The trailer starts by pointing out how Ant-Man is a character “everyone likes, but no one really cares about”, then pointing to Paul Rudd, the “cutest Marvel white guy not named Chris.”
While some shots were fired in the Screen Junkies video, the jabs were quite pocket-sized compared to some other episodes of the YouTube series.
Ant-Man is often underutilized compared to his fellow Avengers, and both the character and film’s differing tone indicate that Scott Lang’s just not taken as seriously as Cap or Iron Man.
Honest Trailers can get relentless when it wants to, but for Ant-Man and the Wasp, it pokes fun, but doesn’t vaporize the movie, meaning it does hold up in its eyes.
