Ant-Man and the Wasp - The MOVIE

[BLUEVOODU]

Who has seen this?   And what are your thoughts??

I will provide no spoilers at this time ... or even hidden spoilers.   I know @Grindspine has seen it ... and I think @SpartanEvolved ... probably @mastermario too...
MAYBE @CreepinDeth and @targetrasp ...  or @HylianSeven ?

Comments?  Thoughts? Post it up!

Great movie.  It is impossible to talk about the ending without invoking spoilers and the other Marvel Cinematic Universe movies though.

[targetrasp]

I'm still on my kick of buying some preordered special collectors edition instead of going to the theater, so I'm going to be a few Marvel movies behind you guys.

Ant Man was surprisingly good so i'm hopeful for the second.

[mastermario]

Agreed, I thought it was really good. Cool ending, good story, good action, good acting.  It got a few bad reviews but I don't really think they were justified.

[Jack]

I really enjoyed it. I loved the first Antman as well to my surprise. The after credits scene though...

[CreepinDeth]

Turned out great and I thought it was better than the first. Can't wait for the next Avengers movie. 

[BLUEVOODU]

@Jack   LOL... it's so frustrating too.

I know... I agree with everyone else.  I was PLEASANTLY surprised at this movie.  They did such a great job.  I have to say... there have been A LOT of great movies this year... and more I ended up opting to just rent later on to save money.  There definitely were others I wanted to see.

[BLUEVOODU]

@Grindspine SOO... About that ending 

@CreepinDeth I can't wait for the next avengers movie as well.  IS that next year? OR do we have to wait longer?  *Starting to get the shakes*

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie but can understand why some may have given it bad reviews.  For instance, the wasp as well as the villain were a little over-acted and Michelle Pfeiffer's role was mildly cheesy. However, it was a treat to see Pfeiffer back on the big screen.  Like Star Wars Episode I I believe Antman and the Wasp were produced to be digestible to a younger / broader audience. Paul Rudd's cheeky comedy style and Michael Pena's performance as a spastic nerve bag were successful in reaching that broad audience. Overall, I give Antman and the Wasp a thumbs up

Got to wait until 2019. Marvel are monsters.

[BLUEVOODU]

Lol @CreepinDeth  monsters they are!

@NoGame welcome to the forums - feel free to post up in any topic. We are glad to have you

So was I the only person here that was incredibly bored with it and thought it was a giant clusterfrick?  XD  It's like in my bottom 5 marvel movies.

@Kinikko LOL... based on all the previous responses... I have to say Yes you are 

It was definitely different... but I enjoyed the movie.  If I saw It a second time around... I may have a different story.  MAY have.

I mean I didn't even laugh at any of their attempts at jokes, lol.  If I had been by myself I probably would have walked out 1/3 of the way through.

@Kinikko that sounds like an awful and a crappy experience. Did anyone else that was with you say it was that awful too?

No they were cracking up dying the whole way though, I just kept looking at them like O.o

Husband just thought it was okay, not too great but not bad. 

[mastermario]

I guess I just really like Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly. They both have a dry, sarcastic sense of humor and I can see how that could annoy people.

[BLUEVOODU]

Yeah.  Maybe that's the difference... humor styles people enjoy. 

I'd like to see it again. Makes me want to go back and watch the 1st one again too lol. 

[targetrasp]

Ant-Man and the Wasp is on Netflix now so I've finally watched it.

I must say, I enjoy these movies, just not enough to pay for them.

I started reading comics in the early 90s making the majority of my exposure what is now considered the copper age of comics. Ant-man just wasn't really featured then and as such not someone I really attached to.

The cast are awesome - Kate from Lost, Dutch from Killjoys, Josh from Clueless, the girl I get confused with the Hooters girl from Big Daddy, not to mention Gordon Gekko and Vicki Vale {{Correction - Kim Basinger was Vicki Vale, Michelle Pfeiffer was Catwoman before Halle}}... the story could be meh (which it kinda was) and I'd still enjoy. It also helps that Ant-man is such a 3rd string super hero I go in with no expectations, as such its hard to be disappointed.

[BLUEVOODU]

I really want to see this title again.  Ant-Man and the Wasp was awesome.. she was also the She Elf in the Hobbit series.

DAt Ending though... as @Grindspine and others mentioned.  That would suck to have happen... worst timing ever lol.

[targetrasp]

that reminds me, it's about time to rewatch all the LOTR and Hobbit movies

[Grindspine]

One does not simply derail the thread into LOTR.



As said above, Ant Man & the Wasp is still on Netflix.  It is a good watch!

[BLUEVOODU]

Woot... @Grindspine just got the 100 Mega Shock Title lol.... well played reference AND your  100th post.

I wish this was on Prime right now...    They rarely have Marvel anything... which is odd.  They have a lot of binge-watchable shows like Psych and 24 always available.  That's good... as we binge watched both while studying.

[targetrasp]

haha

[BLUEVOODU]

Hm... Anakin versus Sauron ... that might be a decent match up.
