Well hell. What are they seeing and hearing? Light waves are 400 nm wide while atoms are 0.2 nm

I can imagine an Alien like Thor or a serum that makes someone super strong as plausible.
But spitting in the face of the basic laws & properties of physics just ain't right. Screw you Marvel
I'm never watching another Ant-Man movie.

That's the physics we think we know in this dimension of this universe.

Which of you is this?

They also had two Star Wars decals.

oof that 1st one

The very first time they go subatomic Scott is kinda half-conscious and the sound and visuals are all whacked out. It was a neat bit of restraint.

So of course the subsequent movies they threw all that out and the quantum realm became a slightly weird version of the regular realm... Also known as the real world, I guess.

my apologies if this has been posted before but holy crap why wasn't this left in the final product? also im actually not sure which film this was deleted from....

edit: video plays when you click the link it's one of those pop up short clips....after thinking about it looks like its a deleted scene from spider man: far from home.

It's from Far From Home.

They wanted to get him to Europe faster.

Spider-man beating a bunch of non-descript bad guys didn't really move the plot. I think him saying he has to do their jobs was in one of the trailers.

Ha, I didn't have time last night to post all the reactions that dropped after the premiere, but this pretty much sums them up. Not super encouraging...

Seeing some interesting #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania first reactions tonight.

The usual people who love Marvel are giving it love which I anticipated.

BUT I'm also reading some mixed to not pleased reactions from colleagues I trust. 🤔

Seeing it next Monday night. We'll see. pic.twitter.com/YiN7xWKgzz

Usually Marvel movies are, like, 95% praise from these premieres. Even the so-so ones. But there was a *noticeable* lack of universal enthusiasm/praise last night, which doesn't bode well at all.

Crap. Was really hoping they'd blow it up to kick off phase 5

Don't get me wrong, a lot people still seemed to like it. Just every once in a while you can kind of read the tea leaves a bit after these premieres.

Honestly, I've been getting some real Thor: The Dark World vibes from the trailers. These reactions kind of confirm this for me.

Well that sucks. They have been setting it up like the next End Game, I hope it's at least on par with BP2.

Seems like people think of it more like an episode of Rick and morty than the finale of a trilogy

Is that a bad thing?

I skimmed a bunch of these. They all rave about Kang, it's definitely different than the other two Ant-Mans, and it's not an Avengers / high-stakes film. Those are my main takeaways.

This should never, ever be something someone has to qualify/excuse for a movie. Movies can set up sequels yet still be complete stories unto themselves. None of them should ever feel like "episodes."

#AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is truly EPISODE 1 of what is sure to be a crazy cinematic series. You have to enjoy this movie more as an episode of something greater rather than it’s own standalone film that concludes a trilogy.

How can a man who changes time somehow not be high stakes? I've wondered that since we found it was Kang btw... But the trailers beg that question too.

I'm guessing it's a flawed story/premise that they can't overcome.

I imagine they defeat Kang but not for good, so it's like… round 1, but nothing changes really? Not sure.

I think you're reading way too much into that tweet. That's not what he's saying at all. These premiers ALWAYS make for inflated, over-the-top reactions from the usual suspects, caught up in all the hype and red carpet glamor, etc, who are invited to said premiere *by* Disney. So he's essentially saying, "take the glowing reviews from the people at the premiere with a grain of salt," same as I try to qualify every time I post reactions from these things. Concurrently, whenever Disney has these premieres, they've started holding simultaneous screenings for other press/critics, at regular old press screenings, across New York and other parts of LA. When the movie's good, often, reactions from those screenings match the enthusiasm from the premiere screenings. But when a Marvel movie is somewhat of a dud, or a bit flawed, the non-premiere reactions usually aren't as glowing, show some holes, etc. And Rocha is simply differentiating between those two in this instances.

IDK, I think I will still go see the Ant Man Movie.

Ha, same. None of this changes my plans. Tickets were already bought anyway.

That's not setting a real high bar. BP2 was not good.

Yes. Like a step above a good Netflix movie.

The reviews I've read seem like they're painting Quantumania as a bad to ok sci-fi flick with some odd visuals. I strangely enjoy those kind of movies.

I'm thinking I'll skip the theaters, and enjoy this one on a rainy day with some popcorn at home.

Has read a few of the episode scripts…

For those keeping score at home, CAPTAIN MARVEL is essential viewing before watching the deftly-scripted SECRET INVASION, which really works as the sequel to that film.

I think I just fine the whole Twitter movie review industry incredibly flawed and ridiculous.
