene? I have never disagreed so completely with you guys.
Thanks for the honesty. Too many want to simply ignore the flaws in marvel, yet I find it sad that no one wants to hold one of the most historic and powerful media conglomerates on Earth to any standard. I want the mcu to grow in scale, depth, and complexity of storytelling but it feels like the world is slowly becoming more shallow where it once seemed like just around the corner was a whole other aspect of the marvel universe to explore in live action.
I’ve been one of those people recently still enjoying them a lot, doctor strange 2 for example I liked a lot, Thor L&T I also thought was fun. Totally agree on this though, had a fun time with mates watching it, but really wasn’t very good, it was disappointing. The best parts were specifically the post credits scene (the actual good one) and Kang when he was making threats before the final battle
Yeah MoM very clearly established her as the most powerful main character in the mcu. No one short of the Celestials or the Cosmic entities are beating her in a fight. Her beating Kang 1v1 is expected. He’s a man with very advanced futuristic tech while she’s the Scarlet Witch that wields chaos magic, the most powerful form of dark magic in the universe. Kang is more about the long game, he could easily have planned for Wanda to be her own downfall or he could turn her against the Avengers. He’s not a physical threat like Thanos, he’s more brains than brawns.
This was one problem i saw which would be talked about alot which was that Ant Man was an odd choice to put against Kang. This seems like an Avengers level film but its Ant Man whos been built up as a "jokey" type of character in the last 2 films and this is the first time where something actually serious and world ending has happened to Ant Man if it were someone else like Hulk, Thor (although he did just have a 4th film) or Captain Marvel then i think opinions would be alot more different, then again i see why they chose Ant Man cause the quantum realm which is still not explained yet. If this film had a different villain and Kang was in a another film and they kept to what Ant Man was then reactions would be more positive
I think they saw how people reacted to phase 4 and immediately changed Ant-Man's script to be about Kang and have something to hype people up for the next baddie.
@@MamadNobari ye i see that as one reason why but idk i just found it strange to put Ant Man against Kang not saying he's weak to not take on Kang but who Ant Man is in the MCU and who Kang is overall its weird to me
I would say that Cassie having little to no overwhelming reaction to the Quantum realm could be attributed to the world she lives in at the time. She has lived through half of every living thing disappearing for five years and suddenly reappearing, Aliens starting wars, and gods/ robots attempting to take over the world. After living through all that, I doubt there is much that could surprise someone.
I just watched this movie and I honestly think all the bad reviews are just from MCU fatigue as I found this film much much better than the phase 4 films. I actually loved Kang as a villain and of course there are gonna be plot holes as it’s a comic book movie. The one thing that didn’t make sense to me was how Kang was so tech savvy and a genius but doesn’t know how to make pym particles by now when even Darren Cross was able to work the particles for his own experiments but I don’t know why there is so much hate for this movie. It did exactly what I wanted it to and more by introducing Kang as the next big bad that is extremely menacing and a huge threat to the multiverse while giving us a sci-fi epic exploring the quantum realm in new ways while setting up the next phase of the MCU without it feeling like a giant infomercial for the future of the universe. I actually think that people who know about Kang as a character through reading comics will have thoroughly enjoyed this film and only those who don’t understand Kang as a villain will find this film negatively because they simply don’t understand him as a character and the level of danger he poses to the greater universe/reality/multiverse, etc. as for the mid credit scenes, it was no different than the thanos scenes we got in avengers 1 and 2. It did it’s job in setting up the council of kangs and was accurate to the comics. I don’t know what you expect when one person is portraying infinite amounts of alternate versions of himself but Jonathan majors did an amazing job doing so. If you are a true fan of Marvel comics and the MCU, then I don’t see why you find this film as bad as some reviews are giving it as it was perfectly paced and did a wonderful job introducing us to new settings and characters.
Kang is a threat because his pursuit of his goals is seemingly never-ending, not because of his power level. He has plans on top of plans, endless do-overs and multiple versions of himself. He's like a time roach and eventually, the roaches win.
@@anothervictory2595 or get better writers lol .ironman was a b lister in the begining .good writing made him A lister .simple .problem is none of the new characters arent interesting as they were in earlier phases
Man I can’t wait to see Kang in action! Haven’t had a date with the wife in months due to having a baby but this is going to be our first movie in theaters so we are hyped!
I just saw QUANTUMANIA and loved it. It was everything I'd hoped for. Could have used more of the wasp but she was in most of the key scenes. Overall, a great opening to Phase 5 and a fun movie.
My understanding from what y’all are saying is, this movie did is the complete opposite of any good screenplay. The most obvious rule of thumb is, “show, don’t tell.” This movie told, but didn’t show:(
Hadn't watched a review of yours in a minute...and WOW. SO GOOD. Well versed, delivered with humanity and humor, your knowledge of film and marvel is well balanced with just an honest love of good movies and not a deep offense when a movie isn't perfectly made or all there...appreciate some good "aha" moments you gave me!!! Saw it at El Capitan on Thursday and it was a fun ride and I wanted more fight scenes with Kang not holding back and Antman/Wasp/Cassie not holding back too for like 5 more minutes even...would have been DOPE. Appreciate the hard work and reflection yall do! Big hugs all around!🙌🏿🎊🙌🏿🎊🙌🏿🎊🙌🏿🥸
@@cngotham4111 Yes, not only is he arguably the most powerful villain in all marvel but he has a story and a tragic life as well which makes him a S tier villain.
@@GlennShook nah, i kinda get greg. Me too the first time watching it, i kinda liked it. On the other hand, my friend who watched it with me, loathes it. I don't watch it again, but after we sat down, and he told me his complain, i made me think about the movie for a while. And everytime i think about a scene, it bothers me so much to the "why" do they go into that direction. The more i dissect the movie, the more I'm angry at myself for liking it the first time. Bear in mind to why i liked it the first time, i already know beforehand that almost everyone hate in the Internet this movie, so i tempered with my expectation, and only see it though "imma watch it and turn my brain off" glasses.
Tbh MODOKs new origin was very creative without making up some random character arc out of nowhere. It was a comic relief and the deformation made alot of more sense. Jonathan Majors performance was ACE
This is why I’m getting tired of the MCU. It’s connectivity aspect, at its genesis was sweet, but now its become it’s greatest flaw. If you spend more time building towards some far flung destination film and do it at the expense of the story of the movie people are sitting down to watch now, then that is a Huge problem. I hope James Gunn takes note of this while building his DCU. You can have connectivity in your universe, but don’t do it at the expense of telling a good singular story that everyone can enjoy and appreciate without feeling like they sat down to watch part 6 of a 30 part story and feel lost and confused the whole time. I don’t care about Kang Dynasty right now. Tell me a great Ant-Man story now and I’ll worry about Kang Dynasty when that movie comes out.
I appreciate you being honest, as that is ultimately what will lead to better films down the line. Although I 'll probably still enjoy this movie, seeing as I still liked Eternals when Greg didn't enjoy it. I think the films have gotten to a point where it takes
Appreciate the honest opinion! I tried to steer away from trailers too much just to keep the experiencing surprising. I'll still go see it and form my own opinion, but expectations won't be too high.
If I were Kevin Feige, id have this huge meeting and in this meeting we will watch all the reviews of a movie just released. The advice and complaints you guys give would be gold for movie makers. They need to listen
feigi can't do nothing without Jon favreau, Russo's bro, James Gunn..... seriously, those director left MCU and we saw what happened with MCU phase 4. I don't think phase 5 will be good either unless they bring a great director
@Bobo Boy Aside from Ryan Coogler pretty much all we've been left with is Marvel's B-Tier talent and a bunch of new creatives who have even less of a distinctive voice than the old guard.
I feel Marvel didn’t want to want to work backwards with Kang. I feel he will continuously become more formidable as the movies go on. Perhaps they didn’t want to make Kang to powerful right now but understand how that can be underwhelming.
I watched it today and I overall enjoyed. I loved Johnathan Majors acting the MOST. He felt intimidating especially Paired with Michelle Phifer in certain parts 👌🏾 Loved it. I feel like this wasn't about Ant-Man. It was more about Kangs Motivations and why he was doing XYZ. I liked the mid credit scene as well. As a whole I gave the movie a B-.
I mean they just introduced Kang lol. When we first saw Thanos INTRODUCED the average fan would not have thought he’d be powerful enough to wipe half of existence. Just curious why Kang doesn’t get that same opportunity to allow us to watch him rise to power? It’s WAY too early to say oh he’s not big bad worthy, or that Scarlett Witch would destroy imo. He’s an awesome villain in the comics.
The intimidating I feeled in Loki season 1 of Kang ,it did not feel like to me in this quantimania movie ,Kang is known for his intelligence where did he used his intelligence ,no main character got killed so stakes could not be raised there may be other method also to raise stakes but i did not feel threatend through Kang he is the worst villain in the form of stakes
Just watched Quantumania, I thought it quite good and have a good time, atleast it much better than Love and Thunder, my only concern is the length, wish can have it slightly longer for certain parts, to make it cleary and especially less rushy at the end. I am total disagreed with the most of the critics, it deserves higher score for that.
I hate when Marvel does this stuff with trailers. Where they set up this general idea and then it's never followed through. Like the PTSD and Alcoholism of Tony Stark in Iron man 3 that was explored for 5 minutes
Summary of movie: Its not an ant man movie, its like the how dr. Strange multiverse maddess the movie isn't really a dr strange movie but a scarlett witch movie
I love your guys reviews!!! I know it's not always easy to say you didn't enjoy something as much as you were hoping but the honesty is always appreciated, can't wait for the spoiler review
Just saw the movie and really enjoyed it. I think people are starting to suffer remembering the old MCU phases through rose tinted glasses. It's a good movie.
The main reason Scott worked in Endgame was because the little guy turned out to be a last minute solution that no one was expecting, Scott works as a last round entry, but him facing Kang in his first actual introduction is kinda screwing up Kang's big menace
@@jamesbuchananbarnesss Exactly. They already ruined him by introducing him in Loki. That's not how you introduce a cosmic threat on the same level or higher than Thanos.
I can not BELIEVE that "Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania" is getting such bad reviews. It is gorgeous, inventive, well-acted, mostly unpredictable, with some effective emotional beats. I had a blast. Can't wait to see it again. I'm a big fan of all the Marvel movies/tv shows and I can say without hesitation that this is in the top 10 for me.
much respect to both of you for your honest opinion! that’s why I love your videos 😊 here’s my two cents regarding Kang and you guys’ point about the movie not showing you enough reasons to consider him as the new Big Bad (and how Scarlet Witch could beat him)…I say, we do not know yet! when Thanos first appeared in the Guardians Vol. 1, we had no idea of his powers, they didn’t show anything except imply maybe…and then Infinity War comes along, beats up Hulk like he’s a nobody, and then we all pretty much said “Fuck, he’s dangerous”…I reckon the Kang Dynasty film will do something similar!
I think it’s more of an issue of reviewers over hyping themselves then getting let down when it’s not “avenger level” and instead “ant man level”. Remember who the DIRECTOR IS LOL. Still watching it. I remember how I got duped with the last Thor movie initial review…. I’ll never forgive u guys for that 😂😂😂😂😂
Pretty sure we knew what Thanos was about,we just didn't see him do shit for many movies. I just knew that kang would be an overhyped villain,they kept pushing him as the next big villain after thanos
@@HighCHD my man, what’s the big issue with some people enjoying the movie? :) yes, the latest MCU movies are significantly lower in quality compared to earlier phases, but if people can still find qualities to enjoy just let them be…of course your opinion is very much respected as well, and you are allowed not to like this
Question- Kang builds and entire conquering empire out of literally nothing and you don't think he was shown as smart? He wipes half an army out of existence and almost beat Antman to death and you didn't find him scary? Not intimidating? It made it ABSOLUTELY clear, without any ambiguity, that if Kang gets out he will LITERALLY distroy universes and you didn't see that there were any stakes?? I just didn't see ANY of the problems you did. Like none of them.
Hey Greg and John! Your moderator Bucky here! Do you all know when the next live chat will be so I can be there. Appreciate you all and I can’t wait to see this movie Friday. Update saw it’s 2:30PM my time on Saturday. I got you guys.
Of course Cassie is a Mary Sue. The only new MCU female character that's not a Mary Sue is Kate Bishop. It's cool, women don't need room for growth cause they're born perfect 🤷🏽♂️
I enjoyed it a lot. I loved that it focuses on Ant Man and his family and didn’t rely on cameos and such. While they had fun they didn’t go over board like Love & Thunder.
Just watched it and I really liked it. You have to wonder is the world ready for Kang? My opinion I don't think so because the story is difficult for the common critic. If you like science fiction this is a gem. Kang the Conquerer's story is really well explained here. Would you free him if the world depended on it?
Yeah I personally love the direction that the mcu is going, it has many different genres and for me it makes the movies a different sort of experience all the time. Like for Antman I thought that it was more of a comedy although the action was great, you could really feel the punches especially at the end.
The one thing I was worried about after learning Kang was going to be the next big bad was from all I knew about him listening to Comicsexplained, he sounded like an awful villain who was actually very weak and never got many chances to actually showcase what was supposed to make him powerful. So I am sad to hear that you guys immediately got the impression this guy is no threat to the real established powerhouses in the MCU. I love Majors and he looks the part but there is only so much you can do with Kang's powerset. The rest of the movie also being meh is really sad to hear as well.
To be fair, Scarlett Witch was powerful enough to defeat all of the Avengers and Thanos by herself. But the writing for her character has been all over the place in terms of special powers, abilities and when they're used.
I love ant man but I’m worried that it’s not an ant man movie but a semi avengers movie or a avengers set up movie. Also I think having ant man fight kang so early is a very poor choice and may cause many problems Thanos was the main villain you saw him in guardians but he was just sitting there menacingly Edit: thanks for a very honest review look a little skeptic on seeing it but I’ll watch it
Kang is a badass . I saw it twice tonight . I kept thinking how is the Avengers going to stop Kang. I'm tired people shitting on the MCU just be grateful we have a MCU. First time I saw it I gave it a 8 . 2nd time 8 1/2 it was really good not great but good.
I'm glad you were honest about Kang, I kind of picked on that with the trailers, its like they were trying to convince us he was a big threat but they never showed us anything that back that up.
There's a reason why Thanos never fought anyone until avengers it's cause if he's supposed to be that bad and menacing how could one hero beat him or even go the distance. And now kang is against maybe the weakest hero in the MCU one on one? Unless he kills lang it's a waste of time
I dont think I've ever agreed more with you guys on every point you made. Whole movie felt slight off, writing didn't work, cgi was iffy at the start. It felt like they just wanted everyone to constantly do super hero poses. Nobody struggled, there were no character connections, everyone was just posing, punching or running for a bit, then posing again.
Honestly the whole idea of Kang has never been threatening to me. I always knew him as Blaster guy from Earth’s mightiest heroes. If Marvel don’t do something new with this guy, be ready for a really shit Avengers movie 😂
Exactly. The endless variant gimmick is going to get tired quick. All it does is cheapen a hero's victory when he defeats one Kang only to have another one show up in the next movie. It gives the writers an easy way out. I know they kind of did that once (key word) with Thanos, which didn't sit 100% well with me, but at least Thanos was an interesting enough character that I could let it slide.
This is exactly what I have been saying about Kang before the film came out. Why introduce him in a movie that will only undercut his threat level by putting him against arguably the most non- threatening hero. Typical hollywood, they gonna end up screwing themselves over by keeping their biases.
I have to say I am very surprised with this reaction. After listening to your review, it sounds like your expectations aren’t just for a good movie. You’re expecting some type of enormous revelations in just one movie, all questions answered.
I really think MCU should slow down a bit to get right story ideas. Bad writing and fast production are two major issues. Also, I hate that they are recently trying to make runtime within 2 hours.

hello
watching it tomorrow :D
Would you compare it with TROS? I heard it is TROS level plot no emotions. Thank you for review
The Trailer Being 98% CGI Told Me This Was Gonna Be As Bad As Thor Love And Thunder
It's an awesome movie glad you enjoyed.
Thanks for your honest review. I mean you guys liked Thor L&T, while I thought it was one of the worst Marvel movies ever. So I'm not too concerned and still looking forward to this movie. Just shows you how subjective movies are.😊
Good point 👍
Very true. Thor L&T was so shit. So I always take reviews with a grain of salt. I’m honestly still excited to see the movie
They were still shills when they gave the L&T review. Now they've gone through character development and this is their true honest review

The thing is, Kang isn’t the big bad of just phase 5…he’s the big bad of the multiverse saga as a whole, so they have to stretch his character out over 3 phases
As that confirm as I heard other wise. I believe Dr. Doom is the main bad of the multiverse saga.
Should have just done the X-Men instead

Dr. Doom isn’t getting introduced in Fantastic Four and then suddenly becoming the big bad in the last movie of a saga. Doom in Hickman’s Secret Wars gained the power of a god to create Battle World and remake everything how he wanted. The rumors are insane for Secret Wars and one said the Beyonder is another Kang variant which is more believable than Doom becoming the big bad even though both are nonsensical.

Something tells me Iron Man 3 will age better than this movie. I consider it better than a lot of Phase 4 already.

hello there
Hello Guvna
No, it began. 🙂👍👍
No, Nowy Tends.
What’s up bro!
Hearing you guys talk about the character arc between Scott and Cassie initially got me really nervous, but the way you’re describing it I think it’s actually the trajectory I hoped the relationship would go- Scott feels like he let Cassie down as a dad in part because she’s ended up so similar to him, only for him to actually realize that’s probably a good thing.
You’d think that’s what the movie would hone in on, huh?
Like we said a lot of set up for stuff with little to no pay off in that regard
@@ReelRejects I'm nervous on these reviews. 😂
@@ReelRejects Really appreciate the honesty, gonna see it either way. If its disappointing it's disappointing but won't be mad about it like some on here

I think kang works like ultron. Its not the person himself its the fact that there is so many of them that even if the avengers kill him he keeps coming and coming and coming. He’s like a zombie horde with intelligence
Intelligence that is told,not shown
I still don’t get why ppl disliked Ultron
@@AmiAki he was an underwhelming villain
@@AmiAki because ultron could've been a thanos or Kang level threat but they nerfed him into a transition villain

This was an enjoyable film, I think everyone is taking the whole MCU way too seriously sometimes and have these Endgame level expectations like calm down and enjoy the movie. Majors was definitely the standout 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I mean if you enjoy generic Marvell movies that focuses on quantity instead of quality then I feel sad for you
@@BigSoulja69 that’s not the point you absolute brainlet.

After seeing the movie…. I dont agree with you guys at all. Thought it was very fun and thought the mid credits was fucking mind blowing
Kang was definitely good in this Film JM put on a very good performance when on Screen. When he first encounters Antman that was scary and very good imo
Uhmm, how good? Like how he got handled by ants? Yeah. More of a thanos level threat 💀
@@Ellie-Williams. advanced ants who had aged 1000 years in 1 day against a kang who is trapped in the quantum realm not really at his strongest
I agree with u both. JM, was awesome n terrifying when early on. Then they undermined his threat by having him lose. Smh
@@Ellie-Williams. please, those ants were just a stub in his toe. And Modok helped
The line and delivery where he tells Ant-Man he'll kill Cassie and make him relive it over and over again until he begs him to kill him was dark as hell. Jonathan Majors smashed it as Kang
That’s it, I’m done. Y’all are crazy, loved it all. Going to see in again this weekend. It ain’t Shakespeare fellas
They made Thor: L&T (which was supposed to be epic & serious) into comedy, and they made Ant-Man 3 (which is supposed to be the more personal, intimate, small-scale & funny part of the MCU) into an Avengers-level movie? 👀 It's almost like we live in a bizzarro world.
Holy shit that's so true. Also at this point i think every marvel movies/shows already become a comedy. That's why she hulk isn't really popular, cuz who tf needs comedy show in a franchise with ever growing comedy in every release
@@ilhamadigunawan5264 that's a reason I never heard before and I agree.
L&T was always meant to be a romantic comedy. The director and creative team were on point with that from the beginning.
You should judge a film for what it is trying to be, not what you think it should be.....
@@itzelwisteria1819 yeah, kinda weird choice by marvel that every movie has to have comedy, and it's more apparent in phase 4. I know all of us joke about "the marvel joke formula" in every movie with quipping etc. But my god that it's become annoying at this point and take more screen time with every release.
@@ilhamadigunawan5264 it was choice of woke Bob chapek
This is honestly exactly the vibe I got from the trailers, but I’ve never been a fan of the Ant-Man movies. I’m so happy you guys exist because it’s nice to get an honest, non biased opinion.
What? So if they loved it, are they not being honest?
@@andrewlaxton50 sometimes they love things that are just unlovable like she hulk , I know art is subjective, but she hulk was objectively terrible

This movie was awesome. Idk what you TH-camrs are smoking. The audience score of 85% speaks volumes.

I still have hope for this film and kang as a whole I hope your thoughts of the movie change over time as these are initial thoughts and impressions but love you guys, your reactions and honest opinions
why would they change their perspective on it after some time? the movie aint gonna change nor get any better
@@rodrigocisneros7019 they changed their perspective on Thor L&T after a second watch through
This is the reason why I’ve been such a huge fan of you guys since 2014. Y’all keep it real, and I respect that 💯 Keep up the great content!
I personally really liked it, thought it was pretty solid, menacing villain, compelling characters, and I found myself completely immersed for the majority of the movie.
I don’t understand why people aren’t convinced, specially coming off phase 4, I think this movie is way better than most movies in the last couple marvel years
Yeah, it beats MOM and LOT.
It’s because it’s fashionable to criticize Ant Man..for whatever reason, like the review bombing of Ms Marvel you have to watch yourself for your own enjoyment. I mean, in a sprawling universe, there are a lot of stories to tell, if a story isn’t a cookie cutter plot, ppl complain. If it’s novel, ppl complain. Ppl always complain..
What movie did you guys watch? Really, I wanna know! I thought this movie was amazing! I loved Kang, and he was more threatening than Wanda in my opinion. I didn’t see the mid credit scene as cringy, I saw it as important and awesome to the whole story. Yeah, there are problems, but it isn’t bad! It doesn’t deserve to be second worst movie on rotten tomatoes, those critics are idiots and too critical! You can have your own opinions, but I personally disagree. I think everyone should watch this movie, it’s that good! Top of B tier or in A tier movie!
Well if they think that scarlet witch can kick his ass then how this plays will be interesting because when kang loses or gets "captured" its for a reason and part of his plan to win.
Technically he would have to have already killed countless versions of Scarlet Witch with everyone else that opposed him across the multiverse
@@Masculai1z
Which honestly doesn't make sense.
He has intellect, yes. But he is far from being a caliber like Reed Richards, Bruce Banner or Dr. Doom.
He has his suit and gadgets, who are hardly a match for the real heavy hitters like Thor, Strange or Wanda.
He has "future" Tech, which isn't quite as advantageous as you might think. Tony Stark (comics) was able to hack Kangs command chair and temporarily disable it, whilst fighting him, in a matter of minutes. So someone of equal mind could do it too. That means his technology is not failsafe against the intellectual powerhouses.
@@Masculai1z countless versions of Wanda not the Scarlet Witch
@@CedricBassman marvel has already confirmed that Kang is the most powerful villan in the mcu and he who remains a Kang varient was able to isolate a timeline and prune other varient timelines and he was so powerful that people couldn't even touch him
@@s-ebbyy841 but some of the Wanda will have scarlet witch in them so it is not far fetched assume that Kang can beat scarlet witch
Out of all TH-cam reviews, I respect your guys opinion the most. I'm a bit nervous now but going in with excitement and an open mind!
Just watched the movie. I am SO confused by your reaction. The wasp was NOT sidelined in any way, Cassie has clearly had her suit for a while and is still working out the kinks, Scott never changed his motivation, he was just trying to save Cassie the whole time. I mean, I don't get it at all. I LOVE this movie. A billion times better than than multiverse of madness was.
And what the heck was cringe about the mid credits scene?
I have never disagreed so completely with you guys.
agree
It’s a b level movie it’s so bad its at the same level as love and thunder
@@BigSoulja69 I've never disagreed so completely with you Big Soulja!
Thanks for the honesty. Too many want to simply ignore the flaws in marvel, yet I find it sad that no one wants to hold one of the most historic and powerful media conglomerates on Earth to any standard. I want the mcu to grow in scale, depth, and complexity of storytelling but it feels like the world is slowly becoming more shallow where it once seemed like just around the corner was a whole other aspect of the marvel universe to explore in live action.
I’ve been one of those people recently still enjoying them a lot, doctor strange 2 for example I liked a lot, Thor L&T I also thought was fun. Totally agree on this though, had a fun time with mates watching it, but really wasn’t very good, it was disappointing. The best parts were specifically the post credits scene (the actual good one) and Kang when he was making threats before the final battle
Wanda almost beat Thanos, so her being able to beat Kang doesn't negate his threat level
Yeah MoM very clearly established her as the most powerful main character in the mcu. No one short of the Celestials or the Cosmic entities are beating her in a fight. Her beating Kang 1v1 is expected. He’s a man with very advanced futuristic tech while she’s the Scarlet Witch that wields chaos magic, the most powerful form of dark magic in the universe. Kang is more about the long game, he could easily have planned for Wanda to be her own downfall or he could turn her against the Avengers. He’s not a physical threat like Thanos, he’s more brains than brawns.
Which should bother you about the direction of the MCU.
Keyword... almost.....
The Threat of Thanos was already completly negated with making Captain Marvel so ridiculously powerful.
This was one problem i saw which would be talked about alot which was that Ant Man was an odd choice to put against Kang. This seems like an Avengers level film but its Ant Man whos been built up as a "jokey" type of character in the last 2 films and this is the first time where something actually serious and world ending has happened to Ant Man if it were someone else like Hulk, Thor (although he did just have a 4th film) or Captain Marvel then i think opinions would be alot more different, then again i see why they chose Ant Man cause the quantum realm which is still not explained yet. If this film had a different villain and Kang was in a another film and they kept to what Ant Man was then reactions would be more positive
I think they saw how people reacted to phase 4 and immediately changed Ant-Man's script to be about Kang and have something to hype people up for the next baddie.
@@MamadNobari ye i see that as one reason why but idk i just found it strange to put Ant Man against Kang not saying he's weak to not take on Kang but who Ant Man is in the MCU and who Kang is overall its weird to me
I would say that Cassie having little to no overwhelming reaction to the Quantum realm could be attributed to the world she lives in at the time. She has lived through half of every living thing disappearing for five years and suddenly reappearing, Aliens starting wars, and gods/ robots attempting to take over the world. After living through all that, I doubt there is much that could surprise someone.
Or that could be Kathryn Newton’s acting.
its not, its just bad writing
Kang is quite literally about to become my favourite MCU villain. I can already tell Jonathan Majors is gonna absolutely KILL IT.
That guys acting is fucking weird.
lmao stop .kang goffy ahh viallin trynna sound badass .thanos is a actual villain
Thanos is real
Glad your guys are honest with this review. Just hope for a fun sci-fi adventure. Excited for this and hope this is a cool start for Phase 5.
Remember guys, go see the movie for yourself and make your own opinions on it.
Can't wait to see the movie in theaters and form my own opinion, but I still respect your guys opinion
same
Same!
Same.
Ok lol.
Can wait to form my opinion from their opinions
I just watched this movie and I honestly think all the bad reviews are just from MCU fatigue as I found this film much much better than the phase 4 films. I actually loved Kang as a villain and of course there are gonna be plot holes as it’s a comic book movie. The one thing that didn’t make sense to me was how Kang was so tech savvy and a genius but doesn’t know how to make pym particles by now when even Darren Cross was able to work the particles for his own experiments but I don’t know why there is so much hate for this movie. It did exactly what I wanted it to and more by introducing Kang as the next big bad that is extremely menacing and a huge threat to the multiverse while giving us a sci-fi epic exploring the quantum realm in new ways while setting up the next phase of the MCU without it feeling like a giant infomercial for the future of the universe. I actually think that people who know about Kang as a character through reading comics will have thoroughly enjoyed this film and only those who don’t understand Kang as a villain will find this film negatively because they simply don’t understand him as a character and the level of danger he poses to the greater universe/reality/multiverse, etc. as for the mid credit scenes, it was no different than the thanos scenes we got in avengers 1 and 2. It did it’s job in setting up the council of kangs and was accurate to the comics. I don’t know what you expect when one person is portraying infinite amounts of alternate versions of himself but Jonathan majors did an amazing job doing so. If you are a true fan of Marvel comics and the MCU, then I don’t see why you find this film as bad as some reviews are giving it as it was perfectly paced and did a wonderful job introducing us to new settings and characters.
Kang is a threat because his pursuit of his goals is seemingly never-ending, not because of his power level. He has plans on top of plans, endless do-overs and multiple versions of himself. He's like a time roach and eventually, the roaches win.
I mean antman kicked his ass in this movie. 😂

I just saw QUANTUMANIA and loved it. It was everything I'd hoped for. Could have used more of the wasp but she was in most of the key scenes. Overall, a great opening to Phase 5 and a fun movie.
Yeah, I also saw it and I loved it too...I don't understand the hate man...
My understanding from what y’all are saying is, this movie did is the complete opposite of any good screenplay. The most obvious rule of thumb is, “show, don’t tell.” This movie told, but didn’t show:(
Without a doubt it will be the best Spider-man movie 👍
Antman and the wasp Quantumania is nothing like Spider man 4 you moron
I see what you did there

Saw it at El Capitan on Thursday and it was a fun ride and I wanted more fight scenes with Kang not holding back and Antman/Wasp/Cassie not holding back too for like 5 more minutes even...would have been DOPE.

After that Thor review, I have to take this with a grain of salt. Excited for this movie.
Well Greg just replied to someone saying he rewatched Love and Thunder and it went down a lot in his book.
Yeah i feel the same way they have THOR LAT a good review that’s why idk if i can trust them at all
Shouldn’t need a rewatch to know that. Lol
@@GlennShook exactly
@@GlennShook nah, i kinda get greg. Me too the first time watching it, i kinda liked it. On the other hand, my friend who watched it with me, loathes it. I don't watch it again, but after we sat down, and he told me his complain, i made me think about the movie for a while.
And everytime i think about a scene, it bothers me so much to the "why" do they go into that direction. The more i dissect the movie, the more I'm angry at myself for liking it the first time.
Bear in mind to why i liked it the first time, i already know beforehand that almost everyone hate in the Internet this movie, so i tempered with my expectation, and only see it though "imma watch it and turn my brain off" glasses.
Tbh MODOKs new origin was very creative without making up some random character arc out of nowhere. It was a comic relief and the deformation made alot of more sense.
Jonathan Majors performance was ACE
That should be fine, if every character (besides Kang) in this movie WASN'T already a comic relief
“The movie is fine”
Spend 22 minutes telling us why it wasn’t fine.
This is why I’m getting tired of the MCU. It’s connectivity aspect, at its genesis was sweet, but now its become it’s greatest flaw. If you spend more time building towards some far flung destination film and do it at the expense of the story of the movie people are sitting down to watch now, then that is a Huge problem.
I hope James Gunn takes note of this while building his DCU. You can have connectivity in your universe, but don’t do it at the expense of telling a good singular story that everyone can enjoy and appreciate without feeling like they sat down to watch part 6 of a 30 part story and feel lost and confused the whole time. I don’t care about Kang Dynasty right now. Tell me a great Ant-Man story now and I’ll worry about Kang Dynasty when that movie comes out.
After hearing this, I really wish they would stop using Ant-Man movies as setup movies and just do their own thing.
true
I appreciate you being honest, as that is ultimately what will lead to better films down the line. Although I 'll probably still enjoy this movie, seeing as I still liked Eternals when Greg didn't enjoy it. I think the films have gotten to a point where it takes
I actually really loved this movie
Thank you for your honesty and not shilling like the other review channels.
I appreciate the honesty boys. Solid review!
Appreciate the honest opinion! I tried to steer away from trailers too much just to keep the experiencing surprising. I'll still go see it and form my own opinion, but expectations won't be too high.
Bummer, I was looking forward to seeing this in the theater. I will wait until it’s on Disney+. Thanks for your honest review.

@@boboboy8189 A great director who knows the source material
@Bobo Boy Aside from Ryan Coogler pretty much all we've been left with is Marvel's B-Tier talent and a bunch of new creatives who have even less of a distinctive voice than the old guard.
Can’t please everybody
So you are telling me Thor love and thunder is better than ant man and wasp quantummania. And the jokes are better. How
This is why I like this page. It seems some similar react channels just pretend to love everything they’ve ever seen.
They better not ruin Dr. Doom like they ruined Kang.
I feel Marvel didn’t want to want to work backwards with Kang. I feel he will continuously become more formidable as the movies go on. Perhaps they didn’t want to make Kang to powerful right now but understand how that can be underwhelming.
Yes I understand them but sound like they want a lil push which I don’t blame but come on everyone wasn’t this excited for ironman
I watched it today and I overall enjoyed. I loved Johnathan Majors acting the MOST. He felt intimidating especially Paired with Michelle Phifer in certain parts 👌🏾 Loved it. I feel like this wasn't about Ant-Man. It was more about Kangs Motivations and why he was doing XYZ. I liked the mid credit scene as well. As a whole I gave the movie a B-.
Ant man is one of the best character left in mcu. Miss the old gang
I don’t know what to expect but Kang looks sick so that’s all that matters
The look of a character is more important than character development, motive, and presenting an actual threat? You’re a marvel moron.
The only sick thing about Kang is only the comic accurate suit. Other than that is straight up MCU garbage.
I mean they just introduced Kang lol. When we first saw Thanos INTRODUCED the average fan would not have thought he’d be powerful enough to wipe half of existence. Just curious why Kang doesn’t get that same opportunity to allow us to watch him rise to power? It’s WAY too early to say oh he’s not big bad worthy, or that Scarlett Witch would destroy imo. He’s an awesome villain in the comics.
Exactly.
The intimidating I feeled in Loki season 1 of Kang ,it did not feel like to me in this quantimania movie ,Kang is known for his intelligence where did he used his intelligence ,no main character got killed so stakes could not be raised there may be other method also to raise stakes but i did not feel threatend through Kang he is the worst villain in the form of stakes
@@rupamtiwari8031 He didn't die. He'll absorb the multiversal engine core's power and become the Beyonder.
Just watched Quantumania, I thought it quite good and have a good time, atleast it much better than Love and Thunder, my only concern is the length, wish can have it slightly longer for certain parts, to make it cleary and especially less rushy at the end. I am total disagreed with the most of the critics, it deserves higher score for that.
I hate when Marvel does this stuff with trailers. Where they set up this general idea and then it's never followed through. Like the PTSD and Alcoholism of Tony Stark in Iron man 3 that was explored for 5 minutes
Summary of movie:
Its not an ant man movie, its like the how dr. Strange multiverse maddess the movie isn't really a dr strange movie but a scarlett witch movie

What I already like about this movie is that it's Scott who's gonna be the first person to face the main villain of the multiverse.
why do u like that tho?
The main reason Scott worked in Endgame was because the little guy turned out to be a last minute solution that no one was expecting, Scott works as a last round entry, but him facing Kang in his first actual introduction is kinda screwing up Kang's big menace
@@jamesbuchananbarnesss Exactly. They already ruined him by introducing him in Loki. That's not how you introduce a cosmic threat on the same level or higher than Thanos.
@@anothervictory2595 I think the way they introduced Kang in the Loki series is great actually!
I can not BELIEVE that "Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania" is getting such bad reviews. It is gorgeous, inventive, well-acted, mostly unpredictable, with some effective emotional beats. I had a blast. Can't wait to see it again. I'm a big fan of all the Marvel movies/tv shows and I can say without hesitation that this is in the top 10 for me.
I enjoyed it too but was a 6.5/7 out of 10 for me
Presenting bad CGI and intentionally pointing it out and making fun of it in your movies isn't a pass for not giving bad CGI
much respect to both of you for your honest opinion! that’s why I love your videos 😊 here’s my two cents regarding Kang and you guys’ point about the movie not showing you enough reasons to consider him as the new Big Bad (and how Scarlet Witch could beat him)…I say, we do not know yet! when Thanos first appeared in the Guardians Vol. 1, we had no idea of his powers, they didn’t show anything except imply maybe…and then Infinity War comes along, beats up Hulk like he’s a nobody, and then we all pretty much said “Fuck, he’s dangerous”…I reckon the Kang Dynasty film will do something similar!
I mean kang alter and delete timelines without getting affected
I think it’s more of an issue of reviewers over hyping themselves then getting let down when it’s not “avenger level” and instead “ant man level”. Remember who the DIRECTOR IS LOL. Still watching it. I remember how I got duped with the last Thor movie initial review…. I’ll never forgive u guys for that 😂😂😂😂😂
Pretty sure we knew what Thanos was about,we just didn't see him do shit for many movies.
I just knew that kang would be an overhyped villain,they kept pushing him as the next big villain after thanos
Bro y’all coping hard, the movie is bad stop trying to justify it
@@HighCHD my man, what’s the big issue with some people enjoying the movie? :) yes, the latest MCU movies are significantly lower in quality compared to earlier phases, but if people can still find qualities to enjoy just let them be…of course your opinion is very much respected as well, and you are allowed not to like this
Question- Kang builds and entire conquering empire out of literally nothing and you don't think he was shown as smart? He wipes half an army out of existence and almost beat Antman to death and you didn't find him scary? Not intimidating?
It made it ABSOLUTELY clear, without any ambiguity, that if Kang gets out he will LITERALLY distroy universes and you didn't see that there were any stakes??
I just didn't see ANY of the problems you did. Like none of them.
This movie was actually really good they got it at 51% on rotten tomatoes like wtf shit was better than that
After watching the movie i literally agree with every point you guys made
You guys love Thor love and thunder, I mean this can’t be that bad lol
Love and thunder wasn't bad marvel fans i swear walk around with drool in there mouth complete morons
Hey Greg and John! Your moderator Bucky here! Do you all know when the next live chat will be so I can be there. Appreciate you all and I can’t wait to see this movie Friday.
Update saw it’s 2:30PM my time on Saturday. I got you guys.
so excited to go see the movie ! missed Scott a lot
The overhype was always going to hurt this movie. I enjoyed it. Funny, good visuals, story set up. I'm a DC guy I had a good time
U always make high quality videos !
Of course Cassie is a Mary Sue. The only new MCU female character that's not a Mary Sue is Kate Bishop. It's cool, women don't need room for growth cause they're born perfect 🤷🏽♂️
Give character development easy
I enjoyed it a lot. I loved that it focuses on Ant Man and his family and didn’t rely on cameos and such.
While they had fun they didn’t go over board like Love & Thunder.
Anyone know what's happening with the Brooklyn Nine Nine reactions? Some weeks we get it and sometimes we don't
Just watched it and I really liked it. You have to wonder is the world ready for Kang? My opinion I don't think so because the story is difficult for the common critic. If you like science fiction this is a gem. Kang the Conquerer's story is really well explained here. Would you free him if the world depended on it?
Yeah I personally love the direction that the mcu is going, it has many different genres and for me it makes the movies a different sort of experience all the time. Like for Antman I thought that it was more of a comedy although the action was great, you could really feel the punches especially at the end.
I think the problem is people are expecting every movie to have a Infinity War/ Endgame expectation instead of making a good Marvel movie
Is the beginning of the end for Marvel? I feel like we've had mid movie after mid movie and it hurts cuz I had so much faith in them after endgame 😭
Take reviews with a grain of salt 😅
Everything falls down eventually. More interest and Super Hero films have wained the past few years
Yup. Hopefully James Gunn's DCU delivers.
The one thing I was worried about after learning Kang was going to be the next big bad was from all I knew about him listening to Comicsexplained, he sounded like an awful villain who was actually very weak and never got many chances to actually showcase what was supposed to make him powerful.
So I am sad to hear that you guys immediately got the impression this guy is no threat to the real established powerhouses in the MCU. I love Majors and he looks the part but there is only so much you can do with Kang's powerset. The rest of the movie also being meh is really sad to hear as well.
Feels like the whole thing was planned by Kang to escape secretly, we will know more when we see him again. Best MCU material since MoM imo.
To be fair, Scarlett Witch was powerful enough to defeat all of the Avengers and Thanos by herself. But the writing for her character has been all over the place in terms of special powers, abilities and when they're used.
I love ant man but I’m worried that it’s not an ant man movie but a semi avengers movie or a avengers set up movie. Also I think having ant man fight kang so early is a very poor choice and may cause many problems
Thanos was the main villain you saw him in guardians but he was just sitting there menacingly
Edit: thanks for a very honest review look a little skeptic on seeing it but I’ll watch it
Kang is a badass . I saw it twice tonight . I kept thinking how is the Avengers going to stop Kang. I'm tired people shitting on the MCU just be grateful we have a MCU. First time I saw it I gave it a 8 . 2nd time 8 1/2 it was really good not great but good.
I'm glad you were honest about Kang, I kind of picked on that with the trailers, its like they were trying to convince us he was a big threat but they never showed us anything that back that up.
There's a reason why Thanos never fought anyone until avengers it's cause if he's supposed to be that bad and menacing how could one hero beat him or even go the distance. And now kang is against maybe the weakest hero in the MCU one on one? Unless he kills lang it's a waste of time
I dont think I've ever agreed more with you guys on every point you made. Whole movie felt slight off, writing didn't work, cgi was iffy at the start. It felt like they just wanted everyone to constantly do super hero poses. Nobody struggled, there were no character connections, everyone was just posing, punching or running for a bit, then posing again.
Honestly the whole idea of Kang has never been threatening to me. I always knew him as Blaster guy from Earth’s mightiest heroes.
If Marvel don’t do something new with this guy, be ready for a really shit Avengers movie 😂
Exactly. The endless variant gimmick is going to get tired quick. All it does is cheapen a hero's victory when he defeats one Kang only to have another one show up in the next movie. It gives the writers an easy way out. I know they kind of did that once (key word) with Thanos, which didn't sit 100% well with me, but at least Thanos was an interesting enough character that I could let it slide.
This is exactly what I have been saying about Kang before the film came out. Why introduce him in a movie that will only undercut his threat level by putting him against arguably the most non- threatening hero. Typical hollywood, they gonna end up screwing themselves over by keeping their biases.
He would need to kill all of them for it to be worth using him in this movie but that’s obviously not what happens.
I always appreciate the both of you to be brutally honest. I value your opinions too. But to me this was pretty dope movie. I really liked it
I have to say I am very surprised with this reaction. After listening to your review, it sounds like your expectations aren’t just for a good movie. You’re expecting some type of enormous revelations in just one movie, all questions answered.
nah the movie probably just sucked
I really think MCU should slow down a bit to get right story ideas. Bad writing and fast production are two major issues. Also, I hate that they are recently trying to make runtime within 2 hours.
