If you watched Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania recently, then you likely have the EXACT same question we do: what the heck was that?! After the CGI fest, cringe story beats, and swapped ending, we have to ask what Marvel is doing at this point. What went wrong and can they recover?

@DannyDaLion Год назад

I think you’re absolutely right. In the trailer from like 4 months ago the voice over has Kang say “I can get you home, I can get you more time. What’s it gonna be…Antman”. It almost seems like they are implying Scott is the one who wants more time with his daughter . The time he lost during the blip and she grew up without him. But in actuality the ‘get you home, get you time’ is talking to Janet who wants to get back to Hope. I remember thinking initially when I watched the trailer Scott makes a deal with Kang not knowing who he is. After watching the movie I thought maybe I was tricked with the deceptive marvel editing. But maybe my initial thought was right. Who knows.

Quantumania is a perfect example of why Marvel needs to stop pushing unrealistic deadlines for movies to be released. The problem isn't the writers, actors, or any of the people who worked on it, but it's the deadlines and that they are rushing to finish. They also need to stop being unfair to their VFX workers!

They can’t, they have to keep pushing out poor quality products to keep Disney+ afloat, Marvel is now the only main draw for Disney+ and they need to have a ton of new releases to try and keep peoples subscriptions. That, plus trying to follow in the footsteps of the failed ‘all new, all different’ path that the now failed Marvel Comics tried is resulting in the downfall of the MCU.

I'd have personally loved it if the Kang we got in Quantimania was exiled by the other Kangs not for wiping out timelines, but for wiping out timelines that produced evil Kang's. And because it's the multiverse, you could have it be where he's the only good Kang left, and he took over the quantum realm not to conquer it like every other Kang, but rather to give the citizens there some form of protection, even if they don't want it. That would be an amazing twist, and a way to set up the Kang dynasty. Have it be where, with the end of the movie, this Kang could send them back willingly, but doing so sends out a signal that alerts the other Kangs that he's still alive, and so they band together to wipe out that timeline to destroy any threats to their dominance

@myStitch11 Год назад

I remember there was a pretty popular theory floating around when trailers dropped about Kang initially offering Scott the ability to go back in time, didn’t miss 5 years with his daughter. But then that plot ended up being Janet’s and no such offer was given to Scott which felt off to me. Like, you could have had a good parallel between Janet and Scott of both lost out on years with their daughters and Kang offering the same deal of giving those lost years back. I almost wonder if this was initially a plan, even more generational parallels

@DanielGoldhorn Год назад

That makes sense actually. Because in their climactic fist-fight in front of the portal, Kang says that he made that offer to Scott, which... he didn't. He made it to Janet. I think this theory of the story getting cut up in post-production makes a LOT of sense.

@dosomestuff1949 Год назад

BRO EXACLRT

@danielhofmans4564 Год назад

This is what I went into theaters expecting, a deal to get him back what he’s missed from with cassie. If you include prison and house arrest(he was able to have fun inside but still) on top of the 5 years of the blip, he missed 10 whole years of her life. And Janet who has experienced this lost time would be able to talk him out of it and towards experiencing this present and the future he has currently.

@somethinghilarious6299 Год назад

I heard this rumour at that point and I am glad they didn't do it. I dont think this makes sense to risk such a big thing just to get those 5 years. He is not the only one lost his 5 years. And also scott has lived years in prison. He missed her daughter's whole childhood. Missing 5 years of teenage isn't that much of a big deal.

@HanmaHeiro Год назад

100% this. The trailers had Kang offer something to Scott and it had to have been time. It even ties into the aspect of him trying to be there with Cassie so she wouldn't have strayed too far into the jail stuff

@sarcasticsaber8902 Год назад

The premise that I got from the trailer was: Cassie is in jail because she is going down the same criminal path her father went. Scott doesn't want that especially since he wasn't in her life for 5 years. So while bonding with her over tech, they both get sucked into the Quantum Realm. At some point Kang approaches Scott, sympathizes with him and makes him an offer to give him the time he lost with his daughter in exchange for getting Kang out of the Quantum Realm. Janet and the family go in to save them and Janet warns Scott about Kang's true nature. But Scott has this inner conflict with himself because he still wants that time with his daughter back. Would he go as far as to trust Kang? Sounds like a much better story what we got.

@esrever777 Год назад

That sounds 100% better than the actual movie. One of the best things about the Antman movies was Scott and Cassie's relationship. That being an integral part of the movie would've been so much better than the underwhelming and generic action movie we got

@watema3381 Год назад

The movies are building together into a bigger picture. That's what made Marvel, _Marvel!_ The pizazz of each movie being it's own story, yet at the same time building into a much bigger narrative. It's a shame that they've become so sloppy. Quantumania was fun in a way, but it has way too many plot holes. Written like amateurs on an unrealistic schedule.

@gregorysandy2960 Год назад

It was a sloppy ending. They already explained that it was Kang tech that pulled them into the quantum realm and the device she made was designed to simply transmit signals. No way they had the power to create a new portal, pinpoint their location in a matter of minutes and get the back. That ending was bs to the highest degree. They nerfed Antman alot in this movie too, bro was goofy for the first half of it. Whole movie he could have turned big and won most of the fights they were in. How u gonna go from fight Thanos army to a coward like that, it’s not his first time.

There was a line towards the end of the film where Kang told Scott something along the lines of “You had a chance to leave.” I spent so long after watching the film and even during a second rewatch trying to figure when he *actually* had a chance to escape the quantum realm. This theory might explain that line just like the “Our word is our bond” thing

@guccifer764 Год назад

It would make Scott’s decision to fight Kang more impactful if he was given the chance to leave too. Like, Scott has no skin in this game. He just wants to take his daughter and friends and go home. But deciding to stay and fight for people you barely know just because it’s the right thing to do cements Scott as a real hero and not just some hapless dude who gets dragged along by the Avengers. Plus, it brings him around to Cassie’s way of thinking instead of that conflict being abruptly forgotten about

Oh my gosh yes! I thought it was just me being too "attached" to the older MCU (so the og 6 Avengers, Engame era, etc) and definitely haven't been super excited for the newer phase(s). So to hear the discussion of fans going out to see the movies because they liked the characters and the stories is so validating. I feel like (and honestly I'm sure this is due to the whole post-COVID rush) we haven't had enough time to get attached to/form those connections to these characters yet and I'm sure the heavy load of "required" viewing isn't helping either. To me it feels like we barely have time to digest one story before we're thrown into another one, which again I'm sure is due in part to the the rush and whatnot, but honestly it's just frustrating and kinda disheartening as a viewer/fan/consumer.

This theory makes so much sense too with how the trailers seemed to position this movie - with lines like “you lied to me” and “we both just have to lose” feeling more relevant to a mysterio-like twist.

Forbidding to engage with the Quantum Realm without reason, instead of saying: "Hey, I accidently helped a multiverse hopping genocidal dictator rise to power, but trapped him, so maybe don't go down there and give him a way out." Or she could have been the inciting factor, since she had no opportunity to go back since Thanos happened: "I have to go back down and fix this. Help the people down there defeat Kang." But no.

I'm not joking when I say the script for quantumania looks like an essay I did in 15 minutes at 3 am the day before it was due.

It's unfortunate that Disney isn't known for releasing "Director's Cut"s of their properties.

What I thought was weird was that they didnt make a bigger deal of Kang's promise to leave their universe alone and only go after other universes. That is like the ultimate "not our problem." like the main conflict between Scott and Cassie. Like is it our job to act even if it doesn't involve us. They never had a moment where any character even considered it was an option to save themselves and their own universe at the cost of others. They then could have had Cassie convince them that they had to act for the good of all and not just themselves. Just seems like a big chance for plot conflict they just dropped.

The main reason I grew out of the MCU is because they're treating aspects of the movie like bullet points rather than making a good plot and having those aspects included. You can have inclusion, strong females, etc in a movie while ALSO having a good plot. But it seems the political part was put in first and then the plot formed around it. It's just draining and lifeless now when the movies aren't focusing on a good story.

This, to me, feels like executives making decisions above creatives head. I believe there was, like Mat suspects, a coherent and probably ok movie. But somebody higher up wanted a different ending and a different story entirely and didn't give enough time

1. it would have been really cool if they made it so janet was really working with kang 2. scott and hope shouldn't have gotten out of the quantum realm. it was meant to be 'this is your only chance, you have to go home now', but they just opened another portal, getting rid of all the danger 3. young avengers. i think the kang dynasty will have the young avengers as the heroes, and in the comics they even defeat kang

And here I thought matpat was going to make the connection of kangs technology with Shang shi's rings, the protection dome kang was creating had similar markings and style to his ten rings and puts the timeline as antman Quantumania followed by Shang shi where something "activated" the rings like a homing beacon at the end of the movie

Even the side characters felt underutilized- they introduced and established about four different characters and they had about 5 lines of dialogue each.

@jessicahogan7248 Год назад

They should have had Luis and friends on the outside trying to find Scott/ Make the tech work or take it to someone who knows how to use it etc instead of introducing us to a bunch of new unimportant characters that we'll never see again. Why make new ones that flop when you ignore preexisting ones?
