yep, looking forward to this :)
Me too. After the Stress Test Avengers 3 was it will be nice to relax and watch some good guys kick some bad guys butts.

Looks like this will take place between civil war and infinity war.
The Villain in this one..... Black Flag. :hide:

Henry!
If you're one of the seven people on Earth who haven't seen Infinity War, big spoilers ahead!
Surprised to learn that Jimmy Woo has been added (back) to the series at last!
Who's that? Oh, he just helped Shield fight GODZILLA, and out-Batman'd Batman by figuring out the best way to defeat his Fu Manchu-alike villain (actually Fu Manchu this time since like Dracula he's a Marvel character) is to
take the guy's offer to marry his super-awesome-cute daughter and inherit his organization! O0
There's an echo in here.....
What's that buzzing sound?

Don't worry, I resized yours to make it much smaller! >:D
(And tested out a suspected code functionality at the same time.)
(And echoed a joke made by MB in the review at the same time.)
Any Grogs seen this, yet?
I wanted to last week but had too much going on to spare the time. I'm somewhat meh about seeing it, though I did like Ant Man. Wish I knew why I wasn't more highly motivated to see it.
Thought I'd get around to it this past weekend, but somehow didn't.
The Ant-man films have had the unenviable job of following up the past two Avenger films, and the character (even the Wasp) doesn't have the visual cachet as other core Marvel heroes. The industry talks about how nobody knew who Thor and Iron Man or even Captain America were, but that isn't true -- people might not have known the characters or the stories, but they'd been on merchandising art since the 70s at least. Ant-Man and the Wasp, not so much.
LOVE this movie.
It's refreshing to watch a superhero movie where the earth isn't being invaded or some super galactic person is threatening the universe.
And.....I'd love to shag Evangeline Lilly :bd:
My crew thought it was a very good movie. Lots of action, humor, and plot. I would see it again. O0 O0
This one's on my list but so is seeing the Pacific Ocean and I haven't done that yet either. Probably see the movie first. :coolsmiley:
We saw it tonight. Very entertaining bit of fluff. Laughed a lot. Paul Rudd is very likeable as Ant Man. His daughter is cute as a button. The security side-kicks are still fun. Mike Douglas portrays a jerk genius well. Even the lead FBI agent keeping tabs on Ant Man was likeable. The biggest "villain" is probably what a jerk Hank Pym was for most of his life and the trouble it caused others.
If you want 2 hours of entertainment without a lot to think about, this is a good movie for you.
Still haven't seen it and probably won't (at least, not at the theaters) at this point. I'm kind of Marvel'd out, I guess. The only Marvel movie I'm somewhat interested in seeing right now is the next Avengers movie, but that'll be a while.

That's pretty consistent with the comics version of Hank Pym from Avengers #30 or so, up until around WCA #20... so 20-odd years?
One of the reasons I liked the Earth's Mightiest Heroes seasons, was that they portrayed a much less jerkish Pym. (One where when he mentally snapped and developed a Yellowjacket persona, it made a difference.)
Saw this one tonight with family and thought it was pretty good. Very funny with lots of action and good special effects. I liked it at least as much as Black Panther.
The only Ant-Man comic I willfully purchased back in the day was the one where he goes into Iron Man's armor to save a trapped Stark (Iron Man #133).
Into Tony's drawers? He was brave!
Just saw this last week and admittedly was underwhelmed. I might be getting a little sick of the retconning of plot points and maybe getting superhero'd out, though.
