Ha. My friend pointed out the same thing and that it would look like The Bee if he was upgraded.

I can't wait to see Mahvel's inevitable Punisher.
It's difficult to screw up.

I still want Joe Manganiello as Frank and anyone who disagree's is a poop head.

Off topic : Watched Kabuto earlier this year and I think it has some of the best KR designsDoes remind me of The Bee
Which is preplexing to me, how long did GOTG had between filming wrapping up and the first trailer?

From Wikipedia:
And as we know, the film opened August 1.
So 13 months from start of filming to release.

For Ant-Man:
Release date is set for July 17, 2015
That's 11 months, so 2 months less than Guardians of the Galaxy.
However, given the setting and cosmic nature of GOTG, I imagine Ant-Man should need substantially less post-production since it will presumably have more sets and real filming locations, being set on Earth and everything. Most of the work will probably involve Ant-Man's size shifting.

I bet they started all the CGI and visual effects while waiting on a new director to emerge.
And a lot of the effects look terrible as a consequence.

Good point, that didn't occur to me.
Isn't that just how visual studio effects studios work in general?
best lead rider design in a while
I like Alcide but I can see why basing off of that you would think meh of him.All I've seen of him is Alcide, so... a big meh from me. I'd rather see Karl Urban.
But he said he wanted to play Punisher and for that I'm all for it.
That's kind of the mo for X-Men films at Fox (and FF). The effects in both Wolverine solo movies are trash. The original trilogy isn't much better. Hell Beast still looks like he's on strings in DoFP.
The art/effects team is terrible at Fox, at least for their comic films.

ayy these suits look dope af. i keep getting this feeling that this movie will be too cool. im diggin the art direction in this so far tho.
Indeed. Though I think MK deserves a film over a TV series.
NotTheGuyYouKill

Yeah, I'm really digging this. It has a great retro-futuristic punk feel crossed with a bit of Tron.
I think a TV show would work better for Moon Knight then a film. Watch his sanity degrade further and further as he has to cope with the voices and the insane crimes he has to deal with.

I'm a bit confused by this picture. Is this a baby's head photoshop with dredd's helmet or something

Marvel is nailing it with the wicked headgear. While I'm not a huge fan of Stark's, these are awesome:
Ant-Man can shrink and grow himself and other things without the suit. So can Wasp. The suit is weaponized in addition to their natural abilities.
NotTheGuyYouKill

Looks like weaponized suits, but the suits are really just capable of shrinking and growing. But it looks Yellow Jacket's suit is actually legit weaponized since it's a battle suit. Ant-Man's suit looks more like a prototype experiment.
Edit: But seems like I'm mistaken. J10 above probably knows more than I ^
The kid is wearing a Judge Dredd costume and being a total baller.
Hank Pym discovers a certain kind of particle that can move any mass in and out of another dimension. That dimension is where the mass goes and comes from when shrinking and growing. He infuses the particles with a gas or pills. Eventually he doesn't need the gas anymore and just does it at will.
Yellowjacket is traditionally just Ant-Man's alter ego, not a separate guy.
NotTheGuyYouKill

His powers come from something called 'Pym particles' but someone else can probably elaborate better than I.
Yellow Jacket is actually one of Hank Pym's superhero aliases (he's got a bunch), but in the movie, the main villain (who is a different character altogether) will be known as Yellow Jacket.
Edit: See, I'm super hyped for a movie that I actually know nothing about what it's based on. Thanks J!
Pym as Yellow Jacket:
Hank Pym is actually bipolar and winds up with a bunch of different superhero aliases.

You know, it might an interesting way to tackle Ant-Man's villains: Pym creates all of them.
Yellow Jacket/Cross in this film is Pym's protege. Maybe the next solo film, the villain is someone named 'Goliath' that is also tied intimately to Pym. Then maybe we get a 'Giant Man' or something. So all of aliases in 616 are actually villains he's partially responsible for in the MCU.

and in the last personas appearance, at the end of the film, we find out that all these movies were pym fighting his inner demons, and that none of the films actually happened on some dallas shit

The first rule of Ant-Man club is that we do not talk about Ant-Man club.
Wait. I don't know anything about Pym or Ant-Man, but is he really bipolar (as in manic-depressive), or do you mean that he has/had multiple personality disorder?

Nah. Manganiello for Hercules. Him and Hemsworth bro-ing out on screen and fighting would be awesome.

I'm sure Ant-Man will pop up in Infinity War. Phase 4, hopefully we get another one.
I wonder if we're now gonna start speculating on Phase 4 Marvel flicks.

Yellow Jacket is one of Pym's superhero identities in the comics. In the movie, they decided to make Yellow Jacket a completely different character. Pym has taken on a bunch of identities in the comics, while Scott was only ever the second Ant-Man.
Silly comics, there's no way Henry Pym, a scientist, would be so muscular.
Pym particles did it.

YellowJacket is just the name of the suit I think, I wouldn't be surprised if by the end of the movie the suit is recovered and will worn by someone else, maybe by Pym if Marvel didn't kill him in the movie.
