   I finally watched "Ant Man And The Wasp: Quantumania" last night. I put it off for a loooong time because the most recent Thor and Dr. Strange movies were pretty bad and the reviews for Quantumania were lackluster. Whooo...I'm sorry I didn't watch it sooner. It's basically an assault of the weird, wild, corny, schlocky style that's Marvel at its finest. I'm sorry to have taken out my frustrations with other films on that one!

     @roadriverrail Awww, I adored Love and Thunder. But I also view it as being told by an Unreliable Narrator (Korg) to a group of kids.

     Also? Goats.

     @mcmcgreevy I know a lot of people really loved it, and I can imagine how a person of good taste could. It just was like drinking a beer from a glass with soap residue on it for me. And Russell Crowe's Zeus, and much of the scenes surrounding him, just did not work for me at all.

     But it's all good. I know the reviews of Quantumania were mixed, but I was super into it.

     @roadriverrail Same. My biggest complaints were the under-usage of Bill Murray and Evangeline Lily, but there was a lot to enjoy. Unlike some of the fandom, I have found things to like in all of the Phase 4 and 5 content so far.

     @mcmcgreevy More Bill Murray would have been fun for sure. I've found the current phase to be...kinda uneven, and definitely, when you add in all the streaming shows, there's too much content for me to avoid fatigue. But I'm glad when I can find something new to like.
