That's a badass poster and suit. I really hope this movie ends up being good. But I have no idea what the hell it could be about.
Also he and communicate with ants and has them do cool shit. Like recon missions. In the latest issue of Daredevil they had Ant-Man
He's a lot cooler then he sounds.
He can grow and shrink in size and has has the proportional strength of an art at whatever size he's at. So just imagine how strong a giant ant would be.

shrink down and go into Foggy Nelson's body to help stop cancer cells from spreading.

I thought Edgar Wright was no longer directing this?
Lol, I love you

Too bad it won't be the best that it can be now with the gawd being replaced by some flunkie

that doesn't answer the question lol that describes spiderman, who would get curb stomped by pym btw.
I hope they have some killer footage when the time comes, because as it stands it will be an uphill battle to convince people I know to take a movie with a guy who rides ants seriously. Not even throwing shade on the character, I just feel it's a harder sell no matter how much they like superhero movies. I'm curious about how this will develop anyway.
:lol

Yeah it will be far worse than it could have been but still Edgar wright storyboards a good portion of his movies in preproduction and I read somewhere that they'd be using some of the scenes he planned
So there could be some inventive stuff in here
Scust at marvel shitting on him after he did so much work for it though, no respect for Feige and co tbh

When he shrinks he still has the strength of a human. So if he punches you in the balls as Ant Man...it's going to hurt.
Edit - Does Giant Man retain human strength or is it increased?

As disappointed as I am, I feel the whole 'Marvel is evil' thing in this situation might be a bit crazy. After everything the MCU has done and the directors they've had doing vastly different films, maybe it just didn't work out as opposed to Feige being a dick.
No he gets stronger

Trust in Marvel. They know what they are doing.
I just think Wrights vision wasn't the same as Marvels.

"No respect" was a joke but I also think there's no room for creative freedom in the mcu. It all feels like it's by committee. It's giving the fans what they want which is cool but I just want some good movies, not middling stuff that just manages to hit the 'comic book checklist'
And it was also why I was so amazed by iron man 3. That's the power of Rdj, he brought black in and probably strongarmed Disney into letting him do whatever the hell he wanted
I wish wright had that bargaining power, it would have given us a genre masterpiece

Too strange they said.
Looks like a TV show, they said.
This is far from a home run but at this point I honestly have to pretty much assume Marvel knows what they are doing, until they screw up.

Kinda reminds me of Kamen Rider.

yeah. I think that after all the time that passed, so much had happened in the MCU that Wrights Ant-Man needed to conform to in order to line up with past, present and future happenings, that Wright just felt that it took too much away from what he originally set out to do. Had he made the movie back in Phase 1 like it was originally set up to do, then we might have seen that movie as, or very close to how he had originally envisioned it.
I don't think there was really a bad guy in this scenario, just Marvel needed it to be something now that it didn't need it to be before.

Isn't he supposed to be a thief?
What's he doing with all those big-ass, bright-red night-lights glued to his Tron fetish-suit?

That's the thing, my acquaintances weren't familiar with GOTG either and none of them were interested at first. The recent trailers and overall hype made it much easier to sell. It isn't that hard to make an action adventure in space look hype though, I'm looking forward to seeing if they can do the same with Ant-man trailers. It can go either way imo, this poster itself has a tokusatsu vibe that doesn't roll with many people. There was a proof of concept video a while ago with the character doing some crazy shit while fighting guards that looked dope, but I think that was when Edgar Wright was still involved, not sure.
Oh my.

Wait, why is Marvel releasing this one in June, right after Avengers 2 (and heck, Avengers 2 will still be in theaters).
Shouldn't this be coming out in late 2015, or is there three Marvel films next year?

Looks like only two movies in 2015.
May 1, 2015 — “The Avengers: Age of Ultron”
July 17, 2015 — “Ant-Man”
Edit - If it bombs at least Avengers 2 will make a trillion dollars to make up for it.

It is actually releasing on July 17th, 2015. 2.5 months after Age of Ultron.

If only they had the guts to have Jackman wear it on film for 15 min
Maybe in the sequel?

I'm glad he's also wearing his helmet.
I'm so tired of superhero movies being scared of being comic movies. Let the characters have their costumes, just tone them down to fit better. Avengers Captain America's costume was fantastic minus the awful designed helmet(why no chinstrap?). Hawkeye on the otherhand looked bland and boring.

Would probably collapse under its own weight.

2 months still isn't enough, I don't know. I feel like they're going to delay it but who knows. I really do wonder why they're rushing it out.
Pym Particles.
Didn't Thor and Cap 1 come out 2 months from each other too?
Sounds possible. Wright probably wanted something that wouldn't fit within the MCU. I'm sure if there wasn't an MCU then he'd be able to pull of whatever he damn well pleased. But then we wouldn't have the awesomeness that is the MCU. Makes sense that Marvel and Feige would have more control seeing as how they have to make all the movies fit within their shared universe.

Indeed they did. Welp, guess it's not the weird after all. Still, movie feels rushed. Perhaps a delay would do it good but what do I know. It could actually be far into development. Is Pym going to appear in Avengers 2? It'd be good to give him a bit of set up before putting him on his own movie.
