Ant-man and the Wasp · 8:03pm Jul 27th, 2018
Just came back from Ant man and the Wasp (if you couldn't tell by the title). I really enjoyed it and if you enjoyed the first Ant man, you'll probably enjoy this one too. Behind the break some random details and spoilers I feel like talking about.
So yeah, the movie was hilarious, they got really creative with the shrinking and growing and lots of brick jokes. My mother especially enjoyed Baba Yaga. My favourite was Luis on truth serum.
My biggest concern when going in was Evangeline Lilly as Hope van Dyne as Wasp. I didn't really like her in Ant man. But I liked her in this movie. And man, she can fight. Every battle with her was awesome. And Paul Rudd is the best Janet/Wasp. Jokes aside, you just can't compete with the Wasp from the Avengers: Earth Mightiest Heroes cartoon, just look at her:
Although she was probably the most useless member. I still love her.
I was also surprised to see Ghost as this movie's antagonist. I think the only time I saw this character was in that french CGI Iron man cartoon. Definitely very high on my characters I never expected in the MCU list. But they made good use of her. Again proving that you don't need to threaten half of the world for a dramatic climax.
Speaking of:
Goddammit, Thanos!
It hit Hope, Janet and Hank. And Scott is stuck in quantum space. How is he supposed to join the Avengers for the final battle? At least I hope he does
I'll probably even update my Infinity War death list, just because I like to be accurate.
