What did you think of Quantumania!!?

[@SpammytheHedgehog]

And I thought Marvel Phase 4 was bad.

[@FosterBaba]

Im wonder if Kang from Quantumania was the same from Loki.

[@coolnerdlll6053]

@@FosterBaba He's not. They're both variants just like the army in the mid-credits scene.

[@FosterBaba]

@@coolnerdlll6053 But the backstory that Janet saw sounds just like what “he who remains” claims he did. Destroy countless timelines until he was the only Kang. But this time, he lost the battle against the others so he couldn’t set up the master timeline again. The after credits references the TVA as well. It would explain why all the other Kang’s turned on him. He kept saying time works differently for him. What if every Kang knows his whole timeline, and remembers being betrayed in the first Kang war, and came back after Loki and Silvie killed HWR Kang at the end of time.

[@FosterBaba]

Im certain that’s the same Kang! I just rewatched his scenes from Loki. He said he was coming back, reincarnated. They’re both the only ones who were destroying entire timelines, both wanted to stop all the other variants

[@rachelcarr479]

Believe it or not, I worked on this film and yes a lot of the backgrounds were blue screen, as are most of the marvel films, but you might be surprised as to how much of the sets were actually made - with Jentora and the ‘drink the ooze’ scene, most of the huts were actually there and then the ‘ships’ were sculpted full-size and then animated. The ‘cantina’ scene again, it was an enormous set and the only bit that were vfx was the background. When they said the man looked like broccoli, he spent about 5 hours in prosthetics to become ‘broccoli man’ and then all of the others spent nearly as log!

[@MGD07524]

[@coolnerdlll6053]

The next time I watch Quantumania, I will definitely check the credits for your name. That's awesome.

[@stevenbrodie404]

I also found the "arrogance was his downfall" trope a bit overused in this one. BUT, when Kang got his suit back and didn't just flick Janet out of the way and leave, I thought it was more because he had actually grown to genuinely like her. That just added a whole other interesting layer to his character; he's willing to kill timelines, but will still save his "friends"

[@yolandag8436]

True...he even mentions something like that when he hits modok something about he preferred working with Janet.

[@CyGea]

The "arrogance was his downfall" trope...is Kang. Beside Doom (who actually backs up his arrogance), there isn't a more arrogant being in Marvel. And it always leads to his downfall.

[@rossgordanier]

I think the Kang we get in this movie wasn't the scariest but rather he was the most unstable. He went against the others. Tried to do something he wasn't supposed to do.

[@MikeyBFreedom]

It’s coming

[@logang.daitch8786]

Those "big 3" Kangs you were talking about are actually specific Kangs from the comics. The "wizard" one is Immortus, the most powerful version of Kang (who is evil as opposed to He Who Remains). The "tech" one is either Iron Lad or Silver Centurion. And the "Egyptian" one is Rama Tut, the very first appearance of Kang (from the Fantastic Four comics, before he debuted later in the Avengers as Kang the Conqueror)

[@MiloMurphysLaw]

Isn’t Iron Lad supposed to be a kid? Like, he’s in the Young Avengers, right?

[@logang.daitch8786]

@@MiloMurphysLaw he's a teenager. It looks like in the credit scene that Jonathan Majors had some de-aging done for that version, so wouldn't surprise me if the movies made the character in his early 20s

[@leonglitch]

​@@logang.daitch8786 But isn't Iron lad supposed to be the good kang?

[@logang.daitch8786]

@@leonglitch my guess is that he'll start off as bad and become disillusioned, leading him to go against the rest of his brethren

[@bicokun]

Could also be the Iron Prince, an alternate version of Iron Lad who ended up embracing his role as Kang. It could set up a great dynamic with the younger Iron Lad as who he could grow into if he makes the wrong choice.

[@coolnerdlll6053]

I saw it last night. It's not quite a top-tier MCU movie, but I had a total blast. All I wanted was two hours of the characters making jokes in a creative CGI world and that's exactly what I got.

[@thetoybox4333]

Same here!

[@Knox1087]

Kind of how I felt. I'm never gonna act like it's a top 10 MCU flick, but it's far from bottom tier

[@L16htW4rr10r]

And it was also have some of its brutal, serious moment too that I enjoy so much. So much bloody death...

[@Lokear]

Exactly! It's far from the best, but it's better than most of the Phase 4 titles were. I'd put it around the same level as Guardians Vol. 2 personally, maybe just above it.

[@davidjsanders76]

I also enjoyed it a lot. It did exactly what it needed to do

[@tigerdean2209]

Janet wasn’t concerned at all in the end credit scene of AntMan and the Wasp. She sends Scott inside and preps the van without hesitation. Huge plot point for end game and they just threw it to the side. Anyone else notice this?

[@Lokear]

I agree with the New Rockstars take: Janet was fine with sending him in for a few seconds to a specific spot, possibly far away from Kang's reach. Then, when they got blipped, Scott went into a time vortex by mistake, which could also have helped him evade Kang. Still, if that's how it fits in, they should've explained it in-universe.

[@tigerdean2209]

@@Lokear I don’t mind that take but in Quantumania she didn’t even want to talk about and freaked out at even the mentioning of it.

[@davidjsanders76]

Sending a person to a specific layer (probably one that is above Kang's) is different than sending a signal to map all the layers. A person can't be traced back to origin, unless you know where to look as they enter. A signal that is sustained and probing deeper and wider was going to draw attention. That was the problem.

[@vaapad1HS]

My take on it is that at the time they send Scott inside, Kang the conqueror doesn't exist in the Quantum Realm yet, as Endgame hasn't happened, therefore Loki hasn't been captured by the TVA, therefore the Sacred Timeline is still intact and the only Kang that exists is He Who Remains. When He Who Remains is killed, the multiverse begins to exist once again, and Janet sort of retroactively has these experiences with Kang filled in. Time travel messes with story continuity and now my head hurts lol

[@ARIEZKAGE]

@@vaapad1HS I second this take. That explains why the very first scene shows Kang crash landing into Janet’s camp. Originally Janet is just alone, but the stuff with the One Who Remains actually effects the timeline of the MCU as we know it. Maybe later on it’ll be explained (like in Loki s2 where they start hunting down Kangs that randomly pop up across the multiverse)

[@macmay3042]

See, I liked what they did with Cassie for several reasons. The main one being, no progression, not even a character arc, should be just a straight line. I like that his relationship with his daughter is the most important thing in the world to him, and partially for his fault and partially not, it's gotten rocky. He had a set-back; there is more work to do. Their relationship is evolving and that's not just a line from "we were basically great" to "now we're even better." I think it's a good reminder that parents don't just completely control their kids, that a parents wanting to have a good relationship with their kid doesn't mean the kid wants all the same things they do. Also when he talked about all the missed birthdays I had thought he meant jail, but you're right, Quantum zone was another.

[@Caffeinated_Firefly]

I mean she is also now a teenager, almost a young adult. Of course, she's not gonna idealize her father anymore. Besides they are setting her up to be Stature.

[@cicojr8743]

57:49 It seemed pretty clear to me that the reason why the council of Kangs saw Kang Prime’s death as noteworthy was that it meant that the Avengers were now getting familiar with the multiverse, so much so that they killed a Kang, which now threatens the council’s hold over their respective universes.

[@kacieclarke7081]

I actually loved Cassie’s character. I have felt so much like her in the past with fighting the injustices and all of the world problems. She has a big heart and just wants to help people. In her head, her dad has saved the world so why can’t he help the people that he saved? All that to say is I get it.

[@ben66562]

"Her dad has saved the world so why can't he help the people he saved" great pointttt

[@musicaladventure5]

@A.S. i mean, i think her being smart makes sense. she now has 2 grandparents who are genius, as well as a step mom who is. i don't know if it's that unbelievable that she could have been taught some stuff. i also didn't really find her annoying, she just seemed frustrated that her dad wasn't doing more with his abilities (which yeah, maybe she could be a bit more understanding to him, but character flaws are a thing.) But, to each their own I suppose. :)

[@CaptainRiterraSmith]

Well, Scott is responsible for the time heist idea and for 2012 Loki escaping in Endgame. It's sort of perfect that after the events of the Loki series, Kang would run into Ant Man and co next. They even had Mobius and Loki tracking a Kang variant in the post credits.

[@jessicastrike5640]

I watches it opening night and I cannot help but wonder why this film ended the way it did. Scott and Hope actually beat Kang and escape?! The stakes felt so high, I thought it was going to be a really powerful sacrifice that even if they didn’t die they were going to be stuck in the quantum realm until Cassie or Shang Chi or Captain Marvel or whoever comes to rescue them. This decision has really damaged the potential future stakes for Kang Dynasty now, we’ve already seen Kang lose to Antman and Wasp. I really expected to come out with an Infinity War esque feeling after watching Kang actually succeed and the mid/post credit scenes did not do enough heavy lifting on that Also why was Scott doing the opening narration? That would have been perfect for Luis to do

[@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460]

100% agree, Jessica!!!!! You expressed how I felt completely.

[@davidjsanders76]

They beat one Kang, and just barely. That was the point - to show how tough a single Kang is and then in the post-credit show you thousands of them, which is setting up the next Saga. I do wish Luis would have done a recap in a post-credit scene, but the bookending of Scott and his paranoia about whether he doomed everyone in the end was perfect. I thoroughly enjoyed this and thought it did its job well, both as an Ant-Man film and as the start of Phase 5.

[@DarthAndylus]

Yep I agree. I also feel like without the end credit scenes this movie really makes Kang seem like a loser haha despite everyone being so afraid of him.

[@lukasart3951]

@@davidjsanders76 But they whooped Kang, he was not barely defeated. He had an empire worth of resources and Ant Man beat him.

[@KeeganPlays]

@@lukasart3951 Except that he really was barely defeated. He lost because he had to fight hundreds of man-sized (and larger) ants, which he was close to winning against, but was then attacked by MODOK, which he still survived. Then he got into a fist fight with AntMan, which he won, and only lost because he had no long range attacks against someone who did. I agree that its weird that he lost with the resources he had (He had thousands of army members, several ships, and laser defense mechanisms, and all of that was gone from just the main five and their cavalry of randoms; Even for me thats a bit of a stretch), but it still was not an easy battle for team Ant Man. Had MODOK, the ants, or Hope not been there, it would have been an easy victory for Kang, and even with all of these attackers, he was still close to winning. So, TLDR, I get that his empire worth of resources kinda just vanished into thin air, but even with that conveniently happening, team Ant Man barely won with all the things they had. So I would say, myself, that he was barely defeated. (Sorry for the long paragraphs XD)

[@DewitNow]

I honestly thought that dog at the end of the film was going to speak to Scott because he drank the quantum goo.

[@BlakeLeasure]

The versatility of Jonathan Majors is going to be INSANE come Avengers: Secret Wars. The end credit scene where the three Kang’s come together really put into perspective his acting abilities. So versatile!

[@kizhaz5092]

When Cassy escaped from the storm troopers within the building I realised the halls looked similar to the TVA and I spent the remainder of the movie wondering if this was goning to be the origin point of the TVA's existance

[@sihly_me9386]

I had a very similar epiphany when I saw what I think was some flashback scene with Kang, and the camera panned over to his civilization which looked suspiciously close to the landscape of the TVA in that one scene in Loki where they look out a window and see the entirety of the TVA. Also Mobius says that time works differently in the TVA, just like how the Quantum Realm is disassociated from time and space, so I asked myself, "Does Loki and the TVA take place in a section of the Quantum Realm that Ant-Man just didn't stumble open?" It would also makes sense because Kang has now taken over the TVA.

[@_thunderbird]

I had the same thought! Even while watching this video I was like wait a minute is the TVA in the quantum realm? Then not even 5 seconds later Ben asked the same 😂

[@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460]

I thought the same thing. In fact, I mentally flashed back to something He Who Remains said about being alone in that Citadel at the End of Time for so long. Then I thought, if Kang the Conqueror was just shrunk down to an unknown level of the Quantum Realm, perhaps he then creates the TVA from there and decides to end the coming multiversal war a different way. Then, as dangerous as he was, he's also strategic. And over time, being alone for millennia, he became *He Who Remains.* Then, when Sylvie kills him, it all starts over again and he is *Kang the Conqueror.*

[@lukasart3951]

This Kang definitely had a lot in common with he who remains. Maybe the same guy? The TVA has got to be in the Quantum realm. The two places are both described as out side of time and space.

[@fightingfaerie]

Several points seeing different architecture and layout of the city, and some of the technology and designs kept making think of the TVA

[@themysticcuber992]

I have one particular question. If darren was there, and he knew how to build a version of the pym particles, why didn't he tell Kang?

[@KreemyXxKIWIxX]

The yellow-jacket suit fuel wasn't the same as the pym particles, similar but not the same

[@themysticcuber992]

@@KreemyXxKIWIxX I know, but if they were similar, they would have still done the same job.

[@KreemyXxKIWIxX]

@@themysticcuber992 Probably because the pym particles are what made kangs battery big, so they needed specifically pym particles to size it back down from a molecular structure

[@themysticcuber992]

@@KreemyXxKIWIxX But honestly, all they did was shrink it, after using Pym particles to shrink, you could have used darrens particles to expand. In this regard, then in the first ant man, after darren was shrunk by scott in the final battle, darren wouldn't have been able to enlarge with his own particles, which is what happened.

[@mynamedontmatter4796]

Maybe the resources needed for the shrinking tech wasnt available in the quantum realm or even darren doesnt fully remember the formula since his mind was affected by it

[@gideonplays814]

27:15 it's important to recognize that Kang had a small fraction of his whole power because he was trapped in the quantum realm. Outside of the quantum realm, he'd be a handful.

[@soccerruben1]

All the more excited to see how much damage Kang and its variants would do in latter phases.

[@chancellorcheems2110]

3:22 I actually love that he said that! In the ultimate comics Captian America told Peter "are you kidding? You took a bullet without even hesitating. When you grow up, you're going to be the best out of ALL of us."

[@thetoybox4333]

Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantummania is a great movie! It is Fun, action packed and Jonathan majors absolutely kills it as Kang!!

[@MGD07524]

[@kierandougall]

Cannot understand why the “critics” have been so harsh on it. I bloody loved it and I’m so excited for Kang going forward!

[@drewmoeller7838]

It's because this was honestly a darker Ant man film, and there was a wasted character in the film that went nowhere, but I thought the film was awesome. Honestly, ant man 2 is the inferior film, and I've been thinking that for a while.

[@imouto4hire]

Because it's a terribly written CGI mess.

[@soccerruben1]

@Matt Even if that were the case, I argue it doesn’t deserve to be labeled as a low-level tier movie. It’s way better than most of phase 4 movies (excluding Spider-man:NWH). Even if it has its flaws, I think there were good stuff there too, I think KZbinr FilmSpeaks did a breakdown on what were those good things were.

[@nekukurora197]

I think it's more a politics thing, a lot of the people I see bitching about it are the same people who complain about "woke" stuff

[@TheEternalPheonix]

It’s because the critics are noobs.

[@farah_lynn]

Easily my favorite easter egg was Ryan Bergara and his wife at the beginning of the film! There were a few things in this film I could nit pick but overall I thought this was a really good film, had great time watching it

[@soccerruben1]

Seeing Ryan Bergara there was great! I hope Marvel Studios get Erik Voss to be in a cameo in a future MCU project.

[@dracolegend8523]

I saw it and I was actually surprised at how much I enjoyed it. Wasn’t the best Mcu movie but it was better than most of phase 4 and a decent way to kick off phase 5

[@MikeyBFreedom]

Agreed

[@paraschauhan1603]

You know, I'm surprised no one pointed this out, but Kang literally, physically stomped on Scott with his foot. Ant? Boot? Anyone?

[@johnmarstondancing3745]

I saw something that changed my view going into it, the movie is to set up the fact that Scott and the ant family know about kang so when he eventually shows up as the big bad, someone already knows the basics to fill everyone in, and while I’m sure Loki will show up on the future, Scott is the main anchor for all the current timeline hero’s on kang related issues

[@GayLitesFTW]

My headcanon of why Kang can’t “invent” pym particles was because they can’t be synthesized in the quantum realm.

[@user-xz2qo2tv7p]

I think the quantum realm just has different rules and capabilities. Maybe they can’t invent Pim particles because they don’t have the resources to make it. It’s a different world. I was surprised at how similar it was to our world and felt like it should have been even more different. Also regarding the Cassie storyline, I think there is something to be said about her becoming a teenager and that playing a role in her relationship with her father. I think they could have explored that more because then it would make sense how he does not know about her life.

[@sethcole9154]

I believe the first time he was "overconfident", he stuck around because he valued Janet that much, not that he felt safe.

[@housemoney2143]

On the note of the pym particles thing……he has Darren as his lap dog and Darren knows the formula sooooo I just assumed it was like a quantum realm thing that pym particles must only be able to be created on earth or at least in “our” realm.

[@michikade02]

I was sitting here watching the movie thinking back how when the MCU started 15 years ago it was intentionally grounded in reality, and now we have we have MODOK.

[@brightwolfz]

I think the main Kang from the movie isn't necessarily the "scariest" one as the mid-credits made it very clear that all the Kangs are a threat. It seems that the other Kangs banished this one because he is actually one of most good of the evil Kangs. He knows that the war will end with the end of the multiverse, so he was set on destroying their timelines to protect the multiverse from collapsing (at least that is what he said in the movie). He was banished before he could finish the job as the multiverse is extremely big. We know one of him ends up in charge of the TVA, and it would feel weird to get rid of the conqueror version so early, so I wonder if he runs the TVA in Loki S2 since it could take place after Ant-Man 3 and the TVA kind of do what the ant-man Kang was trying to do in a sense.

[@dramaturge231]

Day 57 million of asking them why it’s called the towel section. 😂

[@charlottemyates629]

I think the implication is not thar this Kang is the worse one but he was the one who opposed the other Kangs and kept them from doing their multiversal conquering. With his timeliness pruning in the TVA was preventing the other Kangs from ever existing and now that he is gone they can continue to conquer and grow unimpeded

[@seanhodgkins821]

I actually really enjoyed this movie. It was very entertaining the visuals other than modok were great and Kang was a brilliant villain. I thought the family aspect was doing well and it would've been insane if antman died at the end to trap Kang

[@masonhackler2883]

Don’t forget how the mcu started, by teasing characters and following up with them later. Don’t expect everyone to show back up in the next movie

[@jaccokoet3888]

In The final battle, the sounds definitely gave the feeling that kang was all powerful. With his punches, they put in ground shattering sounds, but with Scot’s. They were just normal punch sounds. The contrast made kang seem soo powerful

[@darkrift22]

I loved Quantumania! Ant-Man is my favorite character and this movie was so funny and a cool sci-fi adventure. Kang was incredible also!

[@LordofBroccoli]

After sticking with the MCU through the Infinity Stone Saga, Phase 4 left me very disappointed. It was clear Disney rushed into production without thinking about what they actually wanted to do, solidified even more by Phase 4's abrupt ending and lack of proper finale. Quantumania is following the same footsteps - a mediocre flick that exists solely to set up other MCU flicks. Phase 1-3 actually had good films, it wasn't just about setting up the next Avengers. But Phase 4, and thus far Phase 5, feels like little more than set up for the sake of set up - and a buttload of cash. I hope others can enjoy the MCU moving forward, but for me, this is where the road stops for me. I'll probably check back on what came out once the Phase comes to an end, and I'll still go and see GotG 3, but other than that, I'm not wasting anymore money in theaters on this mediocrity. I pused through Phase 4, hoping the quality would get better - and it never did.

[@adamrabe3105]

I think that Ben hit it on the head. When you are thinking there is going to be a continuous setup for a huge story, some of the recent MCU films are not as good. When you look at movies like Quantumania for an "Ant-Man" movie, then the enjoyment level goes way up. Sometimes knowing all of what is upcoming takes some of the surprise out of things because it's like, oh there is a sequel of this one coming out, so the stakes aren't quite that high.

[@twilightdream]

I agree

[@abdelrahmanelnajar9639]

I couldn't stop thinking about Chidi every time he appeared on the screen! The Good Place is my favorite!

[@austinmccormick8952]

I love how Scott just elects to ignore his Troublesome thoughts in favor of having a good time with his family

[@DominicCisalowicz]

I just saw the film today, and I loved it. I think after Infinity War and Endgame it can be hard to keep the individual films separate and not see it on the same scale as those two films. The main Kang in Quantumania was actually killing the other Kangs to stop them affecting the timeline so he'd be the only one, hence he's exiled. I feel like this was the perfect setup for the Phase 5.

[@MalBeats]

The movie really reminded me of Rick and Morty especially the Veb blob character when he squanched out and ate the bad guys because he had holes.

[@hollyludvigsen6763]

THIS!!! People are expecting every movie to be Infinity War/Endgame, but if every movie were like that we would get bored. Antman is a fun superhero movie that gives us some information to start the phase, but people expect way too much and are mad that this one movie isn't giving us all the answers!

[@katbh]

I disagree that Cassie is unlikable -- I found her to be the most relatable. I have a difficult relationship with my dad because he's been absent a lot. She is HURT, and hurt people hurt people. They shouldn't, but they do. In Scott's case, it's not his fault, I know. But she can be hurt about it, even if he didn't do it on purpose.

[@dramaturge231]

Peter doesn’t need to be “The Next Iron Man”. Peter Parker has always been a genius in his own right. I loathe how the MCU turned him into a Tony Stark protégé.

[@DwarfKing56]

I love how you guys can look past the controversies/issues and enjoy the good things. It frustrates me that I can't really do it anymore. Makes me smile to see you enjoy Marvel content still. Keep it up.

[@OzzyTheGiant]

It does help to understand where the whole overarching plot (the multiverse) is going, so I think that's what makes it entertaining for me.

[@twilightdream]

Agreed, I knew before watching the movie that a lot of people didn’t like it, but I actually really enjoyed it. Is it the best film? No, but it was good.

[@jgr975]

Scott made a comment about how time moves differently in the quantum realm. They never said how long they actually spent in the Quantum realm in Earth time. Also, Janet was down there for “30 years,” was this in Earth time or Quantum realm time?

[@FrigginNerdsMedia]

My understanding is that it all depends on if you have fallen through a time vortex...which operate separately within the quantum realm. When Scott was in the quantum realm, he went through a time vortex, which is why he lost all those years. The ants from this movie also went through a time vortex. Janet, however, didn't go through a time vortex so she aged normally. So, long answer is that Janet's time spent in the quantum realm was equal to her time spent away from earth.

[@NathanAndersonE]

I didn't feel like the Ant-Man dynamic meshed well with the stakes of this movie. This also seemed like a chance for them to set up Kang as someone we should be terrified of, and he came across as kind of pathetic in the end.

[@30purpelthings]

13:17 I could be that it's not physical possible to make pym partials in the quantum realm. Like every thing is a bit screwy, so maybe whatever hank did to make pym particles just doesn't work or can't happen within the confins of the quantum realm.

[@marcuscrawford585]

"Oh no, I was just eaten by my own hors d'oeuvres!" - I am DECEASED sir! 🤣

[@lancethefilmguy9392]

Interesting because I'm hearing the opposite. Most people I've been seeing say that this film is destroying Phase 5 of the MCU.

[@TaggsThoughts10]

Love you guys!!! So much thanks for making these videos. Its my Favorite part of the day when these come out!

[@yolandag8436]

I dont think that this kang was necessarily the "worst" or most "powerful " kang and that's why he was exile it was more he was the one willing to kill other Kangs and universes because he thought that was the way to prevent the multiverse from imploding and still have a kang in charge..but the other Kangs obviously didn't like it that and they don't care if in the future the multiverse will implode so if anything that makes them worse. Now that this kang will probably mix with the core, he might be the most powerful though..idk It is also interesting that the other Kang from Loki actually experienced what Quantamania Kang is trying to prevent and so was also trying to prevent the multiverse from imploding by creating the TVA to prevent other Kangs from rising.

[@CosmicRemix3000]

Is the blasts Kang is shooting when he’s battling the rebellion the same as what the TVA uses to prune timelines and people? 🤔

Where's Luis and friends???

[@timothystout4259]

It was so good until it wasn’t, I feel like I personally could cut the movie in a way that would make it better. The whole movie wasn’t bad there was just some bad moments and that soiled the movie.

[@SuperCarlinBrothers]

I can understand that!

[@ArcaneChipmunk]

What I also missed in this movie was a new Ant-ony. I remember Scott having a second one in the second movie (which also died I think?) and I really expected a new one to pop up.

[@FlashintheBand86]

I enjoyed this movie, but I agree with you when Bill Murray came on the screen. All I could think was Bill Murray is in this movie playing Bill Murray. I never believed he was a character. I thought this Kang might have been exiled because he wanted to do bad things to save the universe, whereas the remaining Kangs actually want to do bad things and destroy it. I kept wondering if killing him would turn out to be a mistake. It would make for an interesting twist if they went this way. The Kang actor is just amazing, and his ability to portray so many Kangs is amazing. Scott also said something similar to Dr. Strange when fighting Kang. He said I don't have to win, we both just have to lose. I was e pectong a quantum loop, but it didn't happen. Not sure if that will be important later or not, but it was a nice throwback to Dr. Stranges's origin movie.

[@GSharp66]

I think the idea is that only Hank can fully comprehend what a Pym particle is and utilise it, I know it's stated that Pym Particles were invented but I always preferred to think they just exist and the tech to harness them is what Hank created

[@mellyboo513]

It was ALOT going on but my favorite part of the movie was Jonathan Majors portrayal of Kang.

[@atomicmatrix9400]

Love the vids keep it up guys!!!! Much love from Canada 🇨🇦

[@Lovesmusic0218]

Yes, lots of love from Canada 🇨🇦

[@Shloiman19]

I think the reason kang doesn’t make the pym particle is because in the quantum realm there are different resources and they don’t have the ones needed to create that in the quantum realm

[@katholmes7112]

Now that Bob Iger is back in control of Disney, the visuals and CGI should improve as he will allow Marvel to take its time instead of basically assembly line production of projects. They are now allowed to spend time on quality instead of quantity which they weren't allowed to do under Bob Chapek.

[@CyGea]

Ms Marvel was the show with something involving The Ant-Family, in Phase 4. We learned Scott was the one who told the world about Endgame.

[@remarkablething5874]

Anyone else feel like the quantum people reminded them of the tuskens from star wars ?

[@DeadBore]

I think my problem with part 4 is that they DIDN’T calm down. It seems to be trying to make endgames without any material to pull on. I think they need to go more simple, more chill and they can build it up again

[@hardgaminfuture5845]

Just comin here to save this for the watch later since my showing is tomorrow around 12 😁

[@christopherplatt7282]

Could it be possible at the very end when they back home, that their home is not the home they left? I had a strange feeling when watching the end that things felt off, that in actual fact they returned home to a different timeline? I cant even really explain further because I cant really think what could have happened to make the timelines switch unless its just something that happened when you leave the Quantum Realm, like you can create a portal out but you risk what timeline you return too? I don't know. But the coffee shop owner who asks Scott for money when he never asked before. (Also was the coffee he brought expensive? In most parts of England that would cost about £3-4, but he charged him over $7, is that weird?), people acting different as he's walking to and from the coffee place. It just doesn't feel right. Still really enjoyed the movie though! Thought Kang was amazing and I can not wait for the rest of the MCU, especially if my theory is right lol. :)

[@s-wo8781]

8:13 that's how y'all took it. Not me. It just showed me how much he loved his daughter.

[@tristonsterlingsr4416]

So to be honest I think a lot 9f people got confused by the theme of "you should've been there", but this the theme because it's how Scott feels.. he's guilty and we see him walking down the road doing the inner monologue. So though she's not mad at him he still feels like dang my daughter grew up with out me and he's trying to find to a way to connect with her

[@Murdokstankfoot]

The goo reminded me of the translation fish from hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy.

[@RisBrian]

This was an AMAZING Dad/Daughter day movie...

[@mauratyson9580]

My biggest take away from this movie is that it wasn’t an MCU movie. It was a feature length film about Doctor Who. The character design, the world design, the score, the plot. That was a Doctor Who movie and you can’t convince me otherwise. And modok was a dalek

[@javier1256]

Maybe the reason drink the goo makes you understand most languages is because Veb ate a lot of beings that spoke a lot of languages. Also, he might just be a quantum version of Kirby lol

[@dub3140]

Kang the conqueror variant I s not that intelligent as Tony and hank. He stole most of his tech through the ages. He is just really resourceful. That’s his thing. Great review brothers!💯 does anyone know how many more marvel movies we will get this year? I know the marvels and season 2 of Loki is suppose to come out Q4🤔

[@laurastevens8154]

This movie is Marvel's version of an easy watch. There was nothing much happening, but it was a nice watch.

[@SydneyTravellersGuide]

I randomly watched this and subbed. That said, looked over your video thumbnails and if I had seen it, I probably would have skipped all your videos are they aren't reflective of this easy warm banter you guys have

[@CyGea]

The ants trashed Kang’s suit, so he had to fist fight Scott.

[@vaapad1HS]

41:37 The ethical dilemma you're describing would be the the trolley problem....Chidi was right there to remind you guys too!

[@alysongessford828]

I also noticed that the suit of armor being worn by the statue in the Loki finale is the Kang from this movie.

[@mishapenmoonmoth]

i think the main thing that frustrated me about janet was, on top of the character never explaining anything and acting like it was her allies' fault they didn't understand, that michelle pfeiffer gets out-acted by every single one of her scene partners. this isn't a diss at her, i love her in a lot of movies, but next to paul rudd, jonathan majors, and the rest of this cast, it just felt like she was CLEARLY the weak point in every single one of her interactions. i generally really liked this movie - it's not my favorite mcu projecy, but it was fun, entertaining, and officially introduced kang into the movies if nothing else - but janet was definitely a really frustrating centerpiece in an otherwise solid film.

[@jchacho6335]

Your commentary about the Scott/Cassie relationship in the beginning of the movie tells me your kids are still little. Teenagers are a completely different animal.

[@dramaturge231]

I’m surprised y’all gave it such high scores.

[@Einstein4203]

I though and wanted some type of loss for the heroes. When Scott says "I dnt have to win, we jus both have to lose" I expected and wanted for Scott to be caught in the quatum world

[@vaapad1HS]

For a second I thought Kang was going to kill Scott and that would have been honestly a great story beat, even if I personally would not enjoy it since I love Antman and Paul Rudd

[@OzzyTheGiant]

I thought so too, but honestly, I think Ant-Man is too important to be killed off for any reason. He and Dr. Strange were the key to solving the problem of Infinity War, I think they will continue to be needed for navigating the Multiverse.

[@Einstein4203]

@@OzzyTheGiant he didnt had to be killed. He couldve jus been stuck n the quatum world. With cassie, hope, and the rest trying to get him out in the next project or him finding his way out and coming back with multiverse heroes

[@Einstein4203]

@@vaapad1HS he didnt have to die. Jus more consequence

[@staticlegend354]

It's pretty split between people about the movie in general. Reminds me of Doctor Strange 2.

[@BrandleyR]

What if, in Harry Potter, Harry as a horcrux obtained the ability to devour horcruxes? Specifically the soul piece in them to strengthen/impower himself. Would he actually be reconstructing Voldemort's soul or would he be becoming more than just a man by strengthening his own soul? If you become less of a human be dividing your soul, what would happen if you added or strengthened your soul? Would Harry become like a demigod if he devoured most of the horcruxes?

[@jvaritekbaby33]

Please review Star Wars tv shows! You don’t do a lot of Star Wars and you’re missing out on great opportunities for theories! Like will crosshair turn good? Will we see Ezra?

[@gilliganIII]

I think Kang was telling the truth about the future because he was a time traveller who went to the "End" and saw what the Multiverse War causes to happen and he decided to eliminate them from the multiverse. All Kangs are from the 30th century future so that will take multiple massacres in many places, in both time and space. This would be a daunting task for anyone, but for Kang, it is a calling, a sacred mission that must be carried out by him, savior of the multiverse.

[@yukonyeti6296]

No Luis automatically made it worse than the other two.

[@johnny2003]

It helps Majors with his fighting form that he filmed Creed. So that might be his real punching.

[@CyGea]

When Cassie said she raised herself, my first thought was, where is your Mom? And step-dad?

[@null_verdict]

23:12 "ripped to ribbons" sounds like a colloquialism like "chuffed to bits"

[@the_old_crimge74]

On the note of the Pym Particals I just thought that maybe they couldn't be made in the Quantum Realm, like the ingredients just don't exist down there

[@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460]

It seems to me that I lot of the things that disappointed me about how Kang was treated at the end of Quantumania could have been solved with *three simple words.* As Kang is going into the blast of that circle thing, if he had shouted, *"See You Soon"* that would alleviate the is he/isn't he alive and it would have kept the abject danger of his existence hovering over the MCU. There could also be a 5 second moment after we see the Counsel of Kangs where we see a tiny Kang the Conqueror in an even deeper version of the Quantum Realm and he splits in two the way Scott did. They look at each other and we, the audience, don't know whether they will keep duplicating and kill each other, if they'll all work together, or if the main Kang will triumph and get out of there.

[@GODOFAWSOMENESS1]

Geez guys science is complex and there are many different fields and certain minds are wired just the right way to advance certain fields.

[@RomanHistoryFan476AD]

The Problem I found with Multiverses, is that nearly all the time they end up getting so big and confusing that it starts to poorly effect the story. And it tends to become lazy writing.

[@CyGea]

Rama Tut Kang was his first appearance of Kang in the comics. Facing the FF.

[@Utuberj0sh]

I want to know what your guys take is on this: did Kang destroy and consolidate all the timelines in one multiverse or in all the multiverses? Actually I guess what I’m really trying to ask is are we to understand that each multiverse has their own set of timelines with infinite variants OR are we to understand that each timeline has their own set of infinite multiverses OR do these movies use the terms timelines and multiverse interchangeably? In Loki they definitely stuck to timelines and variants, in DR Strange they stuck only to multiverse. But in Quantamania they were definitely using both terms and it got hard to track. His chariot seems to be able to traverse both timelines and multiverses…

[@Wolfknfe]

Anyone else notice that this movie was LITERALLY Tron Legacy start to finish?

[@jimbo9208]
