      @PiffMasterG The film is just written by cartoon writers and it shows.
      They don't even understand that the reason that Scott came back after 5 years was simply that the Quantum Tunnel was turned off when the snap happened, and left in storage.
      All the rat did was turn it back on.
      In other words if Cassie had interest in Quantum physics she would have gotten the Quantum Tunnel out of storage.
      Endgame is actually based on the idea that *Cassie thought Scott was snapped* - no one - no one was looking for him in the Quantum Realm.
      The writers can't even keep track of that.

Also, Kang planned on taking his army with him out of the quantum realm, but are they all microscopic natives of the quantum realm?

    And speaking of James Cameron, you can use Terminator 2 as an example of how to balance CGI and practical effects. They had to use CGI to show the T-1000 to reform from damage, but when it holds on the damage it suffered, that was all built by hand. Truly amazing work!

      Ant man quantumania is good as long as you go into it expecting an ant man film. Too many people saw khang and expected this to be an Avenger movie. Ant man movies have always been a lot of comedy, a little bit of action, and a bunch of made-up science.

      @Dr. Cinema From what I've heard of this review and from many people, they were expecting an emotional dramatic movie. Which just isn't ant man, it has some emotion, but those parts always are filled with jokes. For example, in the first ant man, Hank is telling his daughter about how their mother dies, a very emotional part of the story, and ant man ruins the moment. That's literally the whole ant man thing, plots with some emotional but all jokes.
      That said, khang was too important of a villain to be in this movie, and they made him seem almost weak.

    The more interesting question to me is why anyone would like this, since most reviewers don't.
    Realize that this film now has 163 bad reviews. Everything from Wall Street Journal, to New York Magazine to BBC.
    Good God - ABC is owned by Disney and *used* to promote MCU films and STILL their critic trashed this *awful* film. Here is my conclusion...
    There are many people who actually like bad comic books and cartoons.
    AntMan 3 has all the attributes of a bad comic book. It has none of the attributes of cinema.
    That's why the cinema critics hate it, whereas some comic book fans like it.
    The film has 1 dimensional characters, juvenile jokes, corny dialogue, and cheesy FX.
    The story telling is done at a child psychology level.
    Meaning all the adult characters behave the way that little children would.
    Janet - who refused to tell anyone anything that happened to her because she was embarrassed or ashamed.
    Hank - who let his daughter engage in dangerous experiments with no safety considerations.
    Kang - a spoilt brat locked in his room {quantum realm}, and crying because he can't get out. He will wreak havoc! And vengeance!!! If he does. lol. [whatever you say Dr. Evil!!]
    *The film is intentionally designed to appeal to the 7 year old child mind* in the audience members. [however old they may be]
    The plot structure is bad comic book 101: *Hero punch villain, villain punch back...until...hero punch villain...villain stop punching back.* THE END.
    The film is designed to appeal to child's need for junk food. That is - familiar tastes that are valued precisely because it does not deviate.
    When this film is over - nothing has happened.
    There are no stakes, consequences, or ideas at play.
    It simply returns you to where you began - like a bad comic book or cartoon.
    To be repeated ad nausea until, well...until the child tummy aches and starts vomiting it back.
    Have you ever seen the cartoon parody: *Pinky and the Brain?*
    Every episode ends the same way - as a joke that makes fun of movies and comics like Antman 3:
    Pinky: _What are we going to do tomorrow Brain?_
    Brain: _The SAME THING we do every day Pinky - > TRY TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD!_
    MODOK is evil minion PINKY.
    KANG is the brain.
    Of course a part of the joke is that the "brain" is really an egotistical idiot, who just needs to believe he's smart. lol.
    Well that's what they did in this film to Kang.
    My point is - if bad comic books are what you like then Antman 3 is probably the *best* MCU film ever made.
    Endgame is probably the worst - its all stakes and consequences, and psychology, and philosophy. You have to think about it, and if you aren't into that..,.you *won't* get it.
    Worst of all, it has characters who fail, grow old, and even die. It changes the story telling Universe in ways that can't be undone.
    In short -> *Everything you hate.* [also known as CINEMA]
    Quantum-Meh is a film for children - and children only, as it makes a grown person wonder why they waste their time on something so unrelentingly childish and immature as the MCU.

  • @rileyb3d
    @rileyb3d Рік тому +1

    Hey Adam! I think you communicated this well: Just like there is good acting and bad acting, there is good CG and bad CG. Props to you for giving some small credit to the CG artists in the original Jurassic Park. That was not just an amazing film, but a breakthrough in CG vfx for the time. As you pointed out, it was used tastefully.
    When CG is used as the tool it's meant to be, it can greatly enhance films. In fact, some of the best CG effects in today's films are assumed to be live action. It's actually difficult for the CG artists! When it's bad, it's like:
    "Oh that's CG. CG sucks."
    But when the CG is good, everyone says:
    "Wow, props to this director for using so much live action." 🤦‍♂
    Like you said; the mere use of CG does not make a film bad. It's how it's used. And how does modern MCU use it? They use it as a crutch to produce more, faster. And the workload they impose on VFX houses is unreal. It's wrong. There's a reason their CGI is slipping, and it's not because the artist's are terrible. It's because their management of everything, and their attempt to take over the world with the amount of content they're making is just too much, too fast.

    12:40 As long as MCU is written by Rick and Morty writers I guarantee you each new film will create retroactive plot holes in the original films. This starts out as incompetence but as more and more people complain about it - it turns into spite. That's human nature and also writing as a competitive endeavor. Kevin Feige will rue the day - he cast his seeds onto the wind -with Rick and Morty.

    I think people truly want to believe in their heads that Jonathan Majors is this awesome actor.
    What a lot of people don’t know if he’s a new actor, relatively green. he started acting later in life. in an interview, he said he started acting about five years ago.
    When I saw Loki season one, I was completely blown away, and then I was a little bit disappointed when I saw he who remains…
    I’m a big marvel fan but I didn’t know who Kang was.
    Kang is pretty simplistic. He is a time traveler that wants to conquer. what villain doesn’t want to conquer the word & now the vast multiverse?
    If you want me to believe in this villain, he needs to be more complex than just a conqueror.
    So where do I begin with Ant-man quantum mania?
    I loved all the ant Man films, they’re lighthearted, corky, funny and uplifting. Who doesn’t love an underdog story?
    In Ant-man Quantamania, there are times where jokes are funny, and their times where jokes are inappropriate at inappropriate times when things are supposed to be more serious.
    You have Hank’s wife Janet, who is terrified of the quantum realm yet an ant man, too. She was totally fine with Scott Lang going into the quantum realm before they blipped..
    Fast forward to Ant-man quantum mania Janet is completely terrified of the quantum realm, she doesn’t want to talk about the quantum realm or what she has been through.
    To make a long story short, Janet talks about how horrific Kang the conqueror is, once they go to the quantum realm. Everyone that lives there talks the big talk about how scary and conniving Kang is.
    Finally, when we get to meet Kang the conquer
    At first, he is very serious, and he does seem like somewhat of a threat. He has high technology and can kill you with just conjuring his hands.
    It took kAng 50 minutes to show up.
    Fast forward to the battles with Kang to get out of the quantum realm without him he is EASILY defeated. If a whole bunch of ants & Ant Man can defeat him how is he a threat? His powers where inconsistent, at first, he seemed very powerful, and then at the end his powers were very ineffective.
    You could tell Jonathan Majors was trying his very best at what he was given, but I feel the writers were a tad bit lazy. In this movie, they explain things to you, but they don’t show you.
    Murdoch is in this film yellow jacket from first Ant Man Kang uses him as the “ultimate killing machine” he’s a big floating head with baby arms and baby legs. The fact that Kang can be around something so stupid makes me less intrigued by him.
    Remember, Thor love and thunder? It felt like a parody of Thor.. Where is Thor was just one big joke? Then you have an awesome actor like Christian Bale that has a very dark and complex character that you want to enjoy and love, but doesn’t fit in the movie because it’s a silly parody?
    That’s what happens in this film.
    Don’t get me wrong I like Jonathan Majors, but the introduction of Kang has fumbled twice.
    He was easily killed in Loki & easily defeated in Ant man.
    & we are supposed to be scared of him In loki season 2? Secret wars? Kang dynasty? Come on.
    I guess if you shut your brain off and you grabbed some popcorn and didn’t think too hard I can see how this movie is enjoyable for some people, but I’ve always loved marvel and their amazing story telling, and their story arcs that all beautifully intertwine with one another.
    This was a very weak and strange way to kick off phase 5.
    END CREDIT SCENES
    So when someone tells you that there’s an end credit scene with a council of Kangs it sounds cool right?
    When I first saw it, I was in disbelief, you have Jonathan Majors playing king tut kang, scarlet cyborg Kang and I forgot the other kang he had cheap blue paint on his face and sounded like he smoked 20 packs of newports a day.
    Then you see a trillion other kangs come to the council of Kangs from every possible multiverse and they’re all howling like monkeys from planet of the apes! It felt like an SNL sketch rather than something that is supposed to instill fear into our hearts.
    Kevin you don’t give Rick & morty writers the keys to the kingdom of the multiverse saga

      Big trouble in little china Kang is what he looked like to me in the end credits since he had a similar look to Lo Pan.. the council of kangs being a comic book thing but most people think of Rick and Morty when they see it first made it seem more rediculous when it needed to be serious to set Kang up as some kind of threat..
      Like you said we've seen Kang twice now and he's been defeated both times making him look like less of a threat.. especially with the council nonsense which makes it look like they can just use Kang as the villain in almost every movie because they always have a new Kang that is more evil than the last one for whoever the movie is for to defeat.. avengers Kang dynasty will be interesting considering it's still two years away and they still have to actually build a story or character that isn't a rushed mess with cgi trying to fill in the gaps the lazy writing opens up in every movie now.
      Avengers we wuz kangz... Or avengers Kang bang would work as alternatives for Kang dynasty which sounds like a Chinese restaurant...

      It took all of the avengers plus more to take out Thanos in infinity war and it still didn’t work.

      I don’t need a 1,000 kangs from every multiverse all I need is ONE ☝️ that poses a threat.

      Not only was Kang a huge disappointment… again. The movie was just horrible through & through. Phase 1-3 there where no bad marvel films they were bullet proof and reliable,
      Tapping into time travel and multiverse Is already confusing and now everyone has to watch Disney plus shows to understand.

I've seen the film and a few reviews, the one point nobody seems to be talking about are Kangs motivations, which weren't very well explained but I thought the part where he came across most Thanos-esque was the most interesting part, talking about "skipping to the end" seeing his variants causing countless incursions and having to conquer and control them to stop them, it was glazed over in one reply of "you're evil and don't care about anyone" but for that one scene, and the part where he opens the portal to earth, there was hope.

The humor just wasn't there like in the first one. I could go to the first one and simply laugh. This wasn't one of those movies. It had humor in it, but I just didn't enjoy it like I did the first one. Maybe I'm burnt out on superhero movies. Idk. This movie wasn't bad, I'd urge anyone to go see it and come to their own conclusion, but for me, it was an OK movie. I could watch the 1st antman over and over, this one, I doubt I will.
