As we were walking home we decided to stop by the movie theater and checkout showtimes and what do you know, Ant-Man was just about to screen in the theater with the fancy schmancy sound equipment!
The movie was a delight—though whop knows how much better it would’ve been had Edgar Wright actually directed it—and proved that Marvel Studios is truly on one hell of a streak. This is two summers in a row they’ve taken marginal characters and turned them into blockbuster superheroes though excellent casting and strong storytelling (and just enough wit to be funny without winking so hard the hero topple into the territory of the silly). No spoilers from me, but there are lots of inside nods to stuff even I’d forgotten about from my younger years buried between boxes and boxes of comic books, while still pushing along the larger Marvel Universe narrative that’s slowly steamrolling towards Civil War.*On the way home I caught myself marveling to myself (no pun intended, seriously) about just how far superhero movies had come. And how I’m still honestly surprised that they’re being executed so perfectly. Which probably shouldn’t surprise since I’d suspected all along the reason many superhero flicks flopped was because they either couldn’t take the subject matter seriously, or changed it too drastically in an attempt to take it seriously. Which just doesn’t make sense when you consider that comic books—sequential art—are almost already ins storyboard form. So previous movies that failed? That’s the fault of Hollywood thinking they know better than the artist that made the strories of these superheroes, um, the hero of their endeavors, in the first place. That’s probably why Marvel threw up their hands and just said, “Fuck it all, we got this.”
And boy do they.
*A storyline I look forward to watching unfold since it occurred after I’d moved on from being a regular comic book reader.

Click losmovies watch movies online free now. The after-credits of Ant-Man and The Wasp did not make much sense.
In fact, Ant-Man and The Wasp has an after-credits footage. It follows what the mid-credits reveal to Scott Lang's empty house. There was only the great anger the superhero used to deceive the authorities, making them think he was still in the house.
The last line of the film is "Ant-Man and The Wasp will return?", With a question mark as "tantalizing" the audience. However, they are sure to re-emerge as the last words shared by the cast, or series of shots revealed from Avengers 4's studio suggested. Evangeline Lilly - the main heroine of the blockbuster Super Hero Marvel - Ant Man is still the face is not well known in Hollywood. Playing as Hope Van Dyne in the first film in 2015, the 38-year-old actress begins to impress audiences with a strong, cinematic image on the big screen.
Evangeline Lilly was born in Canada to a family of civil servants. Her father was a home economics teacher, and her mother was a cosmetic salesman and ran a gym. As a result, since childhood Evangeline has become accustomed to sports such as skating, skiing, mountain climbing and regular bodybuilding. In addition, she is fluent in French.
Evangeline Lilly not only owns the ideal body but also looks beautiful and wild personality. From a young age, she was not as feminine as many other girls who were hyperactive, often taking part in social activities. At the age of 14, Evangeline lived in huts lurking in the jungles of the Philippines with a volunteer crew. Evangeline once said, "I like going out, that's where I feel most happy."
