Here's a fun fact: The man whose car roof Scott landed on the first time he shrunk is played by Garrett Morris. Garret was in the cast of Saturday Night Live from 1975-1980; his cameo here is a nod to the fact that he once dressed up as Ant-Man for a superhero skit in a 1979 SNL episode. Until this movie was made, that skit was the only time Ant-Man had ever been portrayed in live action.
18:04 The FIRST actor to play Ant-Man, though it was in a sketch comedy scene for Saturday Night Live (Superhero Party 1979). That is SNL founding member, Garrett Morris.
Sweetie! You missed a SECOND end credit scene! Some of the later movies have more than one end credit scene sometimes 3 or 4 of them so just for future reference don't skip them from now on there's lots of tasty tidbits to come in them!
I think she skips post credits scenes that would appear in future movies to go in completely blind. One example was the post credits scene for CA:TFA which was just the trailer for the Avengers.
@@Frostgasm I'm sorry, everyone will have their own way of thinking, but a good Marvel fan waits to see the post-credits scenes, that's what differentiates us from other franchises. So if you want to live the Marvel experience well, you should watch the post-credits scene(s).
@@I360FXI It is correct, everyone has their own way of thinking, but I repeat, one of the things that distinguishes the Marvel universe are the post-credits scenes. When the movie ended in the movie theaters, only 5 or 6 people left, the vast majority stayed to watch the post-credit scenes, those few people are the ones you are referring to, I imagine.
In Captain America: Winter Soldier, when Steve and Black Widow go to investigate the old army barracks in New Jersey (where Steve did basic training), there are three framed portraits on the wall which show the founding members of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Peggy Carter, Howard Stark (also revealed by Nick Fury to Tony in Iron Man 2), and Colonel Chester Phillips (Tommy Lee Jones' character in Captain America: The First Avenger). Steve also says to Peggy, when visiting her in the hospital in Captain America: Winter Soldier, "Knowing that you helped found S.H.I.E.L.D. is half the reason I stay."
Hello, you need to see the second post-credits scene, this is the end of all the credits. That scene is important since it links to the next movie, Captain America Civil War.
Better that she doesn't see it. There are a few end credit scenes in the MCU that should absolutely be skipped, and this is one of them. In this case, it's simply a scene pulled from the next movie, which spoils plot points for someone who is trying to go into each move blind. I'm glad she clearly has someone curating this for her and letting her know which to avoid.
@AMUSIX I'm sorry, everyone will have their own way of thinking, but a good Marvel fan waits to see the post-credits scenes, that's what differentiates us from other franchises. So if you want to live the Marvel experience well, you should watch the post-credits scene(s).
@@LuisSanchez-e8h Maybe when theyre for movies that came out a year later and are mostly forgotten about. Not when theyre part of a movie being watched a week later like she will. It literally just spoils.
What I really like about this movie is they kind of turn the step-dad trope on itself. Start off the movie thinking he's not a good guy but at the end he's protecting a daughter that isn't biologically his and recognizes that Scott is needed in the family life. This movie was a pleasant surprise when it came out, definitely enjoyed it more than I thought I would
@@alpaka8437yeah from the beginning he's actually pretty much in the right. Scott flat out admits that it was in prison that he finally thought about how his actions might affect his daughter. The new guy just sees a guy who fails to put his daughter first and is extremely disrespectful to boundaries they have
Ant-Man (Hank Pym) and Wasp (Janet Van Dyne) were founding members of the Avengers, and Janet was really the heart of the team in the comics. She's amazing in The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, which, by the way, is an amazing show I highly recommend. Fun fact, Janet’s actually the one who came up with the name "Avengers" for the team. She was originally supposed to be in The Avengers (2012) and was even said to be one of the funniest characters, but she got replaced by Black Widow because they felt there were already too many characters in the movie. In the comics, Yellowjacket was actually one of Hank Pym’s alternate identities. He took it on after a breakdown following the creation of Ultron and a bunch of personal struggles. At first, Yellowjacket came off more like a villain because of how unstable he was, but he eventually turned things around and became a hero again. Fun fact: when Scott broke into Hank’s house in New York, Hank was Yellowjacket at the time, so the Ant-Man role was up for grabs. If you want to dive deeper into Hank and Janet, I’d definitely recommend The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. It’s only two seasons, so it’s a pretty quick watch, but totally worth it.
Good reaction to meeting Marvel’s tiniest Avenger! So Hope’s parents, Hank Pym & his wife Janet who were the OG Ant-Man & The Wasp in Marvel lore were founding members of The Avengers. The roster was Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Ant-Man, & Wasp. They swap them for Black Widow & Hawkeye for the movies which was kind of unfortunate. Janet/Wasp was even the one who came up with the team name. Captain America didn’t join until issue 4. Hank Pym was also the creator of Ultron in the comics. For the MCU, they made it Tony. Ultron’s creation was the push for Hank/Ant-Man to leave the team feeling responsible as well as dealing with mental health issues. Years later, Scott Lang would be introduced to take up the mantle in the early 2000’s. So you can see that the MCU wanted the Ant-Man movie to more about the idea of a character taking the role of a legacy hero.
is crazy how many people now get to watch this movies one right after the other , us true Marvel fans had to wait years for this movies , totally worth it
“In like the Flynn” is a reference to the line “In like Flynn” which is a reference to a classic film actor Errol Flynn, which is when someone dies something smoothly like sneaking into a building or something.
The thing about visitation is that if it's at Scott's place, Cassie's mom is dropping her daughter off at the apartment of a stranger, who is also a felon, as we know Luis was Scott's cellmate at San Quinten. Luis is clearly (clear to the audience, at least) still committing crimes, which would potentially put Cassie in harm's way if police were to stage a raid at the apartment. If Scott can walk into Luis' apartment and be greeted by 2 additional felons, who he does not know, it's really no place to bring a kid for visitation. If they do visitation at Cassie's house, the mom and her fiance would then be the hosts, which comes with responsibilities and time commitments that may not be practical or fair to put on them, espescially considering it appears the mom isn't legally obligated to allow Scott to see Cassie, probably because he's a felon. So Scott needs his own place to safely keep Cassie all day, and for overnights. I'm all for the Robin Hood thing, but the right choice has consequences. If I had a kid and was considering committing a felony, even for the most noble of reasons, I would at least google some key points about child custody and felons before making such a drastic choice with such predictable and devastating personal consequences. Also, it seems that when Scott said he'd "given it a lot of thought" and he "really wants to be a part of her life," he may have been alluding to not wanting to be a father early on and/or being a largely absentee dad in her earliest years, and changing his mind about wanting to be involved while he was in prison. If I had a child with a man who more or less peaced out for the late night feedings and diaper changes, ended up in jail for years, and now wants to reconnect with her, I would also demand some type of time and energy commitment before allowing my child's father to flit in and out of her life on a whim or put her in danger. Cassie's mom is doing her due diligence. One of my favorite parts of the movie is how understandable everyone's behavior is based on their loyalties and responsibilities. Scott's loyalty is with his daughter, so of course he'll do anything to see her more, including going back to crime. Cassie's mom's loyalty is to Cassie and she obviously has a maternal responsibility to keep Cassie safe, which means keeping her away from criminal activity. Paxton's loyalties are to Cassie and her mom, as well as the law, and he has the responsibility to uphold the law, even if that means arresting Scott and potentially damaging his relationship with Cassie.
Kali, watching you enjoy all these different films is like finding a new friend from a different culture & getting to enjoy watching their enjoyment & discovery as they encounter their new world. Thanks for sharing! Corpsman, Out!
4:40 Scott wasn't fired because he was in prison. He was fired because he LIED about it on his resume/application for the job. Also, in regards to your question earlier about Peggy Carter. She was a founding member of S.H.I.E.L.D., eventually serving as the Director. (Nick Fury's job)
This movie is really good! I glad you watched it! I remember watch this one on the theaters, it was so good, I really love these reactions, keep going Kali!
Here are some Ant-Man details and facts. In the comic book Hank Pym was the creator of Ultron. Hank was not a superhero but he engaged in hearing after meeting his wife Janet Van dyne the former shield agent. Hank found out about the effect of the pym particle on the brain after he attacked Janet and hawk still has outburst just not to that extreme extent. Scott Lang is the third 3rd to 4th version of Ant-Man in the comic books with no real backstory. Hank was the first yellow jacket in the comics after he took on a more villainous persona.
I am so so glad that you get to experience these movies like I did. This is the first ever Marvel movie I ever saw in theaters when I was 7, one of my favorites. These amazing years of 2013-2018 are the peak of Marvel, incredibly amazing to see your lovely reactions. 😊
If you liked that song during the fight in the briefcase, it's from the band The Cure. Planesong off of their album Disintegration. Its my favorite album of their's.
13:40 "In like the Flynn" is a reference to the US's version of James Bond played by James Coburn. He made 2 movies "In Like Flint" and "Our Man Flint" both filmed in the mid 60s and most definitely the inspiration of Mike Myers' Austin Powers movies. Definitely worth a watch if you ask me.
Thank you for the Firefly shout-out (thief/not a thief)! You also mentioned "Saving Private Ryan" earlier. Do you notice who the actor was who played the "wrong" Private Ryan? The actor went on to become a certain space-cowboy captain. Speaking of captains, you will love the upcoming Captain America movie.
When Scott first tries on the suit, and then lands on the roof of a car... the actor sitting in the car is Garrett Morris from the really early days of Saturday Night Live. In an early sketch, Garrett actually played Ant Man. ua-cam.com/video/ndSp1zM_8cY/v-deo.htmlsi=OZqt-ypLvjIZcAiI
Kurt (tech guy) is actor David Dastmalchian. He is one of the few actors to appear in both Marvel and DC movies. He was the Polka-Dot man in the second Suicide Squad.
6:40 Tales to Astonish. Love the reference, its the name of an old Marvel Comics series. And if I remember correctly, the place Ant Man first appeared. Also love how the bad guy, looks a lot like Jeff Bezos.
kali, i think the only reason they made this movie was because the filmmaker, Edgar Wright was a fan of ant man and tried to make an Ant Man movie for like 10 years before this and he took his idea to marvel and they went with it because his movie idea/short film was so good/convincing that it would make a good movie
Earlier in the film they say something about Cross not having been too stable to begin with, but now the particles have messed with his brain chemistry to make him even more unstable. Presumably there are certain safety precautions that Darren doesn't know about or has disregarded.
@@ldkinbote Although that's a little odd because he hadn't yet successfully shrunk any living creature yet, so he surely hadn't tried to shrink himself. (That would have led to a much shorter movie!) So when would he have been needing to wear the "proper" helmet, and yet not be shrinking???
@bigdream_dreambig True. Perhaps just handling it over time has an effect? Don't know for sure. Just going off what Hank said. I mean, he was shooting at people in a gun form.
"May I see your ID?" "I believe _that_ will suffice..." (points at oil painting portrait) "Uh...no sir, I will still need to see your ID...it's the law, and this is a security risk--" "I'm Hank Pym, dammit!" "BACK-UP!" (tases angry Michael Douglas)
Glad I was able to catch a premiere. This is one of my favorites from this stretch of the MCU. Such a silly contrast from the seriously high stakes that are coming.
There are several theories where the saying "In like Flynn" came from, one of them relating to the actor Errol Flynn, but I feel the one that fits best refers to Edward J. Flynn (most prominent c. 1922 - 1943), a New York City political boss who became a campaign manager for the Democratic party during Franklin Delano Roosevelt's presidency. Boss Flynn's "Democratic Party machine exercised absolute political control over the Bronx.... The candidates he backed were almost automatically 'in'."
This movie makes me want to play a game where I get to control hordes of ants, each with their own skills and characteristics to fight enemies for me LOL. I feel like I just described Pikmin, but my point still stands 🤣 Great reaction! I knew that this was going to be a funnier / more lighthearted superhero movie and wasn't sure how to feel about that going in, but I really enjoyed it!
I don't know if mice grrr, but I know they laugh when tickled. The sound is pitched in the ultrasonic, so we can't hear it, but we can record it. How would you like to be employed as a laboratory mouse-tickler?
Whoops! There was a very cool end credit scene that you missed! But besides that, your reactions are awesome. I got hooked with your Mass Effect playthrough, and now I'm a subscriber :)
56:34 "I think we're starting off with a Captain America movie which makes me really excited to go into one of those because _Captain America: Winter Soldier_ was so good. So I'm definitely looking forward to that..." Well, knowing you as I do (which means not at all), I don't think you like it very much...
I can definitely see it from both sides! It's easier to be on Paul Rudd's though because the movie is in his perspective lol. But as a parent myself, I totally get it.
Of **course** Darren Cross is a bad guy - he's bald 🙂 . It is a common comics trope. Remember Iron Man 1, both the head terrorist and Obadiah (Tony's business partner) were bald. See also Lex Luthor, Superman's arch villain. Villains are often made to look odd in some way to make you dislike them, while heroes are good-looking. This trick was used so much it got subverted in more recent media. For example in the TV series "Once Upon a Time", the Evil Queen is played by a beautiful woman (Lana Parilla). ==== Fortunately my divorce was amicable, but custody and visitation are up to the judge, who is supposed to act in the best interests of the children. In Scott's case, the judge decided being in prison for a felony was not something his daughter should be exposed to at a young age. As he is now unemployed and living with and hanging out with other ex-cons, it wouldn't change that decision. When Luis is posing as a security guard, he starts whistling "It's a Small World", the theme song from a Disney park ride where you are supposed to be shrunk down. Disney owns Marvel, so it is one of their inside jokes.
Its very easy to be on scotts side with his daughter situation cause hes the main character but keep in mind its literally entirely his fault he cant see her as easily. He admits it was only when he was already IN prison that he thought about how this affects cass and how he actually wants to be part of her life. And the crime while yes it was on the side of the angels was not something he NEEDED to do, it was a jab at the person for personal satisfaction, not necessity
My favorite character is actually Hawkeye. I think it's great that he got so much depth in Age of Ultron. It gives a completely different perspective ^^ Edit: I accidentally wrote in German. It's a bit difficult to switch ^^
Kali, just a heads up there is someone posing as you on another app, asking people in the comments here to talk on that app. They are even using ai to send voice messages "from you"
LMAO You got the 2 terms mixed up, Scott was in Prison when we first meet him, then he later escaped from Jail with the suit 😂😅 Which is why he has such a hard time finding a decent job, most places dont want to hire an Ex-Prison Convict because they are associated with committing Real Bad Hardcore Crimes… Most of the time
Yes, from an earlier question. It's really like this for ex cons. Especially felons. Finding a good job is hard enough even without a record. The idea behind it is to force former criminals to re-offend so they'll get locked up again. That's why so little money goes to prisoner rehabilitation and preparation for coming back into society. I'm speaking from experience here. And before anyone comments about committing crimes in the first place, that isn't the issue here. It's continuing to punish those who have already been punished
Guardians of the galaxy movies is my top comedy mcu films then it's the ant man lol, iron man is funny but it's still serious, these ones are serious but alot of humour
Of course it's only my opinion but I would take Hawkeye out or Captain America out of your top 5 instead of Thor. I always loved Captain America in the comics but like Iron Man said in one of the Avengers movies is that "everything that makes Captain America special comes out of a bottle or tube"(can't remember which))). And you think about it You could give ANYONE a formula to make a supersoldier. The only reason he became a superhero, got someone like Peggy and got a bigger body is because of a formula. Peggy more than likely would never have fell for him if he was in his very skinny form. All of the other heroes are different in abilities they bring Iron Man with technology, Thor being a god, Hawkeye with his skill and Black Widow with her combat skills...Captain America just gets big. Again I loved Captain America in the comics because he was a hero and didn't need his backstory....plus I feel the early Captain America movie was BORING!!!!
I'm really glad you are supportive of the single ex con Dad and maybe you would be in any case, but most women? Only if he looked like Paul Rudd and was as charming.
The child visitstion rights shouldn't be locked behind having an aparement etc. Joint custody, sure, but not visitation. Why does she expect him to pay child support when he doesn't have a job yet. It is pretty bad how the one mistake can prevent you from getting a job forever, even with a masters degree
He literally flat out said that it was in prison he realized his actions had an affect on his daughter. Meaning through the whole process of his original crime he didn't once think, "how will this affect my daughter?". That is something I don't want around anyone's kids. He messed up and needs the actual consequences of his actions

39:01 Nobody called the police on Hank. The police know that Hank was the last person to visit Scott in the jail cell posing as his lawyer.

Ant-Man (Hank Pym) and Wasp (Janet Van Dyne) were founding members of the Avengers, and Janet was really the heart of the team in the comics.

Also, in regards to your question earlier about Peggy Carter. She was a founding member of S.H.I.E.L.D., eventually serving as the Director. (Nick Fury's job)
Which makes me wonder what happened with S.H.I.E.L.D in What if..? episode 1 without Peggy’s direction
That's right! If he had been truthful on his application, he wouldn't have been hired at all.

Putting all of these films one, coherent story is amazing.
My guess, for the reason he didn’t tell Hope is that he didn’t want her to blame him for Janet‘s death. And his fear led him to lie.

13:39 “In Like Flynn” 🤗
10:15 No, he didn't try to shrink that guy. He knew that the zapping doesn't work. He did it to easily get rid of him.
I realized that after the lamb experimenting 😮💨🫨😭
kali, i think the only reason they made this movie was because the filmmaker, Edgar Wright was a fan of ant man and tried to make an Ant Man movie for like 10 years before this and he took his idea to marvel and they went with it because his movie idea/short film was so good/convincing that it would make a good movie
Earlier in the film they say something about Cross not having been too stable to begin with, but now the particles have messed with his brain chemistry to make him even more unstable. Presumably there are certain safety precautions that Darren doesn't know about or has disregarded.
He didn't know he had to create the specialized helmet to shield his brain from the effects.
@@ldkinbote Although that's a little odd because he hadn't yet successfully shrunk any living creature yet, so he surely hadn't tried to shrink himself. (That would have led to a much shorter movie!) So when would he have been needing to wear the "proper" helmet, and yet not be shrinking???
@bigdream_dreambig True. Perhaps just handling it over time has an effect? Don't know for sure. Just going off what Hank said. I mean, he was shooting at people in a gun form.
"May I see your ID?"
"I believe _that_ will suffice..." (points at oil painting portrait)
"Uh...no sir, I will still need to see your ID...it's the law, and this is a security risk--"
"I'm Hank Pym, dammit!"
"BACK-UP!" (tases angry Michael Douglas)
Glad I was able to catch a premiere. This is one of my favorites from this stretch of the MCU. Such a silly contrast from the seriously high stakes that are coming.
There are several theories where the saying "In like Flynn" came from, one of them relating to the actor Errol Flynn, but I feel the one that fits best refers to Edward J. Flynn (most prominent c. 1922 - 1943), a New York City political boss who became a campaign manager for the Democratic party during Franklin Delano Roosevelt's presidency. Boss Flynn's "Democratic Party machine exercised absolute political control over the Bronx.... The candidates he backed were almost automatically 'in'."
Interesting. I never heard that.
Best part of this movie was the epic toy train fight scene at the end 🤣🤣🤣
who keeps ant-man’s costume wrinkle free…….Iron Man. (ba dum tiss)
🤣🤣🤣
_Ugh_
😂!! 👍👍!!
Oooo we cranking these out now! Can’t wait
This movie makes me want to play a game where I get to control hordes of ants, each with their own skills and characteristics to fight enemies for me LOL. I feel like I just described Pikmin, but my point still stands 🤣
Great reaction! I knew that this was going to be a funnier / more lighthearted superhero movie and wasn't sure how to feel about that going in, but I really enjoyed it!
There is another credit scene connecting with civil war
probably better to skip it, it's just a scene from CW and it'll be a nice surprise
I don't know if mice grrr, but I know they laugh when tickled. The sound is pitched in the ultrasonic, so we can't hear it, but we can record it. How would you like to be employed as a laboratory mouse-tickler?
Whoops! There was a very cool end credit scene that you missed! But besides that, your reactions are awesome. I got hooked with your Mass Effect playthrough, and now I'm a subscriber :)
I like that rendition of voodoo child in the intro
Obligatory engagement comment. Fantastic as always Kali!!!!
Tip, marvel movies sometimes have 2 or more end credit scene.
40:06 He recognized the sound the horn made at 9:44
Another great reaction! Thanks!
The Smith pain index is a real thing, btw. The guy tested out the stings and bites from many different insect species. Giving them all a rating
"do mice go grrr?" lol
56:34 "I think we're starting off with a Captain America movie which makes me really excited to go into one of those because _Captain America: Winter Soldier_ was so good. So I'm definitely looking forward to that..."
Well, knowing you as I do (which means not at all), I don't think you like it very much...
To me the fact that he went straight to crime after she said get your life together is why she was right not to let him see her
I can definitely see it from both sides! It's easier to be on Paul Rudd's though because the movie is in his perspective lol. But as a parent myself, I totally get it.
Firefly reference!
Respect.
Of **course** Darren Cross is a bad guy - he's bald 🙂 . It is a common comics trope. Remember Iron Man 1, both the head terrorist and Obadiah (Tony's business partner) were bald. See also Lex Luthor, Superman's arch villain. Villains are often made to look odd in some way to make you dislike them, while heroes are good-looking.
This trick was used so much it got subverted in more recent media. For example in the TV series "Once Upon a Time", the Evil Queen is played by a beautiful woman (Lana Parilla).

Fortunately my divorce was amicable, but custody and visitation are up to the judge, who is supposed to act in the best interests of the children. In Scott's case, the judge decided being in prison for a felony was not something his daughter should be exposed to at a young age. As he is now unemployed and living with and hanging out with other ex-cons, it wouldn't change that decision.
When Luis is posing as a security guard, he starts whistling "It's a Small World", the theme song from a Disney park ride where you are supposed to be shrunk down. Disney owns Marvel, so it is one of their inside jokes.
It’s gonna be really interesting to see your reaction to Civil War considering your current Top 5. Phase 3 starts out with one hell of a bang. 🍿
👀😱
She doesn't need to know that
I love Ant Man
Phase 3 is AMAZING. Can’t wait for your Captain America Civil War reaction. That one changes everything!
You left the end credits of the movie. After this every marvel movie has both mid credit and end credits scene.
Only partially true… one in particular has no mid or end credit.
Its very easy to be on scotts side with his daughter situation cause hes the main character but keep in mind its literally entirely his fault he cant see her as easily. He admits it was only when he was already IN prison that he thought about how this affects cass and how he actually wants to be part of her life. And the crime while yes it was on the side of the angels was not something he NEEDED to do, it was a jab at the person for personal satisfaction, not necessity
'mice go grrr' lol
Paul Rudd!! He's so good in this!
Nobody recognize T. I. is in this movie.
My favorite character is actually Hawkeye. I think it's great that he got so much depth in Age of Ultron. It gives a completely different perspective ^^
Edit: I accidentally wrote in German. It's a bit difficult to switch ^^
LOL I saw you and then your comment and had to think for a minute 🤣 I forgot you can speak German, too!
Thor will be back on your top 5 after Ragnarok
Do mice go grr? 😂 you're the best
Kaliwali Awesome Video Today!!🔥🐐🐐💎
Did she say “blipped” right by? 😂
👀🤫
Kali, just a heads up there is someone posing as you on another app, asking people in the comments here to talk on that app. They are even using ai to send voice messages "from you"
“Do mice go gurrr?!??!”
FYI you did miss a fairly big post credit scene
Excuse me, a part of SHIELD. Peggy Carter helped transform the SSR from WW2 into SHIELD, she was one of it's founding members.
Miss the END, end credits scene?
LMAO You got the 2 terms mixed up, Scott was in Prison when we first meet him, then he later escaped from Jail with the suit 😂😅 Which is why he has such a hard time finding a decent job, most places dont want to hire an Ex-Prison Convict because they are associated with committing Real Bad Hardcore Crimes… Most of the time
Oh man. Missed an awesome post credit scene. Recommend googling how many extra bonus scenes for each movie. Some have 1 / 2 or more.
I can't believe I missed this one! i'll be watching it in the intro of next mcu movie!
@@kaliwali awesome. Another reason why you're good at this job.
Yes, from an earlier question. It's really like this for ex cons. Especially felons. Finding a good job is hard enough even without a record. The idea behind it is to force former criminals to re-offend so they'll get locked up again. That's why so little money goes to prisoner rehabilitation and preparation for coming back into society. I'm speaking from experience here. And before anyone comments about committing crimes in the first place, that isn't the issue here. It's continuing to punish those who have already been punished
Ant-man very funny 🤣🤣
You missed one post credit scene, but maybe for the best actually.
You may be remembering the actor who plays Luis from "Interstellar?"
Michael Peña was not in Interstellar, he was however in The Martian
@sorrowschism THAT'S what I meant. 😅
"All along the watchtower!"
👀
Luis should be in your top 5. I could listen to him tell stories for hours!
Also, subscribed. 😁
Guardians of the galaxy movies is my top comedy mcu films then it's the ant man lol, iron man is funny but it's still serious, these ones are serious but alot of humour
9:51 HOLY SHIT, you have me at that Navi mug!!!
Edit: Wait, did you catch the second post-credit scene??
You missed the second credits scene.
Next one 🎉👏👏😊
You missed an end credit scene.
Of course it's only my opinion but I would take Hawkeye out or Captain America out of your top 5 instead of Thor. I always loved Captain America in the comics but like Iron Man said in one of the Avengers movies is that "everything that makes Captain America special comes out of a bottle or tube"(can't remember which))). And you think about it You could give ANYONE a formula to make a supersoldier. The only reason he became a superhero, got someone like Peggy and got a bigger body is because of a formula. Peggy more than likely would never have fell for him if he was in his very skinny form. All of the other heroes are different in abilities they bring Iron Man with technology, Thor being a god, Hawkeye with his skill and Black Widow with her combat skills...Captain America just gets big. Again I loved Captain America in the comics because he was a hero and didn't need his backstory....plus I feel the early Captain America movie was BORING!!!!
Are u blind?! course its peggy!! LOL its literally Hayley Atwell with bad 'elderly' make up!
Your comments always put me on straight attack mode 🤣😂 But I appreciate them all the same 🩷
@@kaliwali glad i could help!! 🤣
And thus did Kali truly discover the injustices of the US legal systems.
I think you missed the scene at the very end of the credits.
You forgot the end credit scene maybe include it in you next reaction? That is if you watched it..😅
I get the bad guy is rich, but what's the purpose of adding a hammer to a Glock? Kinda defeats the purpose of the design.
Are these trailers that you're watching before watching the movie?
Laws are different when it comes to ex cons when it comes to divorce and custody/visitation. Sucks for Scott though for sure
Are you an idiot?
I'm really glad you are supportive of the single ex con Dad and maybe you would be in any case, but most women? Only if he looked like Paul Rudd and was as charming.
You are really chugging along through these! Phase 3 is the best! (and saddest, seriously have tissues on hand for emergencies)
I'm reaaally excited to get into Phase 3 next week! Not excited about the tissue warning though lol
pleaseeee react to ted 1 and 2‼️🙏🏽🙏🏽
Spoiler alert, you're gonna get to see Ant Man again in Deadpool & Wolverine. ;)
There are many companies that will hire ex felons. But they need to disclose it on their application
Call of duty modern warfare 1 2019) call of duty modern warfare 2 (2022) call of duty modern warfare 3 (2023)❤❤❤❤❤
The child visitstion rights shouldn't be locked behind having an aparement etc. Joint custody, sure, but not visitation.
Why does she expect him to pay child support when he doesn't have a job yet.
It is pretty bad how the one mistake can prevent you from getting a job forever, even with a masters degree
He literally flat out said that it was in prison he realized his actions had an affect on his daughter. Meaning through the whole process of his original crime he didn't once think, "how will this affect my daughter?". That is something I don't want around anyone's kids. He messed up and needs the actual consequences of his actions
