if people wanna be excited about Ant-Man, then far be it from me to tell them not to be, I just wish people would stop acting like they don’t know why the rest of us are mad about it.

To be honest, a lot of the people I know *don’t* actually know, and it’s taken some time to explain it to them.  Most MCU fans are casual fans and are not that deep in the fandom and know next to nothing about the comics, so they really don’t have a good grasp on why people are upset– most of them don’t even know that anyone is upset.  Last weekend, I had a very long conversation with a bunch of guys who were self-professed MCU fans and knew everything about the movies and the comic stories of some of the more prominent characters who’ve appeared in the MCU, and they had no idea who Jan even was.  By the time I finished talking to them, they were mortified and disappointed. The fact that people are troubled by Ant-Man is something that’s been kept very tightly confined to comics fans and more serious MCU fans who take the time to be more proactive in their fandom.  It’s something that still needs a *lot* of promotion and publicity– and I’d recommend everyone who IS upset keep talking about it, explicitly and in detail, with clear talking points, because that’s the best way to get the message out.  I wouldn’t just assume that people who are excited for Ant-Man have heard all the reasons– or any reason not to be.  I’ve been very surprised to discover how many people are genuinely clueless, which is why I’ve been trying to be MUCH more public about it.

#can somebody explain?  #this post rants a lot about it but i dont see the reason?  #i mean im dossapointed that its another white man but?  

Happily I’ll explain– that’s exactly what I was talking about, is that I think a lot of people (like you) know people are upset but don’t know why. The original Avengers team in the comics had five characters: Ant-Man, Hulk, Iron Man, Thor, and Wasp.  Four men and one woman (Wasp, AKA Janet Van Dyne).  With Ant-Man, all four original men will have their own solo movies. 

Ant-Man and Wasp were the ones who had the idea to form the Avengers, and Wasp was the one who named the team, as you can see here in Avengers #1:

 Notice who isn’t on that list? Captain America: who now has also had his own solo movie.  He joined the team a little later, in issue #4.  

You know who identified Cap when they found his frozen body?  That’s right, it was the Wasp:

Jan has, over the course of the Avengers title, been one of the most prominent team members and was the longtime leader of the Avengers team, and she’s a significant character in the Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes cartoon TV show, which is where a lot of young kids have been introduced to the Avengers.  

So right now, it’s getting very frustrating and upsetting to a lot of us that the only founding member of the Avengers who isn’t getting a solo movie is also the only woman.  Hank and Jan often worked as a team in the early days, so it even would have been okay to do an “Ant-Man and the Wasp” movie, but there’s a big problem with the fact that all the male characters, and even Cap, who wasn’t a founding member, have gotten solo movies, but the one female character is not getting one.

But it gets worse– because not only is she not getting one, but the plot of the Ant-Man movie is said to use a “tragic accident” to write Jan out of the story– many people think this isn’t a death but a story that gets her trapped in an alternate universe, something that canonically happens to her in the comics.  It doesn’t really *matter* which one it is though because this plot point not only means that a film isn’t planned for her, but that Marvel has essentially constructed a plot that will prevent Jan from *ever* getting a solo movie of her own.  

This is after Joss Whedon fought to include Jan in The Avengers and got her into the storyboards before Marvel made him remove her.  A lot of fans thought she was getting removed because she was going to get a major part in Ant-Man, but she isn’t getting one.  And it’s worse than that, because she has a very small part that, from what we can tell, precludes her ability to ever get a movie of her own.

So this isn’t really about “one more white man” movie, so much as it is a movie that is essentially preventing one of the most important female Marvel heroes from ever getting a solo movie, which is a very big deal to a lot of female fans and parents with children who are fans of Jan from the cartoon.  Which is much more upsetting than just another movie about a white man. 

So glad someone wrote this out.

huh. did not know any of this.
