Buzzed

With a vanishingly small amount of broadcast TV left on the DVR, it suddenly struck me that "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania" had made its way to Disney+. Like a lot of people (I suspect), we hadn't gone to see it in the theaters, because we figured it would be along before too long, and now was the time to finally watch the film.

I liked it a lot. Gretchen would have liked it more if it hadn't been quite so dark and low contrast, a trend in film that she's *very* tired of. It reminded me a lot of "Star Wars", which I suppose shouldn't be a surprise.

But I have always been fond of Hank Pym and Paul Rudd's take on the younger Scott Lang Ant-Man continues to be delightful. I also really enjoyed the family dynamic.

And I'm told that this is setting up the next series of Marvel films, although that's become a bit more complex due to Jonathan Majors' legal problems. We'll see how that all sorts out.

In any case, it's definitely worth watching. Especially if you've already paid for it. :)

I'm a bit behind on the MCU. I just saw the first Spider-Man movie, the one with the Green Goblin, this week.
