2023 Marvel Review

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (7/10):

A fun movie whose ridiculousness only worked precisely because it was a Ant-Man movie. What I loved most about this movie was the healthy, unproblematic depiction of a blended family. Cassie calling Janet and Hank grandma and grandpa… I’m sorry, I’m still not recovered from that. The two minor critiques—Luis and not enough Hope😔

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (7,5/10):

I love Rocket’s little family. They deserved the world. His backstory was beautifully told. I was really curious about how they were gonna deal with Gamora and I’m so glad they did not make her end up with Peter again. I loved the ‘original’ ship, but that was uniquely them. I love how Gamora was able to find a family like Peter did in the first GOTG movie. Plus, yeah, Florence + The Machine. Perfect ending of the movie.

Secret Invasion (8/10):

Unpopular opinion apparently. This gave me major Captain America TWS vibes in terms of action. We got Emilia Clarke (!!!!!), a peak into Fury’s personal life (fucking amazing that his wife was Skrull), and Olivia Coleman (holy shitballs what a character).

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse:

I have not yet watched this… I’m sorry, I desperately wanted to, but when this came out I was dying, writing my BA thesis, so I did not have time and then I kinda forgot… it’s most likely a 10 though!!!

Loki s2 (8/10):

I disliked season 1, so I was really not excited for this. But this season was so good and idk what changed 😭😭😭 I love how Loki had to realize that he didn’t want to let go of his friends but had to if he wanted them to have lives of their own. His smile at the end was all any loki fan wanted—seeing him content.

The Marvels:

Have not watched yet, don’t ask me why, I don’t have a reason.

What if s2:

Haven’t watched either, don’t ask me why, I just don’t care

I am suffering from major Marvel fatigue, but I’m glad they cut back on some stuff and pushed back on projects. From the stuff I’ve watched that came out this year, I liked most. The quality has noticeably gone down, and I feel myself siding more and more with Martin Scorsese, but at least we’re getting more proper action-packed stories (Echo, Deadpool, etc.).

Happy Mission Report Day! ✨

I actually really liked Secret Invasion. It gave me the old MCU vibes like Winter Soldier. It definitely wasn’t of the same quality but still infinitely better than what has been pushed out of the mold recently

The last 2 minutes of Ant-Man contain what is one of the most relatable scenes I've ever watched specially for someone with Anxiety.

You know what, the ridiculousness that is MODOK in Quantumania works. Idc what anyone says, only an Ant-Man movie could have pulled that off and it did.

They even gave Cassie her first inspirational hero moment😭

The main thing I absolutely love about the Ant-Man movies is the concept of an unproblematic family. No toxic environments, no useless fights, just simple understanding. Not to say that they don’t have their issues, but at the end of the day they’re still an extremely supportive family.

Quantumania shows that. Hank and Janet talking for the first time about their partners since she returned involved simple understanding and logic. At one point these two people realized they weren’t gonna see each other again and so they tried something else. It made sense. No drama was made out of this (props to the writers).

Cassie fits so easily into the van Dyne family. She calls Hank and Janet grandpa and grandma??!!! Shut up, I need a few business days to recover from that. They love her without question and treat her as their own while also being respectful towards her actual mother (and her stepdad which we also saw in the first two movies).

I realize that there is something idyllic about this concept of a perfect family, but it’s still heartwarming to see these kinds of dynamics once in a while instead of the usual drama. Quantumania (and the other two antman movies) are just brilliant in their ridiculousness and the way this family interacts with each other complements the insanity of the plot.
