Comments on: Why Ant-Man Will Never Truly Be A Part Of The Marvel Cinematic Universe

Wow! You didn’t even watch GOTG, did you? There isn’t a single familiar face in that movie with the exception of The Other. It was the beauty of this film. It felt so far removed from the rest of the MCU and the “heroes” in this movie are fundamentally more flawed than the Avengers, which makes them interesting. They are not heroes, but some bad guys that band together to do some good.

How surprising that a film critic disliked a movie that the majority found surprisingly great, smh. And it certainly was not an Avengers rip off. Completely different set of heros with different personalities and more of a comedic tone overall. It was a good movie. I would even argue the character development in that movie was much better than the original Avengers. Of course that is in part because most of the Avengers had already had their own individual movies.

Well, I don’t regard critic’s opinions that highly anyway.

Actually my argument is sound. When I say they have “two distinctly different brands of humor” I am implying that Paul Rudd’s is inferior. Hence the “Childlike” comment. When I say there is room for one comic character it does not imply that comedic stylings cannot be varied. Chris Rock is a comedian and so was Joan Rivers… are they not different, yet both comics? Get your “trolling” straight.

I am not a huge fan of “Guardians of the Galaxy” either… if you take away the appeal of the catchy soundtrack (which a majority of people will cite as a top reason they enjoyed the movie) and take away the appeal of seeing familiar faces from other successful properties, then what you have is a rip-off of “Avengers.” Team of unlikely heroes brought together by a common enemy. If you have read “Guardians of the Galaxy (2008)” #1-12 by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning, then you will quickly see that the film is a VERY watered attempt at the original source material.

I can agree that there may be room for Hank Pym and Ragnarok for the upcoming Captain America Movie, as you put it… but I am of the opinion that taking away the credit of designing Ultron has dramatically demoted the character. Now we see Darren Cross, who I don’t recall ever holding the mantle of Yellow Jacket, taking away yet another facet of the Hank Pym character. The more watered down Pym gets the less I see him effectively integrating into the MCU… then again I will have to just wait and see what happens like everybody else.

Not to mention he must have forgotten a little movie called Guardians of the Galaxy!

Regarding point 2, yes it is true that they wrote Hank Pyms character off from being the designer of Ultron but there is still plenty of room for him and Ragnarok for the upcoming Captain America Movie.

Ya…you must be a dc troll, cause this looks awsomne…and tony stark is sarcastic and confident where scott is quick witted humor from a clearly un confident background…tony stark was always a hero where scott has to rely on others.

And that is just a few diffrences i notice from the trailers… [did you never see honey i shrunk the kids, come on…even your retort is lack luster]…

And as DARK as marvel is gonna get soon, they need more humor.

1 and done, lol…duh dumbass…this movie is aetting up a character, not a franchise…spiderman this is not…

When dr strange comes out are you gonna repost this with the names changed…boo

I digress, it must be a sad life you have…maybe when you grow up you will appreciate difrences.

First you tell us there’s room for only one comic character in the MCU (which makes no sense, it’s a Comic universe!), then two sentences later you declare Iron Man and Ant Man to have two distinctly different brands of humor.
Get your argument straight.

I think you’re totally wrong. It looks wonderful and funny, I’m very much interested in seeing this. Ant-Man will fit into the universe just fine, relax.

I think the movie is going to be awesome and I think he will fit in the MCU just fine.
