I swear Janet bothered me so much throughout this movie. Like the whole time I’m just thinking “can you NOW tell us wht the hell is going on?”

[@brianburkhardt3692]

I like the theory that in the previous ant man movies she hadn’t had the encounter with Kang, which is why she never told anybody, but that once He Who Remains was killed outside of Time in Loki it had a retroactive effect even on the main MCU timeline, making it so that Janet had met a Kang who was now in the Quantum Realm. So while she does hide things in this movie, she wasn’t hiding it in the last movie because it hadn’t happened.

[@pegasusj4655]

@@brianburkhardt3692 correct if I’m wrong but she didn’t show up in last movie til the end from the quantum realm right? But at some point you would think btwn then and getting sucked into the quantum realm you would grant us the courtesy of saying “hey there’s timeline destroying maniac in there should probably leave it alone”

[@rein7447]

@@pegasusj4655 Exactly. Instead she decides to keep quiet about it and try and act all mysterious, as if telling people there is a threat worse than Thanos that cannot escape the Quantum Realm would make things worse. They literally just had to leave him there and he'd die of old age eventually.

[@brianburkhardt3692]

@@pegasusj4655 yeah, she gets saved from the Quantum Realm in probably the last third of the movie (it’s not the very end, but it is toward the end). But that’s before Endgame and the time Heist when 2012 Loki escapes, setting in motion the events of Loki and removal of He Who Remains. So, going by that theory, she didn’t know about Kang until after being saved and the events of Endgame. She wasn’t against going back into the QR at the end of Ant Man & The Wasp to collect particles for Ghost. It could be that it wasn’t deep enough to warrant her worrying, or it could be that at that point she had no reason to worry. He Who Remains says that he has been keeping the other Kangs from appearing in the sacred (main MCU) timeline. So if that were true, then the outcast Kang and the rest of the council in this movie didn’t exist. Once he was killed by Sylvie, the other Kangs popped into existence at all points in time they would have been had HWR not pruned their existence. So it’s only after his death that Janet meeting a Kang can even happen, therefor it is almost certain that she had not met a Kang in the previous movie, and only after Loki does she retroactively have met him and have reason to worry about him finding her again.

[@mr.stuffdoer8483]

I mean… I felt they did a decent job making it feel like she was waiting for them to have a bit of breathing room to discuss it. It’s not like the movie waited that long.

100% agreed. The issues i have with this film can be summed up with, it feels like an Ant-Man filmed ashamed to just be an Ant-Man film. They cut most of the elements that worked and people enjoyed in the first two, just to try and tell such a big and grand story on par with The Avengers films (which the director even said he wanted to do). Ant-Man 1 and even 2 by a lot of people were loved for what they were, and that didn't need to be changed

[@LincolnDWard]

I thought the "great shame," in Eric's words, that Janet is facing was the fact that she helped Kang regain his suit, which in turn allowed him to build his Quantum Realm kingdom.

[@SpikeRockit]

She also straight up abandoned all those people the first chance she got

[@paulkondon]

It's no coincidence that Kang's suit looks like Doctor Doom. In the comics he originated in the future as a scientist (relayed by He Who Remains) who discovers Doom tech, and uses it to time travel. He believes he is a descendant of both Victor von Doom and Nathaniel Richards (his namesake, and son of Reed and Sue).

[@warrust]

[@Deadpixeleditz-mh2pn]

[@joeskittlesman]

The thing that Janet was so ashamed of was that she helped Kang get his suit and tech back. On some level she is responsible for him being able to conquer and terrorise the quantum realm. And then she left, knowing what he was still doing to people down there.

[@buildaggedonarmanaziie4462]

People say that Kang in Quantumania was underwhelming, and I could see that the first part, but in reality Kang is weakened in this film. A lot of people don't really understand that. Kang is weakened because he is in the Quantumn Realm. Now, if Kang was outside of the Quantumn Realm and had access to time, then Kang would have been more capable and more powerful like traveling through time, manipulating time, and summoning any weapon from any point in time just like in the comics. And I liked how they did this because it proves that a weak Kang, or even the weakest Kang, can be a big threat, like how Kang conquered the Quantumn Realm, like a whole dimension basically, a weakened Kang conquered a whole dimension. It just goes to show the capability of Kang, and I hope that they can expand on this Kang stuff like every Kang after the one in Quantumania will be stronger and stronger just showing the danger of Kang as a whole.

[@daviemeister3355]

Finally, someone who understands! Is this movie perfect and qualified to be a masterpiece? Probably not. However, people don’t seem to understand how characters like Kang, Ironman, Doctor Doom, etc. archetypes work. The tech-based characters abilities can allow them to jump tiers depending on the amount of preparation time and resources that they have. Their whole shtick with these types of characters is that their successes and victories are very dependent on their prep time, the amount of technological resources they have, etc. Iron man’s standard armour for example, wouldnt stand a chance against the hulk. However, with Hulkbuster, he is able to hold his own against the Hulk, even if he isn’t able to beat him. Doctor Doom with prep time and resources, has often absorbed the powers of other beings in the comics. This is a Kang who was banished, meaning that he had to be stripped of all the actual important technology. After all, what fool would banish and seal someone while giving them all the resources they need to escape? Plus as you said, its more cooler to realize that this is what Kang could do, with the limited amount of resources he had access to. Imagine if he had access to ALL and I mean, ALL his resources. THAT would be Kang at his most dangerous. I know the movie isnt perfect but why dont people seem to understand this? The fact that Ant man could solo a heavily handicapped Kang, is actually an impressive feat for Ant Man and not a disappointing record for Kang. Ant man is always severely underestimated by the audience themselves. Why is it to unfathomable that Ant Man could hold his own like that in the movie? In the comics, he has grown big enough to enter a different dimension if I recall correctly. He is just as much of a threat as Thor or the Hulk. So we shouldnt even be saying, “How could ant man of all people beat Kang”. Instead we should be saying, “Finally, the movie shows just how OP and Hax and Busted Ant man’s abilities can be”.

[@ThatShyGuyMatt]

I just feel like his acting skills seem kinda crappy.

[@daviemeister3355]

@@ThatShyGuyMatt I mean, if that’s how you feel then that’s perfectly fine. Perhaps with a better script and writing and opportunity for greater range, he might get to shine a little bit more. So long as people at least understand what we mean when we say this isn’t Kang’s absolute best, then thats fine.

[@destructor0556]

Yes! Someone else gets it, the first time I saw the movie I thought the same thing immediately, this is like the weakest most nerfed version of Kang, and it still gave ant man a run for his money. I also like Kang in the movie, maybe is not the best performance but I still like it, I really like characters that can manipulate time and/or space to such extent for their own purposes, I get such like Rich Sanchez vibes from Kang, and the futility and naivety of the rest of the characters that interact with him, I love it XD

[@bitteroldjoe]

The ending is suss as hell with the amount of green and purple (Kang colors) after their return. The cake, the balloons... I wouldn't be surprised if he was dumped someplace like when Loki had to relive it over and over.

[@RB_Eldritch]

Something occurred to me when i watched this, He Who Remains said if he died another version of him would end up right back there, and i think this version of Kang was going to be the new iteration of He Who Remains, and with him dead there will be no Kang to stop the Multiversal War, Antman and Wasp accidentally killed the only "good" Kang

[@brianburkhardt3692]

Interesting. This Kang was also an outcast, not working with the council in a similar way to He Who Remains. Maybe he’s like a less successful version who instead of going on to stop the others from existing he failed and was cast out.

[@themultiverseproductions8492]

No. This is the main Kang. He isn't dead.

[@thedarkfloyd7517]

I think it actually was he who remains himself and not just a version of him. That would be an epic twist!

[@TomVCunningham]

I had this thought too.

[@iCyberDev]

@@TomVCunningham im leaning more towards the idea that this IS Kang the Conqueror's base form and he didnt want to work with hte dynasty, but unlike he who remains, he didn't want to keep a tight lid on a universe but to control all of it and nuke it. But what i think is interesting is that this kang is stuck in a probability storm... maybe when he's able to finally come to terms with all the other probability kangs of himself, the ONLY ONE who survives it is the "ultimate kang the conqueror" who has "beat all the odds" and is the real threat since he's lived against all other iterations and came out on top, like a simulation, and i think what Eric Vauss said about antman being stuck in a probability storm with kang right now also is interesting maybe, him and hope never got out of the quantum world, and they're stuck in that simulation loop or whatever until one of them breaks out the other.

[@pmpowalisz]

Janet did do something she felt great shame for, she helped Kane fix his pod. Even after she stopped him from escaping he still had his suit which brought hardship on everyone down there.

[@CodedHumor]

The part I love best is the ending, you see purple and green hints everywhere at the party and when he is walking, and when he panics its around the time a background character walks past him a second time! Its like a timeline hiccup from Kang dying

I mean, the benefit of us having touch the multiverse in the MCU (specifically in Far From Home) is that we’ve seen that the same character doesn’t always have to look alike, and can be played by different actors - so Majors can be recast. The downside is that that after-credits scene certainly implied that the majority of them look like him…

I don't hate this film as much as some people do - yeah the CGI kinda wack and it's not a typical Ant Man film, but it's still got the humour and I think Kang was well portrayed. My biggest issue with it was that they had the perfect opportunity to let Hope and Scott pass the torch and *actually* die/get stuck, and that would've made the film stick a good bit more imo.

[@raulportela3039]

I know I'm in the vast minority, but this is my favorite post credit scene of the MCU. Not only is it a cool and sinister set up that's ripped straight from the splash page, but I find it amazing that this whole scene is just one actor getting to do all the roles

[@xanthelinhs2143]

Some people think that ending scene with Scott might not be real because there's a heavy use of the color Purple throughout it, a bunch of people wearing vibrant purple shirts, purple balloons etc. Probably a stretch, but that with the brief moment where Scott wonders if he really won makes me think maybe there's something there.

Thanks for this reaction. Important things to keep track of going forward in THE MULTIVERSE SAGA: 1.

In the 31st-century, Nathaniel Richards discovered (not invented) the Space-Time Platform of the most dangerous person ever to walk the earth, Victor Von Doom. We have seen this devise, or advanced versions of it, used repeatedly throughout THE MULTIVERSE SAGA: LOKI SE01, it is used by both the TVA and by He-Who-Remains. In DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS, Earth-838 Reed Richards enters the Illuminati Hall by means of it (confirmed by writer Michael Waldron as being Doom's invention). At the end of QUANTUMANIA, we see all Kang-variants using this device. Therefore, all of the Kangs owe their claim to fame to Doctor Doom. 4. It is very likely that Doom will discover that future descendent of his hated enemy, Reed Richards, is dominating the Multiverse by means of his greatest invention. This will be intolerable for Doom. He will probably discover this from the Loki-variant who is seeking a way to stop all the Kangs. Loki will discover the prime-Kang Nathaniel Richards and his 31st-century find of Doom time-travel tech, and will seek Doom out by means of the TVA. This is likely how Doom learns about the Kangs. 5. Upon learning about the Kangs and their transtemporal, Multiversal dynastic reign, Doom will spend all his thought into preparing to usurp their rule. The Kangs become his greatest priority. This explains Doom's absence during the Battle of NY, the Battle of Sokovia, the Battle for Earth on the Hudson Valley, NY, the Emergence of the Celestial Tiamut, and the secret invasion of the Skrulls. 6. In addition to being an almost unmatched scientific and technological genius, Doom is also a powerful and learned sorcerer, the greatest student of Cogliostro. His mother Cynthia was a witch. Therefore Doom knows well of the Darkhold and its prophecy regarding the Scarlet Witch. 7. To destroy the Dynasty of Kangs, Doom will use his Space-Time Platform to prevent Wanda Maximoff's suicide at Wundagor. 8. Doom will convince and use Wanda to obliterate every Kang in every universe as easily as she did to every Darkhold. 9. Dispatching the Kangs will trigger the Final Wave of Incursions annihilating the Multiverse. But Doom, Strange, and Wanda create Battleworld from salvaged pieces of dead universes, and Doom becomes God for AVENGERS SECRET WARS. Probably.

I really hope y'all react to Extraction 2! I would love to see Eric's reaction to that insanely awesome one shot sequence!

[@Dr.HooWho]

That no from outside was perfect

[@Mark_E_M]

Hey Eric...I thought that hand gesture starting at 01:45 was reserved for Agents of SHIELD only!!! LOL

[@EggBoi_8]

40:39 I have to say. I actually like the change with Modok. Not the best by any means but I thought it was a nice twist. Little stretched in places ;) but still fun.

[@lavagurl0541]

For me personally, I assumed she and Kang had been a thing. It made sense to me, they spent a bunch of time together, he’s pissed at her, she came back alone, and she didn’t wanna say anything. Obviously, she wouldn’t want her family to know she caught feelings for a guy who’s slaughtered trillions and destroyed entire timelines and universes. And he was so angry at her cause she betrayed him after he had gained…some sort of feelings for her, at least enough to promise to make an exception for her universe to whatever his goal was. Then they made it more obvious her and Murray were a thing and I was…sadly disappointed😀🫠🫠. I feel like her and Kang would’ve been much better plotwise

[@brianburkhardt3692]

There’s a theory that up until the version of Kang in season 1 of Loki (He Who Remains) was killed, the events of Janet in the quantum realm were different. She hadn’t met a Kang variant because HWR wasn’t letting any others exist. Then once he died the variants immediately came into points in time (even the main timeline) where they had not been before. This changed Janets past so that now she had met with a Kang and all the background from this movie. She didn’t know about him in the last movie, she knew at the start of this but didn’t know that Hank and Cassie were contacting the Quantum Realm. As soon as she finds out she wants them to stop.

[@B3llaBambin4]

25:27 the little Muttley laugh 😆🤣

[@hazri8758]

Sorry but that bald Kang at the credit scene looks a lot like Didier Drogba 😂

[@op_meg]

is that mouse on your table Baskin Robbins merch? lol

[@10blackguys66]

I’ve been waiting nearly a decade for this reaction

[@JimmieRayGiboney]

1:07:07 Mark! We finally succumbed to the pressure of going paperless with our checking account. How many celebrities have done the same? 🤔 Or does a paper check still make sense for them because out of their pay is deducted the pay for their management, et cetera. Seeing it in print could help reduce embezzlement? 🤔

[@Ghost8386]

I enjoyed Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania.' I loved Alice in Wonderland, Barbarella, Dune, Flash Gordon, Heavy Metal, Honey, I Shrunk the Kid, Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, Star Wars, Thor: Ragnarok, and The Wizard of Oz, influences in Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania. Since 1987 I have been a fan of Ant-Man. Since 1993, I have also been a fan of Kang the Conqueror.

[@GamerChris64]

"Kraven" fuckin killed me, that was just really funny to me

[@DUBSandChubb]

that MCU intro Eric and Calvin did together proved Aaron just doesn't ever stop talking gollllllllllllllllllyy

[@a.r.t.8651]

everything going as the kangs want it, in the ending restaurant scene you can see the purple and green colors of kang all around scott, pretty eerie

[@JimmieRayGiboney]

43:49 Mark! That was a complete helmet, not just a mere mask! 🙄

[@parsman9914]

I'm glad you guys enjoyed it. So did I.

[@ginnylea5023]

modok is giving george lopez from sharkboy and lavagirl and i cant stop seeing it

[@JimmieRayGiboney]

5.9K Thumbs Up + Mine! 👍 You're welcome, and thanks! ☺️ Notes: Just as entertaining as the first time! 🤣

[@JimmieRayGiboney]

59:04 Mark! Janet Pym: "I took an arrow to my left breast because of some archer! I took up smoking and dancing as a teenager because I heard music from the sky! I remember some school students in a rough school, but I was their teacher! One time, I sang atop a piano! For a while, I was a cat, and I licked myself! I have other memories of past lives! So, maybe I do have PTSD?"

[@ju12thdr]

Great reaction, I love this movie , except Janet definitely agree with Eric

[@2btobi835]

it’s also a blue face shield in the comics i believe

[@JimmieRayGiboney]

1:14:45 Mark! Eric, it was worse than that! He was flushed! 😮

[@JimmieRayGiboney]

51:29 Mark! Huh? Hmm. But there's that funny animated cartoon series about "The Avengers" with a funny MODOC in it! I guess now that they would be dismissive of it, too! 😮 Then what about a "LEGO" version? 🤔

[@whoeverthisguyis0826]

I think I'm part of the few people on the planet who actually enjoys this movie 😅

[@WFKGW]

🤝🏻🤝🏻🫡fellow lover of this film

[@edwardguest1404]

I liked it as well

[@MellyMelon1331]

@@BeeruzChrysler I never understood the issue people had with ants "defeating" Kang. They were Ants that Hank had already made to be super geniuses likely on his own level, and then they had their minds advanced 1000s and 1000s of years in a moment. Their minds were likely close to Kang's if not on par, so of course the tech they built themselves would give Kang a challenge, especially when overwhelmed. And then yeah he made a mistake making Modok as strong as he was, cause he counted on Modok being too scared to ever fight him

[@itsmekaustav77]

I doubt ants defeating Kang was an issue for even one percent of the people who didn't like this movie, it was probably the 2 hour slog of ugly CGI and a story with no stakes and surprisingly no structure or meaningful character arc that irritated people.

[@MrTGamer_]

@@MellyMelon1331people always just seem to ignore that plot detail because it was “just ants” that defeated him 🙄. Barely even “defeated” him either. Kang was still easily well enough to go 1v1 against Scott after that

[@henrydollar792]

You guys gotta do the new Black Mirror season, I recently rewatched your reaction to White Christmas and I forgot how funny it was watching Aaron fight Eric and Calvin over the ending. Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with Rats. And rats make me crazy.

[@JimmieRayGiboney]

1:17:10 Mark! Hmm. What others do when I can't see them is not what I think about when I see them in a movie or series episodes. 🤔 🤷‍♂️

[@nvp8191]

This M.O.D.O.K look like him from the comic books but the one in agents of shield show is more like the attitude and was more dangerous.

[@rohanrodrigues7115]

There was no modok in agents of shield. And besides, modok was always a joke character in the comics, so nothing different in the movie

[@billystokes3917]

I don't remember there ever being a Modok in Agents of Shield.

[@FocusedThronee]

I loved this movie so much

[@aubryellaotero1064]

The Ryan Bergara and Marielle cameo was the wildest thing about this movie lmfao

[@tigerxfang]

the marvel intro singalong was the best thing ever created
