Love this. Perfect reminder of one of the many, many reasons "Jurassic World" can't hold a candle to "Jurassic Park."

I liked Antman mainly due to Paul Rudd, but yeah, the fate of Hope and the Wasp -- a founding Avengers member in the comics, no less -- was wretched. They couldn't even hire an actress for the Wasp so that she could at least have had a face. Scott Lang being supposedly expendable inside, I truly do not get the logic as to why a trusted, high-ranking official like Hope couldn't have brought the entire farce down before the movie even started, but then, comic book logic doesn't work in real world or real woman rules.

F: Maybe the sequel will have Charlie Day as Eric O'Grady, quickly do his origin, have him shrink down to that level and save The Wasp, have it revealed that the Wasp's actress is Kaitlin Olsen (because a big screen Always Sunny pairing might be the thing to have Charlie Day WORK for audiences) and then reveal: It's December 23 and Eric O'Grady has a letter from a nephew. Cue opening credits. Basically, it's a way to justify a cinematic Ant-Man's Big Christmas adaptation, which absolutely CANNOT be done with Scott Lang. (Yes, I know it's introducing a THIRD character going by the moniker Ant-Man, but it kind of has to be done. Scott's too NICE to let anything like what has to happen in Ant-Man's Big Christmas fly, but if they're going to do "first story is the explanation, second is the iconic recent tale" format (think First Avenger followed by Winter Soldier) for this franchise, that's the only real choice.)
