I had the exact opposite effect on Kang the Conqueror. If anything, this movie was the first one that I felt should have presented him as a legitimate threat, but ended up making him feel like that annoying returning villain in video games that keeps popping up to harass the players, when the player just wants to move on. The things he said about his experiences and how much power and influence he has, and the way he was ultimately defeated with such ease only served to give the impression of a weak wet towel of a villain. The end credits also didn't really do any better of a job, introducing other Kangs that all looked like complete jokes.

@@Us3r739 I mean that'd be a fair point, and would make sense, if that wasn't the strongest Kang. The council feared him, and banished him into the quantum realm because that's all they could do. The strongest Kang was beaten by a single Avenger already, for all his chest puffing and pompous speeches about him having killed multiple avengers, he sure was ill-prepared, careless, and got his ass handed to himself. And he was "the most feared".

[@lopeshick9607]

Majors’ Kang had such a strong screen presence and was so legitimately threatening at first that I was starting to think this would be a decent film. So you can imagine my delight by the end as he just sorta hopelessly watches as big scott fcks sht up like he can’t teleport outside and end him in a second, and how his energy blasts, which were just ATOMIZING people, just kind of pushes the main characters pretty far, oh and how the sight of ants makes him “kind of forget” to use his powers. I’m suspending my disbelief to have fun watching very small people battle for the fate of the multiverse, but please writers, at least try to make is make a bit of sense within your own context.

[@boboida1]

Definitely Majors was not the problem in this movie. And what I'm guessing is he's not dead, he'll return in Dynasty of Kang and I'm guessing he's in even a more smaller universe and he'll slowlu work his way up, which makes sense but seeing Kang on and on makes it a bit boring

[@AD-lh3jk]

They’re actually stretching the workforce to a pretty short timeframe & budget-wise thin situation right now. They’re groups of multiple contractors, not an employed situation like in some game development I’m pretty sure there are trade/industry articles covering this situation Also, to the person comparing live action CGI to Mappa, which does full animation, I gotta say the medium’s still quite different. In pure animation, you don’t have nearly the same challenges of blending/emulating with reality the way you do in live action CGI. Because visually, there’s no “grounding” that can trigger an uncanny valley experience easier and takes a viewer’s suspension of disbelief on a snap. Although being said that, anime fans do tend to have that quick reaction too when 2D is mixed with 3D, so it’s not exclusively a live action CGI thing, but it’s much easier to happen in live action

Vfx houses dont often get to negotiate revenue sharing like actors do. Lucasfilm was one of the only studios to actually pay vfx teams fairly. Its less about the vfx team slipping up and more about disney refusing to pay them their worth.

You’re too highbrow for this channel, my friend. You should start your own channel. I agree with your take for the most part.

My only issue with Kang was how he became a pushover when Scott and Hope came to fight him at the end. Dude was controlling everyone with his tech, telekinesis shit and all that, and he was DISINTEGRATING PEOPLE left right and center. Then Scott and Hope show up and, well, he can't disintegrate anyone? He can't manipulate anymore? It's like playing a fighting game and suddenly forgetting all of the inputs of the character you're playing. I mean, if it showed that his suit was running out of power or something I would understand but it did not show that, so he just became a pushover by the end. Also a nitpick I have is how often they remove their helmets. Like, can you keep them on for more than 10 seconds without taking them off? I dunno it's just super distracting for me, and also kinda sucks for the team that put time into making the costumes see that a specific and crucial part of their work is just glossed over. Edit: people for the love of God I am talking about the moment before the ants showed up for crying out loud. How difficult is it for you to understand? Holy shit you are dense. And why do you bring up the part that he needed them to get the core? What part of "fight at the end" do you not understand?

I feel like one of the main issues with Quantumania is that from the start it probably wasn't meant to be the kick-off point for the new phase, So they wanted to make a specific movie but then because they also wanted to make it more. My theory is that the original plot had Modok (with the same backstory) as the main villain, with Kang being the "shadowy mastermind behind the whole thing" revealed at the end. But then the higher ups were like, "Nah we did that with Thanos already let's have Kang be the main villain." so they just rewrote the whole script to fit the "grander phase design". Multiverse of Madness had similar issues. Originaly Wanda wasn't supposed to be the main villain. But because one of the script writers or something saw that they were building up to Wanda becoming a villain he wanted to make that movie so he fundamentally altered the movie to steal Wanda as a villain from a future movie, with no real plan on how to make Multiverse of Madness good with evil Wanda.

That's not the worst thing. Ant Man movies have for the most part been pretty self contained, with any consequences only being apparent after the movie.

I really wanted to have the spoken language be in English and as I don't live in an English speaking country, it was quite a challenge to find a suitable screening. Very surprising honestly, since Norway's English language skills in school education are some of the best in Europe. In spite of that our great and totally not infuriating Cinemas, have collectively decided to dub over every single movie they deem to be "for kids", instead of just having Norwegian subtitles. There were apparently a select few English language screenings but the last one I saw was the Sunday in January that I realised it was airing, then none for weeks. However thanks to your comment I just checked and there is a single cinema in "my area" having English screenings, yay :). It will take me 50 min (give or take) of public transport to get there, but I will take what I can get. Sadly no subtitles, be they English or Norwegian. Not so important to me but, my mom is not the most proficient at English, so I might have to whisper some translations throughout. Luckily it seems that there are only two seats sold so far and, it's the biggest screening hall in that cinema.

Honestly, every time MODOK had his mask lifted, I just couldn't help but laugh. With his mask down, he looked alright, but his goofy ass face had me laughing harder than all the jokes in the movie combined.

It got 4/10 for me. First Marvel film I wanted to walk out of

[@chrishernandez5965]

agreed. writing was lazy, cgi was mid and it was a story of convenience. they did kang bad as well, he was good until the last act. If the average viewer didn’t know who kang was you would think he’s another 1 time villain in the mcu with how weak he was

Marvel has been treading water since endgame. They have no idea where they want to take this now and half the characters people actually liked aren't even part of the MCU anymore. Marvel is just a corpse floating down a river at this point.

The fact that the video has 0 dislikes says a lot about society

Nah KZbin stopped showing dislikes. Trust that it has a LOT

The problem with the VFX in this movie was not that the quality of the artists' work is declining, it's because this entire movie was clearly shot with a "fix it in post" mentality. There's an overconfidence in the massive overworked army of artists that they didn't bother to design much of anything before they shot, so 90% of the film is just actors in front of a green/blue screen interacting with nothing. What you get is a weird, disconnected mess with poorly implemented compositing and set extension. To be fair, I think that actually kind of works for this film. It's all clearly very fantastical and you're not meant to take it seriously for the most part. Ant-Man as a series is a comedy. Whether you find it funny or not is up to taste but I'm a bit confused why anyone was expecting anything other than a comedy.

This one was so moist that the moist man himself zoomed in the camera so we could feel a bit of it up close.

Charlie's tone in any emotions he have is only one, which is so cool.

@@Ihatemyname534 the word “mid” has lost all meaning. People would say something is mid and give it a 5/10, I’ve seen people say mid is 2/10, and now you’re saying mid is 8/10. Like wtf

I don’t understand how this movie is bad? And yes. Modok did look a bit goofy but that was the ONLY ONE thing I thought was a bit meh but i LOVED THE MOVIE it was so fun to watch the main villain (kang) he gave me goose bumps every time he was on screen. And it was an exiting start to faze 5. One more thing I love how kang was in the Loki series. It’s was a good movie?

[@TheMarionick]

Imagine if Kang peaced out at the start of the third act to wait until Kang Dynasty and Modok was the final battle instead😂
