Ant-Man and The Wasp Ant-Man and the Wasp News and Speculation Thread - Part 1

Killmonger on the other hand has been getting wild praise from the early reactions.

 

[JB-the-Hunter]

Marvel is on a great villain streak with Ego, Vulture, Hela and Killmonger (apparently). I'm sure they'll be able to keep it up with Ghost, Yon-Rogg (plus Queen Veranke maybe?) and especially Thanos.

 

[chamber-music]

does Burch come from the comics?

Yes.

Burch was chairman of Cross Technologies in the comics.

I'm over a week late commenting on it, but I thought the trailer was pretty cool. The first Ant-Man was one of my favorite MCU films so I'm definitely looking forward to what they bring to the table this time around.

I think Goggins will deliver in the role he has so the good villain streak can continue.

I, wholeheartedly, concur

 

[flickchick85]

Just realized Goggins has two high-profile villain roles this year. Might be the next Mark Strong, lol.

 

[JB-the-Hunter]

I wonder how Burch will differ from other business-type mastermind MCU villains like Stane, Hammer, Pierce, Killian, etc.

Nice.

Strong, Goggins and Mendelsohn who seems to strictly play villains now

Its crazy that Mark Strong still isn't as big a star as he really should be.

 

[squeekness]

He was good in the first Sherlock Holmes movie with Downey Jr.

 

[flickchick85]

He's good in everything.

 

[Kane52630]

Goggins will always be Lee Russell to me.

When the trailer played before BP people clapped and seemed excited. Despite Ant-Man likely not being in IWs he won't be sidestepped by fans.

Hate to get off topic, but did they play the Deadpool and Venom trailers by chance? I'm curious about the reactions to those as well.

 

[Iceman]

Going to be really good being able to wind down to this with all the epic Avengers stuff going on in the background.

I saw Civil War in a matinee audience full of kids and along with Spider-Man, Ant-Man got the biggest audience reactions. I think the near future if the big four Avenger actors retire their roles is in good hands.

Kevin Feige talks about Michelle:

http://www.vulture.com/2018/02/kevin-feige-on-okoye-captain-marvel-and-michelle-pfeiffer.html

“I don’t want to say too much, but I will say that’s she’s every bit as iconic and amazing in this part as you would imagine,” he said. “People ask sometimes about movie stars and star power and who’s the most exciting person to be around, and the truth is that once you get to know them as people, they don’t feel like movie stars — everybody is just a super-impressive human. But in a room full of movie stars, Michelle Pfeiffer rises to the top.” Feige recently corralled all of the actors from his films into one big tenth anniversary photo, and it wasn’t Robert Downey Jr. or Chris Pratt who had everyone turning their heads. “You can tell how big Michelle is,” said Feige, “because all the other movie stars are going, ‘Is that Michelle Pfeiffer over there?’”

I got both as well as IW. I didn't get AM unfortunately. Kids laughed at DP 2, no reaction to Venom really.

That's a shame. I'm really hoping this film can get some positive traction before the next trailer.

I am looking forward to it, but that teaser didn't exactly get people excited unfortunately.

Are you guys saying that "V" is not doing a good job of selling itself to audiences?
