I heard from one of my coworkers that it is a really good film. I guess I have to go see it now. Didn't wanna look at a hero named ya know...Ant Man but I better try it before I knock it.


Well Ant-Man is an older Marvel character and incredibly important in the Marvel Lore. The name is no different than comic book characters like Iron-Man, Batman, or Spider-Man. It's just a lot of non-comic book reader or non-hardcore Marvel fans don't know the character well and the ring to it hasn't grown on them yet. There are far worse superhero names. Superman probably being the worst of them all XD

Either way.... The funny thing is Scott Lang who is Ant-Man in the movie is actually the 2nd person to become Ant-Man after he inherits that right from Hank Pym. Scott makes fun of the name "Ant-Man" and calls it stupid quite a few times, including asking if he can have a name change or if he can go back to prison. LMAO!
