Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)

These movies are so underrated and Rudd is fantastic. Michael Peña was a great sidekick for him. Will be bummed if he doesn’t show up.

Dude Luis fast talking and awkward jimmy woo make these films. Yeah their bad guys are forgettable and the stakes aren't all that high but a film without the 3 ex cons or the fbi agent isn't worth seeing. nobody watches these for the action sequences or set pieces (that's reserved for the team up avenger films)

Clearly you didn’t see that amazing set piece in Antman 1 when they derailed a train

Beat effects I’ve ever seen

indeed

gotta admit, the people putting trailers together for the mcu have been pretty great. especially lately where the trailers are significantly better than the movies

well, they edit in certain clips that dont ever actually show up in the theatrical releases in order push a false narrative that makes you want you to see the movie. its a scam.

i mean, that's not a new concept. deleted scenes have been put in trailers for as long as i can remember. granted, end game specifically put in edited scenes that were never meant to be in the movie, but i don't know if i would call it a "scam"

also stop being the fun police

yeah, i know, nobody wants to know how the sausage is made. yeah, they do this in other films, but the MCU is probably the worst offender of this. this board has had discussions for pages over shit in MCU trailers thats not in the films and thats by design. we all thought Dr Strange in the No Way Home trailer was a variant of him because he acted so out of character in the trailer. it sparked our interests and made us want to see the film even more. great marketing, but its a dirty trick and what i would call misrepresentation. a scam.

Isn't it more like the final cut of the movie isn't finished then the trailer is released?

In most cases, yes. It's usually a case of showing whatever's finished enough to put out there, but there are specific mcu movies that put in shots that were never meant to be in the movie. Infinity war showing hulk fighting in wakanda that narratively couldn't have happened, endgame removing fat Thor from scenes, stuff like that.

Ossoi said:

Are those two examples because otherwise they'd be spoilers? E.g. Hulk scared to fight and fat thor being a weight loss thread moron?

Yeah basically. I mean I get why they did it, they wanted to show certain "cinematic" moments to get people hyped, but didn't want to give away certain plot points. I can see why that might bother people but ultimately I can't be offended because trailers that give away the movie are awful

The movie used time travel to resolve the conflict. Not like that was something new or worth keeping secret. Oh wait. I know why they kept it on the down low.
