    You never know, they might have completely scrapped the idea of Hank Pym being Ant-Man in the 1960's and Scott Lang being Ant-Man in the 21st century, and went with a completely different story. After all, they did write a couple of drafts of the script.

    They'll figure out a way. As you said, no matter what they do, it won't be 100% faithful to "the comics" (whatever the hell that idiot cop-out claim means), so some group of fans will be disappointed. Which speaks more to the ridiculousness of fans than it does the filmmaker's efforts. They'll do the best they can to make it faithful, or at an absolute minimum reference the history of the characters, as Spiderus Prime above me said. They could do something like have Hank Pym and his wife Jennifer Van Dyne in the 1960's, and then have her daughter, Janet Van Dyne, be in a relationship with Scott Lang, a scientist who is continuing Hank Pym's work in the present day. It's not exactly how the characters are usually portrayed, but hey, it's enough to show that they tried. After all, even the likes of Iron Man, TDK, Avengers and so on changed similar things. No reason why Ant-Man can't do the same.

    That...actually looks pretty sweet. I was worried about them starting phase three with Ant Man, and while not all of that worry is gone, I'm more confident about this movie's chances at the box office. Should be interesting to see which of the already established characters will make appearances in this. You just know there'll be at least one showing up at some point. Since Tony is supposed to be making an appearance in GotG, I kinda hope it's Cap that get's a bit in Ant Man.

    I could see Banner(Hulk) showing up in an Antman movie.

    Been dying to see the test footage! Looked great, love the costume, and the slow motion really works. Can't wait for this movie.

    Would be interesting, but I would want to see another solo Hulk movie made before Banner shows up in another character's movie. Especially since Ruffalo hasn't done one yet.

    Personally I think Hulk should stay as a supporting character. Solo hulk films don't seem to do too well.

    That's cause they never let him Talk
    in 3 movies the hulks lines are
    "Hulk Smash"
    leave Me alone"
    "Hulk smash"
    and 'Puny God"
    I may have left off a line or two, but it wasn't much more.
    He needs more than grunts. In the comics Hulk talks, in the cartoon, Hulk talks, Just because they pulled it off in the Bixby series doesn't mean you can keep not having hulk talk.
    The hulk works cause he talks and the most popular comics staring him TALK!.

    ^^ I don't think that's why solo Hulk movies fail. The general public has a difficult time taking the Hulk seriously (as do I) so when they try basing a whole film around the character, the tone of the movie is usually very emotional/dramatic/gritty, which is kinda corny for a movie about a giant angry green guy who yells "Hulk Smash!" all the time. Ruffalo perfected Banner in Avengers by making the character both serious and comedic at the same time, but that's mostly because he was around other superheroes and the focus of the film wasn't on Banner's mental battle with the hulk.

    In both of Hulks movies, he was a fugitive on the run. They should try actually making him a super hero, see how that works out.

    Yeah, I think that Banner or Stark would work best for cameoing in an Ant-Man movie. They're all scientists in one form or another, so it'd make sense.

    My vote's for Tony, because I just really want the end-credit scene of Ant-Man to be of Tony and [insert Hank Pym or Scott Lang here] in a lab together with blueprints for their new experiment: ULTRON. :ev:
