Not for me. Too much quantum time travel hand-waving just magically solving problems.

- muzani 6y agoActually, I thought this was the clever part. If you pay attention, they created a lot of other problems as a side effect. It wraps up all the existing plots, and introduces new ones. There's a lot of hints on what went wrong with time travel, and if you read up on Marvel lore, there are plenty of villains who are able to maneuver time travel better than the heroes.
- soneca 6y agoAnd it created a wonderful narrative device to revisit scenes and references from several other filmes. Marvel movies never positioned themselves to be hard scifi.
- deeeeplearning 6y agoImagine being upset about quantum time travel when the main characters are a Norse God of Thunder, a man that got bitten by a radioactive spider, a lab created super soldier and the main villain is some demi god alien with reality warping powers derived from some rocks in a gold glove...
- ssalazar 6y agoScifi is much more satisfying when it sets up a fantastical world/premises and then keeps an internal consistency as the narrative develops. It’s far less satisfying to force the use of fantastical elements as a crutch for a weak narrative.
- mkl 6y agoExactly. Introducing new things out of nowhere that just happen to be exactly what the characters need right then is poor writing IMHO. It breaks my suspension of disbelief, pulls me out of the story, and makes it much harder to enjoy.

- deeeeplearning 6y agoBut Marvel is a comic book universe not sci-fi.
- ssalazar 6y agoDoes that distinction change the point that I’m making?
- bananamerica 6y agoSure, but in the end of the day it’s a super hero movie. A certain degree of hand-waving is allowed.
- Lewton 6y agoAgreed Also I was so looking forward to how they were gonna manage to track down antman Then it’s a rat ex machina
