Thought the trailer was funny, looking forward to it.

4/13/2015 5:19:03 PM

yeah this trailer is much better than the first teaser, looks awesome.

4/13/2015 6:06:53 PM

The tone seems like a good middle ground between Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy. I was a little skeptical of Paul Rudd being cast but now that I see where they are going with it I feel better about the choice.

4/14/2015 4:25:20 AM

I have never been a comic book guy, so I am totally unfamiliar with Ant-Man. I was not interested in this movie as it sounded utterly ridiculous. However that trailer has changed my opinion. I am going to definitely check this out now.

4/14/2015 6:09:04 AM

I just don't know if I can get into this. Seems kinda ridiculous even for a comic book premise.

Oh well. I'm sure it will bring Marvel Studios boatloads of cash regardless.

But...another special suit, in the MCU? Come on. The MCU is getting awfully crowded with stuff to keep track of.

4/14/2015 8:24:10 AM

Good follow-up choice for having Avengers earlier in the season. Keeps Marvel strong, and looks like it'll be a lot more Guardians in tone, which will be good after Avengers.

This is hardly ridiculous for a comic book premise and Antman is one of the oldest Avengers. And what other special suits are there really? Ironman and... thats about it? And both Antman and Ironman are far more then their suits.

4/14/2015 9:34:21 AM

superhero saturation?

4/14/2015 9:40:19 AM

I think so. Maybe that is the problem.

Iron Man
Captain America
Thor, Loki
Hulk
Falcon
Black Panther
Ant Man
Daredevil
A whole host of specials from the ABC show
Scarlett Witch
Spider Man
Thanos

And also, coming up is Iron Fist, Jessica Jones, Captain Marvel

That's just a whole lot going on for one little world.

4/14/2015 10:29:10 AM

Right, but so far Marvel has done a great job managing all of them. It is not like all these guys are in one movie together. I will say I'm skeptical for Avengers 2/3 though only because the cast for those is starting to grow substantially.

4/14/2015 10:31:55 AM

that's just a tiny drop in the bucket of all the heroes and villains marvel has

4/14/2015 10:38:18 AM

They're gonna have to write some off. It's the only way. We know it can't be Captain America or Iron Man. Thor has another movie coming up. I don't see any planned for Hulk...so maybe somehow Bruce Banner gets it?

4/14/2015 10:40:54 AM

Don't forget all of the guardians people too that I'm sure will be in avengers 3

4/14/2015 1:19:49 PM

Probably a better conversation for the actual Avengers 2 thread, but I doubt any of the main Avengers bite the bullet in A2. My guess is the group is pretty splintered which leads into Civil War. I doubt any of the Netflix characters will make it into the big movies unless the popularity really takes off.

I've heard rumors Avengers 3 part 1 will feature none of the main Avengers, so it would make sense to have Civil War really put an end to the group, before they reunite in Part 2. And if thats the case it allows them to use Part 1 to showcase the Guardians, Captain Marvel, Black Panther, Dr Strange etc.

they don't have to be written off, but certainly not every single one of these heroes deserves their own stand alone trilogy. Hulk has a good story, but honestly he's a better ensemble character in this (film) universe. And i think Marvel has realized that which is why they haven't committed to any more stand alone Hulk movies.

i think the plan is to have both the film and TV characters exist in the same universe (as evidenced by the events of Daredevil being caused by the destruction during the Avengers). But the Netflix-Marvel characters are going to be "street level" heroes with their stories having a smaller scope leaving the "world saving" to the major film characters.

4/14/2015 1:39:25 PM

Oh sure its obviously the same universe, but while the Netflix series or Agents of Shield may be impacted by the movies, I doubt it will ever be the other way around. And I doubt we will see any characters from the tv shows in any of the movies with the exception of maybe a small cameo.

4/14/2015 1:55:51 PM

My gut feeling tells me it has potential to be an epic movie like Iron man I

4/14/2015 2:24:14 PM

The best part of the trailer was the Thomas the train scene

4/14/2015 2:30:47 PM

All are intriguing scenes.

POTENTIAL SPOILERS
-----------------------------------------------
It's likely that Steve Rogers will be one of the first to go, but Bucky Barnes is supposed to replace him. I think RDJ's contract will be up first, so maybe Iron Man will "retire" (I think the cannon has him becoming less hero, more consultant, and that's something they can refer to him doing off-screen with a cameo here and there)
-----------------------------------------------

4/14/2015 2:50:39 PM

From what I've heard RDJs last confirmed role as Iron Man is coming in Civil War. I don't think he's too interested in renewing his contract after that appearance, so unless they're going to put someone else in the Iron Man suit he'll probably be the first to go.

Most interesting proposition to me is to see how heavily they'll factor in SpiderMan now that Marvel has some rights back to it.

4/14/2015 2:52:48 PM

I'd rather see Spider-Man do a crossover with Daredevil or x-men than put him with the Avengers.

4/14/2015 3:25:31 PM

I am pretty sure Civil War ends with Cap dead and Tony retired. But I would be shocked if the original Avengers dont all come back for A3 part 2.

I don't think the MCU is dark enough to "kill" off anyone in top billing

4/14/2015 9:13:20 PM

They've given enough hints that it's going to get darker.

4/14/2015 9:34:19 PM

I don't know...Daredevil is pretty dark. IMHO it is the darkest thing Marvel has put out to date.

I watched a Cracked article that made a good point. The MCU needs to kill off someone and do it rather quickly, as death currently has no meaning. I mean look at all the people that have "died" and come back, or at least the movies led us to believe they were dead...Loki, Coulson, Fury, Pepper Potts, Bucky Barnes...I'm sure there's more.

4/14/2015 10:02:10 PM

I keep hearing rumors that Hawkeye will bite the dust sooner or later. I don't think that's significant enough since we still haven't gotten a full backstory on him.

People have been saying that since Avengers only because he was so under/poorly utilized. Initial word out of early screenings is everyone talking about him really positively, in the same way they did about Hulk after Avengers. I think he will play a pretty big role in this movie, based on the trailers it looks like he is the one who attempts to recruit the twins.

4/15/2015 10:16:59 AM

I don't think they will kill off any of their big name characters (ones who have solo movie series), with the exception of possibly Captain America, I could see him being killed at some point and being replaced by Bucky, but only temporarily. They would def bring him back to life, they always come back in the comics. I also think they will eventually recast different actors in the roles as opposed to having different characters take over (with the exception of what I just said- Bucky as Cap before he comes back to life). I've read rumors that Quicksilver doesn't make it out of Age of Ultron, but I don't think that would be too impactful considering we are just meeting him in that movie

4/15/2015 12:04:27 PM

Not that it guarantees one way or the other but as far as I know the only reason people thought Quicksilver might be dead is because in the first full trailer there is a scene that shows everyone except Quicksilver surrounded by robots. In the latest trailer he is visible as a blur, the CGI must've just been unfinished for the first one.

4/15/2015 1:57:55 PM

Looking fwd to this. I am intrigued at the build up of "newer" characters to keep the MCU expanding. Hopefully, they can continue to carry the torch.

Fun movie! Ties in well to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. One thing that really surprised me -- for all of the jokes they had in the trailers about how cheesy the name "Ant-Man" sounds for a super hero, they cut all of that out for the actual movie.

Worst thing about it was Evangeline Lilly's hair. I get that they were trying to make her look more like the Wasp but I feel like it was a pretty obvious wig.

7/17/2015 12:41:14 PM

I actually really liked it. Matter fact I like this better than the Thor movies. It wasn't too hammy. It wasn't too serious. It was fast paced. It was to the point. Michael Pena was the best part of the movie. The inside a suit case fight scene was great to me. Stole some shit from interstellar at the end lol.

People actually saying comic books movies are getting ridiculous? Dafaq? Stop watching marvel characters comic book movies right now. This isn't the dark knight. They will never be. The more characters the better. Whenever they get to Thaos every character should be fighting him. In the comics all 600 comic characters felt like they fought him. That's the direction Marvel is headed. Get use to it

So, does somebody lose an arm or have no arm in this film? This has been a hidden theme in every phase two Marvel movie since Iron Man III. You know, kind of like how the Pizza Planet truck shows up in every Pixar movie.

7/18/2015 5:35:06 PM

^ Yes


This movie was fantastic. Great action movie, great heist movie, great comedy.

[SPOILER]





At the end when the bad guy's suit was malfunctioning, he lost his arm first, then the rest of him disappeared.





[/SPOILER]

7/19/2015 9:08:57 AM

Sweet. Yeah, so it is basically a homage that they are doing out of respect for the Empire Strikes Back. So, going back to Iron Man III, somebody either loses an arm or has lost an arm before the film takes place.

Check it out:

Iron Man 3: Stark cuts off the Mandarin's arm
Thor 2: Thor gets his arm pseudo cut off by Loki
Cap America 2: The Winter Soldier has a mechanical left arm
Guardians of Galaxy: Groot gets both of his arms cut off by Zoe
Avengers 2: Klaue gets his arm ripped off by Ultron
Ant-Man: IDK, have not seen it yet, but AndyMac has already posted the answer it seems.

I think that's pretty cool.
