I remember there being two main reasons for the marvel fatigue finally setting in and making me just unwilling and unable to watch this movie
A : The psychedelics started becoming tiring around Multiverse of Madness. The disappointment w Wandaβs arc paired with the frankly pointless plot overall of that movie, really primed the way for just filling my fractal psychedelic woowoo visuals capacity cup.
B : I really liked the plot, setup and character of Kang in Loki and I think it was around this time that controversy around the actor came to light, as a result of which it was announced that this whole plotline was gonna see⦠shifted priorities. Because of how much I loved Loki, i was really disappointed.
Anyhooo, here I am tho, finally beginning QM (no way im typing allat again n again)
Spoilers below for Antman QMania {~.~}
I dont like squiggly, slimy, fungy, weird watery shit. I am more uncomfortable than i thought possible (i also made the mistake of watching it on my parents 84 fucking inch surround sound so it really is my bad)
I REALLY DO NOT LIKE SUCH SQUIRMY SQUIGGLY CREATURES
Quantum people? Cmoooooonnn r u kidding me? The novelty wore off after seeing such shi in ragnarok
So quantum people AND infinity stones for a head people
This is like really really really really really bad Shang Chi
What is this weird mix of ragnarok, dune and avatar type shii
Ok my fear and underwhelm is now suddenly⦠hard and heavily amused skepticism since he DRANK THE OOZE o.O

That second antman autobiography is gonna FLY off the shelves
Theres a lot of this type going around Indian cinema these days and the last place i expected to find such a movie was in a marvel lineup. The one where really fucking horrible shit stuff happening to real people in real life is too political to address so it gets represented by vaguely similar caricatures. You get the dopamine hit of the righteous fight won right there in the theatre, so your just anger dies and you can scroll away from the news with a slightly lighter conscience than you do every other day.
Its pathetic and this was the last place i expected it but i guess the world hasnt changed that much in 3 years. I also doubt anyoneβs getting any dopamine from this.
God there is some truly fucking revolting visual and audio in this fucking circus movie fuck my life Bill fuckin Murray just slurped up a fucking octopus baby
I like the light saber for rope things
The irresponsibly of giving a child a suit. But then ig he gave it to scott and that wasnt a v responsible decision either. Ig i expected better from Hope at least.
DARREN?! Wow Im gonna need a sec to stop dying and process this. LMFAOOOOOO
Ok multiverse canonically real.
Which kang is this is the question
Kangβs shipβs energy core looks like a version of the kree signal device from Agents S3 that SquidWard uses in Failed Experiments yes i remember all the names of all 100 smmin episodes of that show tyvm
The Janet Kang story is giving Jemma-Will ngl they totally copied the plot
I am TIRED of marvel copying from itself that too from one of its own underdog under appreciated underrated properties Agents of SHIELD WALKED so Wandavision could run smh
Damn he is a good actor, at least in this role
The ACTING
At the very least this movie doesnt have the marvel movie problem of a weak villain. Thanks to the buildup, Kang is a legitimately and fairly juicy opponent. The conflict and resistance is legitimate at least, but i think the storytelling couldβve definitely been better.
Sheβs got that kristen stewart in twilight thing going on
Whatβs coming? Me. A lot of me
They really did not think these through
That blackmail/torture thing was not as intimidating as it should have been. Trust. I didnt buy it :/
Probability storm is one of the best fucking things ive ever seen. Fucking hilarious. For the man who is uncertain of every breath every step. This is genius. Fr. Im in splits. LMFAO
Okay now i see the REAL mindfuck.
Not hank pym loving scotts book and being so proud of him and scott being so happy imma cry ngl
This movie shoulda been called Kang and the balloon animal buildings
Scotts speech was kinda F its almost like they had no money to hire writers
Its never too late to stop being a dick wowwww i mean thereβs spidermans power and responsibility speech and then thereβs donβt be a dick darren
I dont think ive ever been as speechless as i am now. Darren the avenger. May he rest in poop. A lot has certainly happened scott
I dont wanna harp on about this but this race to get to the portal is ONCE AGAIN giving Will vs Fitz at the end of season 3 ep 10 i believe called Maveth
Ok lot of nice timey wimey adventures and that hug reminds me we barely got any scott hope together. They have nice chemistry but we got zero in this movie. Big thumbs down :/
I dont understand. Scott doesnt like cake anymore? Huh? I also see the side effects of the probability storm. He has very few definitives holding him down to this reality my poor dude. However, it is true that they didnt fucking show shit about Kang after he exploded to the size of a sun? Ish? You know what? Its probably fine. This movie really tried to remain unserious. The first half hour and the last two minutes succeeded and the rest was a weird tense mess.
Welp thats a lot of kangs.
Ngl that post post credits scene was more interesting to me than the whole movie. Sorry scott ily paul but yeah. Nothing beats morbius my favorite jet ski salesman

Do you have any theories on how you think Loki will be introduced in Doomsday? Like which characters he might be with or if they will (hopefully these arenβt spoilers for anyone) just cut to him sitting alone like in Loki S2 finale
I've honestly been thinking one of the first people he'll meet is Scott due to their shared connection with Kang (even though they completely abandoned that) and he'd probably offer a nice segway into the rest of the new Avengers because they can be a handful, whereas Scott is fairly chill and a bit of a rule breaker himself, he'd probably get him on his podcast or something lmao
It's subjective (as is all art) but in my opinion, the worst is Antman and the Wasp: Quantumania. All that shrinking and growing without a half-decent sense of scale and Antman himself felt sidelined.
Having just finished rewatching Loki (dear goodness it's such a phenomenal show!) and recently rewatching Quantumania, I have to say I'm satisfied with the Kang storyline ending here.
Now, I wouldn't have minded more of the Kang story. However, Loki managed to end things on a very high note AND in a way where Kang has already pretty much been taken care of. Even Scott's unease at the end of Quantumania about something worse coming can be chalked up to Kang somehow having played a role in stopping Doom, and now Kang being defeated means that won't happen (I doubt Marvel will actually explicitly address that dangling plot thread from Quantumania but they could if they wanted to).
So basically, I have no issue with the "Big Villain" role being handed off at this point.
(Speaking of Quantumania... any chance the Kang variant Mobius mentions at the very end of the series as causing "a little ruckus on a 616 adjacent realm, but they handled it, so..." is referring to the events in 616's quantum realm?? I tried but couldn't clearly read the file B-15 was holding π )

I've been sort of fixated on David Dastmalchian recently because he's great but the one downside is it's kind of ruined one of my favorite horror stories for me
Because like imagine Veb, with his obsession with holes, finding out about Amigara Fault and going there to see if one of the holes is for him. But because he's made of goo, he doesn't even really need one. He could just slip inside the mountain and slide on through and instead of getting spaghettified like the humans, he can just recoagulate once he's reached the other side.
When he comes out, he's all excited like a little kid going down the slide at a playground, running back to the other side like "Again! Again!π"
To be clear I'm not mad about this because this image is so adorable to me but I'll probably never be able to find that manga scary again
